Everything was fine until her father became ill and she required a large sum of money for his operation and daily medications; she couldn't afford to lose her father. Celeztine was known as being a demure and modest woman in class but she'll turn herself into another lady they didn't expect her to be, she'll become the mistress of a well-known Governor in the city, no love, just money. Zeus Lincoln, the famed drop-dead gorgeous snob architecture student, is the man who controls her heart. She made a mistake by allowing him to date her; she underestimated how difficult it would be for them to be together, especially when she discovered that the guy she genuinely loves is the Governor's son.

As if the fact that I got pregnant the very first time I decided to have sex and lose my V-card to my sexy and dominating billionaire boss wasn't bad enough, he suddenly hates my guts for reasons unbeknownst to me. Yeah I know. Bad right? He calls me a gold digger after his money, and made it clear he had a fiancee he was going to marry. Will he take responsibility, or would he reject me and my baby? "I'm pregnant." I blurted out and looked everywhere else but him, he was so intimidating and I was so damn nervous. "So?" He didn't even look up from what he was doing, clearly not interested in what I was saying. "It's yours Jason." He suddenly looked up at me sharply with his piercing eyes shooting daggers at me. "What the fuck do you mean by that?" I was so screwed!

Lyra is an Omega who could not shift into her wolf form. Her life is just a shell lying in ruins since a strange disease wiped out her entire pack and left her the only survivor. That was when Devon came along and rescued her. Her mate, and her nightmare. Devon never wanted a weak one as his future Luna but he couldn't reject this little omega due to the King's law. He bruised her, tormented her, and treated her like the dirt beneath his shoe. However, when he finally got rid of this weak omega, he could never expect what treasure he had missed. Lyra had no time to celebrate her escape from hell when fate sent a new mockery. Her second mate turned out to be the even mightier Lycan King Julian, and he also refused to announce her as his mate but turned her to be his private slave.

As I secured the safety rope, I discovered that the metal clip had been replaced with a flimsy plastic ring. My girlfriend, already on the soft ladder, dismissed my concern casually. "Ryan has got a ton of luggage. One clip isn't enough to keep it secure, so I gave him yours. Just wait for the next trip." In desperation, I pointed to the floodwaters surging past my chest. "But I can't swim!" "Cut the drama, okay?" she huffed. "You're a swimming champ. What's the big deal about treading water for a bit? Ryan is related to my boss, and if anything happens to him, my promotion is down the drain. Can't you be reasonable?" "Is his luggage more important than my life?" I shot back, lunging for the ladder. But she kicked me away. "I've checked. The water won't rise too fast. At worst, it'll reach your neck. You'll survive." Refusing to argue further, I watched the floodwaters rage higher and quickly pressed a special emergency beacon on my wrist.

"Dia siapa, Ma?" Entah kenapa aku gugup sendiri saat tanya itu mencuat. Aku belum berani melihat jelas wajahnya. Sampai Bu Tya memperkenalkanku padanya. "Ning, kenalkan ini anak sulung saya, Zen Maulana. Zen, ini Ning yang mau bantu mama bersih-bersih rumah. Dia juga mau kerja di kantin kampus." Aku yang baru saja menginjakkan kaki di anak tangga terakhir terlonjak kaget. Nama itu, tidak asing bagiku. Apa hanya sebuah kebetulan nama lengkapnya sama. Aku memberanikan diri melihat wajah anak sulung Bu Tya. Seketika kotak yang kupegang jatuh membuat isinya berhamburan. Rasa-rasanya kepalaku bagai dihantam palu. Aku tidak menyangka akan bertemu laki-laki masa lalu di rumah besar ini. Nasib yang menurutku baik bertemu Bu Tya ternyata disertai kejutan besar bertemu orang yang membuatku tidak tenang di tiga tahun terakhir hidupku. "Zen? Dia benar-benar Zen yang sama, Zen Maulana." Tanganku mendadak tremor. Bulir keringat sebesar biji jagung bermunculan. Bahkan tenggorokan terasa tercekat. Aku dilanda ketakutan seperti seorang penjahat yang menanti eksekusi hukuman. Pandangan mulai mengabur dan gelap. Lutut lemas seolah tak bertulang, aku terhuyung. Sebelum kesadaranku hilang, sayup-sayup telingaku menangkap suara. Nama panggilan yang biasa Zen sebut untukku. "Han!" Simak ceritanya, yuk.

Ayahku menganggap aku terlalu pemberontak, jadi dia menyerahkanku kepada Damian, menugaskannya untuk membentukku menjadi seorang wanita anggun. Bagi dunia luar, Damian adalah pemimpin kejam dari sebuah kerajaan mafia. Tapi bagiku, dia hanyalah pria dengan wajah yang selalu terlihat tegang. Aku mencoba segala cara untuk menentangnya. Aku merusakkan mobilnya. Lalu aku menukar berkas presentasinya dengan rekaman komedi murahan yang paling dia benci dan dia baru menyadarinya saat membuka berkas itu di rapat perusahaaan. Namun, setiap pemberontakanku selalu berakhir sama. Dia memojokkanku, tubuhnya yang besar menutupi tubuhku di atas seprai sutra ranjangnya yang besar, di meja ek yang mengilap, atau di kursi belakang mobilnya yang berlapis kulit. Hangat tubuhnya menyentuh kulitku, jarinya menyapu lekukku seperti bara yang membakar. Gerakannya dipenuhi hasrat liar yang membuatku hampir kehilangan napas. Tubuhku selalu bereaksi meski pikiranku menolak, hingga perlawanku luluh menjadi desahan, dan kehendakku remuk di bawah tindihannya yang tanpa henti. Aku jatuh cinta padanya sepenuhnya, yakin bahwa ini cinta sejati, dan dia adalah cahaya di dunia gelapku. Tapi kenyataannya menghancurkanku. Semua itu hanyalah permainan terencana untuk menaklukkanku, agar aku berhenti berperang dengan kakakku, Karina. Cahaya penunjuk jalanku padam, atau mungkin itu sebenarnya tak pernah ada. Jadi aku menjadi gadis baik dan berhenti melawan. Dia pikir dia sudah menaklukkanku, terikat pada kemauannya. Tapi pada akhirnya, aku berhasil lepas dan meninggalkannya sendiri dengan hati yang hancur.

“Beta Andre is my mate?… Oh moon goddess why?” Lillian is a Doctor who had left the pack when she was fifteen. An high school student who was opportune to be in the same institution with the sons of the Alpha and beta—Drake and Andre, with their best friend, Lucas. Despite their social class and untouchable status, she found herself falling deeper and deeper for Drake—the son of the Alpha, which led her to make an unbelievable mistake that made her life in the school and pack so unbearable that she had to relocate to a faraway pack to start her life anew. After some time, she was required to return to where it all started, back to the nightmare she had been running from all her life and had intended to do so quietly until everything came crashing down when she stumbled on her fated mate and she was then torn between the one her heart truly desires and the one meant for her heart. But fate and matters of the heart may be delayed, but can never be denied. This is a story of passion and intense emotions…of pain and regret…..of pure love and patience interwoven in every word, sentences and character and a question boldly hanging over it; Can one successfully decides one’s fate, not minding the one destined for him?
