Mata Monster

Untuk menyelamatkan keluarganya dari kehancuran, Naura Callista Wijaya terpaksa menerima pernikahan kontrak dengan pria yang paling ia takuti—Arka Rajendra Mahardika, CEO kejam yang dijuluki monster di dunia bisnis. Satu tanda tangan di atas kertas… dan hidup Naura tidak lagi menjadi miliknya. Ia harus meninggalkan Dion, pria yang ia cintai, untuk menikahi monster—dan menjalani pernikahan tanpa cinta dengan seorang pria yang katanya tidak memiliki hati. Setidaknya… itu yang ia pikirkan. Karena setelah menikah, Naura mulai menyadari sesuatu yang mengganggu. Arka tidak pernah memperlakukannya seperti istri kontrak. Tatapannya terlalu posesif. Sentuhannya terlalu menuntut. “Selama kamu memakai namaku,” bisiknya dingin di telinga Naura, “kamu adalah milikku.” Masalahnya… pria yang Naura tinggalkan belum benar-benar menyerah. Dan monster seperti Arka tidak pernah berbagi apa yang menjadi miliknya. Ketika dua pria itu akhirnya berhadapan, Naura sadar bahwa pernikahan ini bukan sekadar kontrak— Ini adalah perang yang bisa menghancurkan semuanya.

“Now tell me who you belong to?” Rael rasped, their breaths mingling together. He was her sister's fiancé, yet here he was, fucking her like he owned her. The feeling of being on the bed of the man her sister plans on marrying next month brought a sense of accomplishment to her being. “I'm yours, Rael. Fuck! I'm yours!” she almost screamed with another hard jab of his waist. “Wrong answer.” he muttered, pulling out of her just as she had almost reached her peak. … Blood seeped out of her chest just moments before she saw the other side of her stepsister. The sister who she trust most had not only sold her out to be raped by men from the black market, but had also had her murdered her.

But fate gives her a second chance, letting her go back in time a month before her sister's wedding. She will make everyone who hurt her pay. And the first step is stealing her sister's Fiancé, Rael Morgan–A billionaire known for being the coldest man in Country M. To own him and to watch her sister break, just like how she had broken. But never would she have expected things to turn out the way it did. He now owned her, refusing to let go. What starts as her own plot spirals into something darker. He possesses her.

Saat aku jatuh ke jurang kehancuran, Rangga Mahardika datang seperti malaikat penolong. Dia melunasi semua utang keluargaku, mengurus pemakaman ayahku, menarikku keluar dari abu kehidupan yang nyaris membakarku habis. Tiga tahun penuh, dia selalu mendampingiku. Selalu ada. Aku sempat percaya… mungkin inilah bentuk penyelamatan yang selama ini kutunggu. Namun, tepat di malam sebelum pernikahan, tanpa sengaja aku mendengar percakapan Rangga dengan sahabatnya... “Kamu serius mau nikah sama Vanya? Nggak takut, suatu hari dia tahu… kalau kematian ayahnya dan bangkrutnya bisnis Keluarga Devara itu ulahmu?” “Sarah sudah nikah sama Bastian, aku sudah nikah sama Vanya. Nggak masalah kalau dia tahu, toh semua utangnya sudah kubayar. Pemakaman ayahnya juga sudah aku urus. Intinya… aku sudah menebus semuanya.” Saat itu juga aku sadar… Ternyata, Rangga pun menipuku. Dari awal hingga akhir, semua hanyalah permainan. Dan satu-satunya orang yang benar-benar hanyut di dalamnya… hanyalah aku sendiri.

When I was seven, my constant vomiting got so bad that my mother took me to court and accused me of being born dangerous. If the charge stuck, I would be stripped of my family ties and sent straight to prison. Everyone said my mother was overreacting. "He's just a kid. Kids get sick. As his mother, you should be more understanding." But the moment the evidence was shown, the room went dead quiet. My mother had drunk herself into a stomach bleed just to land a contract, and the second she got home, I threw up all over it. The deal was voided, and she lost her job on the spot. On my sister, Ophelia Sowle's, birthday, I threw up all over her cake right in front of all her classmates. After that, she was shunned by everyone at school. She spiraled into depression and even slashed her wrists. It didn't matter where I was, at the dinner table or under the covers. I could start vomiting at any moment. My mother and Ophelia had to clean me up more than 30 times a day. It wore them down to the breaking point. What infuriated them the most was that every time I finished throwing up, I would look at them and laugh, as if I was mocking them. The judge brought the gavel down and declared me guilty of being born bad. Ophelia's eyes turned red as she cried, saying she couldn't bear to lose me. I didn't cry or fight it. I accepted the verdict. But I requested that the judge watch my memories first. The judge looked stunned. "Memory extraction means drilling into your brain. The pain is unbearable. Are you sure?" I nodded without hesitation. But Ophelia suddenly panicked. "I don't agree!"
