My daughter has been kidnapped, and the kidnapper is asking for five million dollars as ransom. I can just about scrounge the money together, but the kidnapper makes it clear that he wants a life in exchange for my daughter's. He'll take the money and kill the person who brings it to him. I smoke throughout the night, my eyes bloodshot as I try to think of something. Then, I fix my gaze on my mother, who is now senile and insane.

I’ve always been someone with a strong, restless libido I can’t quite explain. I’ve never gone to a doctor about it, but I know myself well enough to realize it’s something that comes and goes in waves, especially when I'm ovulating. During that time of the month, I'd need to do it two to three times a day or my body would feel extremely uncomfortable. Normally, my tall, broad-shouldered husband would be the one to ease that ache and fill the emptiness in me. However, lately he’s been impossibly busy, away on business trips for weeks at a time…

Opening my eyes in an unfamiliar place with unknown faces surrounding me, everything started there. I have to start from the beginning again, because I am no longer Ayla Navarez and the world I am currently in, was completely different from the world of my past life. Rumi Penelope Lee. The cannon fodder of this world inside the novel I read as Ayla, in the past. The character who only have her beautiful face as the only ' plus ' point in the novel, and the one who died instead of the female lead of the said novel. She fell inlove with the male lead and created troubles on the way. Because she started loving the male lead, her pitiful life led to met her end. Death. Because she's stupid. Literally, stupid. A fool in everything. Love, studies, and all. The only thing she knew of, was to eat and sleep, then love the male lead while creating troubles the next day. Even if she's rich and beautiful, her halo as a cannon fodder won't be able to win against the halo of the heroine. That's why I've decided. Let's ruin the plot. Because who cares about following it, when I, Ayla Navarez, who became Rumi Penelope Lee overnight, would die in the end without even reaching the end of the story? Inside this cliché novel, let's continue living without falling inlove, shall we?

“Sandiwara yang kita buat adalah api yang kita pijak. Jadi … tolong padamkan apinya.” Jiraya Pramesti membuat kesepakatan sepihak bahwa ia dan Angelo Wiratama mempunyai waktu 25 hari untuk melancarkan aksi pernikahan mereka sesuai dengan perjodohan dari orangtua mereka. Dan setelahnya, bagaimana pun caranya, Jira merancang plot murahan dengan bumbu-bumbu drama yang ia kira cukup ampuh untuk menghancurkan pernikahannya nanti di depan orangtua mereka demi menggagalkan perjodohan ini. Demi kepentingan bersama. Jira akan kembali kepada kekasih tercinta, Samuel. Angelo akan kembali pada dunianya sendiri tanpa embel-embel nama wanita di dalamnya. Hal yang memang ia inginkan. Namun, sandiwara tetaplah sandiwara. Bagai karma yang memang diutus oleh Tuhan, semuanya bisa saja tidak semulus yang mereka bayangkan. Atau bahkan mungkin Tuhan justru berpihak pada ‘drama’ murahan mereka?

Because of what I witnessed the night before my wedding that really broke my heart. I decided to push my plan of seducing Frederik Wilford for my sister to taste my sweetest revenge for making me feel worthless and unwanted.

Revenge is the sweetest dish served cold, especially when the mastermind is none other but a Demon. Could there be more to a seemingly weak Alpha of the Moonstone Pack that no one knew? Could the reigning darkness completely consume a vengeful damned soul?

Mom dies of rage when she discovers that the bride at my wedding has become Nelly Johnson, Harvey Fisher's business partner. My wedding turns into Mom's funeral the moment she breathes her last breath. Despite that, Harvey insists that the ceremony continue as planned. He even orders me to put the wedding ring on Nelly's finger. "Hurry up and put it on! I'll explain everything to you tonight!" he snarls. I ignore him and leave the hotel with Mom's body in my arms. The wedding ends with a banging success at 8:00 pm. Nelly updated her social media with a post that's liked by tens of thousands of people. "I've finally married the light of my life! I'd like to thank a certain homewrecker for leaving after remembering her place." Harvey updates his social media with a similar post. "Those who are unworthy don't deserve to be loved." I like both their posts in the ice-cold morgue. I comment, "I wish you two a lifetime of happiness." Then, I head home with Mom's ashes. When I enter the house, I see Harvey holding Nelly tightly while making out with her.
