Menikah dengan Kai bukanlah impian Kira. Pernikahan itu terjadi karena peristiwa kelam, tanpa cinta, tanpa kebahagiaan. Bahkan saat mengandung anak mereka, Kai tetap tak peduli. Hingga malam itu tiba, Kira kehilangan bayinya. Sendirian, tanpa suami di sisinya, tanpa tangan yang menggenggamnya. Beberapa minggu setelahnya Kai akhirnya mencari Kira. Dengan hati yang masih rapuh, Kira datang ke rumah sakit dan berpikir suaminya sedang dalam bahaya.

Kai memiliki anak dari wanita lain. “Jadilah ibu susu untuk anakku,” ucap Kai pada Kira tanpa perasaan. Haruskah Kira tetap bertahan dalam pernikahan itu, atau pergi membawa luka yang tak mungkin sembuh?

"Kylie, this year's annual bonus is evaluated based on two factors: performance and peer reviews. "Since your team never participates in company social events, your coworkers all gave you poor ratings. That's why this is your year-end bonus." Around me, the male employees were receiving bonuses in the tens of thousands. And yet, the women I led—developers who had worked for over ten years and built every core system the company relied on—each received nothing more than a coffee gift card and a mug engraved with the company logo. I laughed out loud. Then I turned and walked into my office and submitted resignation requests for the entire technical team. The manager, Preston Alec, sneered. "Good riddance. AI can replace women like you who only know how to have children." A few days later, the very people who had mocked me were standing in front of me, begging me to come back. I smiled in return. "AI conquers everything, doesn't it?"

Iris Hartley has spent her entire life as the spare daughter, invisible in the shadow of her beautiful half-sister Felicity. So when Felicity disappears two hours before her wedding to billionaire CEO Dominic Laurent, Iris does what she's always done: she steps in to clean up the mess. The plan is simple. Walk down the aisle, say the vows, save her family's company. Three years of marriage on paper, then freedom for everyone. But Dominic Laurent didn't build an empire by missing details. He knows his bride isn't who she claims to be. And when he discovers the truth, he gives Iris an ultimatum: prove she can be useful to him, or he'll expose the fraud and destroy both their families. What Dominic doesn't expect is that the replacement wife is brilliant, brave, and nothing like the woman he agreed to marry. And Iris never imagined that being chosen second could feel like being chosen first. Sometimes the wrong bride is exactly right.

In a world where werewolves adhere strictly to their social ranks, Conrad Rosser, the daughter of a Beta, knows her place. Werewolves are creatures of habit, after all, comfortable within the confines of their own kind. But when fate intervenes, everything Conrad thought she knew is turned upside down. Carlos, an incredibly attractive and formidable Alpha who is determined to challenge the status quo. Breaking tradition is not something he takes lightly, but there's something about Conrad that captivates him, defying all expectations. As fate takes control, Conrad finds herself unexpectedly paired with Carlos. Their partnership is a force to be reckoned with, pushing the boundaries of their world and stirring up hidden desires.

Will she embrace the unpredictable journey or fight against it? The answer lies in the electrifying connection she shares with Carlos, as they embark on an adventure that will redefine their lives and the destiny of their kind.

Eu entrei no livro e virei a bela figurante sem importância. E o meu irmão é o único homem normal da história, porque o papel dele é o de primeiro amor frio, abstinente e inalcançável que a protagonista jamais consegue conquistar. Quando a protagonista chora e se declara para ele, ele está estudando. Quando a protagonista quer se entregar de corpo e alma, ele está empreendendo. Enquanto a protagonista se perde entre vários homens, ele já se tornou um magnata, com renda anual nas centenas de bilhões. Eu achava que ele viveria uma vida inteira de pureza e autocontrole. Até que, certa noite, vi ele segurando uma peça da minha roupa nas mãos, murmurando o meu nome em voz baixa...

I'm a nationally certified animal trainer running the Lion King, Caesar's final assessment. I've barely stepped into the enclosure corridor when the steel guillotine door slams down behind me. My wife's laughter crackles over the loudspeaker. "Everyone, we're doing the ultimate challenge today! We're locking the so-called number-one animal trainer in the Lion King's enclosure and taking bets on whether he wets himself in ten minutes!" Caesar crouches low and rumbles a warning. I reach for my tranquilizer gun but stop cold. The liquid isn't the right color. In a phony sing-song voice, the veterinarian, Hugh Archer, says, "Lucian, I forgot to mention, I swapped your tranquilizer darts for pepper spray so you won't hurt Caesar by mistake. "You two are so close. Just win him over with love!" I look at Caesar, his eyes bloodshot from the stimulant, and it clicks. Hugh still resents that I stopped him from touching a tiger with his bare hands a few days ago. I tune out the trash blaring over the loudspeaker, pull a remote from my pocket, and hit the button. It's the master switch for the electric fence gates around every predator enclosure in the zoo. If I don't make it out, no one does.
