Kursi Jasmine

Arum pikir setiap luka pasti meninggalkan darah. Nyatanya, tidak. Luka yang Damar tinggalkan hanya berupa perasaan kalah dan putus asa, lalu menjelma menjadi kebencian yang begitu mendalam. Kali ini wanita itu tengah duduk di kursi kerjanya dengan setangkup harapan, berharap akan ada secercah harapan untuknya. Ia mulai memainkan jemarinya dilayar keyboard yang sudah lama tidak ia sentuh. "Rum, selamat ya kamu diterima? filenya sudah jadi belum?" tanya Lestari. Arum mendongak mencari arah suara. "Iya sebentar lagi ... makasih berkat kamu juga kan." "Bagaimana pernikahanmu?" Pertanyaan itu terlontar begitu saja dari mulut Lestari. Hening. "Talak tiga." Lestari melotot kaget. "Apa ... gila. Sudah hentikan isak tangismu itu, terdengar bos bisa dipecat nanti. Lagian dunia juga belum kiamat kan jika kamu tidak bersamanya."

Aku baru saja duduk dan bersulang dengan temanku, tiba-tiba meja di depan kami dihantam hingga terbalik. Segerombolan orang mengelilingi kami sambil membawa ponsel, menunjuk-nunjuk dan berkomentar sinis. "Dasar nggak tahu malu, suaminya bekerja keras di rumah, kamu malah bersenang-senang di luar?" "Dasar pelakor! Kami harus menghajarmu hari ini!" "Masih melotot? Mau menakut-nakuti siapa? Hancurkan saja semuanya! KIta harus membela keadilan!" Segerombolan orang itu seperti orang gila, menghancurkan semua yang bisa dihancurkan. Bahkan ada yang mengambil kursi dan memukul kepala temanku hingga berdarah. Aku melindungi temanku di belakang, mengambil ponsel untuk menghubungi polisi dan memberitahu pengacaraku. "Kalau Ben mau main kasar, langsung urus saja proses cerainya. Jangan biarkan dia dapat sepeser pun."

“I was never in love with you, Adonai. You were nothing but a means to an end. Therefore, I, Aria Blackwood, reject you, Adonai King as mate,” I said defiantly. Those seafoam eyes remained icy, his face betraying no form of pain. “Are you done?” The indifference in his voice startled me. “Get on the bed, little flower and spread those legs for me. I don't need a mate bond to completely own you.” Mated to a cursed Alpha, Aria believed that the only way to escape humiliation and torture she was constantly subjected to at the Moonbeam pack was to give her mate, Asher, a child and break the curse. But just as she broke the curse, Asher turned against her and had both Aria and her new born thrown into a furnace. The goddess grants her a second chance where she returns as Jasmine Green, a woman who committed on her wedding day. Inorder to execute her revenge, she must completely surrender herself to Adonai King, the ruthless Lycan King and make him fall head over heels for her. What happens when Jasmine's world is a lot more complicated than Aria? When she finds herself drowning in Adonai's darkness and seduction? With a secret lover, a bitter twin and scheming mistresses, will Aria be able to navigate through the web of conspiracies to win Adonai's heart and get her revenge or will she be caught in the crossfire and suffer a second death?

“I'm not a tool to satisfy your sexual cravings!" I yelled. But the moment I spilled those word as it stirred up something in him. “You are mine! Mine to keep, to rule. Your body, your soul, everything about you belongs to me!" He growled, pinning me against the wall. His hands traced every inch of my skin and I shiver at the thought of things he could do to me. ★★★ On the night of her 20th birthday, everything changed. In a bid to get out of her miserable life, Jasmine decides to run away from her abusive family into the arms of her mate/boyfriend, justin. The man she had trusted, the man she had given everything. He betrayed her in the most brutal way. Drugged, violated, and sold like property, she woke up in a dimly lit room, hands and feet bound. She wasn’t alone. Other women sat in silence, some sobbing, others too broken and hurt to react. It was only when she was dragged into a grand hall that the horrifying truth became clear. She was being auctioned and bought by a mysterious bidder. Alpha Jemah was everything the rumors said that he was, cold, calculating, and dangerously controlling. At the auction, the moment he set his eyes on Jasmine, he knew there was something special about her and immediately bought her. His rules were simple, a contract relationship in exchange for freedom. No feelings attached, No bridging of contract. With tension rising and chains breaking forbidden desires pull them closer but dark hidden secrets threaten to sever their bond.

"Answers and answers. We can solve our collective family issue," He said, eyes widened to whatever brilliant plan he had that was growing even more in his mind. "With you in my arms, the world would believe I have finally found the woman of my dreams," He continued, unaware of the growing distress that threatened to unravel me, "And my father would not dream to approach you. Out of fear that you might expose his scheme." I stepped forward, my palms on both sides of his cheeks- cupping them while he stroked my thumbs. "And what about who I am to seduce?" "He would be so interested in you because he believes I am interested in you." He would presume I was unavailable - and thus desirable. **** Son of the richest politician in the state, Alexander made a name for himself as one of the best and richest CEO of the biggest security company in the state.
