Arum pikir setiap luka pasti meninggalkan darah. Nyatanya, tidak. Luka yang Damar tinggalkan hanya berupa perasaan kalah dan putus asa, lalu menjelma menjadi kebencian yang begitu mendalam. Kali ini wanita itu tengah duduk di kursi kerjanya dengan setangkup harapan, berharap akan ada secercah harapan untuknya. Ia mulai memainkan jemarinya dilayar keyboard yang sudah lama tidak ia sentuh. "Rum, selamat ya kamu diterima? filenya sudah jadi belum?" tanya Lestari. Arum mendongak mencari arah suara. "Iya sebentar lagi ... makasih berkat kamu juga kan." "Bagaimana pernikahanmu?" Pertanyaan itu terlontar begitu saja dari mulut Lestari. Hening. "Talak tiga." Lestari melotot kaget. "Apa ... gila. Sudah hentikan isak tangismu itu, terdengar bos bisa dipecat nanti. Lagian dunia juga belum kiamat kan jika kamu tidak bersamanya."

Suamiku sengaja membawa putra kami pergi bersamanya agar dia bisa makan malam dengan cinta pertamanya tanpa dicurigai.

Dia melukai Wenny dan nggak mau minta maaf, suruh dia pulang sekarang juga!"

Calista Arden has tried to seduce her husband, Theodore Montclair, for the 999th time, only to fail in consummating her marriage with him as always. Afterward, she calls her older brother, Elijah Arden. "I'm planning on getting a divorce, Elijah." Elijah remains silent for three whole seconds over the line. Finally, he speaks up in a deep, gravelly tone, "I already told you before that it's impossible for you to drill through Theodore's stone-cold heart no matter how hard you try." With reddened eyes, Calista can only chuckle quietly. "Yeah. I'm the overconfident fool here." "Come to Nordland," Elijah says lightly. "There are plenty of hunks here who are as good-looking as Theodore. Since that idiot doesn't know how to cherish my amazing and adorable sister, he can just spend the rest of his life as a devoted man of religion who has no family of his own."

Three year after my death, my former mate returned— not to mourn me, but to make use of me one last time. It was the Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year—the night when wolves whispered to the dead. “Where’s Mira Thorne?” Rowan demanded as he strode downstairs into the tavern beneath the den. “Her lived here—Gavin’s sister. I need to find her.” Dorian, the tavern keeper, glanced up slowly. “Mira?” he repeated, wiping his hands on a cloth. “She’s gone, Doctor. Died three winters ago. Same night the Moon rose red.” Rowan’s brows knit. “Dead? That’s impossible. There’s no record.” Dorian’s voice softened. “The family from that healing case—remember them? They found her in the alley behind this inn. Tore her apart before dawn. The healers couldn’t even retrieve her wolf.” Rowan froze, a flicker of disbelief passing across his face before irritation took over. “No. She’s pretending. She’s doing this to make me feel guilty.” he said sharply. “She’s hiding. She always was weak. Tell her if her doesn’t come out within three days, I’ll stop sending money for brother’s treatment.” He turned abruptly and left, the tavern door slamming behind him. Dorian sighed after him., shaking his head. “brother? Her brother died before the healers even arrived… there was never any money for treatment.” The silence that followed was heavier than snow. Dorian watched the falling snow and murmured to the empty air, “No one pretends death, Doctor. Not when they’ve already lost everything.”

"Kalau kamu nggak mau menitipkan bapak kamu ke kerabatnya, bawa aja ke panti jompo, atau taruh di jalanan. Pasti bakal ada orang kaya yang mau memelihara! Membesarkan dua anak aja gaji kamu pas-pasan, apalagi harus merawat bapak kamu yang setiap hari harus pakai popok dan minum obat!"
