Ingatan Ikan Mas Koki

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."

“Heidi, call me a monster. Call me a beast. Fuck, call me the Devil. It does not change the way I feel about you.” “How about the way ‘I’ feel about you?” I whisper. “This hatred—built from love, passion… trust.” Hunter gently takes my hand and interlocks it with his before placing both on his chest. He then leans down to bump his forehead on mine, making me close my eyes and sigh as it drives in me sensations that cause me to crumble. “I love you, Heidi…” he whispers—doesn’t do good for my eyes bleeding more tears. “…and I will let the world burn for you.” ~ H E I D I I’ve lived twenty-two years but never seen a man like Hunter.

But I know I can’t hang between these feelings forever. I have to choose, and quickly. H U N T E R I am told she is dangerous, a being forbidden from existence. Yet, I find myself protecting her.

To be that creature feared by all, I need to be the man with nothing to lose. But now I have so much to lose.

He shoved me from an altitude of ten thousand meters. I was utterly destroyed. This time, I pretended not to notice the deception and completed the wedding with the fake groom. I wanted to see for myself how, without the Smith family's support, he intended to save the already crumbling Larson Group.
