Malam ketika Adriel diangkat menjadi bos Keluarga Mahendra, aku memberinya keperawananku. Dia adalah pewaris yang sudah dijodohkan denganku bahkan sebelum aku bisa bicara. Kami berciuman di depan jendela besar yang menjulang dari lantai sampai langit-langit, tubuh kami saling terjerat dalam panas lembap senja itu. Sentuhannya yang kasar dan tergesa-gesa membuatku sakit, tapi aku tidak menjauh. Bahkan rasa sakit itu terasa suci, seperti pengorbanan yang rela aku lakukan demi cinta. Tenggelam dalam panasnya momen itu, dia berjanji akan memberiku sepasang sepatu kristal paling indah, supaya aku bisa berdansa waltz pembuka bersamanya di upacara penobatannya keesokan hari. Tarian pertama selalu dipersembahkan untuk bos baru dan calon pengantinnya. Aku menangis bahagia, yakin bahwa tahun-tahun penantian diam-diamku akhirnya akan berakhir seperti dongeng. Tapi aku salah. Teramat salah. Keesokan paginya, aku memaksa tubuhku yang masih nyeri untuk keluar membeli ekspresso kesukaannya. Saat aku kembali, aku mendengar para lelaki bercanda. "Jadi kamu akhirnya tidur dengannya? Bagaimana rasanya bersama Vivian di malam pertamamu sebagai bos?" Suara Adriel terdengar malas penuh ejekan. "Wajahnya seperti malaikat, tubuhnya seperti iblis. Di ranjang, dia benar-benar seperti ular kecil yang menggoda." Ruangan itu langsung riuh oleh siulan-siulan genit. "Jadi, kamu benar-benar akan menikahinya, Bos Muda?" "Serius kamu pikir begitu?" Adriel mencibir. "Vivian cuma pemanasan. Setelah aku cukup berlatih, aku akan menaklukkan si putri es Keluarga Santoso. Kalau nanti aku bosan, aku selalu bisa kembali padanya dan menikahinya." Aku berdiri terpaku di ambang pintu, pandanganku mulai kabur, cangkir kopi di tanganku bergetar. Sebelum dunia gelap di mataku, aku sempat mengirim pesan sandi untuk Bos Indra Wijaya. [Om Indra, untuk promosi yang akan berlangsung tiga hari lagi, tolong pindahkan aku. Sejauh mungkin dari Adriel.]

'Gwen pushed him back, trying to create enough space between them. "I do not love you." Alexander smirked. "You do. You just don't know that you do." Gwen moved back. "Do you know the ways of my heart." "Yes, I do. And it tells the truth. You are only too stubborn to acknowledge it." He moved closer, pressing her against the wall. "When you decide to tell yourself the truth, I will be waiting." He kissed her forehead. "But don't make me wait long. I am not as patient as people think." This time he kissed her lips and staked off, leaving Gwen in a complete daze.' Marriage and a family is all life is to Gwen and she would see to it that she is not humiliated before then.

(Hating Her King is the sequel to Loving Her Duke and is also the second book of the British Blood Trilogy.)

"You think I am a fool?" he whispered in my ear, coming closer. He was pissing me off. "Why the hell do you want to marry me?" I gritted my teeth.

  "There is no escape for you. I have waited a long time for you,mate. I will not let you go this time." I gasped and placed my palm over my heart, doubling over. I felt it. Strong and unbreakable, a cord that connected our bodies, minds and souls to each other's. It reached out, connecting me to him, over time, over space, over realms. I felt his power fuse with mine and cuddle around my ice, making me warm. Fire to my ice. Ice to his fire. I didn't need to see him to know it was him. My dragon growled again with mixed emotions coursing through her. I joined in with a snarl and lifted my head, anger of a woman and beast merging into something cataclysmic.      I thrummed my fingers in the air and I raised my head. Our eyes met and I resisted the urge to double over at the sensation in my chest. With Fae vision, he looked even more gorgeous than any being should be. So sensual. So dark. So powerful. My mate. I searched his turquoise depths for answers, hoping I was wrong, but they said it all. He was my mate. And he'd hurt me. I'll kill him.

Soulbound: Chosen by Darkness In a city that devours the vulnerable, Tharien has learned one rule: distance is the only way to protect what he loves. Dangerous by nature and hunted by forces that fear the power of connection, he walks away from the one person who anchors him—Nori—believing his absence will keep her safe. But their bond is not something that can be outrun. A rare and forbidden soulbond ties them together, threading their hearts, their pain, and their survival into one. When Tharien disappears, the bond fractures, leaving Nori hollowed by longing and hunted by shadows that feed on separation. The farther he goes, the darker the world becomes—because something ancient has awakened in the space between them. As secret watchers circle and those who sever bonds hunt in the name of “mercy,” Tharien is forced to confront the lie he’s lived by. His distance is not protection. It is a wound. And the darkness that stalks their world grows stronger with every step he takes away from her. To save Nori, Tharien must return to the one place he swore he’d never stand again—at her side. Because in a world that calls separation mercy, choosing each other is rebellion. And loving her may be the only thing that keeps the darkness from devouring them both.
