Ian Rutledge

One reckless night. One dangerous secret. I slept with the one man I was never supposed to touch. Ethan Van Horn. Billionaire. Ruthless. And my sister’s fiancé. Now I’m carrying his child, and our powerful families have only one solution. Marriage. Our union is nothing but a contract to bury the scandal. No love. No promises. Just two strangers trapped under the same roof. He hates me for ruining his future. I hate him for looking at me like I stole something that was never mine. But living in his penthouse makes one thing terrifyingly clear. The line between hate and desire is dangerously thin.

In order to avenge Lily Bauer, an orphan staying with the Frostfang pack, Ethan Hawkins doesn't show up at the agreed time on the day of our betrothal party. He only sends his Beta to my door with a message. "Last time, you injured Lily with wolfsbane pollen, humiliating her at the pack gathering. Today is just a lesson. Apologize to Lily and send over the necklace she likes, and then we'll get betrothed." Overnight, I become the laughingstock of the entire pack. My brother, Ryan Fuller, says, "Lily just lost her parents. Let her vent her anger. Ethan is meant to be your mate anyway. Delaying your betrothal by a few days is no big deal." Really? It isn't a big deal? The Frostfang pack's ancestral token isn't something just anyone can covet. I turn around and grip the wolf-shaped crest offered by the Blackwood pack. "I accept the Blackwood pack's proposal for a mate alliance."

“A weak omega, a freak that should have never lived, let alone be mated to someone like me," I, Torian Valon, reject Maya Black… and hereby banish her from this pack.” She was left to die — rejected, broken, and forgotten. But they didn’t know the chaos they’d unleashed. Maya Black, once a powerless outcast, now walks the line between vengeance and destiny Betrayed by her own kind, hunted for a power she never asked for, she sees the darkness of the heart of wolves. And now, she must decide — if the world is worth saving... or burning to the ground.

Two shots ring. One dies with confusion, regret, and guilt. The other is left with hatred, pain, unresolved feelings, and shattered trust. When great power clashes with an equally great power, an overwhelming explosion is imminent, and many people are bound to get hurt. Especially those at the very center of the explosion, like Chen Kamman. When he was barely eighteen, he had to deal with the pain of losing two of the most important people in his life, taking over his father's dynasty, and fighting to maintain the Chen family's control in one of the deadliest mafia organizations in the world. Years later, he has made history, becoming the youngest cartel leader to ever dominate the system. After all he has been through, he has grown indifferent to everything: cold-hearted, savage, and impossible to hurt like before. But when Dian Aoki, someone he thought he had killed, appears in his life ten years later, everything he has built suddenly comes tumbling to the ground. All the memories and pain he had buried deep within him come floating to the surface, taking him back to the starting point again. The appearance of this person equally causes a major stir in the entire organization. Their very presence threatens to overturn the entire system and Chen Kamman's world.

Sejak Zaman kuno, jalan kultivasi selalu di penuhi duri dan darah. Hanya mereka yang memiliki bakat luar biasa, akar spiritual langka serta dukungan sekte besar yang mampu menapaki tangga menuju puncak. Sisanya hanya menjadi batu pijakan, mayat mayat di sepanjang jalan. Ye Tian, seorang pemuda dari desa terpencil lahir dengan akar spiritual cacat. Di mata orang lain, ia hanyalah sampah yang tak mungkin melangkah di dunia kultivasi. Tak ada sekte yang mau menerimanya bahkan tak ada guru yang mau membimbingnya. Hidupkannya hanya di takdirkan sebagai rakyat jelata yang terlupakan zaman. Namun, takdir berubah pada suatu malam batu misterius dari zaman kuno jatuh ke tangannya. Batu itu menyimpan rahasia besar yang dimana di dalam batu itu menyimpan tehnik-tehnik kultivasi yang pernah menggemparkan sembilan negri ribuan tahun lalu, tetapi kini banyak di lupakan bahkan oleh sekte sekte besar sekalipun. Sejak saat itu, Ye Tian tidak lagi berjalan di jalan yang di tentukan orang lain , melainkan menapaki jalannya sendiri. Di tengah dunia yang di penuhi pertarungan sekte, ambisi klan bangsawan dan kembalinya bangkitnya iblis kuno, Ye Tian hanya memiliki satu tekad: untuk melawan, menentang, dan terus melangkah. Dari pemuda yang di remehkan, ia akan menjadi sosok yang menentang langit dan bumi. Tetapi jalan menuju keabadian bukanlah perkara yang mudah. Setiap langkahnya akan di penuhi darah, penghianatan, serta ujian dari surga itu sendiri. "Jika dunia menganggapku sampah, maka aku akan membuat dunia berlutut. Jika langit menghalangiku, maka aku akan menghancurkan langit. Jalan ini adalah jalanku, langkah demi selangkah menuju keabadian!"

Caught in a ruthless conspiracy, Maisie Vanderbilt lost her chastity and was forced to move out of her home. Six years later, she returned to the country with three little rugrats tagging along, ready for revenge. To her surprise, her adorable angels turned out to be much more resourceful than herself. They tracked down their birth father, a man powerful enough to protect her, and had him kidnapped. “Mommy, we kidnapped Daddy and brought him home!” The man gazed down at the three miniature versions of himself. Then, he backed her up against the corner of the wall. With a brow raised, he suddenly smirked. “Since we already have three, how about another?” Maisie retorted, “Scr*w you!”

"Mau nggak?" Aku tidak sengaja mengirim pesan tentang janji manikur dan pedikur ke kakak laki-laki sahabatku, padahal seharusnya pesan itu untuk sahabatku sendiri. Sepuluh menit kemudian, aku menerima balasan dari kakaknya: [Mireya ada di bawah, turunlah.] Aku tidak menyangka, selain usianya yang sudah matang, ternyata bagian lain miliknya juga besar. Malam itu, gairah meluap dan semuanya nyaris lepas kendali. Setelah tersadar, dia berjanji akan bertanggung jawab kepadaku. Dia sangat memanjakanku. Apa pun yang kuminta, selalu dia penuhi. Akan tetapi, ada satu syarat, yaitu aku tidak boleh mengaku bahwa aku adalah kekasihnya di depan umum. Lima tahun kemudian, dia pulang membawa seorang wanita. Sambil merangkul pinggang wanita itu, dia menyuruhku memanggilnya "Kakak Ipar". Aku bertanya kepadanya, "Kalau dia kakak iparku, lalu apa arti lima tahun penantianku untukmu?" Pria itu tersenyum santai, tetapi kata-kata yang keluar dari mulutnya membuat sekujur tubuhku terasa membeku. "Menunggu? Memangnya aku pernah memintamu untuk menunggu?" "Aurelia Faresta, ke depannya, jangan pernah lagi mencintai orang dengan begitu tulus kayak gini. Itu sungguh mengerikan." Ternyata, seluruh cinta yang kuberikan dengan segenap jiwa ragaku, hanyalah sebuah beban yang ingin dia hindari. Aku pun mulai mencoba untuk tidak lagi mencarinya, belajar untuk melepaskannya dan akhirnya … pergi meninggalkannya. Namun, seminggu kemudian, saat aku sedang mengucapkan janji suci pernikahan dengan pria lain …. Sosok pria yang dahulu begitu arogan dan penuh gairah itu, kini berdiri di bawah altar dengan mata yang memerah.

RISE ABOVE THE ZODIACS SERIES | Dos - PISCES Free Phillian Zodiac is a frustrated painter and a full-time fisherman. Mula gabi hanggang madaling araw ay nasa gitna ito ng karagatan kasama ang mga tauhan para mangisda, at sa umaga naman ay tulog at nagtatago sa araw. In the afternoon, when the sky is red, he would go out of his room and sit on his veranda overlooking the mountains and the sea, and from there, he would start painting.

Isang hapon, habang nasa veranda siya ng kaniyang silid at ipinipinta ang karagatan ay may nakita siyang palutang-lutang na kahoy sa dalampasigan. Using his binoculars, he learns that it isn't just a piece of wood but a raft with a person on it. An unconscious--probably almost dead person who might need some help. Naisip niyang baka isa iyon sa mga mangingisdang nagkaroon ng aksidente sa gitna ng karagatan. At dahil siya ang nakakita ay responsibilidad niyang tulungan ang taong iyon, lalo at nasa bahagi ito ng beach na pag-aari na ng pamilya niya. Nang marating niya ang baybayin ay saka niya napagtantong hindi mangingisda ang naroon, but a woman wearing a bridal gown. Nakadapa ito at nanginginig sa lamig. He saved her and brought her to his place. His female assistant nursed her, and when she woke up the next morning, she claimed to have no memory of the night before. Naisip niya na maaaring nagka-trauma ito kaya nalimot ang nangyari, pero anong gulat niya nang magkaharap sila sa unang pagkakataon ay bigla siya nitong pinagmumumura at binato ng kung anu-anong madampot nito. Odd, but she knows him, and she is furious at him. Bakit daw hindi siya sumipot sa kasal nila? Like, what the f*ck?
