Karet Lower Arm

Ibuku adalah seseorang dengan pemikiran konservatif. Demi mempertahankan kesucianku, dia sengaja memesan set bodysuit ketat untuk membungkus tubuhku. Lantaran takut aku akan diam-diam membukanya di sekolah, dia bahkan mengikatnya dengan lima karet gelang dengan keadaan disimpul mati. Hanya saja, bahan pakaian ini terlalu kasar. Suatu bagian di tubuhku tergesek hingga terasa sangat gatal. Jadi, sejak kecil aku pun sudah bisa memuaskan diriku sendiri. Perlahan-lahan, cara ini sudah tidak ampuh lagi. Pada akhirnya, aku sampai ke tahap tidak bisa duduk dan berdiri dengan tenang. Aku menangis mengatakan kepada ibuku bahwa aku sakit, berharap dia tidak memaksaku untuk mengenakan pakaian ini lagi. Aku juga ingin dia membawaku berobat. Alhasil, ibuku hanya memarahiku. Dia mengatakan aku ingin mencoba untuk berhubungan. Demi meredakannya, aku mulai memasukkan banyak barang besar di dalam pakaian. Saat aku dewasa, ibuku meninggal akibat kecelakaan mobil. Akhirnya aku juga bisa terlepas dari pakaian sialan itu. Anehnya, setelah aku melepaskannya, aku bukannya merasa nyaman, malah merasa semakin tidak nyaman.

Zianne tahu, sedari awal dalam hidup Tama yang monokrom, hanya Patricia lah yang mampu menjelma sebagai pelangi. Zianne tahu, sedari awal seharusnya dia tidak harus memaksa. Karena, seperti karet yang ditarik, sejauh apa pun Tama pergi hanya Patricia lah tempatnya kembali. Semestinya, Zianne tahu bahwa dia hanya akan diam di luar sana, tidak beranjak ke mana-mana meski Tama begitu dekat dalam jangkuan tangannya. Meski Tama begitu nyata dalam pengelihatannya. Dan, Zianne memang sudah tahu jika tempat baginya hanya lah di sana. Di luar hati Tama. Meski begitu, dari tiga ratus enam puluh lima hari dalam setahun, benarkah tidak sehari pun Tama pernah jatuh hati kepadanya? Sekali saja?

"Kamu mencintainya Mas?" Suamiku mengangguk ragu. Hatiku sakit, ia pasti tahu itu. ia memegangiku erat seolah ingin aku kuat untuk mengerti. ia terus memegangi tanganku erat tidak ingin aku pergi. Bangsat kamu, Mas! Kamu kira terbuat dari apa hatiku? Dari karet? Bisa kau kunyah lalu kau bentuk jadi bola kemudian kamu kunyah lagi? Enak saja! “Bagaimana jika aku tidak menerima keputusanmu untuk membuka hati untuk wanita lain?” tanyaku pilu namun mungkin lelaki di depanku sudah terlanjur berambisi. “Aku ingin kamu tenang dulu, Sayangku. Dia tidak akan mengubah apapun tentang hidup kita terutama rasa cintaku padamu. Cuih, ingin muntah aku melihat bola matanya yang berkaca-kaca penuh harapan. “Ibuku juga sangat menyupport keputusanku ini, Jane. Ia malah tidak akan membiarkan kami mengadakan resepsi pernikahan jika kamu tidak ikut berpartisipasi dalam pesta itu. aku akan pastikan bahwa gaun dan perhiasan yang kau pakai akan jauh lebih mahal darinya. “Tunggu.. tunggu.. jadi kamu mengatakan semuan ini buka karena ingin meminta ijin padaku? Tapi hanya ingin memberiatahuku” Tanya geram. Gila! Sudahlah kepalaku serasa akan meledak mendengar pengakuannya tentang pelakor itu kini ternyata Ibu Suri, mertuaku tercinta ikut menjadi tim sukses dan parahnya seolah memaksa aku harus memeriahkan acara pernikahan sialan itu. Dasar psikopat! Fix, Mereka semua tidak waras.

A growl escaped his throat as my robe fell and pooled at my feet. I was completely naked. I saw his eyes dilating. He wanted me. That was all that mattered. A seductive smile curled on my lips, hiding the nervousness I felt. "I'm all yours, Alpha..." "Get dressed! And get out!" His breathing hitched as his gaze swept all over my naked form. I walked towards him, biting my lower lip as I reached for his shirt, unbuttoning it while ignoring his anger. He would have pushed me away if he didn't want this, but instead, he moved swiftly and pinned me against the wall. "Is this what you want?" His said hoarsely. His breath brushed against my neck, sending pleasurable tingles between my thighs as he pressed his front against mine. I stared back at him, letting my eyes show the emotions I had kept hidden all these years. "I want you, Caspian." ***** In a world where Alpha Females are pawns for the Claiming, being an Omega Female is considered a blessing. Andrea was born and raised as an Omega.

My name is Rose Bailey. I am seventeen years old and about to start my senior year of High school. I have always lived a normal, boring, human life. Never believed in the supernatural or the love at first sight sh#t that others girls my age fall for. That is until I move with my mom and two brothers back to the small town where my mom grew up. My mom makes us stay at this house or should I say castle with a lot of other people living their. Imagine my surprise when I walked in on a man and two women that looked to be 20 or 21 having in a room that looks like an office. Imagine how surprised I was when I was froze in place, unable to move as I felt a sharp pain in my chest from seeing them together as he one from behind while she leaned over a desk from pleasure and the other women was him. The man froze in place and looked at me with a guilty look on his face. The pain got worse in my chest and before I  blacked out I swore I heard him say Mate! 

Di sebuah desa di Jawa Tengah, tersembunyi sebuah curug (air terjun) kembar yang indah, menjadi surga wisata bagi warga sekitar. Airnya jernih, kolamnya dalam dan tenang, dikelilingi oleh perkebunan karet dan hutan kecil yang lebat. Setiap hari Minggu dan hari libur, tempat ini selalu ramai. Anak-anak berenang, keluarga piknik, remaja nongkrong sambil selfie. Namun di balik keindahan itu, Curug Kembar menyimpan misteri tua: sebuah pohon karet yang mengeluarkan darah jika disadap, dan pohon dadap besar yang diyakini menjadi tempat bersemayam pusaka gaib: besi kuning. Warga percaya, pusaka itu adalah penjaga keseimbangan antara dunia manusia dan dunia gaib di sekitar Curug Kembar. Tapi ketenangan itu hancur saat seseorang, demi pesugihan, nekat mengambil besi kuning dari akar pohon dadap. Setelah pusaka itu diambil, kejadian-kejadian mengerikan mulai terjadi: orang kerasukan, penampakan sosok wajah merah, suara gamelan saat hujan turun, bahkan ada yang menghilang setelah masuk hutan. Puncaknya, saat hujan deras turun selama berhari-hari, tanah di atas curug longsor, menimbun kolam di bawahnya dan menyapu habis tempat rekreasi tersebut. Kini, Curug Kembar ditinggalkan. Tak ada lagi yang berani datang. Warga percaya gerbang dunia lain telah terbuka. Dan sesuatu... telah lepas dari dalamnya.
