Bas Tu Hi Piya

Una empleada de mi empresa se fue a desahogarse en TikTok porque, según ella, yo no le aprobaba la licencia por matrimonio. “Tenemos un bajo índice de matrimonios, una baja natalidad, y es culpa de ustedes, malditos capitalistas. ¡Ni siquiera me apruebas la licencia por matrimonio! ¿Para ti solo soy una esclava? Me creí tus mentiras, eso de ‘vamos a ser una empresa de puras mujeres, una empresa amigable con las mujeres’, y mírate ahora: se te cayó la máscara; ya se te vio la cara de capitalista que exprime a la gente hasta dejarla seca.” El video explotó de la nada; un montón de jóvenes se sintieron identificados y se me fueron encima en redes, al punto de que hasta me mandaron navajas por correo. Yo, como jefa, me lancé a hacer un live y me le fui directo contra ella. “Lo siento, pero la licencia por matrimonio de Blanca no la voy a aprobar. Puede denunciar ante el Ministerio de Trabajo y pedir una audiencia de conciliación; si no hay acuerdo, puede demandarme en un juzgado laboral si quiere.” El live reventó de gente. Entre los que la apoyaban, aparecieron supuestos abogados y hasta se ofrecían a ayudarla gratis a demandarme, pero Blanca se quedó con el gesto tenso, como si no tuviera salida. “Yo solo quería mi licencia; nunca pensé en renunciar, y mucho menos en demandar a Samantha…”

Pada hari jadi pernikahan kami yang ketiga, aku menunggu selama lima jam di restoran berbintang Michelin favorit Dion Bahlilah. Namun, dia tidak bisa dihubungi lagi. Pada akhirnya, aku melihatnya di unggahan sosial media milik kekasih masa kecilnya, Arina Purbaya. Dion menemaninya ke Benua Anarsia, benua yang sangat dingin. [Aku bilang aku sedang bad mood, dia langsung membatalkan seluruh janjinya untuk menemaniku bersantai.] [Ternyata, teman masa kecil lebih menenangkan daripada penguin.] Gambar yang menyertainya menunjukkan pemandangan yang sangat dingin, tetapi Dion dengan lembut memeluknya. Matanya memancarkan semangat membara yang belum pernah kulihat sebelumnya. Tiba-tiba, aku merasa lelah. Aku menghentikan pertanyaan menyakitkan itu, menghentikan tangisan histerisku. Aku hanya dengan tenang menyukai unggahan tersebut dan mengirimkan pesan pada Dion. [Ayo bercerai.] Setelah beberapa lama kemudian, dia mengirim pesan suara. Nada suaranya menantang. “Oke, akan aku tanda tangani saat pulang.” “Lihat saja nanti siapa yang akan menangis dan memohon agar aku tidak pergi.” Orang yang menerima perlakuan khusus membuat mereka berani bertindak tanpa batasan, Dion pun sama sekali tidak mempercayainya. 'Tetapi Dion... Tidak ada seorang pun yang tidak bisa meninggalkan seseorang, hanya saja orang itu masih cinta. Tetapi mulai sekarang, aku tidak ingin mencintaimu lagi.'

Si Lira Mendoza ay isang simpleng basurera na araw-araw lumalaban sa kahirapan para sa kanyang pamilya. Sanay siyang maliitin, tapakan ang dignidad, at ipaalala ng mundo kung saan siya nababagay… sa ilalim. Ngunit isang aksidente ang magbabago sa lahat nang matapunan niya ng basura ang isang mayabang at misteryosong lalaki na hindi niya alam ay isa palang makapangyarihang CEO. Si Nathaniel Cross, isang cold at elite na negosyante, ay sanay makuha ang lahat… pera, respeto, at babae. Ngunit iba si Lira. Hindi siya nagpapanggap, hindi siya humihingi ng awa, at kahit sugatan ang pride, buo pa rin ang tapang. Sa gitna ng isang marangyang villa party, muling nagtagpo ang kanilang mundo… at doon nagsimula ang isang masakit na banggaan ng uri, dignidad, at damdamin. Habang unti-unting nahuhulog ang loob ni Nathaniel sa babaeng galing sa mundo ng basura, lalong humihigpit ang hawak ng kanyang pamilya, lalo na ng kanyang ina, na may sariling plano para sa kanyang kinabukasan. Sa pagitan ng pang-aalipusta, lihim na kasunduan, at unti-unting pag-usbong ng pag-ibig, kakayanin ba ni Lira ang mundong hindi siya kailanman tinanggap? O mananatili siyang basurera sa paningin ng lahat… kahit sa lalaking handa nang ipaglaban siya?

I was supposed to die. Five years ago, my life ended. My husband betrayed me. My child was stolen. My wolf went silent. I was left alone, broken, and terrified. Everyone thought I’d stay that way. They were wrong. I came back to a home that wasn’t mine anymore. My husband had moved on, marrying the cousin who once coveted him… the woman who stole everything I loved. Everything had moved on without me. And then he appeared. Hayes Whitmore— dangerous, strong, impossible to ignore. The bastard prince. He saved me from the monsters that hunted me, but there’s something in him darker than anything I’ve ever faced. Even worse, he’s a Lycan, and I was raised to believe Lycans are enemies. He doesn’t ask me to trust him. He doesn’t beg for my heart. And yet… every time his hand brushes mine, every word he speaks, every heated look he gives me, I feel something I shouldn’t. What I feel for him is forbidden. And yet… I ache for him. I crave him. I need him. Every touch, every glance, every dangerous moment makes me question everything I thought I knew about loyalty, love, and myself. Bound by lies, lust, and anger, I’ll awaken a wolf forged from pain — a wolf that will take back everything stolen from me. And maybe, if I let him, he’ll claim me fully… body, heart, and soul. This isn’t a love story. It’s survival. Obsession. Lust. Revenge. And a desire so dangerous it could destroy us both.

A shadow that would claim everything, sparking fear in every heart: Guerrero Valenti. The father who abandoned him. The legend whose name alone commands obedience.

Every street, every roof, every whispered corner will bow to the son of Guerrero Valenti or be washed in blood. This is the story of survival. Of fire and steel. Of a mother and her son. Of a father’s return. Even the earth is getting ready to absorb blood … the blood of those who call the legitimate son of the Vikings a “BASTARD", and collect necks........the necks of those fallen by the sword of GUERRERO VALANTI. And upon his return Heads will bow to the one they called a BASTARD .

Calon suamiku adalah seorang pilot balon udara, dan mantan pacarnya ingin berpetualang terbang setinggi seribu meter. Ketika gas helium di balon bocor, dan kami dalam situasi berbahaya, calon suamiku mengambil parasut ganda dan melompat bersama mantan pacarnya.
