Kain Tahan Api

Itong payat at mukhang kulang sa kain na batang ’to ba ang bagong anak ng mama ko? Anong klaseng bata ’yon?! Ang sakit sa mata! Tuwing magkaharap kami, laging nakayuko at umiiwas ng tingin? Pero bakit habang tumatagal ay lalo naman siyang gumaganda? Mali ba kung palihim kong titikman ang batang ’to ni mama?

My heart was never meant to be divided… but my soul belongs to both of them." When I fled into the wilderness, I never expected to be hunted by rival wolves, by fate, by them. Kain is the ruthless Alpha who took me captive. His command is law, his touch a punishment… and his claim on me is absolute. But then there’s Darius, his brother, wild, untamed, and the only one who sees the fire in me instead of trying to extinguish it. The problem? I’m mated to both. Kain says the bond is a mistake. Darius swears it’s destiny. And the pack? They’re ready to tear me apart for daring to come between their Alphas. Now, every stolen glance, every forbidden touch, is a betrayal. Every choice could start a war. I don’t know which bond is real. I don’t know which brother is lying. But I do know this: One of them will kill for me. The other will die for me. And when the truth comes out… I might not survive the fallout

Denise Vera is a she-wolf who is different from others. Within her, resides a demon… a cold-blooded, uncontrollable inner-beast that is hungry for bloodshed. During fullmoons, it cannot be tamed. And once it is free, a ruthless slaughter begins. Because of this, Denise is hated by her pack and has to keep herself hidden away from the world. Now, she is nineteen and they refuse to keep her much longer. Her father sells her off to Aiden; the future Alpha of a powerful pack nearby. She is set to marry Aiden, but when Alpha Kain Valcor visits the pack for a deal, she feels a sudden connection to him. A mate bond. And it happens that her wolf forcefully takes control the very night they meet...but instead of killing all those around her, she oddly awakens in the arms of her mate. She ends up being bought all over again, this time by Kain. She hopes that he is the one to tame her wolf and save her, but Kain’s intentions are not what they seem. He doesn't want a mate, what he needs is a killer to defend his pack…

Di bagian timur Kota New York ada dua ahli waris. Satu adalah maniak kecepatan yang mendominasi arena balap, satu lagi adalah aktuaris genius yang mengendalikan arus modal. Keduanya berasal dari keluarga terpandang dan sifat mereka berbeda jauh. Namun, mereka tumbuh bersama sejak kecil dan menjadi satu-satunya sahabat sejati. Mereka pernah berebut perhatian seorang gadis, juga berselisih karena taruhan di arena balap. Namun, saat berusia 15 tahun, mereka sama-sama menggantungkan sebuah lencana tembaga di dada. Itu adalah hasil latihan ukiran tangan dari Mia di kelas kerajinan, dengan sebuah huruf "M" yang tergores di bagian belakang. Saat itu, Mia duduk di bangku paling belakang kelas. Tak seorang pun tahu siapa identitas dia sebenarnya. Namun, kedua laki-laki itu mengenakan lencana tersebut selama 10 tahun penuh. Entah itu saat berdiri di podium juara F1 atau saat mengetukkan palu pada investasi triliunan di bursa, lencana tembaga murahan itu selalu menempel di dada mereka dan tak pernah tergantikan. Sampai akhirnya muncul Ella. Putri kesayangan dari keluarga konglomerat baru. Ella menyulam sebuah emblem kain berhiaskan benang emas dan memberikannya kepada mereka. Kain itu cuma benda biasa yang mirip dengan pernak-pernik murahan yang dijual di pasar loak. Namun, mereka malah sama-sama melepas lencana tembaga itu dan menggantinya dengan kain murahan yang diberikan Ella. Mia tidak mengatakan apa pun. Dia hanya diam-diam menyimpan foto lama mereka yang tercetak di sebuah koran usang. Malam itu juga, dia menelepon ayahnya yang jauh di Sisilia. Nada bicaranya sangat tenang saat berkata, "Papa, aku menerima pernikahan politik ini."

Seharusnya kusadari sejak awal jika suamiku mendadak rajin ke sekolah, ternyata tujuan utamanya bukan mengantarkan putriku saja. Tapi bermain api di belakangku seolah, aku tak tahu. Silakan. Anggap saja begitu. Karena begitu aku bertindak, suamiku dan pelakor kesayangannya tak akan lagi bisa bermain api. Kupadamkan sampai tak bersisa. Tak lagi menyala. Bahkan sampai hidup mereka hancur tanpa sisa. Salah sendiri kenapa main api? Hangus terbakar, kan?

“He pressed me to the wall with one hand tight around my throat, the other sliding beneath the thin silk clinging to my skin. I should’ve been begging for help. Instead, my knees went weak when he leaned in, his mouth hot against my ear. ‘Does it hurt, darling?’ he whispered. I shook my head, even as his fingers left bruises. ‘Good. I like it when you take it.’ God, I hated him. God, I wanted him to never let go.” A DARK, EROTIC TALE OF OBSESSION, HUMILIATION, AND HUNGER. They called him the Devil, a sadist with a crooked smile and hands built for breaking men. In the underworld’s most perverse auction, Luca Ruelle is nothing but trembling prey, sold for a price no soul should fetch. Silk-wrapped, bare, choking on shame and smoke, he should be praying for rescue. But Kain Astor doesn’t rescue. He claims, corrupts, and devours. He teaches Luca how it feels to be owned. How pain can bloom where fear lives. How pleasure is just another kind of cruelty. Every command is a dare, every punishment a promise. Under Kain’s hands, Luca learns the exquisite agony of surrender, and the terror of how badly he needs it. He should be fighting for his life. Instead, he’s sinking to his knees, eyes glazed, lips parted, whispering the one word that seals his fate— “Please.”
