Lawan Kata Eternal

By the fifth year of my marriage to Noah Lester, everyone insisted that I, Emma Newman, was his eternal muse. But I knew the truth. Behind my back, Noah cycled through a parade of fresh-faced, eager lovers. He even flaunted them at social gatherings, swapping one for another with shameless ease. When friends teased him—"Didn’t you swear Emma was the love of your life? Why the revolving door of mistresses?"—he’d just laugh, arms slung around his latest conquests. "Once you’ve caught your muse the glow fades. Give me someone new and tender any day—at least they keep things exciting." So I began plotting my escape. What Noah never realized was that I had grown tired of him, too. Tired of this life, of these performances. I was done.

I'd always seen myself a certain way, as a good and loving daughter, a girl who enjoyed reading and laying on the grass staring up at the sky. A simple and good person. But this world is cruel to simple, good people. In the year 1674 I was sentence to death. The people I grew up with, laughed and cried with the people I shared precious memories with, abandoned me, scorned me, called me horrible things and laughed as I died. But the thing about death is... It's not always permeant! But theirs would be. Their death's would be a long bloody nightmare! ----- Scarlet Grey was betrayed and abandoned by those she thought would always stand by her. So when the opportunity for vengeance is presented to her by a devilishly handsome stranger, she takes it and with it she became the eternal companion of an insane ancient vampire... Evan Evers. And sometimes... Insanity's contagious!

Apa yang kau rasakan ketika kesalahpahaman memisahkanmu dari orang yang kau cintai?  Itu pula yang Akbar rasakan. Ia harus menelan sesal ketika tahu jika istrinya yang berselingkuh hanyalah korban fitnah.  Cinta yang begitu besar membuat hatinya patah. Lebih lagi ketika ia kembali dipertemukan dengan Rumi—mantan istrinya, namun Rumi selalu menghindar karena luka hati sebab kata talak.  Mampukah Akbar meyakinkan Rumi untuk rujuk? Ataukah Rumi lebih memilih untuk tetap tinggal pada  hati lain yang tulus mencintainya? 

The war between vampires and werewolves has raged for centuries. But Dorian, the most revered vampire prince, shattered every rule and bound himself to me—a werewolf. The Elders punished him for it. For this, he was chained in sacred silver for days on end. Forced to drink the blood of beasts. He nearly died in a baptism of holy water. The pain was absolute. But when he saw me again, his eyes were bloodshot as he kissed my tears away. "The moment we bonded, I made a vow," he whispered. "You are my eternal mate. I will never forsake you." Finally, his family—the Valkyries—agreed. But they had one condition. He could leave the vampire world with me. But first, he had to sleep with Liliana, the pureblood noblewoman. He had to give his family a new, powerful heir. Dorian held me, his voice tight with desperation. "Please, Freya. Just wait a little longer. A few more years, and we can go to the human world. We can have our eternity." I waited. Night after night, he went to her bed. A hundred nights of betrayal passed before she finally conceived. But their daughter, Aria, was born without the proper bloodline mark. She couldn't be the heir. They had to have another. I endured another two hundred nights of their betrayal. Liliana was pregnant again. But on Aria's first birthday, sunlight somehow flooded her room. She was dying. Everyone thought I did it. I was locked in a cellar lined with silver. Dorian's face was a mask of pain and exhaustion as he confronted me. "I told you we could leave after the next child was born. You're the only one here immune to the sun. Why would you hurt my daughter?!" Tears streamed down my swollen face as I tried to deny it, but the silver poison burning in my bones had already stolen my voice. By the time the cellar door opened again, the wolf inside me was fading. I forced myself to my feet and walked toward the Valkyrie Elders. This eternal bond he promised? I was done.

Sosok Pinot yang berjuang melawan kerasnya hidup, percaya bahwa badai akan berlalu, bahkan akan ada pelangi setelah hujan merupakan kalimat penguat yang ia yakini selama ini. Berusaha sebaik mungkin, menunda kata lelah menjadi lillah, berusaha menjadi sosok yang selalu bisa bertahan untuk diri sendiri dan keluarga nya, menahan semua luka menjadi tawa, menahan derita menjadi sedikit harapan. Hidup memang suka bercanda selucu itu lah kuasa sang pencipta, tawa untuk hamba Nya kadang harus ada air mata sebagai pengiringnya.
