Sahabat kecil suamiku mengidap penyakit parah. Demi agar dia bisa merasakan kehangatan keluarga dan tidak meninggalkan rasa penyesalan nantinya, suamiku memberikan kalungku kepadanya dan pergi bersamanya di hari ulang tahunku. Anakku bahkan diangkat jadi anak angkatnya. Dia bilang, “Dian, Lisa sudah mau meninggal, mengalah saja padanya.” Setiap kali aku meminta waktu dan perhatian mereka, anakku akan membantu ayahnya bicara. “Bu, bukankah ibu selalu mengajarkanku agar berjiwa besar? Tante Lisa sudah mau meninggal, kenapa Ibu terus mengganggunya?” Lama kelamaan, aku tidak lagi meminta apapun dari mereka. Suatu malam, aku mendengar pembicaraan putraku dengan ayahnya, “Tante Lisa sangat lembut dan anggun! Alangkah bagusnya jika Ibu bisa seperti dia!” Harris tertawa dan dengan lembut mengusap kepala putra kami. “Meski ibumu agak keras, tapi semua ini dilakukan demi kebaikanmu. Kalau kamu begitu menyukai Tante Lisa, biar dia menjadi Ibu angkatmu saja, oke?” Ternyata, anak yang kulahirkan dengan susah payah tidak menyukaiku. Aku menundukkan kepalaku, lalu diam-diam menutup pintu kamar dan berpura-pura tidak terjadi apa-apa. Karena mereka berdua tidak menyukaiku, jadi aku diam-diam pergi meninggalkan mereka.

Setelah kekasih masa kecil tunanganku tahu aku memiliki penyakit jantung bawaan, dia dengan sengaja mencampurkan minuman energi konsentrasi tinggi ke dalam sampanyeku. Setelah aku meminumnya, detak jantungku tiba-tiba meningkat, rasa sakit di jantung menerpaku. Aku dengan panik merobek satu-satunya obat darurat yang aku bawa, namun air untuk aku minum obat telah diganti dengan air lemon berkonsentrasi tinggi. Setelah aku meminumnya, seketika wajahku menjadi pucat pasi, akhirnya tidak tahan dan terjatuh ke lantai. “Air lemon mengandung Vitamin C, lebih membantu mengatasi mabuk dan menjaga kesehatan.” Charlotte tertawa terbahak-bahak, dia menyilangkan tangannya sambil menatap ke arah tunanganku, bos Geng Rock Roller. “Ethan, akting tunanganmu yang seorang aktris ini benar-benar hebat.” “Selama bertahun-tahun aku menjadi dokter, tidak pernah lihat orang yang minum sedikit sampanye dan air lemon, malah bisa merasa tidak enak badan seperti ini.” Aku menggigit bibirku hingga hampir berdarah, menahan air mata yang muncul di mataku karena kesakitan dan menggenggam celana Ethan yang ada di depanku. “Sayang, cepat panggil ambulans, aku sudah tidak tahan!” Sedikit keraguan terlihat di mata Ethan, namun dengan cepat terhentikan oleh para tamu di sekitar. “Sudahlah, jangan akting lagi, mana ada orang yang mati karena minum sedikit sampanye dan air lemon.” “Ya benar, kamu hanya iri dengan Charlotte yang naik jabatan, tidak ingin bersulang untuknya, kan?” Seketika Ethan kembali ke ekspresi dinginnya, dia melangkah maju, langsung melepaskan tanganku yang menggenggam celananya. “Charlotte itu dokter, ada dia di sini, kamu tidak akan kenapa-napa di pesta.” Aku pun tidak memohon padanya lagi, langsung mengirim pesan darurat kepada ayahku.

Raw and Ruined: Short Erotic Sins Step into a world where desire doesn’t ask permission and shame is just foreplay. Several merciless, sweat-slick stories that don’t seduce—they take. No slow burns. No sweet nothings. Just skin slapping skin, nails carving lines down backs, mouths full, thighs trembling, and the kind of orgasms that make your vision white out and your voice break. These stories are greedy. They bruise. They stain sheets and memories. They leave teeth marks and handprints and the delicious ache of being used exactly the way you secretly always wanted. These are not love stories. These are lust stories. Short. Sharp. Unapologetic. And they will leave you throbbing, aching, and reaching for someone—or something—to ruin you next. Raw and Ruined: Short Erotic Sins Because sometimes the dirtiest thing you can do… is let yourself be devoured.

When a predator becomes the prey… Alejandro Cortes was born into violence. As the heir to the infamous Cortes mafia family, he grew into something worse. Someone who bathes in the blood of his enemies yet with precision. A devil in a tailored suit feared across Italy. Ruthless. Untouchable. A man who ruled through blood and terror. Yet even devils have weaknesses. For Alejandro it was not his wife. It was his daughter. Nikolai Vassilliou built his empire differently. Not by any inheritance, but by hunger. By betrayal. By carving his name into the underworld through sheer brutality. Two monsters ruling two empires. Then one mistake changed everything. A hit meant for Alejandro’s wife ended with his daughter dead. Now Nikolai sits chained in a cold concrete cell. Broken, bleeding and at the mercy of a grieving father. The predator who once hunted… has finally become the prey. But revenge has a way of turning hatred into something far more dangerous.

“I, Kael Veyrith, reject you, Ashina Kai." The words tore through Ashina, sharper than claws and even crueler than death ever could. Ashina felt their bond snap and the agony of it carving into her soul like a wound that would never heal. ─── ⋅ ∙ ∘ ☽ ༓ ☾ ∘ ⋅ ⋅ ─── Ashina Kai was never meant to survive without her mate. Cast out from her pack after Kael’s rejection, she vanished into the human world, burying her past beneath a lie. No pack. No mate. No past. Just a quiet, ordinary life. Until the night she sees him again. Kael stands at the heart of a brutal attack, no longer the person she once knew but a man carved from war and shadows. And he’s leading a war she wants no part of. But despite every instinct screaming at her to run, Ashina is caught in the center of it all. But the past doesn’t forget. Neither does betrayal. He broke her once. If she lets him in again, will it be her undoing—or his?

Right before our Mating Ceremony, my mate, Alpha Damien, told me he had to temporarily mark an Omega from our pack, Seraphina. He claimed she had the Moon Sickness and would die if he didn't mark her. I fought him on it, but the next day, he moved Seraphina right into the penthouse of the Pack House. The suite meant for the future Luna. My suite. To calm me, he even got on his knees, his eyes red as he promised, "Once she's safe, I'll remove the mark. You'll still be my only Luna." But then, Seraphina found me, a medical report in her hand. Six weeks pregnant. They'd already held their marking ceremony long before Damien ever came to me. My heart shattered into ash. My pen dug into the calendar, carving a vicious X over the date that was supposed to be our Mating Ceremony. Then, I opened my laptop and replied to the email from the European Laurel Healers' Guild. "I accept your invitation. I leave on the day of the Mating Ceremony."
