Now a powerful CEO, Lucas is stunned to see the woman he loved trapped in a toxic marriage. Learning of her misery, he vows to free her from the chains of her past—even if it means clashing with Adrian who refuses to let her go. As old feelings reignite and secrets unravel, Elena must decide: will she fight for the love she once believed in, or will her past mistakes keep her from the future she deserves?

Apa kau tahu cerita Lovecraftian? Bercerita tentang keberadaan di luar akal manusia. Azathot, Nyarlathotep, Daolot... Ya! ini cerita seperti itu. Pada dasarnya, MC cukup sial menjadi target salah satu dari mereka, dan tidak di biarkan "mati" sekalipun; dipermainkan. #Novel pertama saya, kalo ada kesalahan penulisan, plot rumit, susah dipahami, tulung di kasi tahu. Ya! Tidak ada paksaan, sy gk bisa jg.

"Aku bukan Chloe!" teriak wanita itu lagi. "Kalau kau bukan Chloe, lalu siapa?" Kenneth tertawa kecil. "Jalang yang selingkuh karena suaminya bangkrut?" Kenneth menatap 'Chloe' dengan tatapan merendahkan. Dia membuang napas sambil terus menggulung sabuk di tangannya, kemudian mencambuk pinggang wanita yang berhasil membuatnya bimbang itu. "Jangan merendahkanku seperti itu. Kau tidak boleh menghukum seseorang atas kesalahan yang tidak pernah dia lakukan!" Telunjuk 'Chloe' mengarah tepat di depan wajah Kenneth yang memerah. Dia semakin aneh padahal mulanya mengaku sedang rindu pada Kenneth, lantas kenapa mengelak kalau dia adalah Chloe? Apakah dia tidak mau hidup dalam neraka? "Atas kesalahan yang tidak pernah kau lakukan? Sepertinya aku harus membuatmu mengingat kesalahan itu, Chloe!" Lagi, Kenneth mencambuk wanita itu sampai meraung kesakitan. Kali ini dia tidak boleh lolos dan harus membayar luka Kenneth selama ini. "Kau sialan, Ken!" teriak wanita gila itu lagi. Kenneth tersenyum miring. Bahkan dari cara wanita itu memanggil nama Kenneth membuat lelaki itu semakin yakin kalau dia adalah Chloe Dakota. Rupanya dia terlalu bodoh untuk bersandiwara.

"I will personally take her life—after she births my successor!” I heard the Alpha's words clearly, and at that moment I ran as fast as I could. I knew I was nothing but a vessel, a slave he bought to gave birth to his heir. What was I even expecting from him? Why do I even expect love from him? Was I really going to just let him end me? With a heavy and broken heart, I hugged onto my growing belly, the alpha's baby that I was carrying. No. There had to be a way out of this castle. I would make an escape from this pack, and ditch this pack for my baby and my freedom!

Felix and I had been inseparable for ten years, and everyone thought we would end up married. When he got into fights at school, I took the blame and got expelled in his place. When he slept with countless women, I delivered birth control pills and breakup money in his place. I had always played the part of the shameless doormat, and everyone believed I loved him more than life itself. But the moment he took over as the heir to his family's fortune, he dumped me. He looked at me with scorn and disdain. "Kathy, maybe once upon a time we were in love, but it's been too long. You're dull, and you've drained away every ounce of my affection. I don't want to spend the rest of my life with you, so get out of my sight. I'm going to marry someone I truly love." Everyone was waiting to watch me fall apart. But when I saw the hospital's proof that my mother had been cured, and the extra hundred million dollars in my bank account, I genuinely smiled. "Fine. I'll leave," I said. The truth was, I had stayed with a player like him only because of a business deal. Now that I had the money, it was time for me to walk away.

On our fifth wedding anniversary, Jacob Carter once again abandons me for his so-called first love, Wendy Miller. "Wendy's raising a child on her own. It's not easy for her. Can't you be a little more understanding? You're also a woman, aren't you?" Jacob said. In my previous life, that argument turned into a nightmare. He locked me in the house, and when a fire broke out, I was burned to death. After being reborn, I don't just give them my blessing. I pack my bags, walk out on my own terms, and apply to study architecture overseas. And now? Jacob's the one falling apart—crying and begging me not to go.
