Joe Metheny Burger Stand

Aku adalah seorang fotografer khusus foto pribadi. Malam itu, sahabatku sejak masa kuliah memintaku untuk memotret dia dan istrinya dalam sebuah sesi foto pribadi. Awalnya, semuanya terasa normal, sampai dia mengajukan permintaan yang benar-benar aneh. "Wade, bisa nggak kamu penuhi permintaan istriku sekali ini saja?" Kalimat itu membuatku tertegun. Aku tidak tahu apakah dia serius atau hanya bercanda. Namun, sorot matanya menunjukkan bahwa dia bersungguh-sungguh. Cerita ini pun menjadi awal dari sesuatu yang tak terduga. Apakah permintaannya benar-benar sebatas profesionalisme fotografi atau ada maksud lain di baliknya?

James, my promised soulmate, shattered his vow of eternal loyalty on my eighteenth birthday. He forged a bond with another, the High Elder's daughter, a union that secured his ascension to Alpha. Yet, he craved more, demanding I become his mistress, his threats aimed at my mother's fragile health. Then, fate, in its cruel irony, thrust me into the path of Michael, the formidable Alpha King. Our encounter was a night of raw passion, a moment that felt destined. When my mother's illness worsened and I and I desperately needed funds for her treatment, I sought him out. I found myself driven to him. Stripped of all pride, I knelt before him, pleading. "Please, Alpha King, help me..."

I turn down a dream research program at Hefford University just so I can stay and help my debt-ridden boyfriend run a burger stand. This time, he says he's serious. I give him all the money I've saved up over the years, hoping we can build a better future together. A few hours later, I discover he's forgotten two hundred dollars in the drawer. I grab the money and run out, hoping to catch him. What I catch is a scene straight out of a corny movie. The loan sharks who used to beat and threaten him are now bowing and nodding deferentially. "Sir, I guess we don't need to show up at your house anymore, right?" Kurt Saunders rubs his temples and replies, "Yup. Anna gave up her entire future for me. She even turned down an opportunity to study at Hefford just to help me pay off my debts." Before he even finishes, his childhood friend lets out a giggle. "Kurt, that's still not enough. You'll only know if she really doesn't mind being poor if she sticks around through a year of flipping burgers without any complaints." Kurt looks at her sly expression and lets out a helpless laugh. "Alright, we'll do it your way. One more year of pretending. Anna would never leave me anyway." I stand there, listening to the sound of my own heart shatter. Kurt, you think I'm giving up my future for you, but it's still mine, and I can take it back.

When I find out that Joe Herring—the man I've loved for ten years—is planning a grand proposal, I'm so thrilled I can't sleep a wink that night. But the next day, everyone in the pack is buzzing about how Alpha Joe just proposed to my stepsister, Nora Safford. He comes to me afterward, trying to explain. "It's not even real, Anna. Nora doesn't have anyone in the pack. I'm just doing her a favor. "Don't worry. I'll break it off before the mate-bonding ceremony next week. Then we'll have our ceremony, just like we planned."

Sudah hampir sekitar 2 minggu proses pencarian dilakukan oleh tim penyelamat yang dikerahkan oleh Joe untuk mencari Angel, Samuel dan juga anak perempuan Jordi yang tak lain adalah Draniela. Angel dan Samuel melompat ke laut untuk menyelamatkan Draniela yang terjatuh dari kapal pesiar. 10 unit Helikopter dan 20 unit kapal penyelamat turun ke TKP untuk mencari mereka bertiga. Bahkan, komandan dari tim penyelamat menambahkan 10 unit Helikopter lagi untuk ikut serta dalam proses pencarian tersebut. Tapi tetap saja, tanda-tanda dari mereka bertiga belum juga terlihat sampai sekarang. Joe dan yang lainnya sudah di kembalikan ke pantai untuk menghindari hal-hal yang tidak diinginkan. Lalu, Helikopter unit 5 mendarat di pinggir pantai. Melihat itu, Joe, Chelsea dan yang lainnya langsung berlari menghampiri Helikopter yang baru saja tiba. “Pak! Bagaimana? Sudah ada tanda-tanda dari teman saya!?” Tanya Fanny dengan raut wajah yang tampak cemas. “Pak! Bagaimana dengan anak saya!?” Tanya Desya. Tapi, seorang dari tim penyelamat yang baru saja turun dari Helikopter itu tidak menjawab sepatah katapun. Dia hanya menggelengkan kepala dengan raut wajah yang sedih. Melihat itu, Fanny langsung lemas dan terduduk di tanah dengan wajahnya yang mulai memerah dan seketika, air matanya menetes.

After my brother, Don Matteo Sabella, finds out I have a crush on our family Consigliere, Lorenzo Gallo, for years, he spikes Lorenzo's wine and has him delivered to my bed. That night, he pushes deep into me, and we lose ourselves in each other. When the sky begins to lighten, Lorenzo stays, kisses my temple, and asks me to marry him. Now that we are married, he is all those things—gentle, perfect, and fiercely possessive—handing me almost everything I desire. I truly believe I've landed the kind of love every woman in our world dreams about. That illusion lasts until the day Matteo gets taken out in an assassination. After that, Lorenzo steps up as the Sabellas' new Don. It isn't long before he says he has family business to handle and disappears overseas for three years. Even on the day I deliver our daughter, Luna Gallo, he can't come home because of some emergency. Then I hear a recording that's blowing up on the family's internal network. His Consigliere chuckles and asks, "Don, what do you think has changed the most since you took over the family?" Lorenzo answers in this offhand tone, "It's definitely the fact that I can finally give those I care about most a home. But it also means I'm even more worried that Eliana and Sofia will be targeted because of me…" My blood runs cold. Eliana Rossi is his adopted sister, and Sofia is her daughter. Turns out every business trip, every absence, every so-called emergency Lorenzo has is about them. He has another home out there. That night, with my hands shaking, I dial the encrypted line. "Matteo, we've found the traitor. Isn't it time you stopped pretending to be dead and came to take Luna and me away?"

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."
