Maya Henry

Fresh out of college, Clara Stewart asked me to take on a $500,000 mortgage for her. When I refused, she turned around and bought an $800,000 villa in full, for another guy. Holding up the property deed, she told me: "Jayden, the truth is, I'm actually rich. I've been pretending to be poor to test you. Unfortunately, you failed. I'm disappointed in you. Let's break up." I simply smiled and walked away without a second thought. The irony? I'm the son of the richest man in the country. I was pretending to be broke, too. Fast forward four years, we met again at the National Wealth Summit. Clara had just barely made it into the top 50 on the list, clinging to the arm of Henry Brown as they entered. She spotted me in simple clothes with no visible brand, holding a child in one arm and the keys to a Porsche Cayenne in the other. Thinking I was someone's driver, she sneered: "Jayden, you really went all out just to see me again? Let's be real, you're just a driver now, and I'm on the wealth list. We live in completely different worlds. Don't waste your time fantasizing." I did not bother replying. Honestly, I was only there because my billionaire dad insisted. I had finally cleared a day to spend with my son and now I had to waste it on that.

She ran from her abusive father straight into the mansion of Italy’s most dangerous man. One drugged night changed everything. Now she’s carrying his child… and he thinks she planned it. Forced into marriage with a cold, ruthless mafia boss, Maya must survive jealous rivals, a vengeful father, and a war between crime lords .... all while trapped in a love that could destroy them both.

Henry has lived his life in the shadow of exile, struggling alongside his mother after being cast out of their pack. College offers him a chance at freedom, but also brings him closer to three powerful men whose love could change everything: Adrian, the kind school principal who sheltered him; Elias, the newly restored Alpha who promises him honor and belonging; and Damien Dowell, the billionaire CEO who offers passion and power. Torn between safety, destiny, and ambition, Henry must decide where his true heart lies. But which path will he choose? Which love will define his future?

Aku sudah tiga bulan tidak melihat suami mafiaku, Arga Pratama, dan putri kami, Dora. Kenapa? Karena ibunya Arga, Fiona, bilang Dora harus tinggal sementara bersamanya. Sementara Arga? Dia terlalu sibuk dengan urusan bisnis seperti biasanya. Jadi ketika Arga akhirnya menelpon dan bilang dia akan menjemputku untuk reuni keluarga di vila, aku begitu gembira. Aku pikir, mungkin, hanya mungkin, aku akhirnya bisa memeluk putriku lagi. Seharian aku berlari ke sana kemari di kota, membeli boneka favoritnya, camilan, gaun merah muda baru, apa pun yang kupikir bisa membuatnya tersenyum padaku lagi. Tapi ketika mobil itu datang, kenyataannya jauh dari bayanganku. Sebelum aku sempat bilang hai, Dora menoleh, menatapku sebentar... lalu memeluk Maya, si pembantu, lebih erat lagi. Dia menempelkan wajahnya ke leher Maya seolah aku tidak ada di situ. Seolah Maya adalah ibunya. Aku mencoba mendekatinya, tapi Dora tegas bilang dia tidak mau naik mobil bersamaku. Dan Maya dengan senyum sopan yang palsu, terus mencoba membujukku agar memberi Dora sedikit waktu lagi. Aku menoleh ke Arga, berharap dia turun tangan. Sebaliknya, dia cuma terlihat kesal, seolah tidak peduli untuk mengulurkan tangan membenahi hubunganku dengan putri kami. Jelas mereka tidak ingin aku ada di sana. Jadi, apa gunanya aku mencoba ikut naik mobil? Aku melangkah mundur dari SUV. Lalu Arga menoleh padaku dan bilang, "Tunggu di sini. Aku sebentar lagi kembali." Yang tidak akan pernah dia mengerti... aku sudah lelah menunggu dia.
