I swore vengeance long before I swore the law. The night my twin sister’s future was stolen, a promise was carved into my soul—to dismantle the empire of Alexander Stone, the ruthless leader of the Xander MC. Not with fists or bullets, but with patience, precision, and the law he thinks he’s untouchable from. Now I walk in his shadow. To him, I’m a sharp-tongued lawyer with a backbone of steel—the woman he thinks can shield him from justice. To me, he’s nothing but a target. Every word I speak, every smile I fake, every late-night meeting in smoke-filled rooms is just another thread in the trap I’m weaving around him. But vengeance has its own dangers. Somewhere in the blurred lines of loyalty and deception, I start to feel the pull of the very man I came to destroy. His voice lingers, his touch burns, and the closer I get to ending him, the closer I fall into something I can’t control. He doesn’t know my secret—yet. But when the mask falls, when he realizes the knife has been in my hands all along, it won’t just be a reckoning. It will be war. And in this war between justice and desire, I may lose more than my sister’s revenge… I may lose myself and I don't know if I'll destroy him... or if he'll destroy me first.

Dingin... Pagi ini dingin menusuk hilang ke relung hati.Menenggelamkan rasa candu yang selama ini melekat dalam diri. Apa yang kau inginkan?Maaf aku belum bisa mengabulkannya.Ada batasan tak kasat mata untuk kita, dan itu karena kau yang memulainya.Jadi mengapa saat ini kau kembali merusak keyakinanku, dengan bersikap kekanakan? Apa kau tahu bagaimana rasanya melawan arus?Tolong jangan seperti ini.Jangan menyulitkan apa yang sudah mulai kuterima.Kau hanya perlu untuk melanjutkan sisa hidup, dan aku pun demikian.°• Julia Malika Kuncoro•°Aku menyesal melewatkanmu,tanpa berjuang lebih dulu.Seharusnya aku tidak membiarkankesempatan itu lewat begitu saja,di saat kuyakini kau memiliki rasa untukku.Saat ini ketika tak ada satu pun petunjuk, aku merasa benar-benar seperti manusia bodoh.Puluhan purnama aku berusaha, tapi puluhan kali pula aku merasasemakin bodoh lagi dan lagi.Apa yang kau inginkan?Haruskah semua ini ku akhiri? °• Saidan Pratama Putra•°

Mula sa pantalan ay hinagod ng tingin ni Guen ang buong kapaligiran. Malamig ang gabi, tahimik na tahimik ang malawak na lawa, gumuguhit ang liwanag ng buwan sa tubig. Napakasarap ng may kayakap ng mga sandaling iyon. "I've always wanted to slow dance beneath the stars..." aniya.Pero nang humarap siya kay Kibaweg, ibang sayaw ang ginawa nila. Mapusok, nag-aalab sa init ang halik ng binata. Gusto sana niya itong itulak, pigilan sa ginagawa, pero hindi niya magawa. Ngayon lang niya naranasan ang ganitong sensasyon kaya huli na nang mapansin niyang hinuhubad na nito ang pang-ibaba niyang saplot...

“Here's the deal. Do that lawyer stuff that you do. Try to send me to jail.” “What?” I blinked. “I'm giving you a year, but in my territory. I'm not sending you back to the U.S, so better get used to Italy like you once lived.” “Excuse-” “But you'll have everything. Every resource. Impress me, show me why you're a top lawyer and get me locked up. Prove to everyone that I killed your parents.” “I'll send you to jail, even if it's the last thing I do, Roman. You're trying to ruin my life again, but this time I won't let you. You're finished.” “Now, the condition.” My eyes widened. Now a condition? “If you don't succeed, you won't ever have an opinion. You'll be my plaything, my pet, my personal slave, my cum bucket. You'll be whatever I want you to be, do you understand?” I felt instant chills ripple through me. “So that's what you want? To control me after killing my parents?” “Yes, exactly that. I want to humiliate you so badly, so better impress me and send me to jail, Gianna. Better do it.” His voice was thick with warning. No matter how much I desire him, I'll make sure he rots in jail. …… We don't always get what we want, Gianna. He killed her parents and she managed to escape the house fire. Years later and this invincible Mafia don gets arrested in the United States, and she's the top lawyer in charge of his case? Hmm, I wonder what happened next.

He’s powerful. Unshakable. Untouchable… until she returns. Evan Ramos commands the courtroom and the city’s most prestigious law firm, but behind the polished suit and iron reputation is a man undone by grief and longing. Widowed, weary, and raising a young daughter, he has never stopped carrying the weight of a past love. Liana Cruz never meant to come back - returns to town for a funeral, sparks ignite that neither can ignore, not after the night that tore her heart apart, not after she left him for the sake of her sister. But fate has other plans. Drawn back into Evan’s orbit, she finds herself face-to-face with the man she once loved and whose touch still makes her pulse race. As legal battles pit them against each other, as stolen moments and lingering glances spark with undeniable chemistry, Evan and Liana are forced to confront the desire, guilt, and passion that refuses to stay buried. With a rival firm watching, a colleague quietly coveting her, and a past that won’t let go, the heat between them becomes impossible to ignore. Will they let the past destroy them, or will they risk everything to finally give in to the fire that has always simmered between them?
