História Triste

Alyssa Hart is out of options. Drowning in medical debt, with her mother’s life hanging in the balance, she’s desperate for a solution. When an unexpected email offers her an interview at the mysterious Valentino Enterprises, she doesn’t hesitate. But what she walks into isn’t a job opportunity... it’s a marriage contract. The powerful and feared Valentino Crime family needs a wife for their heir, Stephano Valentino. Cold, ruthless, and utterly uninterested in love, Stephano has discarded every woman his parents have introduced him to. They don’t expect Alyssa to be any different. The deal is simple: marry Stephano, bear his heir, and in two years, she’ll be free, with enough money to ensure her mother’s survival. There’s only one rule: this is not a real marriage. Stephano can do as he pleases, but Alyssa is bound to him alone. She should hate him. He gives her every reason to. But the longer she stays, the more she begins to see through the cracks in his armour. Beneath his icy exterior is something broken, something she can’t help but want to fix. And Stephano, who swore he would never care, finds himself drawn to the woman he was never meant to love. But in their world, love is a weakness, and breaking the rules always comes with a price...

Di tengah terpaan musim dingin, Seren Eira menemukan pria tampan yang tergeletak di jalanan. Pria itu hampir membeku terbungkus selimut salju. Dengan belas kasih, Seren membawanya pulang dan memberinya nama "Theron", karena dia bilang tidak memiliki nama. Theron bukanlah pria biasa. Meski parasnya begitu tampan, dia dianggap "idiot" atau "setengah-setengah" oleh orang-orang sekitar. Sampai suatu malam, segalanya berubah. Theron yang polos dan lugu tiba-tiba berubah drastis. Pria itu memancarkan aura mengerikan yang tak pernah Seren bayangkan. Seperti predator yang membuka mata setelah tidur panjang. "Siapa kau?" gumam Seren gemetar. "Tak ingat? Padahal wajah ini seharusnya sulit kau lupakan." Mata Theron berbinar dengan ekspresi asing yang terlihat untuk pertama kali. Mulut yang biasanya sedikit terbuka seperti orang bodoh, kini membentuk lengkungan seringai kuat. "Pergilah." Menyaksikan sosok asing yang ada dalam diri pria itu, Seren merasa bulu kuduknya berdiri. "Ke mana aku akan pergi? Apa kau ingin membuang 'lintah' yang telah menghisapmu selama ini? Bukankah kau sangat senang saat aku menjilatmu hingga kering?"

A familiar hand reached out toward me. His hand. Jonathan’s. Maybe Nathaniel now. The man I had kissed. The man I had touched. The man who had just married my sister. “Oh God, what have I done?” **************************************** She left without a word. Ten years later, an invitation brings her back… To face the sister she abandoned… A secret that was never supposed to surface. And a man she should have never touched. When Celeste Marlowe receives an unexpected wedding invitation from the baby sister she walked away from a decade ago, she expects cold shoulders and buried resentment…not a fiery one-night stand with a stranger who makes her forget everything. But the truth comes crashing in. He’s not a stranger. He’s the groom. Her sister’s groom. Now, trapped between the sins of her past and a secret she can’t outrun, life hurls her into something far more dangerous than heartbreak, a tangled web of power, lies, and blood-soaked secrets. Because in Velmont City, nothing is ever just personal. And some families don’t forgive… They own.

His first love barged into my office and stood before me, mocking, "He doesn't love you at all." I rolled my eyes. "I don't know whether he loves me, but I am Mrs. Brooke now. And who are you, exactly?" I was surprised that there was still someone so clueless in this day and age. Marriage was all about mutual benefit; the idea of love was downright ridiculous.
