Broke, unemployed, and determined to help his ailing mother, he falls on the good graces of a wealthy benefactor who is willing to give Shaw a job at his mansion in order to pay off his mother’s debts. Suddenly finding himself surrounded by lavish riches, he has no idea what his duties truly entail until he’s sent to the rose garden and meets the tragically mutilated Isobel. This Beauty and the Beast story holds true to the core of the fable while shaking off the element of fantasy and dragging it into present-day reality.

“You are not going to disrespect me! She is a commoner, and I’d rather die than let you be with her!” Isaac’s father was very loud and his tone was threatening. “Then you better drop dead right now, because I’m sick of being caged by the standards and rules that this family has set for me! I’m sick of being a robot built for the sole purpose of being the heir to the Ford fortune!” Isaac spat the words in his father’s face.

‘Kau lumpuh! Kau hanya bisa duduk di kursi roda sialan itu, dan kau pikir aku akan tahan tidak mendapat nafkah batin? Lebih baik kau mati sejak awal, agar tidak menyusahkan orang lain! Kau laki-laki lumpuh! Aku tak sudi menjadi istrimu!’ Hingga sekarang kalimat itu masih terus terngiang di telinga Piter, dan membuat rahangnya mengetat. Napas Piter menderu sedang dadanya naik turun. Kedua tangan saling meremas, membuktikan kemarahannya sudah tak bisa ditahan lagi. Lantas, tanpa menghiraukan jeritan pilu dari wanita itu, dia mendekat ke sisi ranjang. “Tolong lepaskan aku. Aku bukan Megan yang kau cari. Tolong lepaskan aku, kau tidak boleh melakukan ini padaku.” Telinga Jupiter mendengarnya, tapi hatinya sama sekali tidak tersentuh. Sigap dia buka sabuk yang melingkar di pinggangnya dan menggulung ujungnya di telapak tangan. “Katakan sekali lagi,” ucapnya, dan semakin dekat pada wanita yang terikat di atas ranjang. “Aku bukan Megan, tolong lepaskan aku.” Sleb! “Argh ...!” Sebuah cambukan mendarat di kaki putih milik gadis itu, yang diiringi dengan jeritan pilunya. “Katakan sekali lagi,” ulang Piter, mengangkat sabuk yang dia jadikan sebagai cambuk. Lima tahun yang lalu, ketika Piter kecelakaan dan membuat kakinya lumpuh sementara, Megan memasukkan lelaki asing ke rumahnya. Wanita gila itu dengan tega bercinta di salah satu kamar rumah milik Jupiter. Lelaki yang saat itu sangat mencintai istrinya, tidak menyangka jika Megan tega mendesah di bawah tubuh lelaki lain. **** Ikuti author di IG butiran_debugn dan FB Ame mey, untuk mendapatkan info karya lainnya, ya..
