Gaara Sand Bag

Unable to take it anymore, I upload a photo of my husband, Johann Garner, holding hands with his secretary, Eva Ford, to the company's group chat. A long while later, Johann finally replies, "It's just something we do when we're working together. Those who are vile in nature will always view things differently from others." Messages from his colleagues begin flooding the group chat immediately. They all discuss whether or not I'm delusional. But I'm the only one who knows just how skilled Johann is at manipulating others as an expert manipulator. After muting the group chat, I look down at the ring Johann has slipped onto my finger when he first proposed to me. When exactly can I escape from the prison he has built around me?

Tristan Zayden Zachadry was reincarnated to the most dangerous world and was named Zaykee, but how will he survive or do his goal to come back if he no longer had his gifted talent in kung fu? Can a weakling expose the government? And many hidden secrets in that world? “Truth is the ultimate power. When the truth comes around, all the lies have to run and hide” – Ice Cube

mereka sering mengira Kota itu ramai. Tapi pada kenyataannya Kota itu tak pernah benar-benar ramai, bagi Vania rumah Vania selalu terasa lebih sunyi daripada jalanan di luar sana. Rumah dua lantai dengan pagar hitam tinggi itu berdiri megah, tetapi tak pernah terasa hangat. Dindingnya kokoh, lampunya terang, namun percakapan di dalamnya selalu singkat dan seperlunya. Vania tumbuh di antara jadwal rapat dan dering telepon papahnya yang tak pernah berhenti. Pria itu selalu berangkat sebelum matahari terbit dan pulang ketika malam hampir habis. Jas kerjanya rapi, wajahnya tegas, tetapi waktunya tak pernah cukup untuk duduk sebentar dan mendengarkan cerita putrinya. Di meja makan yang panjang, kursi papah sering kali kosong atau jika terisi, hanya ada keheningan yang menggantung canggung. Bagi Vania. rumah bukan tempat berbagi cerita, melainkan tempat menyimpan luka. Di sekolah, ia dikenal sebagai siswi pendiam. Senyumnya manis tapi siapa yang tahu sorot matanya menyimpan lelah yang tak dimengerti teman-temannya. Ia pernah menemukan tempat bersandar seseorang yang membuatnya merasa didengar, dihargai, dan tidak sendirian. Seseorang yang menjadi dunianya ketika rumah tak lagi terasa utuh. Namun sandaran itu runtuh. Orang yang paling ia percaya justru meninggalkannya dan menghianatinya. Sejak saat itu, Vania belajar menjadi wanita yang lebih tegar. Ia yakin bahwa ia mampu melewati semuanya sendiri. Lorong sekolah, bangku taman, dan sudut perpustakaan menjadi saksi bisu tangis yang ia sembunyikan. Hari-harinya berjalan datar hingga suatu pagi, di tengah riuh langkah siswa dan bel yang menggema, takdir mempertemukan ia dengan seseorang. Seseorang yang mampu mengerti yang terdalam yang tersembunyi di balik dirinya. Dan seseorang yang mempunyai luka yang sama. Dan di sanalah cerita Vania benar-benar dimulai di antara luka yang tak kunjung sembuh, dan harapan yang diam-diam tumbuh kembali.

I just closed a deal worth 50 million. The room did its job, so I went to the reception to check out, and I got myself a bottle of water worth 2 dollars. That very same day, I got an email from the company accusing me of misusing company funds. They canceled three months' worth of KPI from my records and fined me 5,000 dollars. I ignored that, thinking that it was a mistake some new guy in finance made. When I went to work the next day, my access card was denied. It was canceled. I couldn't even get into the building. Furious, I called my CEO fiance, but his secretary took the call instead. "How many times do I have to tell you to follow the rules when it comes to money? Did you tell finance about that bottle of water? No? Then that's against the rules! Everyone else follows the rules, so why can't you? You're a veteran!" The CEO chimed in, "Christina, you're a veteran of the company. You must be an example. You're not allowed back to work until you finish your 8000-word reflection and read it out loud at the all-employee meeting!" They tossed the phone aside, and a moment later, moans of delight and passion traveled through the air. Stone-faced, I hung up and called our competitor's CEO. "I've got a 50-million-dollar deal and a sales manager who just got fired for you. Are you taking that deal?"

“I, Alpha Alessandro D’Almerita, reject you, wolf huntress Valerie Morozov, as my mate and Luna.” He said, glaring at the woman, his mate, as she lay bare on the bed that they shared the other night. “I, Valerie Morozov, accept your rejection, Alpha Alessandro D’Almerita.” ************************ Rejected, torn, pregnant, and angry. But when a wolf turns up in her infirmary, injured, beaten, and shot, Valerie is surprised that it is no other than the Alpha, her family’s sworn enemy, who rejected her. None other than Alpha Alessandro…

But as much as I loved him, there were cracks in our perfect marriage. Damien didn’t want children. He’d been clear about it from the start, even though I had always dreamed of being a mother. He’d smile that charming smile of his and say, “Pups will tie us down, my love. You’re so beautiful and vibrant and pregnancy would change that. I want you to stay just as you are.”

Le jour de ma cérémonie avec Vincent Richard, le futur Alpha, la bague en pierre de lune qui m'était destinée, la future Luna, a mystérieusement disparu de l'écrin. À sa place se trouve une languette de canette déjà noircie par l'oxydation. Les applaudissements des invités s'éteignent immédiatement. Ils se tournent tous vers moi. Dans le silence, Joséphine Albert, l'amour d'enfance de Vincent, sort de la foule. Elle lève la main gauche et fait un signe de la main, la bague en pierre de lune sur l'annulaire. Puis, elle sort une bague assortie et la glisse au doigt de Vincent. « Tu dois être terrifiée, Angela, n'est-ce pas ? En fait, c'est moi qui porte la bague en ce moment. Cette languette de canette n'est pas un objet ordinaire, tu sais. Vincent me l'avait donnée quand nous étions encore des enfants. Elle symbolise l'amour éternel qui ne s'éteindra jamais. Maintenant, je te la donne. » Les paroles de Joséphine me transpercent le cœur. Je tremble violemment, comme si mon cœur était coupé en mille morceaux. Cependant, Vincent se contente de rire. « Joséphine a toujours des idées ridicules. Elle plaisante, Angela. Ne prends pas ses paroles au sérieux. » « Oh, je ne le ferai pas. » Je jette la languette de la canette dans le feu de joie, laissant échapper un petit rire sec. « Cette cérémonie est annulée. » Vincent m'attrape la main avant de me serrer dans ses bras. « Arrête de chercher à semer la zizanie, Angela ! Nous avons trouvé l'anneau, n'est-ce pas ? Cette alliance affectera l'avenir de nos meutes ! Ce n'est pas toi qui prends les décisions ici ! » Je me dégage de l'étreinte de Vincent, captant une trace d'odeur écœurante qui flotte autour de lui, une odeur qui n'est pas la mienne. « Il est vrai que la meute du Lac de la Lune va former une alliance avec la meute du Pierre Brun, mais mon futur compagnon n'est pas nécessairement toi. »

Jason’s world felt like it collapsed the moment he discovered that the woman he had loved so deeply had only deceived him—and that the son he believed was his, wasn’t really his at all. All of his wealth and properties ended up in the hands of those two manipulators. But what he didn’t expect was that the woman he had once left behind would be the very same person who stayed by his side during his final moments. She never left him and took care of him, even though he hadn’t treated her well in the past. Jason regretted everything he had done to Catheryn. But would his regrets change anything now? "If only I could be given one more chance to change everything I’ve done, I wouldn’t choose to leave Catheryn. I’ll never choose that woman, and I will stay with her—my Catheryn." When he opened his eyes again, he suddenly realized... he had returned to the past. Will he be able to change everything? Or will the same future unfold once more?

Luna Grimes has never believed in fate. As a photographer, she thrives on capturing truth—the unfiltered, raw moments hidden behind Hollywood’s illusions. But when she’s assigned to photograph Deverell Blackwood, the industry’s most untouchable star, truth becomes the one thing slipping through her fingers. He is arrogant, infuriatingly perfect, and worst of all—familiar. She hates the way he looks at her, as if he knows her. Then the impossible starts happening. Distorted photographs. A missing reflection. A name whispered in dreams that don’t belong to her. Luna knows she should stay away from Deverell. But he won’t let her. And the closer she gets, the more she realizes… this isn’t the first time they’ve met. It won’t be the last.

Shayra Anindya terpaksa harus menikah dengan Adien Raffasyah Aldebaran, demi menyelamatkan perusahaan peninggalan almarhum ayahnya yang hampir bangkrut. "Bagaimana mungkin, Mama melamar seorang pria untukku, untuk anak gadismu sendiri, Ma? Dimana-mana keluarga prialah yang melamar anak gadis bukan malah sebaliknya ...," protes Shayra tak percaya dengan keputusan ibunya. "Lalu kamu bisa menolaknya lagi dan pria itu akan makin menghancurkan perusahaan peninggalan almarhum papamu! Atau mungkin dia akan berbuat lebih dan menghancurkan yang lainnya. Tidak!! Mama takakan membiarkan hal itu terjadi. Kamu menikahlah dengannya supaya masalah selesai." Ibunya Karina melipat tangannya tegas dengan keputusan yang tak dapat digugat. "Aku sudah bilang, Aku nggak mau jadi isterinya Ma! Asal Mama tahu saja, Adien itu setengah mati membenciku! Lalu sebentar lagi aku akan menjadi isterinya, yang benar saja. Ckck, yang ada bukannya hidup bahagia malah jalan hidupku hancur ditangan suamiku sendiri ..." Shayra meringis ngeri membayangkan perkataannya sendiri Mamanya Karina menghela nafasnya kasar. "Dimana-mana tidak ada suami yang tega menghancurkan isterinya sendiri, sebab hal itu sama saja dengan menghancurkan dirinya sendiri. Yahhh! Terkecuali itu sinetron ajab, kalo itu sih, beda lagi ceritanya. Sudah-sudahlah, keputusan Mama sudah bulat! Kamu tetap harus menikah dangannya, titik enggak ada komanya lagi apalagi kata, 'tapi-tapi.' Paham?!!" Mamanya bersikeras dengan pendiriannya. "Tapi Ma, Adien membenc-" "Tidak ada tapi-tapian, Shayra! Mama gak mau tahu, pokoknya bagaimana pun caranya kamu harus tetap menikah dengan Adien!" Tegas Karina tak ingin dibantah segera memotong kalimat Shayra yang belum selesai. Copyright 2020 Written by Saiyaarasaiyaara
