One of the boys is holding an empty bucket. Jae Woon is dumbfounded. Wha...? Where is he? No, no, no. Actually, who are these pompous brats?! How dare they...Jae Woon suddenly felt that something is wrong with his body. He had difficulty in moving around and felt extremely sluggish. What is this?! Since when his slender and sturdy body changed into a piggy in just one night?!

Sa mata ng mga mamamayan ng Lungsod ng San Jose, si Cyrus ay isang anino lamang—isang lalaking walang nakaraan, walang ambisyon, at isang "dustang manugang" na palamunin ng pamilyang Sandoval. Sa loob ng tatlong taon, tinitiis niya ang bawat pangungutya, pag-alipusta, at pagmamaliit mula sa kaniyang mga biyenan at sa mapagmataas na pinsan ng kaniyang asawa na si Marco. Ang tanging dahilan ng kaniyang pananatili ay ang kaniyang wagas na pagmamahal kay Claire Sandoval, ang babaeng nagbigay sa kaniya ng tahanan sa kabila ng kaniyang pagiging "basura" sa paningin ng lipunan. ​Ngunit ang lahat ay magbabago nang mahanap siya ni Arturo, ang tapat na alalay ng pinakamayamang pamilya sa buong mundo. Sa isang madilim na eskinita, mabubunyag ang katotohanang sampung taon nang nakabaon: Si Cyrus ay hindi isang pulubi, kundi si Cyrus Villarreal, ang nag-iisang tagapagmana ng Villarreal Global Holdings. Ang kaniyang amnesia ay hindi aksidente, kundi bunga ng isang malupit na pagkakanulo mula sa sarili niyang kadugo na nagnais na agawin ang kaniyang trono. ​Sa halip na agad na magpakitang-gilas, pipiliin ni Cyrus na manatili sa kaniyang low-profile na buhay. Gagamitin niya ang kaniyang katalinuhan, ang kaniyang walang limitasyong yaman, at ang kaniyang mga lihim na koneksyon upang protektahan si Claire at durugin ang mga kaaway nito nang hindi siya nakikilala. Sa pamamagitan ng mga "frontman" sa negosyo, itatayo niya ang isang imperyo sa likod ng mga anino habang nananatiling tagalinis ng sahig sa harap ng mga Sandoval. Ito ay isang mahabang labanan ng talino, estratehiya, at pagtitimpi. Hanggang kailan niya kayang itago ang kaniyang koronang ginto sa likod ng isang basahan? Sa mundong ang lahat ay nasusukat sa pera, si Cyrus ang magpapatunay na ang pinaka-aba ay siya palang Hari na nagmamay-ari ng lahat.

Sebagai kepala keluarga kriminal Valenti, yang dikenal seantero kota sebagai "Il Macellaio" Atlas Valenti adalah sosok yang ditakuti dan dihormati, dengan pikiran strategis yang cemerlang dan rasa keadilan yang tanpa ampun. Tapi di balik wajah yang bersudut tajam dan tatapan mata hijau yang dingin, tersembunyi luka dalam yang tak pernah sembuh. Pada usia tujuh tahun, dia menyaksikan ibunya terbunuh saat melindunginya dari musuh keluarga. Pada usia 29, dia menemukan cinta sejati dalam diri Luna Moretti, wanita yang mampu menghancurkan tembok emosional yang dia bangun selama bertahun-tahun. Mereka diatur untuk menikah guna menyatukan dua keluarga mafia terkuat di kota: Valenti dengan kekuasaan mereka di bidang real estat dan hubungan internasional, serta Moretti dengan kendali mereka atas pelabuhan dan koneksi politik. Namun Atlas jatuh cinta bukan karena kesepakatan melainkan karena kehangatan dan kebaikan yang hanya Luna bisa berikan padanya. Malam sebelum dia berencana untuk melamarnya dengan cincin keluarga kuno, nasib memutar balik, Aisha, saudara perempuan Luna, mengemudi dalam keadaan mabuk dan menyebabkan kecelakaan yang menewaskan calon istrinya. Didesak oleh ayahnya Marcello Valenti dan tuntutan aliansi yang tak dapat dibatalkan, Atlas terpaksa menikahi Aisha, pengantin pengganti yang menjadi sumber kebencian membara baginya. Setiap hari, dia harus menghadapi wanita yang telah mencuri masa depannya, menggunakan kata-kata dan pengabaian sebagai senjata dalam perang psikologis yang dia lakukan. Sementara itu, dia terus menjaga ingatan Luna hidup dengan cara-cara kecil: mengirim bunga lili putih ke makamnya setiap minggu, menyimpan buku agenda dan cincin pertunangan yang tak terpakai di laci mejanya, dan menghindari setiap tempat yang pernah mereka kunjungi bersama. Namun, ketika ancaman dari keluarga saingan mulai mengintai dan kedudukan keluarga Valenti terancam, Atlas harus menghadapi pilihan yang sulit: apakah dia akan terus terjebak dalam kesedihan dan kebencian yang menghancurkan dirinya, ataukah dia akan menemukan cara untuk melepaskan masa lalu dan melindungi apa yang tersisa?

Risa Melia dikenal luas di kalangan elite sebagai "peri kecil". Dia punya bibir merah yang melengkung tipis dan sudut mata yang menggoda. Niko Sutomo adalah pewaris paling cemerlang dari keluarga konglomerat. Dia dingin, sulit didekati, laksana bunga di puncak gunung salju, penuh pengendalian diri dan tahan pada hasrat. Tak seorang pun tahu bahwa dua pribadi yang begitu bertolak belakang ini, di antara gelapnya malam, saling menjerat dalam keintiman. Di kursi belakang mobil yang melaju senyap, di toilet jamuan amal yang sunyi, hingga di depan jendela kaca setinggi langit-langit di kebun anggur pribadi, pinggang Risa dicengkeram erat hingga kakinya melemas. Satu malam panas telah usai, suara air mengalir terdengar lirih dari kamar mandi. Risa bersandar di kepala ranjang, menghubungi ayahnya. “Aku bisa menikah dengan Putra Mahkota Kota Selatan yang katanya sekarat itu untuk menolak bala. Tapi aku punya satu syarat .…” Di seberang sana, kegembiraan ayahnya tak bisa disembunyikan. “Katakan syaratnya. Asal kau mau menikah, apa pun syaratmu akan Ayah penuhi.” “Nanti kita bicarakan saat aku pulang.” Suara Risa terdengar lembut, namun sorot matanya dingin tanpa emosi. Risa menutup telepon dan hendak bangkit untuk berpakaian, sekilas pandangannya jatuh pada laptop Niko di samping ranjang. Layar yang menampilkan aplikasi pesan masih menyala di sana. Pesan terbaru datang dari seorang gadis dengan nama kontak "Dinda". [Kak Niko, ada petir, aku takut ….] Ujung jari Risa bergetar. Tiba-tiba pintu kamar mandi terbuka, Niko keluar dari sana. Tetesan air meluncur dari tulang selangkanya, dua kancing kemejanya terbuka sembarang, tampak dingin dan tenang, terselip sedikit kesan santai dan malas yang memikat. “Ada urusan di perusahaan. Aku pergi dulu,” katanya datar sambil meraih jas. Bibir merah Risa terangkat membentuk senyum tipis. “Urusan perusahaan, atau kamu mau menemui belahan jiwamu?”

While I'm waiting for my vasectomy to start, I see a popular question trending on a forum. "What's the best revenge for a man?" An anonymous answer is upvoted all the way to the top of the comment section. "By stealing everything he's proud of while playing the role of his best friend, of course! To be honest with you, this is how I treat my childhood friend, too. "Before he realizes it, his parents already view me as their biological son. The company has bestowed upon me a position that's superior to his. His wife even gave her virginity to me at the new home he had personally decorated and refurnished. His children are actually mine, and they are super clingy to me! "Because of something I said, his wife made him get a permanent vasectomy. He actually agreed to it. At this rate, that bastard will never be able to have his own children!" Some people are shocked, while others don't hesitate to berate the anonymous poster. But the majority of the commenters are more confused than anything. "What sort of deep-rooted grudge do you have against your childhood friend, though? Why is your revenge going this far?" That poster is surprisingly honest. "Actually, it's nothing much. This friend of mine is superior to me in any way since we were kids. But he's also a smug and arrogant one who doesn't really seem to care about anything at all. "I don't like that attitude of his, so I've come up with this scheme and stolen everything from him. Take now, for example. He's waiting for his vasectomy procedure at the hospital, while I'm hugging his wife right now. In fact, I plan on depleting this entire box of contraceptives!" The latest photo the online poster has uploaded shows a box containing 13 condoms. As for the background, it happens to be my home.

“Congratulations, bitch. Dad sold you to Alpha Arthur. I heard he got into a car accident a few years ago that messed up his face and left him with a limp." She was forced to join the ShadowClaw Pack, expecting the same abuse and torment she had endured before. However, Alpha Arthur, not only handsome but also incredibly attentive, treated her well. She was his breeder, and he was initially attracted by her pure family background and good figure. Their relationship was merely a transaction. Over time, Ophelia gradually won Arthur's heart, and she allowed herself to fall in love with him. Later, she received a check and a farewell. Expecting Ophelia to cry and make a scene, she instead took the check and left decisively. "Mr. Morgan, goodbye forever!" From then on, Ophelia's life turned around completely. She started racing cars, healing the sick, and effortlessly made a name for herself in the music industry. Her stepmother and stepsister still looked down on her, thinking she was a disgrace. Eventually, they came to her, begging, "As long as Miss Clark was willing to save my daughter, I could name my price!" Reflecting on it, they realized that the girl they once pitied was actually a big deal. Even Taylor, who used to defy everyone, became her follower. "Anyone who dared to insult her, I’d break their legs!" Arthur, having lost Ophelia, watched her stunning performance on TV and deeply regretted letting her go. When they met again, she had someone else by her side. With red eyes, he said, "Ophelia, you were mine. Please come back to me." Ophelia smiled coldly, "Sorry, I'm very busy now, no time." Arthur pulled out a diamond ring, "Darling, let's get back together!" The Lycan's Unwanted Mate is created by Claire Wilkins, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.
