Eight years after I married that award-winning actor, he publicly declared he was dating the top starlet, Celine James. He even posted a picture of the two of them celebrating their adopted “baby’s” birthday. I did not call him to interrogate him as usual. Instead, he hurriedly explained, “It’s just a pet we adopted. As its ‘dad’, I have to be there for its birthday.” I said calmly, “Rather than adopting a furbaby, why don’t we get a divorce? Then you can have an actual baby with her.”

18+ Niat ingin bertemu dengan calon tunangannya, Emily justru dimanfaatkan oleh kekasihnya, dan berakhir tidur dengan Benedict, CEO Maven Group yang dikenal dengan sebutan si arogan berambut perak! Di saat Emily berusaha melupakannya, Emily justru kembali bertemu dengan pria itu, bahkan ditawarkan untuk menjadi "wanita"nya! --- Benedict menyampirkan rambut Emily, lalu melabuhkan kecupannya di bibir gadis itu. Ciuman hangat itu dalam sekejap berubah menjadi panas, hingga membuat Emily meremang. Dia tak tahu, apa ini demam ataukah panas tubuh mereka berdua yang menyebabkannya. Emily tahu, dia harus memberikan sedikit makanan pada anjing pemburu agar mau berburu untuknya. Anggap saja ciuman ini adalah makanan itu. Jadi, ketika Benedict mulai bergerilya meminta lebih dari sekedar ciuman, Emily mendorong Benedict. Lalu, memberi satu tamparan keras pada pria itu, membuat Benedict yang tidak mengira akan hal tersebut tertegun. "Apa yang kau lakukan?" seru pria itu. Emily mengetatkan genggaman di tangannya. "Kau mengambil kegadisanku, Tuan berambut perak, setidaknya kau harus membiarkanku menamparmu meski sekali."

On Valentine’s Day, I discovered that my brother’s fiancee, Erika Gibson, was cheating on him. So, I tried to tell my brother, Nathan Clinton, about it. However, he yelled at me. He said that I was trying to ruin his relationship and told me to leave. Erika then asked her lover to deal with me, so he kidnapped me. He mocked me for being unable to speak and forced me to sell 200 roses at the night market. I asked Nathan for help, but he replied impatiently. [Moon, I can’t believe you’d lie about something like this… I don’t have time for your games.] I was accidentally hit by a truck while Nathan was having a wonderful time with Erika. Haha. I was finally free, but I wished I had a different brother.

*story completed* When the Black-fur Hades meets the no-fur Doll, he can just feel his comfortable life as a back-alley fixer slipping through his paw. Being contracted to take the no-fur away from trouble brewing with his mobster owners to a breeding farm upstate seems like a straightforward enough job. But when it comes to dealing with this particular no-fur, nothing is straightforward. Bestselling authors Hermit & Star have created another steamy, dark world - this time with anthropomorphic feline Alphas and their no-fur Omegas!

Liam Smith, an orphan, has had a dream for years; to become a star of the ever famous Lotus Pond Entertainment company. However, when he meets the famous and attractive CEO of the company, notorious playboy, Kain Jones, things take an unexpected turn. Kain is unfriendly, rude and even rejects Liam’s wishes of joining the company! Kain is not at all what Liam had expected his childhood star to be like at all! Disappointed, but not put off, Liam refuses to give up on his dreams of becoming a star and vows to do anything to get that chance, including doing whatever Kain demands of him, but just how far is Liam willing to go? "Your fervent, misguided sense of entitlement is stunning," Kain snarls at me. His nose twitches in indignation before a slow, cruel smirk crawls over his lips. He mouths the word 'anything', repeating what I had just said before leaning in and taking my chin into his fingers, brushing my lips with his thumb as he says in a low growl, "why don't you show me...”

When I opened my eyes, I found myself supposedly transmigrated to some ancient era. Every morning, before light touched the sky, someone would yank me out of bed to haul trash, chop wood, and do whatever filthiest job needed doing. Somehow, I'd become the lowest-ranked servant in the entire estate. The estate lord's son would climb onto my back and ride me around the courtyard like some pet he was proud to show off. Anyone in the household could hit me, kick me, or shove me aside, and not a single soul would speak up. Five years passed like that, so awful that I almost lost my mind, as if I were living in hell. Then one day, a group of servants cornered me. They didn't bother hiding their intention. The moment I saw their faces, I knew I was in trouble. Fists flew, boots landed, and everything blurred. Just before I passed out, I heard them whispering, "We're going to kill him if we keep this up." "Come on. This place only looks like some old noble estate. It's not an actual one. If he dies here, we're the ones who'll get dragged to court!" "Relax. Ms. Shaw will handle it. The idiot pissed off her childhood sweetheart. Getting tricked into this place is exactly what he deserves." Fear swallowed everything, and the world went dark. When I woke again, the lady of the house had conveniently "returned from visiting her family." The lord threw a grand celebration with tables full of food, wine flowing, and musicians playing like nothing had happened. I carried dishes into the banquet hall and lifted my head. Her face was the same as my wife's, Melissa Shaw. I set the final dish down, stepped closer, and in a voice only she could hear, asked, "Ma'am… are you enjoying your little game?"

"Terserah kau mau percaya atau tidak. Tapi sejujurnya aku katakan kalau aku lebih suka tidur di samping onggokan sampah daripada tidur denganmu." Suara Eva sarat dengan amarah. Betapa menjijikkan dan sombongnya pria itu karena telah membuat video tentang apa yang terjadi tadi malam lalu memutarnya kembali di hadapannya seperti ini. Suaminya hanya ingin mempermalukannya. "Apakah kau kesal karena tadi malam aku tidak melakukannya hingga lima kali denganmu, Eva? Uhm, atau mungkin kau hanya ingin hamil anakku sehingga statusmu sebagai istriku tidak perlu dipertanyakan lagi?" Eva menghela napas, sudah cukup dengan omong kosong ini. Dia tidak ingin dipermalukan lagi oleh suaminya. "Yang harus kau lakukan hanyalah menandatangani kertas ini, Aiden. Tanda tangani saja surat perceraian kita lalu ceraikan aku." Aiden memalingkan kepalanya. "Apa yang baru saja kau katakan? Sebuah perceraian, hm? Tidak semudah itu, Sayang. Siapa yang memberi ide di kepalamu kalau aku akan melepaskanmu?"
