Makna Lagu Spring Snow

I saved my husband, Raffaello, the Don of the mafia, from the hands of a rival family. In return, he forced me to kneel before his childhood sweetheart, Sofia, and bark like a dog just to cheer her up. Our son, Lorenzo, wandered into the family's chemical plant out of childish curiosity, so I dragged him out with my own hands. Only for him to look me in the eye and said that I wasn't worthy of being his mother. What my husband didn't know was that when the assassins came for him, I had deliberately drew them away, letting them capture me instead. They had injected a virus into body, which burned my throat and destroyed my voice forever. What my son didn't know either was that inside the chemical plant where I rescued him, I had inhaled an overwhelming amount of toxic powder, which later caused me to have severe asthma. That night, when my asthma flared up and my lungs began to fail, I used what little strength I had left to call my husband. He impatiently rebuked me, "Grace, stop bothering me for once. A person who is really dying wouldn't make such a scene. Don't think that I don't know that you're just jealous, trying to compete with Sofia for my attention." I collapsed into the snow, greedily gasping for the final breath of air. Then, everything went still. Later, Raffaello, who never loved me lost his mind. He injected the same virus over and over again into his body, just to feel the pain I once endured. Lorenzo, who refused to acknowledge me, attempted suicide repeatedly, begging fate to trade his life for mine. But, sadly, by then, I no longer loved them.

Tian Yun, ialah Kaisar langit yang paling kuat, punya segalanya—kekuatan, kehormatan, dan bahkan cinta dari Permaisuri Lian Xue. Atau, ya, setidaknya dia pikir begitu. Tapi ternyata, Lian Xue malah menikamnya dari belakang, diam-diam bersekongkol dengan Kaisar Iblis. Dalam sebuah pertempuran yang penuh tipu muslihat, Tian Yun tewas di tangan orang yang paling ia percaya. Alam semesta pun gempar, berduka atas kejatuhan sang penguasa. Tapi, bukannya benar-benar lenyap, Tian Yun malah bereinkarnasi di dunia fana, terjebak dalam tubuh seorang pemuda bernama Lin Feng yang baru saja mati karena dihianati saudaranya sendiri. Kebayang nggak, dari seorang Kaisar yang dulu serba bisa, sekarang harus hidup sebagai remaja biasa yang nggak punya apa-apa? Tapi Tian Yun, atau sekarang Lin Feng, nggak patah semangat. Dalam hatinya, ada tekad membara untuk membalas dendam, dan dia punya satu senjata yang nggak bisa diambil siapa pun darinya: pengetahuan soal kultivasi. Pelan-pelan, Lin Feng mulai merangkak naik lagi. Setiap kali dia latihan atau bertarung, ada kilasan-kilasan masa lalunya sebagai Kaisar yang terlintas—wajah Lian Xue, pertempuran terakhirnya, sampai rasa sakit yang dia pendam. Kadang dia berhenti sebentar, termenung, bertanya dalam hati, "Apa iya balas dendam ini bakal bikin semuanya lebih baik?" Tapi dia nggak mau terlalu lama larut dalam pikiran. Yang penting, dia harus bangkit lagi, lebih kuat dari sebelumnya, dan kali ini… nggak ada yang bisa menghalanginya. Perjalanan Lin Feng penuh tantangan, rahasia kelam mulai terungkap, dan ada musuh-musuh lama yang harus dihancurkan, termasuk Lian Xue dan Kaisar Iblis. Tapi di balik itu semua, dia juga mulai menemukan sesuatu yang baru—mungkin, makna hidup yang sebenarnya. Entahlah, tapi yang jelas, Lin Feng nggak akan berhenti sampai semua dendamnya terbalaskan.

While inspecting my company’s cold-chain operations, my wife, Mandy Snow, and the college boy I’d been sponsoring suddenly vanished. As I passed the cabinet storing the research supplies, a stream of floating comments suddenly flashed before my eyes. “That was way too close! Jeff Miller almost caught them. Good thing Mandy reacted fast and dragged her boy toy into the storage cabinet.” “But that cabinet is about to be locked up and shipped to the Antarctic research station. Are those two trying to turn themselves into ice sculptures?” I froze. My wife was cheating on me right under my nose? I was just about to pull open the cabinet door when my wife’s assistant hurried over and forced a smile, blocking my way. “Mr. Miller, the seal on this cabinet was just waxed and hasn’t dried yet. Careful, or you’ll get your hands dirty.” The floating comments appeared again. “That was so close! The assistant’s pretty sharp. Once the female lead gets out, she totally owes him a car.” “No wonder she’s the lucky heroine. She always gets out of trouble. I seriously can’t wait to watch her sweet romance with her boy toy.” Looking at the comments in front of me, I let out a cold laugh. “These are critical supplies for the research team. To make sure nothing goes wrong, seal the cabinet right now.” “Go get a welder. Weld the door shut.” The assistant froze, and so did the floating comments. “What the hell? This evil supporting male character is brutal. The two people inside aren’t wearing a thing.” “Help! If the door gets welded shut, the male and female leads are going to drift at sea for a month and freeze into specimens!”

When she turned eighteen, Sab was delighted to learn who her mate was, until it turned into a nightmare. He greeted her, gave her a gift, and that was it. It was as if he doesn’t recognize her as his mate. Clyde is the next alpha of their pack. He’s a few months older, so he must know already…. but no. It became clear he’s not feeling the mate bond. Her experience is unique and it made her afraid to tell anyone. She was forced to tell Clyde when she heard he’s planning to choose a mate from another pack. As she expected, he didn’t believe her and it hurt her greatly when he asked her to reject him. He thought she was a liar. When she agreed to his request, she tried to bury her feelings and move on. Ice, her best friend and his twin, helped her with training and she thrived in it. Years later, Clyde began to notice her presence due to her ability and improvements. He fell for her and though he initially tried not to give in to his feelings, he realized he wants her. But his rejection was deeply engraved in her heart. Sab couldn’t accept him and tried to turn him away. Clyde knew it wouldn’t be easy to convince her but he would do whatever it takes to make her his mate. ******* Each book in the Snow Mountain Pack Series can be read as a stand-alone.

My fated mate, Alpha Horton, didn't love me. He loved another omega, Chloe. In my past life, Chloe took her own life in despair over him, and Horton was convinced I had driven her to it out of jealousy. He hated me to the bone. Even bound by our mate bond, he refused to touch me. But when a rival pack’s silver bullet flew toward me, he shielded me with his own body. As his life drained away, he wrenched his cold hand from mine, his golden eyes filled with nothing but regret and disgust. "Sienna," he said, "my one regret is not rejecting you from the very beginning." After he died, the pack fell apart. Every member cursed me, screaming about why it wasn't me who died, but their great Alpha. It felt like my heart had turned to ash. I swallowed a vial of liquid silver before his grave. When I opened my eyes, I was back ten years in the past, shortly after we were mated. The cold voice of the Moon Goddess echoed in my mind. "Child, I will give you one more chance. Fulfill the three deepest wishes in Horton's heart, and in exchange for your life, your soul will earn its true freedom." I knew his wishes. To break our mate bond. To be with Chloe. To ensure the survival of the Snow Moon pack. This time, it wasn't too late. The freedom he craved, the woman he loved, the pack he swore to protect. I would give it all to him, using the very life he loathed to do it. But when I granted his every wish, in return, he wept with regret, calling me his only fated mate.

"We are enemies." "That doesn't stop me from possessing you." He breathed and every word he whispered later on sent chills down my spine, "You are mine, Amara. From the pale blonde strands of your hair to your faded nail-polished toes. Every breath you take is mine. Not excluding the freckles dusting your cheeks to the pimples on your face. Your misery is mine, which I shall bring upon you myself. From your giggles to your random nonsensical chatter, I own them! Your darn strawberry moments are mine. Every drop of blood that flows through your veins belongs to me and so does your last breath when I snuff life out of you, watching as your pretty green eyes lose their shine and your heartbeat goes dull beneath my palm." His hand traveled to my neck, fingers lacing around it, and he squeezed a bit, "Who do you belong to?" He asked capturing my ear lobe between his lips and I shivered. "Myself and you can't have me!" I swung my head back and crashed it against his, sending him reeling backward. **************** You have got to let your loved ones know what's happening with you' Amara snow Dardanos learns this the hard way when her perfect world is crushed by a secret she kept away from her family.

Every bonding anniversary, Shawn would bring home a new human girl from the outside—always under the lovely pretense of letting me mentor her on how to serve an Alpha. On our seventh anniversary, he brought back a nightclub girl dressed in a Princess Snow White outfit—cheap satin trembling under the chandelier's light. “She doesn’t have anything appropriate for an occasion like this,” he said casually. “Let her borrow your bonding dress. And the jewelry I gave you last time. As for shoes—what you're wearing now will do.” Then he added, with a trace of irony, “She’s just a young human girl, clueless. Teach her a few things about our world, will you? Especially the part about the bed.” Everyone was waiting for the spectacle—for me to break again, as I always had. And I didn’t disappoint them. I looked at Shawn, my voice steady, and said I wanted a bond-severance. He laughed—short and sharp—and leaned back like he was watching a comedy. “Clara, when are you going to stop with this bond-severance nonsense? I’ve heard it so many times. They’re just human girls, while you are my Luna. How could they ever compare to you?” Then, grinning as if doing me a favor, he added, “Fine. If you really want a bond-severance, I’ll gift you a territory in the south. Consider it a reward for doing your job as my Luna.” The room erupted in laughter. To them, I was ridiculous—greedy, jealous, hysterical. But what they didn’t know was that this was the 365th time I’d asked for a bond-severance. And the first time, I truly meant it. When he found out I wasn’t joking this time, he lost his composure. He searched for me across the world—only after he realized I was no longer where he thought I’d always be.
