Background Kain Putih

"Hei, ini hanya tali!" Anak lelaki itu sudah berkeringat dingin ketika gadis cilik itu telah membuka tali tambang plastik di pergelangan kaki. Wajahnya pucat pasi seperi mayat, tubuhnya gemetar dan napasnya memburu persis seperti seseorang yang sedang berlari jauh. Gadi kecil telah berhasil membuka ikatan di kedua kakinya. "Ini hanya tali bukan ular! Tali ini tidak akan menggigitmu." Gadis cilik bergaun putih dengan pita di surai panjangnya menunjukkan tali tambang plastik tepat di wajah anak lelaki yang sedang ketakutan. Sontak ia beringsut, keringat sebesar jagung mengalir deras di pipi. Wajahnya semakin pucat. "Jangan takut dan tetap diam. Aku akan membuka ikatan di tanganmu," ucapnya menenangkan anak lelaki. Gadis cilik itu beralih ke balik tubuh anak lelaki dan dengan cekatan membuka ikatan di tangan. Tampaknya ikatan itu tidak terlalu kencang, tetapi membuat bekas di pergelangan tangan terutama pada pergelangan kaki. Mungkin karena anak lelaki itu menggerakkan kaki agar bisa terlepas dari ikatan, tapi usahanya justru mengeratkan tali dan membuat bekas di pergelangan kaki. "Siapa namamu?" "Panggil aku Tari." "Tari maukah kau jadi pengantinku?" Ikuti kisah selanjutnya hanya di good novel. Sekecil apapun dukungan yang kamu berikan sangat berarti untuk Author. Salam hangat.

Sementara ia mengumpulkan kesadarannya sejenak, Axton tiba-tiba menarik kakinya membuat ia meluncur ke bawah. “Apa yang kau lakukan?!” pekik Milly histeris. Apalagi saat Axton mulai merangkak ke atasnya, menangkap kedua tangannya, mengikatnya dengan dasi yang sebelumnya diambil di atas nakas. “Menurutmu?” Axton bertanya balik di sela giginya yang menarik kencang simpulan dasi itu, lalu mengaitkannya di ranjang. Milly menggeleng diliputi perasaan panik. “Tidak. Tidak!” Axton kemudian selesai memenjarakan tangannya. Ia mengurung Milly di bawahnya dan menyeringai. “Ibumu pasti begitu menjagamu hm? Ia bahkan menyebarkan berita palsu tentang kematian putrinya sendiri. Buktinya kau masih hidup dan bertahan hingga detik ini.” Milly menatap sengit Axton. Berusaha berani walau matanya hendak melesakkan air mata. “Apa maksudmu?” “Kau dan Ibumu telah bekerjasama menghancurkan keluargaku.” “Aku dan Ibuku bukan orang seperti itu!” “Kenyataannya Ibumu menyembunyikanmu dari seluruh dunia. Kau pun turut andil dengan menggunakan benda ini untuk mengelabui semua orang.” Axton melepas masker Milly kasar dan meremasnya kemudian. Tapi selama beberapa saat ia tercenung melihat keseluruhan wajah Milly. Bukan karena paras kecantikan gadis itu. Melainkan bola mata yang dimiliki oleh Milly. Terkesan mengingatkannya pada seseorang di masa lalunya yang begitu ia rindukan. Dan Axton baru memerhatikan hal itu sekarang. Tapi secepat kilat ia menepisnya. Menanamkan di benaknya bahwa gadis di hadapannya ini adalah putri seorang wanita jalang. “Kau tidak pantas memiliki bola mata yang indah,” bisik Axton dingin. “Apa?” Namun detik berikutnya Milly menjerit, “Hentikan!” Masalahnya Axton mengoyak paksa pakaiannya tanpa ampun. Hingga bunyi kain robek berkali-kali terdengar di ruangan kedap suara itu. Menyisakan tubuh Milly yang tertutup bra hitam dan dalaman dengan warna senada.

In New York’s Upper East Side, there were two heirs. One was a speed-obsessed daredevil dominating the racetracks, the other was a brilliant actuary who controlled the flow of capital. Born into powerful families and polar opposites in temperament, yet they grew up side by side as each other’s only best friend. They had fought over girls and bickered endlessly over racing bets. However, at fifteen, there was one thing they did in perfect unison. They each put on the same roughly carved bronze badge. They were trinkets Mia had idly made during a craft class, marked only by a faint “M” scratched on the back. Back then, Mia was seated in the last row of the classroom. Her background was a complete mystery to everyone. Yet they wore that badge for ten whole years. Whether standing on the F1 podium or locking in billion-dollar trades at the exchange, the cheap little badge on their chests never changed. Until Ella showed up. She was the cherished daughter of a rising conglomerate family. She hand-stitched two gold-thread fabric patches and gifted them to them. The patches looked so ordinary they looked like the kind of trinket you would find three for a dollar at a flea market. And yet, they both replaced their bronze badges with her plain patches. Mia did not say anything. She simply folded away an old newspaper clipping with a photo of the three of them smiling together. That night, she called her father in Sicily. Her voice was emotionless. “Papa, I accept the marriage arrangement.”

She endured bullying from Camila and others for her mother and willingly hid her own talent until she met Asher, the Ozarks quarterback. Asher encouraged her singing and Ophelia wondered if she’d found true support in the athlete everyone called playboy. At their next concert, Camila humiliated Ophelia once more in front of everyone, and even prompting extreme fans to publicly assault her. "Loser?" Ophelia wondered, who was the real loser here? "I hope you regret messing with me." Soon, she found herself on stage, exposing the falsehood of Camila, being signed by an agent, receiving flowers, applause, and fortune, and trampling on those who once bullied her. On top of all this, Asher wants to take her on a date! But will Ophelia be able to juggle handling her newfound success alongside trusting him? "I like you," Asher said. Ophelia begins to question if their worlds are too vastly different. Asher comes from a completely different background than her own and while their passion is exciting, is it enough? Can they make it through the pressures of fame, career, and jealous ex-girlfriends? The Pop Star and the Playboy Quarterback is created by Cate Mattison, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

She has never spoken a word. Not because she chose silence— But because life chose it for her. Aradhya Mishra, mute since childhood and walking with a painful limp in one leg, has lived in the background of the world. Quiet, observant, and emotionally scarred, she’s learned to express her thoughts through gestures, eyes that speak volumes, and a heart that still dares to dream.

And perhaps—the only voice his soul can still hear. But love doesn’t bloom easily in a world soaked with blood and secrets. When two broken souls collide under a lie, Can truth set them free— Or will it destroy them both?

My husband was the leader of the rescue team. As I was trapped in a cave and surrounded by a pack of wolves, I desperately called him over and over. Yet, he hung up on me every single time. When the fire nearly burnt out and the wolves got closer, he finally called me and angrily accused me, "Can you stop wasting public resources? I'm the rescue team leader first, and then your husband." In the background, I heard a soft, feminine voice saying, "Howard, my arm has a cut. Can you take me to the hospital?" I was familiar with that voice. It was my husband's first love. Ever since her husband died, she clung to him. And my husband... He didn't just tolerate it; rather, he seemed to enjoy it. A wave of despair washed over me as I ended the call. My hands were trembling, and I tried to call the police, but before I could, the leader of the wolves pounced on me. I fell hard to the ground, and the rest of the pack, sensing the signal, ran toward me at an extraordinary speed. I didn't stand a chance to fight back, and in mere moments, I was ripped into pieces. Before my consciousness slipped away, I struggled to glance down at my lower abdomen one last time, and my lips quivered. "My baby, I'm sorry I failed you…"

Jace is a wanted criminal. Out of sheer luck or fate, as most people would say, he landed a job as a household manager—a position that didn't require a background check, which felt like a miracle. However, he soon finds himself drawn to the quadruplet bosses he serves. Damon, Peter, Jacob, and Garrett were the first quadruplets in the Bloodlust Pack to survive. Before their birth, quadruplets were seen as abominations and were to be killed immediately after birth. It was only because their mother, the Luna, and their father, the Alpha, had tried for years to have a child but to no avail that they were allowed to live. This brought about mixed feelings among the members of the pack, especially the elders. The quadruplets lived their lives trying to prove to everyone that they weren't abominations. For every good deed other members of the pack accomplished, they had to do ten times more to gain acceptance. What happens when they discover that they have a mate, and not just any mate, but a human male mate?! Will they accept him? Remember, they are already hanging by a thread in their quest for full acceptance into their pack. Will being gay jeopardize all their years of hard work? What about Jace? He is a victim of abuse but somehow was convicted of murder. Is he in the right mental state to fall in love? Let’s say he eventually does fall for the quadruplets—will he accept them, knowing they are werewolves? Even if he does accept the fact that they are werewolves, who will he choose to mate with? If the quadruplets accept Jace, what comes next? Can they fight against their pack for his sake?

Noah menggiring Mika menuju ke pemandian panas yang berada tepat di depan lautan yang diapit dua gunung di kiri dan kanannya. Kebaya putih itu sudah tertanggal di samping kolam air.
