Hopes And Dreams

Three days after the healer told me I was terminally ill, Keith Bradford—the alpha's heir—finally completed his training and returned to the pack. Rumor had it, he was back for his future mate. The alpha had chosen a perfect match for him—a well-bred, talented girl, two years younger than Keith. Sweet, gentle, never even had a boyfriend. The complete opposite of me, with exes as countless as the stars. It was not until a week after Keith returned that I finally saw him, outside the treatment room. He had not changed much—sharp features, high nose bridge, deep, defined eyes. Just as impossibly handsome as he was the first time we kissed. Almost as if sensing my gaze, Keith looked up, sharp and alert. Our eyes met—and for a second, it felt like the air froze. Everyone thought I would recklessly ruin Keith’s engagement, just like the wild girl I used to be. But what they didn’t realize was… my time was running out. I stepped forward, calm and composed, a faint smile on my lips. "It's been a while… my dear brother." I could not help but whisper in my heart, "These few days will be our final farewell, Keith."

"Dandelion beterbangan menghiasi langit biru musim panas. Kelopak kecil yang seputih kapas tampak menyatu dengan awan. Jauh tinggi ia terbang mengikuti hembusan angin yang bertiup semilir. Di mana pun kau berada, sejauh apapun jarak di antara kita, kuharap salah satu dandelion itu akan sampai padamu. Kuharap kau tahu aku di sini menunggumu, merindukanmu, dan mencintaimu. Waktu yang terus berlalu mengubah segalanya. Namun perasaanku masih sama. Apa kau juga merasakan hal yang sama? Di tengah hamparan dandelion putih berhiaskan sinar mentari senja, aku menunggumu." Yoshino Izumi membenci segalanya tentang Jepang. Jika bukan karena permintaan Sang Ayah, pemuda itu tak pernah ingin kembali ke sana. Bagi Izumi tempat itu hanya menyimpan kenangan buruk akan pengkhianatan seorang wanita yang pernah dipanggilnya“Ibu”dengan sepenuh hati. Namun pertemuannya dengan seorang gadis berambut silver, perlahan membuat Izumi melupakan perasaan itu. Di saat yang sama tanpa Izumi sadari, ternyata ada sosok lain yang juga berharap untuk bertemu kembali dengan dirinya.

All Althea Lewis had ever known was a simple, solitary life—until someone informed her that she had inherited a company from the father she never knew existed, along with a marriage proposal from the most irritating man ever: Matthias Cox. As Althea entered this new life, she agreed to marry Matthias under a few conditions: no physical contact unless it's absolutely necessary, and no emotional attachment. Only a fake vow to survive. Matthias might not be as simple and cold as he appears, but love isn't part of the plan. Will Althea be able to keep her life and heart intact for two years, or will she fail miserably because of unexpected love?

Nagtagpo ang landas nina Miyu at Kyle sa hindi inaasahan subalit perpektong pagkakataon. Kinailangan ni Miyu ng lalaking magpapanggap na nobyo niya upang maitaboy ang nakaiiritang manliligaw na si Armand.

Little did she know that the pizza delivery boy was actually the owner of the biggest pizza chain in the country- Kyle Padrepio. Coincidentally, Kyle was also thinking of a way to stop his sister from pimping her friends on him. Kaya pumayag ito sa nais ni Miyu- provided that she acts as his fake girlfriend, too. Kaya perpektong-perpekto ang pagtatagpo nilang iyon. They both needed each other for the fake relationship. And at first- they enjoyed the game. Until one of them fell in love and the other wanted out.

And here I was, seated on the balcony, staring at the rain pitter and patter against the glass coverage walls with my bodyguard seated there, a book in hand. I don't know his problem. I know from his attitude that he wasn't happy to “babysit” a twenty year old, but he could have just ended his contract. He never paid me a single attention and was always reading, but strangely, he was always alert. I was the abomination he must never look at. And it made my blood boil. But not for long, though. Because every time I set eyes on him, I melt. It is forbidden, but who cares? I want him, but does he want me?

[MATURE] "BRENGSEK! SIAPA YANG BERANI MELEMPAR BENDA MENJIJIKAN INI KE KEPALAKU?" "AKU BENAR-BENAR AKAN MEMBUATNYA BABAK BELUR!" Mataku terbuka lebar mendengar umpatan kasar barusan. Aku buru-buru memunguti bukuku dan berusaha berdiri dengan bertumpu pada kedua lututku. Rasa dingin menyengat telapak kaki kananku begitu aku berhasil berdiri tegak. Aku melirik ke bawah dan menemukan kaki kananku hanya terbalut kaus kaki tanpa sepatu boots. "Aku harus membuat perhitungan dengan pemilik sepatu boots sialan ini! Berani-beraninya melempar sepatu boots ke kepalaku!" Dia Jason Butler, playboy sekaligus brandalan yang paling digilai para murid wanita di Heigberk High School. Astaga, aku dalam bencana! Jika di dalam donggeng sang pangeran mencari pemilik sepatu kaca untuk dijadikan ratunya, di sini kita akan menemukan pangeran yang berkeliaran mencari 'Cinderella-nya' untuk dijadikan 'samsak tinju'. Atau mungkin pemeran utama wanita kita, Steffy yang malang dapat merubah kisah yang tragis ini menjadi romansa manis. Mari lihat bagaimana akhirnya.
