Genesis Chapter 18

Aku mencari sensasi dan memanjakan diriku di dalam bus. Di tengah tubuh yang gemetar hebat, aku menyadari bahwa sopir bus tengah mengincarku. Semua orang di bus jarak jauh itu telah terlelap karena kelelahan. Hanya aku yang duduk di barisan depan, menggigit bibir dengan peluh yang membanjiri sekujur tubuh. Aku menderita sebuah gangguan psikologis yang sulit diungkapkan dengan kata-kata. Begitu penyakit itu kambuh, aku akan berubah menjadi raga tanpa rasa malu, yang tersisa hanyalah gairah yang meluap-luap.

Clara, eine junge, neugierige und sensible Frau, gibt sich nach und nach Julien, einem charismatischen und dominanten Mann, hin. Ihre Beziehung gleitet von Sinnlichkeit in eine tiefgreifende, psychologische und physische Dominanz. Julien drängt sie aus ihren gewohnten Grenzen, erforscht mit grausamer und zärtlicher Mischung ihre Grenzen. Clara entdeckt in sich eine beunruhigende Freude an Gehorsam, Aussetzung und Unterwerfung. Das Eintreffen von Lou und anschließend von Marc intensiviert diese Spirale: Clara wird zum Objekt eines geteilten Verlangens, einer einvernehmlichen, aber transgressiven Doppelübernahme. Nacht für Nacht löst sie ihre alten Grenzen auf und wird neu geboren.

Di dalam bus tidur saat perjalanan pulang di hari liburan, aku yang memang memiliki hasrat tinggi tidak tahan ingin memeluk boneka silikon khusus yang baru aku beli untuk memuaskan diri. Setelah kembali dari toilet, lampu bus sudah dimatikan dan seluruh kabin gelap gulita. Aku meraba-raba masuk ke dalam tirai ranjangku. "Jangan di sana. Kamu terlalu besar. Nanti rusak." Tanpa banyak bicara, pria itu mengangkat kakiku di bahunya. Benda panasnya yang besar menekan bagian intimku. Aku menggelengkan kepala tidak karuan, napasku tersengal-sengal, air mata dan liurku bercampur menjadi satu, menetes ke seluruh lantai. "Aku salah. Cepat masukkan." Benda keras itu langsung menusuk ke dalam. Aku sampai memutarkan bola mata karena terlalu nikmat. "Kalau terus dipegang, ini akan berakhir sampai penetrasi penuh."

Larut malam, teknisi AC datang ke rumah. Tapi, jari-jarinya yang begitu lincah justru memberiku sensasi yang belum pernah kurasakan sebelumnya…. “Telepon suamimu, biar dia lihat sendiri betapa hausnya kamu!” ujar pria di belakangku sambil menarik rambutku ke belakang. “Jangan… kalau sampai dia tahu, dia pasti nggak bakal memaafkanku….” Baru saja aku selesai bicara, nada sambung yang sejak tadi terus berdering tiba-tiba berhenti, teleponnya tersambung

“Dokter, tolong cepat periksa aku.” Di bangsal, seorang wanita cantik nan seksi berbaring tengkurap di ranjang, mengangkat pantatnya ke arahku dan memintaku untuk membantunya memeriksa masalah kecanduan. Tetapi aku bukan dokter! Tepat saat aku hendak menolak, wanita cantik itu melepas celananya, menunjukkan kulit putih bersihnya. Siapa yang bisa tahan dengan ini.

—Padrino, me equivoqué, no volveré a ir al club nocturno... Mmm, ahí no me puedes tocar. A altas horas de la noche, en la entrada del club nocturno, una atractiva mujer con medias negras estaba tirada en la calle, tan borracha que dejaba a la vista su calzoncito blanco. Me puse eufórico y deslicé la mano por debajo de su falda. Para mi sorpresa, me confundió con su padrino y creyó que venía a darle una lección, por lo que se quedó tan asustada que no se atrevió a moverse. Aproveché la situación para separarle las piernas y me abalancé sobre ella con fuerza. —¡Padrino! ¿Por qué me castigas de esta manera? —gritó aterrada.

Di dalam bioskop yang gelap gulita, aku menggenggam tangan istriku dan tiba-tiba muncul keinginan untuk melakukan sesuatu yang agak menantang. Saat meletakkan tangannya di bagian tubuhku agar dia bisa merasakannya, dia malah menahan tanganku dengan gemetar, Saat film berakhir dan lampu menyala, barulah aku melihat bahwa orang di sampingku itu bukan istriku, melainkan Marry, tetangga kami….

For nearly five centuries, no child has drawn a first breath. The Creator sealed the womb of the world, and humanity learned to live without its future. But in the depths of Triune, another kind of genesis rose. From the Middle comes a child with power and lineage to rival the Creator. Not born, but woven. Not raised, but awakened. Bodies shaped by design. Souls coaxed from silence. Each one a crafted echo of what humanity once was. Those who survive their emergence ascend to the Upper. Those who falter are reclaimed by the dark. On the night meant to mark their passage into adulthood, five friends stumble upon a truth older than scripture and sharper than prophecy: The first humans were not what they were told. The gods were not who they claimed to be. And the Children of Triune were never meant to ask why. Some truths don't set you free, they come for you.

t was in the stark interrogation room where Caesar laid eyes on Lola's face for the very first time. Lola, accused of betraying her own country, was in a dire situation. She was draped in nothing but a flimsy, damp garment and weighed down by the clanking chains that bound her to the floor. Clad in his regal black military uniform, Caesar sat as the judge of her trial. Years later, when news of their lavish wedding emerged, the world assumed it was the genesis of their love story. "They said when Caesar, once a general, first saw Lola, shivering in agony and desperation, his heart swelled with empathy. He tenderly removed his black gloves and reached out to her with love." In reality, Caesar never removed his gloves throughout the trial. He sat outside the iron railing, observing Lola with a frigid countenance. But it wasn't until yesterday that Caesar finally held Lola in his arms.

"I, Logan Carter, Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack, reject you, Emma Parker of the Crescent Moon Pack." I could feel my heart breaking. Leon was howling inside me, and I could feel his pain. She was looking right at me, and I could see the pain in her eyes, but she refused to show it. Most wolves fall to their knees from pain. I wanted to fall to my knees and claw at my chest. But she didn’t. She was standing there with her head held high. She took a deep breath and closed her wonderful eyes. "I, Emma Parker of the Crescent Moon Pack, accept your rejection." When Emma turns 18, she is surprised that her mate is the Alpha of her pack. But her happiness about finding her mate didn't last long. Her mate rejected her for a stronger she-wolf. That she-wolf hates Emma and wants to get rid of her, but that isn't the only thing Emma has to deal with. Emma finds out that she is not an ordinary wolf and that there are people who want to use her. They are dangerous. They will do everything to get what they want. What will Emma do? Will her mate regret rejecting her? Will her mate save her from the people around them? This book combines Book One and Book Two in the series. Book Two starts after chapter 96!
