Butuh Effort

Hari ketika aku keguguran dan mengalami pendarahan hebat, suamiku justru memamerkan foto telapak kaki bayi yang baru lahir di media sosialnya. Teks yang dia tulis berbunyi, "Selamat datang malaikat kecil, Ayah akan selalu menjagamu." Dengan tangan bergetar, aku menelponnya. "Anak kita sudah nggak ada, kamu bisa datang ke rumah sakit nggak?" Dari seberang terdengar tangisan bayi. Suaranya terdengar malas. "Kalau sudah begitu, kamu jaga kesehatanmu baik-baik. Yessy baru saja melahirkan, dia butuh aku. Aku nggak bisa pergi." "Dan yang sudah mati jangan rebut kasih sayang dengan yang masih hidup, ngerti nggak?" Dia langsung menutup telepon. Aku hancur di ranjang rumah sakit, akhirnya menghapus air mata, lalu menekan nomor musuh bebuyutannya, Lukas. "Nikahi aku, seluruh Grup Largi aku bawa jadi mas kawin. Aku cuma mau kamu jatuhin Fandi, kamu mau nggak?"

Cinta tak memilih status, bahkan saat hatimu sudah hancur berkeping-keping. "Aku janda, Kiwi. Punya masa lalu, punya luka. Masih mau jatuh cinta sama aku?" "Aku bukan cari yang sempurna, Melon. Aku cari yang nyata." Kiwi Arsenio—pria mapan, tampan, dan jadi rebutan banyak wanita—jatuh cinta bukan pada wanita muda yang menggoda, tapi pada Melon Zavira, janda satu anak yang lebih suka menghabiskan waktu di rumah sambil menanam bunga daripada pamer di media sosial. Namun cinta mereka tidak semudah resep smoothie. Masa lalu Melon yang kelam dan keluarga Kiwi yang penuh tuntutan membuat hubungan ini seperti buah yang belum matang—butuh kesabaran, pengorbanan, dan keberanian untuk bisa dinikmati. Mampukah Kiwi bertahan demi cinta yang tak biasa ini? Atau justru Melon yang akan mundur, demi melindungi hati yang pernah retak?

She’s part witch, part fae, and all danger sent by The Order to spy on the very man fate says she belongs to. Love was never part of her mission… and certainly never part of Kael’s prophecy.

One kiss could change everything. And one truth could destroy them both. When fate ties a killer to a king, can love still bloom in the shadows? What secret prophecy connects them… and what price will they pay to survive it?
