Aku dan sahabat masa kecilku sama-sama mengalami kecelakaan. Saat tersadar kembali, dia yang sudah kucintai selama bertahun-tahun itu justru kehilangan ingatannya. Sementara aku tidak terluka sedikit pun, tetapi di dalam tubuhku … malah dimasuki jiwa nenekku yang sudah meninggal lama. “Dasar bocah sialan! Beraninya berpura-pura amnesia untuk menipu cucuku yang baik. Kalau saja aku masih berkeliaran di dunia orang hidup, pasti sudah kupatahkan kakinya!” Aku melotot kebingungan. Suara Nenek masih terus berteriak di dalam kepalaku. “Di kehidupan sebelumnya, cucu kesayanganku ini dibuat menderita oleh Lisa. Bertahun-tahun bersamanya hidup dalam kesialan hingga terkena serangan jantung dan hampir mati. Tetapi dia malah menemani Josh merayakan ulang tahunnya dengan bahagia. Menyebalkan!” “Sayangku, kali ini kakekmu akan mengurus pernikahanmu. Jangan sampai kamu memilih Lisa. Pilih Vina saja, anak itu sangat lumayan!” Detik berikutnya, kakek bersama beberapa tetua keluarga benar-benar masuk ke ruang rawat. Mereka meletakkan foto para pewaris dari empat keluarga besar di hadapanku dan memintaku memilih salah satunya sebagai calon istri. Tanpa ragu, aku memilih musuh bebuyutanku ... Vina. Aku adalah cucu kesayangan Nenek. Jika Nenek bilang bahwa Lisa tidak mencintaiku, maka aku tidak akan memilihnya lagi.

Because I was a cheapskate, I rented a cheap apartment. The catch? Someone had died in it. The soundproofing of the house was bad, and I could hear my neighbor’s wife moaning every night. But my other neighbor told me that there was no one living in the apartment next to mine.

My husband, Hank, is dead.  On our wedding anniversary, he ventured out in the pouring rain to buy me a cake, only to be hit by a truck. His body was badly mangled in the crash.  My sister-in-law, Lyra, called me a killer, claiming that I did not deserve Hank’s inheritance.  My mother-in-law, Judy, kicked me out of the house.  Overwhelmed by grief and guilt, I often wondered if he would still be alive had I stopped him that day. Eventually, emotions gripped me, and I was diagnosed with cancer.  Judy came to visit me on my deathbed. “You’re an idiot to believe everything!”  She threw a family photo in my face.  The shock and anger were more than I could handle, and I breathed my last.  It turned out that Hank was never dead. He had a child with his old flame.  When I opened my eyes once more, I returned to the day my husband faked his death.

You want a divorce?" Louis’s voice was cold, unreadable. "Yes," I typed on my iPad. "And this time, I won’t beg." For five years, I was nothing more than a ghost in my own marriage. A substitute bride, a deaf and mute wife who meant nothing to him. Louis never looked at me, never touched me. He paraded his mistresses in front of me, making sure I knew my place, nowhere. But I had secrets of my own. I wasn’t deaf. And I wasn’t weak. When I was kidnapped, I expected Louis to come for me. He didn’t. His indifference shattered me, but it also set me free. I made a deal with the devil, a dangerous man who helped me blackmail my own husband. If Louis wouldn’t let me go, I would destroy him. But things spiraled out of control. Now, I’m trapped. Not just between two dangerous men but between my heart and my freedom. Because despite everything… I think I still love him.

Flynn Greg has lived her entire life in the shadows — poisoned, lied to, and betrayed by the very people she calls family. At 23, she believes Roselyn is her mother, unaware the woman murdered her real mother during childbirth and stole her life. For years, Roselyn’s poison kept Flynn’s wolf weak, ensuring she’d never rise, never fight, and never claim what was hers. But fate isn’t so easily silenced. Betrayed by her half-sister Celine and rejected by her mate, Ranon, a power-hungry wolf desperate to marry into the Alpha bloodline — Flynn is drugged and framed in a twisted scheme to disgrace her. Left powerless, humiliated, and marked for banishment, she should have been broken. Instead, the night brings her something beautiful. A one-night encounter with an emotionally unavailable, secretive stranger named Ray sets off a bond neither of them expected. But Ray isn’t who he seems — and neither is Ranon. Unknown to them all, the two men are twins separated at birth by their own mother, born into a brutal bloodline of ruthless ambition. As secrets unravel and Flynn’s dormant powers surge to life, she uncovers the horrifying truth about her past, her lineage, and the prophecy she was born to fulfill. The girl they called weak is the heir and greatest Alpha wolf no one saw coming… and she’s out for blood. Now, Flynn must decide: will she surrender to her heart’s pull toward Ray, a man carrying unaware secrets of his own — or solely focus on the vengeance that she had sworn to dish? One thing is certain: those who betrayed her will kneel, and the pack that cast her aside will learn the true power of a wolf who was never meant to be caged.

Di meja makan, salah satu sahabat suamiku tiba-tiba berbicara dalam Bahasa Italia. “Tiga tahun lalu, demi membantu Liora mendapatkan surat damai dari Amara, kamu menikahi Amara dengan pesta yang megah. Selama ini aku melihat sendiri, Amara makin lama makin peduli padamu. Tapi kamu masih saja terus membohonginya. Jelas-jelas itu pil KB, tapi kamu bilang obat depresi. Kamu nggak takut, kalau suatu hari dia tahu kebenarannya… hatinya akan hancur?” Suamiku tersenyum pahit, wajahnya dipenuhi kerumitan. “Seorang anak yang nggak diharapkan, nggak perlu lahir ke dunia. Soal Amara… selama dia nggak mengganggu kebahagiaan Liora, aku akan menepati janjiku, melindunginya seumur hidupku.” Tak ada yang tahu, demi bisa mengikuti langkah suamiku, aku sudah menguasai Bahasa Italia sejak lama. Aku berdiri di ambang ruang tamu. Bekas ciuman masih membekas di leherku. Tanganku menggenggam obat yang katanya “obat depresi”, padahal… Tubuhku membeku. Jadi… semua rasa yang suamiku tunjukkan padaku hanyalah kebohongan semata. Yang kukira sebagai penyelamatan, rupanya hanya tipu daya yang direncanakan dengan rapi. Kalau begitu, aku memilih untuk merelakan mereka semua.

After giving birth to Alpha Wesley Silvermoon's pup, I fell into severe postpartum depression. Whenever the scent he left on me began to fade, I couldn't help but have the urge to hurt myself. It was Wesley who held me tight in his arms, kissing my forehead repeatedly, saying, "Don't be afraid, Maggie. The pup and I will stay with you, always." Every morning, he took me to see a therapist. In the afternoon, he handled the pack's affairs. At night, he fed Brett the pup himself. The dark circles beneath his eyes grew heavier by the day, yet he never once complained. Until one day. Brett was crying for his mother, while I hid in the bathroom, hurting myself. When Wesley saw what happened, he completely lost it. He grabbed me by the throat viciously. "If you don't want a pup, you shouldn't have had one! You gave birth to it, but you can't even take care of it! You don't deserve to be a mother!" He bellowed, "How much longer are you going to torment this family? You want to die so badly? Fine! I'll help you!" The moment he said that, he instantly came back to his senses. He broke his wrist and apologized to me. I didn't say anything, merely staring blankly at the phone that had fallen to the floor. The screen was still lit. 37 missed calls. All from the same name. Rowena Sawthorne. She was someone who had recently returned to the pack. Wesley's first love from his youth. She was healthy, beautiful, confident. She and Wesley were once the celebrity couple that everyone admired. Even Brett, whom I had nearly died giving birth to, would smile when she held him in her arms. Perhaps only she was worthy of being his mate, worthy of being Brett's mother. Maybe, this was for the best. At last, I could die without any worry.

My family has always considered me a harbinger of misfortune. It's all because I can see a countdown to my relatives' deaths. I tell them when my grandfather, father, and mother will die. It all comes true due to various accidents. My three brothers hate me to the core because they think I cursed my parents and grandfather. My mother actually dies after giving birth to my younger sister, but my brothers dote on her to no end. They say she's their lucky star because everything goes well for the family after she's born. But didn't Mom die while giving birth to her? On my 18th birthday, I see my death countdown when I look at myself in the mirror. I buy an urn I like and prepare a meal. I want to have one last meal with my brothers, but none of them show up even when the timer hits zero…
