No Call No Life

Theo Oblinger can't be arsed to admit that he feels a bit stuck. At 26, he's in the middle of finishing his PhD, thinks love just isn’t for him and plays the piano at an exclusive Club during the weekends. On a bleak Saturday night, he meets the owner’s son, Sam Wilcox, who might just help him get out of that place.

Bekerja sebagai seorang anggota polis berjawatan tinggi cukup membuatkan ASP Jimmy sentiasa disanjungi. Namun, lumrah manusia. Dalam seribu menyukai, pasti ada satu yang membenci. Thufaila Ajwa, jiran setaman yang sentiasa menganggap ASP Jimmy hidup dalam dunia kepura-puraan. Apa yang pasti, gadis itu sangat membecinya kerana kisah silam mereka. Prinsip Thufaila hanya satu.Selagi kudratnya masih ada, walaupun sesaat dia tidak akan membenarkan dirinya di bantu oleh lelaki spesis Jimmy. “Sekarang ini memanglah engkau tak perlukan aku lagi. Tapi nanti, percayalah yang kau perlukan aku dalam hidup kau. So, if anything happens just call my name!" -ASP JIMMY “Aku rasa mata aku ni membawa satu sumpahan! Kadang, aku rasa aku nak butakan mata disebabkan mata aku boleh tembus nampak ke dinding.” -AHMAD Kehadiran Ahmad sebagai jiran sebelah rumah Thufaila, membawa seribu misteri. Karakter dingin dan penampilan Ahmad berkaca mata hitam sepanjang masa, menjadi tanda tanya insan sekeliling. Di sebalik gaya yang cukup misteri, hanya ASP Jimmy sahaja yang mengetahui kelebihan Ahmad yang mampu meneliti objek tersembunyi di sebalik dinding. Pandangan mata boleh tembus ke dinding? Macam cerita fantasi saja bunyinya. Tapi itulah realiti yang Ahmad hadapi. Datangnya membawa ASP Jimmy mengembara ke peristiwa yang lama. Kerana dia, lelaki itu sanggup mengkaji semula kes pembunuhan bersiri, dua puluh tahun yang lalu. Kebenaran di sebalik pembunuhan bersiri itu perlukan jawapan. "Kenapa tuan sibuk nak buka semula kes lama? Kita nak cari dalang sebenar untuk kes Razlan Ishak! bukannya kes pembunuhan bersiri yang dah basi." Kerana tekadnya untuk merungkai sebuah misteri, kini ASP Jimmy berdepan masalah. Orang yang disayangi menjadi sasaran dan berdepan bahaya. "Kalau engkau nak betina ni selamat, engkau serahkan Ahmad dekat aku! Sebab dia tu hak aku. Engkau pilih antara dua. Ahmad atau dia." ASP Jimmy buntu. Mampukah dia menjadi pelindung buat Thufaila sedangkan dia tahu si gadis tidak perlukannya? Mampukah dia menempuh segalanya andai hati berbelah bahagi?

Shantal’s life ends in a car accident… and her story should end there. But it does not. Shantal wakes up one year earlier. She remembers everything, every lonely night, every cold look, and the moment she died. This time, she does not beg.

The divorce is delayed. The empire shifts. People begin watching Shantal like she is a key they need to control. And Shantal starts to see the truth: her first death may have been no accident. Now Shantal has one chance to change her fate. One chance to uncover who wanted her gone. And one chance to make sure she never dies for love again.

Before our marking ceremony, my fiancé, Adrian Conner, insists on bringing his childhood sweetheart along on our trip—all because Flora Wooledge says she also wants to see the northern lights. He switches my first-class ticket to Flora's name. He says, "I'll fly first class with Flora. You can take connecting flights by land. The doctor said it's not good for a pregnant woman to stay at high altitude for too long." I don't cry or argue. Instead, I calmly push him toward Flora. He snorts. "You've finally learned to behave. You're not as clingy and troublesome as before." After he leaves, I quietly sign the abortion consent form at the hospital. Then, I book a ticket to the southern hemisphere. In my past life, I begged and clung to him, hoping to keep him with our pup. But on that trip, Flora was attacked by rogue wolves and torn apart in the snow. Adrian kept a calm facade. Yet on the night I was about to give birth, he dragged me back home and cut open my belly with his own hands. He stood there and listened as our pup's cries slowly faded away. He poured all his hatred onto me. He believed I caused Flora's death and that I ruined his chance to become the Conner family's heir. To him, I was nothing more than a sacrificial pawn. In this new life, when I step off the private jet, I see Adrian standing there with his eyes bloodshot. He stares at my belly and asks, "Where's the pup?" Before I can answer, his half-brother wraps an arm around my waist. "Adrian, show some respect to your sister-in-law."

My boyfriend, Drew Myers, has proposed to me 99 times. Meanwhile, his childhood sweetheart, Tammy Fowler, has relapsed into depression 99 times. When Drew makes his 100th proposal, Tammy's depression strikes once more. As usual, he picks up Tammy's call, a gentle smile playing on his lips. With a tired sigh, he turns to me and says, "She's having another breakdown. We'll have to put the proposal on hold this time." Despite it being my birthday, Drew starts clearing away the freshly served dishes as if it were any other day. Fearing I might complain, he shoots me a cold, disapproving glance. "I know you're jealous of Tammy, but she's the one who's struggling. You're a soldier. You should be the bigger person and give her some leeway." Not only does Drew want me to eat Tammy's scraps, but he also orders me to bring them climbing gear at midnight. When Tammy shares intimate photos of them hugging online, his only reaction is to lash out at me. "Do you honestly find satisfaction in pushing Tammy to another breakdown? Is this the honor of a soldier? Your cruelty sickens me!" Over and over, he tears down my character and mocks my integrity. But this time, I simply look down at the special forces recruitment letter in my hand and say nothing. Drew remains oblivious. At last, I'm the one who's letting go.

By accident, I stumbled upon my husband's secret. There were cameras covering every corner of our house, but I stayed silent and pretended not to know about them. One day, I faked leaving home and hid in the closet, only to hear my husband fooling around with his mistress. Jared's breath was short from exertion. "Faster. We have less than 20 minutes before Vanessa gets back." His mistress giggled. "Relax. Her eyesight is terrible." Jared growled. "Shut up! Vanessa is my wife. Say another thing about her, and I'll throw you out!" What he didn't know was that my eyesight had been cured. My vision was as sharp as anyone else's. I stepped out of the closet with a choked sob and called my brother. "I'll go to Murica."

Everyone in the social circle of Kingsford said I was nothing more than a lapdog raised by Charles Mankin. I was always at his beck and call. I did every filthy, ludicrous thing for him under the sun. When he street raced, I rode shotgun. When he drank himself senseless, I made him hangover soup. When he chased girls, I prepared protection for them. Over time, everyone knew: Charles had a dog who never ran, never bit back, no matter how hard he kicked. They all said I must be madly in love with him. Even Charles started to believe it. So he pushed further, more freely, more cruelly, crossing lines as if they never existed. Then came my twenty-fifth birthday. He, in a rare stroke of mercy, said he'd celebrate it with me. But instead, what he got was the news that I was leaving the country. He went berserk, charging through the airport like a man possessed. I peeled his fingers off my wrist one by one, smiling like I'd never been happier. "Don't be stupid," I told him, still smiling. "That was never love." That night, Charles smashed apart his family home like a rabid dog.
