Heels Tertutup

Right after getting reborn, the first thing I do is start a livestream with the equipment I've brought to the main entrance of a bank. There, I humiliate myself on purpose just to attract the viewers' attention. Immediately, tens of thousands of viewers flock to my channel. After that, I take off my high heels on the spot and throw them at the armored truck that's carrying cash with all my might. "Get down! Don't move!" As I listen to the guards' stern warnings and watch as they aim their guns at me, I just spread my arms with a smile on my face. "This is a robbery! Hand over the money!" In my previous life, my business partner, Zachary Leed, and the finance director of my company, Yvette Sanders, had betrayed me. They used the perks that came with their jobs to receive illegal loans while using my company as a collateral asset. In the end, they fled with the cash, leaving me with the shitty aftermath to deal with. I was given a life sentence in jail in order to atone for the crimes Zachary and Yvette had pinned on me. My brother went all over the nation and spent all of his fortune just to seek justice for me, but he ended up dying from depression. When I open my eyes again, I yell loudly to the viewers watching my livestream at the moment. "Everyone, you shall witness the most historic moment ever! Come with me as I rob a bank right in front of your eyes on this livestream!"

Liburan semester seharusnya menjadi waktu bagi Alea Kirana untuk bersantai, tapi sebagai mahasiswi DKV yang ambisius, ia justru disibukkan dengan persiapan Dies Natalis kampusnya. Di tengah hiruk-pikuk acara yang meriah, takdir mempermainkannya. Dalam insiden tak terduga, ia menabrak seorang pria di koridor kampus, menumpahkan kopi ke jas mahalnya. Pria itu bukan sembarang orang, melainkan Alden Dirgantara, CEO muda yang sukses, alumni yang menjadi kebanggaan universitas, dan sosok yang dikabarkan dingin dan tak tersentuh. Kejadian memalukan itu seharusnya menjadi yang terakhir, namun ternyata hanya permulaan. Alden, yang terkesan dengan presentasi Alea, menawarkan posisi magang di perusahaannya.

Namun, saat hubungan mereka semakin dalam, masa lalu Alden dan intrik di perusahaan mengancam untuk menghancurkan segalanya. Mampukah Alea bertahan di dunia korporat yang asing dan membuka hati Alden yang tertutup? Atau akankah magang ini hanya menjadi sebuah pelajaran tentang jatuh cinta yang berakhir?

Aku meninggal di hari aku memenangkan Penghargaan Doktor Medis Global. Tiga jam setelah kematianku, orang tua, kakak laki-laki, dan tunanganku baru saja pulang dari pesta ulang tahun ke-16 adik perempuanku. Ketika adikku mengunggah foto keluarga kami saat merayakan ulang tahunnya di media sosial, aku sedang terbaring di ruang bawah tanah yang tertutup rapat dan berlumuran darah. Aku mencoba menggunakan lidahku untuk menggeser layar ponsel dan meminta bantuan. Di antara kontak darurat, hanya tunanganku yang menjawab panggilanku. Artinya orang tua dan kakakku telah memblokir nomorku. Begitu telepon diangkat, tunanganku hanya mengucapkan satu kalimat, “Karin, pesta ulang tahun Lina yang ke-16 itu sangat penting. Jangan pakai alasan nggak masuk akal untuk cari perhatian kami dan bersikap manja lagi!” Dia menutup telepon dan memutus harapan terakhirku untuk bertahan hidup. Jantungku berhenti berdetak karena nada sibuk telepon. Ini adalah ke-100 kalinya mereka memilih adikku, ke-100 kalinya mereka mengabaikanku, mengecewakanku, dan ini juga yang terakhir. Aku terbaring di dalam genangan darahku sendiri, merasakan napasku perlahan berhenti. Mereka mengira aku kabur dari rumah lagi sebagai alasan untuk melampiaskan ketidakpuasanku. Mereka pikir bahwa selama mereka memberiku pelajaran, aku akan kembali dengan patuh seperti 99 kali sebelumnya. Sayangnya, itu tidak akan terjadi kali ini. Karena aku tidak pernah meninggalkan rumah, aku terus terbaring di ruang bawah tanah rumahku.

Rangga Wiratama, Kepala Desa Sukamukti, mendapati sesuatu yang tak masuk akal terjadi di rumahnya. Sebuah hajatan besar diselenggarakan atas namanya—tanpa seizin, tanpa perintah, dan tanpa penjelasan. Undangan tersebar ke seluruh warga desa dengan satu perintah mutlak: semua wajib hadir dan dilarang pulang sebelum diizinkan. Sejak hari pertama hajatan berlangsung, kejanggalan demi kejanggalan muncul. Musik gamelan yang seharusnya rusak kembali berbunyi. Dapur rumah terkunci dari dalam, menguar bau anyir yang tak wajar. Tamu-tamu berdatangan dengan wajah kosong, patuh tanpa bertanya. Beberapa orang yang hadir… tidak pernah terlihat lagi. Rangga berusaha mencari jawaban, namun setiap pintu informasi tertutup rapat. Para sesepuh desa justru menatapnya seolah ia bagian dari kesepakatan lama yang telah dilupakan. Perlahan, ia menyadari bahwa jabatannya sebagai kepala desa bukan sekadar posisi pemerintahan, melainkan peran penting dalam ritual turun-temurun yang mengikat seluruh desa. Hajatan itu ternyata adalah bagian dari janji leluhur—sebuah perjanjian kelam untuk menjaga keselamatan desa dengan harga nyawa manusia. Dan rumah kepala desa selalu menjadi pusatnya. Selalu. Di tengah teror yang semakin nyata, Rangga dihadapkan pada pilihan paling kejam: memutus ritual dan menghancurkan desanya, atau meneruskan hajatan dengan mengorbankan orang-orang yang ia lindungi. Namun semakin ia berusaha melawan, semakin jelas bahwa hajatan ini tidak pernah benar-benar berakhir. Ia hanya menunggu untuk diulang, dengan kepala desa yang baru… atau korban yang berbeda. Sebab di Sukamukti, tradisi lebih berkuasa daripada kebenaran, dan undangan hajatan selalu menemukan jalannya sendiri.

Everyone in the underworld knew Rosalie Thorne, the "Thorn Principessa" of the North. Wild, rebellious, notorious. Street racing, high-stakes gambling, guns, and drinking, she had mastered them all. The rose-and-thorn tattoo on the nape of her neck drove countless men wild. But what they didn't know was that for Rocco, the new mob boss of the South, a single sentence, "I prefer a more obedient woman," was all it took. At his word, I had the tattoo lasered off and swapped my leathers for long, conservative dresses. I am Rosalie. For five years, I hid my identity and played the porcelain doll Rocco wanted. Until the night he eliminated all his rivals and was crowned the new Don of the South. That was when he let his men bow to another woman, hailing her as their "Donna." I watched Rocco. The same hands that had just executed a traitor were now gently placing a pair of red high heels on the feet of his adoptive sister, Vivian. "Rosalie, she has a temper. She'll make a scene if she doesn't get the title." "You're the good one, the obedient one. Just let her have this." That day, I walked straight out into the rain and never looked back. I was never truly obedient. I just made myself smaller for him. My family had already chosen a husband for me. They had been waiting five years, just for me to say yes.
