"Lo tau gak, sih, tata krama masuk ruangan?” tanya Regar ketus. Nessa sangat tidak sopan. Masuk ruangan tanpa permisi. Regar menyesal tidak mengunci pintu. Alih – alih menjawab, Nessa malah menyalakan posnelnya dan membuka aplikasi kamera. Ia mengatur kameranya menjadi kamera depan lalu mengajak Regar berfoto bersama. "Apaan, sih!” seru Regar tidak suka dengan tindakan Nessa. "Satu, dua, tigaaa,” Nessa langsung menjepret kamera ponselnya lalu melihat hasilnya. Tampak ekspresi Regar yang sedang marah. Sangat kontras dengan Nessa yang tersenyum manis. "Hahaha lucu, deh. Upload, ah,” Nessa membuka akun Instagramnya kemudian memposting fotonya dan Regar di instastory. Tak lupa ia me-mention akun Instagram Regar. Regar adalah cowok terkenal di sekolah dan luar sekolah sehingga memiliki banyak pengikut. Nessa berharap jika Regar me-repost instastory-nya maka akan banyak pengikut Regar yang mengikuti akunnya juga, “jangan lupa repost, ya,” Regar yang melihat hal itu menjadi semakin kesal, “Nessa hapus!” pinta Regar to the point. "Gapapa lah, Gar, sekali – kali. Kita, kan, belom pernah foto berdua,” jawab Nessa santai sambil memandangi fotonya bersama Regar. Regar membuang napas kasar. Ia menatap kedua temannya yang hanya diam. "Kalo Regar gak mau, sini sama Miko aja, beb,” sahut Miko. "Gak mau. Maunya sama Regar,” Regar memalingkan wajahnya malas, “murahan,” jawab Regar spontan dengan nada meremehkan. Cowok itu sedang menahan amarahnya saat ini. Ia berusaha untuk tidak membentak Nessa walaupun ia tahu kata – katanya barusan sangat tajam.

Mi nombre es Addison Calder. Durante mi primer celo como mujer lobo adulta, Morgan Flint, de la nada, me dijo que quería terminar. No pude dejar de llorar; y no fue por tener el corazón roto, sino porque el tormento de mi ciclo de apareamiento me estaba consumiendo. Me aferré a su manga y me acerqué a él, intentando calmar la tensión con un beso. Impaciente, Morgan me empujó hacia su hermano mayor, Tucker Flint. —A Addie se le pasaron las copas y está fuera de sí. ¿Me ayudas a calmarla? Mientras Tucker se acercaba, Morgan se inclinó y le dijo en voz baja: —Cuídamela bien. No dejes que se le acerque nadie. Solo voy a terminar con ella por un rato. En cuanto me aburra de divertirme por ahí, regreso con ella. Tucker asintió y me subió con cuidado al auto. —¿Te duele? Abrumada por el dolor, me aferré a su corbata mientras las lágrimas me corrían por la cara. —Por favor… ayúdame. Las pupilas de Tucker se contrajeron y su voz sonó profunda. —¿Y exactamente cómo quieres que te ayude? En un instante, me incliné y pegué mis labios a los suyos. —Bésame… o deja que te bese. Nuestro beso apasionado disipó gran parte de la tensión que me carcomía. Al ver que las orejas de Tucker estaban rojas, volví a tomarlo de la corbata. —¿Me llevas a casa?

Two souls, forged in suffering, would collide in a dance of darkness and desire, testing the limits of love and redemption. Their paths meet when Asher's sister becomes the target of a predator, and Kaidën sees an opportunity for justice. As they navigate their dark worlds, they must confront the demons that haunt them. Will Asher's desire for protection and Kaidën's quest for vengeance spark a twisted romance, or will their shattered reflections destroy them? *** “You killed my mother.” Asher's voice trembled with fury. Kaidën's smile was cold, almost mirthful. “Who gave your sister to her husband who sold her to pay off his debts.” “I watched you murder her in cold blood!” Asher’s fists clenched around the gun he held pointed at the killer, memories of that night flooding back. Kaidën leaned closer, a sinister smile creeping onto his face. "I remember begging you to look away. But you didn’t. Did you enjoy it, Asher? Watching the woman who shattered your world writhe in agony? Or would you prefer to keep that little secret buried deep? Ah, but don’t answer that. Come, help me gather the pieces of your father's remains. It’s time to tidy up this little mess." Asher’s eyes widened in horror, realization crashing over him like a wave. All this time, he had been unaware that he was not only a witness to his father’s murder, but had watched it unfold until the very end, just like he had done that night when he watched his mother’s murder. Nodding, he picked up the severed hand of his father—the same hand that had beaten and broken him until his skin grew numb to pain. ‘Oh, sweet Emily, if only you could see our father now. How the mighty have fallen.’

Ah! Mrs Gates, you're glowing. Your husband is taking good care of you. You keep getting more beautiful by the day.” “Of course, Mr Clinton loves his wife the most. Can't you see how in love they are? Do you think he would let her do something as stressful as working?” “That's true. I wish I were in her shoes. A perfect billionaire housewife with a doting husband who worships her. The last time he bought Star of the Sea at the auction, I immediately knew that his love for her was unlimited,” another high-class woman chimed as I passed by them. I halted in my tracks. Star of the Sea? How come I can't remember him giving it to me? Before I could process everything, another figure stepped in. A figure that I dread mentioning her name. Yeah, it was her. Louisa Carter, my husband’s childhood sweetheart. The woman whose existence threatens to tear my marriage apart. “How does it feel to be divorcing the man you love? Why didn't you tell those silly women the truth— that you're nothing to Clinton? You're just trash, not worth mentioning.” She hissed. I looked up at her the moment I heard divorce. Clinton has not told our family yet and even ordered me to keep it a secret. How did she know? “Mrs Gates? What a joke!” she continued. You're just sitting on an empty shell. His heart, his body, his wealth, his company, they all belong to me. You have nothing except the name. ******* Everyone in the city assumed Joanna was the precious wife of Clinton Gates because of how boastful he was of her. What they didn’t know was that all he did was just a public stunt until Joanna boldly threw divorce papers in his face.

"Kau bukan kriteriaku, Crys." Brandon berkata tegas. Tatapan nyalang oleh amarah. "Aku menyukai perempuan yang be--" "Perempuan muda, berusia sekitar 20-22 tahun." Crystal memotong dengan cepat. "Sedangkan aku berumur sudah seperempat abad. Aku cukup tua dan tidak akan masuk menjadi kriteria utama wanita pilihanmu." Crystal menyeringai meremehkan. "Ah, kau juga mencari wanita muda yang agresif dan berpengalaman, 'kan?" "Sedangkan aku masih belum pernah tidur dengan pria mana pun selama ini. Jadi, kau merasa aku akan sulit mengimbangimu." "Aku bodoh karena aku ingin dirimu yang pertama memilikiku seutuhnya, tapi kau sama sekali tidak tertarik denganku, Uncle." Crystal berdecak sinis. Namun, kontras akan matanya yang sudah berkaca-kaca. Ia sendiri benci harus menunjukkan kemarahannya dengan cara seperti ini. Akan terlihat lemah. "Aku hanya bisa minta maaf. Aku tidak dapat memberikanmu kesempatanmu untuk lebih menyukaiku, Crys. Itu adalah kesalahan." Brandon mulai melunak, suaranya melembut. "Kau akan tetap menjadi keponakanku, ti--" "Dan, aku akan membuatmu pada akhirnya menyukaiku. Memintaku untuk menjadi milikmu seorang." Crystal berujar mantap. "Aku pasti bersedia mengubah statusmu dari paman menjadi suamiku," imbuhnya dengan suara penuh keyakinan dan ambisius. ………………… Crystal Smith dan Brandon Smith, memang memiliki nama belakang keluarga yang sama, tetapi mereka tidak ada hubungan darah sedikit pun. Hanya secara hukum saja Brandon berstatus sebagai pamannya. Jadi, Crystal membiarkan rasa cinta tumbuh untuk pria yang sepuluh tahun lebih tua darinya. Walau, tidak berbalas sama sekali. Namun, Crystal pantang menyerah dengan apa yang diinginkannya. Dikerahkan berbagai cara agar dapat mengklaim Brandon sebagai miliknya. ………….

La nonagésima novena vez que mi prometido, Draven Frost, me colgó la llamada, fui como pude hasta la iglesia de la familia, aferrando en la mano el diagnóstico de enfermedad renal terminal. —Padre, quiero romper todos mis lazos con la familia Rocci y anular mi compromiso con Draven Frost. Apenas terminé de hablar cuando mis padres irrumpieron en la iglesia con mi hermana adoptiva, Bianca. Mi padre, el Consigliere de la familia, no dudó. Me dio una cachetada, ahí mismo, frente al sacerdote. —¡Tu prometido es un Capo muy respetado en la mafia y te atreves a insultarlo de esta manera! ¡Estás manchando el nombre de la familia frente a toda la organización! Mi madre me arrebató el diagnóstico de la mano y dijo con desprecio tras una rápida mirada: —¿Otra vez con tus mentiras para llamar la atención? ¿Ahora qué quieres? Mi hermana adoptiva, Bianca, se aferró a los brazos de nuestros padres, con la voz quebrada por el llanto. —Ay, hermana, lo siento mucho. Si quieres, te cedo mi lugar en la gala. ¡Pero por favor, ya no les causes más problemas a papá y a mamá! Me limpié la sangre que escurría de mi nariz y, con calma, le repetí mis palabras al sacerdote. —Ya no soy hija de la familia Rocci. No soy digna de una alianza con los Frost. Me quedan tres días de vida. Y quiero que este compromiso se anule antes de eso.

En nuestro séptimo aniversario de bodas, estaba montada sobre las piernas de mi esposo, Lucian, el Don de la mafia, besándolo con pasión. Mis dedos hurgaban con disimulo en el bolsillo de mi costoso vestido de seda, buscando la prueba de embarazo que había escondido ahí. Quería guardarme la noticia inesperada para el final de la noche. La mano derecha de Lucian, Marco, preguntó con una sonrisa sugerente en italiano: —Don… ¿qué tal su nuevo secretito? La risa burlona de Lucian vibró en mi pecho y sentí cómo se me revolvía el estómago. Respondió, también en italiano: —Como un durazno verde. Fresco y tierno. Su mano todavía acariciaba mi cintura, pero tenía la mirada perdida. —Que esto quede entre nosotros. Si mi Donna se entera, me mata. Sus hombres rieron con complicidad, alzando sus copas y jurando guardar el secreto. El calor que sentía en el cuerpo se me fue extinguiendo. Lo que ellos no sabían es que mi abuela era de Sicilia, así que entendí cada una de sus palabras. Me obligué a mantener la calma, con la sonrisa perfecta de una matriarca, pero la mano con la que sostenía la copa de champaña me temblaba. En lugar de hacer una escena, tomé el celular, busqué la invitación que había recibido hacía unos días para un proyecto privado de investigación médica internacional y acepté. En tres días, iba a desaparecer del mundo de Lucian.

Prologue Hawak ang maliit na bag, nakatayo si Althea Santos, 20, sa harap ng marangyang tahanan ng pamilya Velasco. Para bang ibang mundo ang kaharap niya—malayo sa simpleng buhay sa probinsya. Kailangan niya ang trabahong ito, at ang pagiging kasambahay ng isang kilalang doktor ang tanging daan upang makatulong sa pamilya. Pagpasok niya sa sala, sinalubong siya ng bango ng mamahaling pabango at kinang ng chandelier. Ang bawat sulok ay parang larawan mula sa magasin, at halos hindi siya makapaniwala na dito siya maninirahan. “Ah, ikaw pala si Althea,” isang malalim na tinig ang umalingawngaw. Lumingon siya at napatigil. Isang matangkad, gwapo, at matipunong lalaki ang naroon—may malamig na tingin ngunit hindi maitatangging kaakit-akit. Si Dr. Adrian Velasco, 25, amo niya at isang respetadong doktor. “Y-yes, Sir,” sagot niya, pilit pinapakalma ang nanginginig na tinig. Ramdam niya ang mabilis na tibok ng puso, hindi lamang dahil sa kaba kundi sa paraan ng pagtitig ni Adrian—parang binabasa ang kanyang buong pagkatao. Lumapit ito, mabagal at tiyak ang bawat hakbang. “Welcome sa Velasco residence. Sana makapag-adjust ka nang mabuti.” Kasabay ng banayad na babala ang isang maliit na ngiti na nag-iwan ng init sa dibdib ni Althea. Sa sandaling iyon, naramdaman niya ang tensyon—isang halong respeto, kaba, at hindi maikakailang kilig. Alam niyang hindi magiging ordinaryo ang mga susunod na araw. Sa ilalim ng bubong na ito, magsisimula ang kwento ng damdamin na susubok sa kanya—mga lihim, selos, kilig, at sakit na magbabago sa kanyang puso magpakailanman. ---

"Take me back to my family, you monster." I seethed in anger at the person in front of me now. I am not bothered at the sight of him naked before my eyes. Anger and fear had over-powered me since the moment he kidnapped me and brought me in this damn place. He chuckled and as he move closer to me cupping my face with his warm hand. "I am your family... my mate." "Stop calling me that. I am not your mate and I will never be." "Oh I can't do that. You belong here and not with those weak humans." amusement not leaving his eyes. "Humans? Of course I belong there. If there's a place I don't belong to, it's in this godamn place. Just let me go." "Oh really now? How come you don't belong here when you are... " he paused a moment. "What's that term you used again?... ah, a monster....yourself?" I was taken aback at what he said. "Me? A monster? You are making a mistake. I am not like you." Just as I about to speak again, the man changed his form. With the cracking of bones and the appearance of thick black hair in his entire body, he is once again the monster I saw earlier. I am beyond scared now but I can't do anything because both my arms are chained to the wall. His eyes were a mix of amber and black that watched me intently. Then very slowly he came forward. He looked me in the eye and with that came a voice from my head. "Really? Then explain to me why you can hear me talking now? It's one thing we werewolf can do. It's called mind-link." With that he changed into human form again with a smirk in his face. "See you later." Then he walked outside the room leaving me here petrified.

"You still want me, don’t you?" bulong ni Levi habang nakasiksik siya sa likuran ni Vionne, ang mainit nilang katawan ay nakababad sa ilalim ng rumaragasang tubig mula sa shower. Ramdam ng babae ang bawat pulgada ng kanyang kahubdan. "Levi… w-we shouldn't—" Pero natigil ang pagtutol niya nang marahas siyang iharap ng binata, isinandal sa malamig na pader ng tiles, at sinalubong ng halik na parang sumisipsip ng kaluluwa. His tongue tasted of hunger, revenge, and something forbidden—yet painfully familiar. "Don't lie to me, Vionne." Mainit ang hininga ni Levi sa kanyang balat. "Your body’s already begging for me. You miss this—me—inside you." Napasinghap si Vionne nang gumapang ang kamay nito pababa, pinunit ang natitirang saplot niya at walang babala siyang inangkin sa gitna ng agos ng tubig. "Ah—Levi!" Napaungol siya, napaarko ang likod sa tindi ng sarap. Napakapit siya sa kanyang balikat. Tuloy-tuloy ang pag-indayog ng binata—parang gusto nitong ipaalala sa kanya kung sino ang tunay na nagmamay-ari sa kaniya. "You’re mine, Vionne," bulong nito sa pagitan ng bawat mariing pag-ulos. "No matter how many times you try to run, your body—your soul—will always crave me." "S-Stop talking… I c-can’t—" Pero hindi na niya nakayanan. Sa halip, bumulwak sa kanyang lalamunan ang mas malakas na ungol habang ang init at sarap ay naghalo sa bawat galaw ni Levi. "You feel that?" Mariing tanong ni Levi habang hinuhugot at muling ibinabaon ang sarili. "That’s how deep I still am inside you. That’s how much I fucking want you." Nanginginig ang tuhod ni Vionne. Nanginginig sa sarap.
