On Top The World Imagine Dragons Lyrics

My husband is a rock climbing route setter. It's our wedding anniversary today, but he brings his female best friend with him on an adventure to discover uncharted territory. It comes about because his female best friend says life is so boring. We're trapped in the mountains when we encounter extreme weather, and the rescue helicopter can only take two people with them. They climb up the ladder deftly, leaving me to slowly grow colder in the rain. I shout his name with all my strength. "I have a heart condition! I'll die if I don't get to the hospital soon!" He throws a rope down at me without even sparing me a glance. "Luna has menstrual cramps—she never says she's in pain. You, on the other hand, are only good at acting. Think of a way to get down yourself." What he doesn't know is that his "good friend" has already sliced the rope he threw to me.

Langkah Hera terdengar pelan di lorong hotel. Sepatu hak pemberian tamu ke-2 ini terlalu sempit, itu sudah 5 tahun lalu, tapi ia belum mampu mengganti sepatu prada yang seperti itu . Bagi orang lain, gaun merahnya mungkin tampak mewah. Bagi Hera, itu cuma seragam. Topeng. Tangannya menggenggam erat tas kecil Hermes pemberian tamu ke-3. Di dalamnya hanya ada dompet tipis, lipstik murahan, dan kartu mahasiswa yang hampir jatuh tempo. Mahasiswa. Ya, itulah Hera di siang hari. Mahasiswi Sastra tahun akhir. Tapi di malam hari… ia menjual dirinya. Ia tidak pernah menyangka akan sejauh ini. Semua karena satu hal, uang. Adiknya butuh operasi, dan orangtuanya bahkan tak mampu bayar listrik. Hera belajar terlalu dini bahwa cerita di buku-buku tak pernah menyelamatkan orang miskin. Dan malam ini, ia harus menghadapi klien yang berbeda. Klien yang bahkan manajer tempat “kerjanya” tadi berulang-ulang, mengingatkannya, “Jangan macam-macam. Dia bukan orang biasa.” "hmm memangnya tamu seperti apa dia?" Hera menghitung jemarinya "oh, pria ini adalah tamu yang ke-9" Hera menghitung mereka untuk meyakinkan dirinya sendiri bahwa dia tidaklah semurahan itu. Managernya selalu bilang " Jangan banyak pilah pilih, untung cantik kalau tidak mah bisa gawat!" Pintu kamar 1705 terbuka otomatis. Sosok pria duduk di kursi dekat jendela, punggungnya menghadap Hera. Gelas anggur di tangannya berkilau diterpa cahaya lampu kristal. Pria itu bahkan tidak menoleh ketika Hera masuk. “Duduklah.” Suaranya berat, dalam, tapi tenang. Hera menelan ludah. Biasanya klien akan langsung tersenyum, meraba atau yang paling ekstrim langsung menerkamnya tanpa busana. Tapi pria ini? Ia hanya memandang keluar jendela, seolah keberadaan Hera bukanlah hal penting.

Kairo Evel Monoxo has always been used to the life that he wants. Playing, non-committing, nagagawa niya ang lahat ng gusto niya. Nakukuha ang lahat ng nais. Until one day, he met an untamable, feisty wave along the way. He was mesmerized by it. He was challenged. He wants to hold her and have a grasp on her world. But she doesn't... A few years later and he found himself still chasing it endlessly. Still whipped and damned crazy for the thing that he has already been pursuing for years. It was the only thing that he still can't have. The only one that he can't manipulate or control. Sa patuloy na pagdami ng pagsubok sa buhay, magagawa ba niyang kamtan ang ninanais? Can trust allow you to risk yourself even when all odds are stacked against you? Kagaya ng ulan na madalas ay banayad, magagawa ba niyang hintaying tumila ito? Kahit na hindi alam kung bahaghari ba ang nasa dulo?

My best friend wanted to adopt an injured kitten. Seeing the cat’s unusual appearance, I suddenly recalled a state-protected animal called the manul. Its young resembled cats but were exceptionally ferocious. So, I advised her against keeping it. But my friend would not listen to me and brought it back to our rental apartment. Unexpectedly, the manul seemed to understand human emotions and harbored a grudge against me. Five years later, it suddenly burst into my home and killed my entire family. I lunged to kill it, only to have my throat torn. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day my best friend adopted the manul. This time, I did not stop her from taking it in.

I was ten when my Omega mother mated the Alpha of the Blackwood Pack. My stepbrother, Draven, never let me forget how I’d diluted their pure blood. With his silent blessing, the entire pack became a weapon to carry out his hate. During a full moon hunt, he gave the nod. That's all it took. His followers "accidentally" pushed me in front of a raging stag. I felt its antlers rip my shoulder open. He looked down at me, his golden eyes dripping with scorn. “Don’t think you’re one of us just because your mother latched onto my father. Weaklings get culled. And I’ll be the one to kick you off my land.” At his command, they'd ruin my offerings to the Moon Goddess. They shredded my coming-of-age gown with silver blades. Through it all, my mother would only look at me with shame. My stepfather, the great Alpha, just saw me as a troublesome brat. I made myself small, desperate for a scrap of kindness. But it only made me the pack outcast. Hated and completely alone. Until Draven’s best friend, Liam—the Alpha heir to the Rage River Pack—showed interest in me at the werewolf academy. For the first time ever, Draven left me alone. I thought Liam was my only light in the darkness. On my birthday, I gave myself to him completely. The next day, I overheard him talking to Draven. Draven’s voice was low, laced with venom. “Did you get the video? Of the half-blood losing control mid-fuck?” Liam chuckled. “Of course. Gotta admit, she feels amazing. So soft… a real temptation. Almost got me hooked. But just in bed. The thought of her dirty blood…If it wasn’t to help you get even, I would’ve never touched a weak-blooded Omega like her.” I clamped a hand over my mouth, tears streaming down my face. My only hope was a lie. But they didn't know. I’d already applied to the Valeriana Werewolf Institute. And I wasn’t coming back.

My best friend and I had been abducted by the Pendragon brothers—a duo consisting of a religious CEO and a top-billed movie star. We became their secret lovers against our will. "I'm pregnant, Lilith," my best friend said, tears glistening in her eyes. "Me too, Lindsay," I replied softly, caressing my belly. "But I won't go through with it." The brothers heard us. Their control tightened. They watched us during mealtimes, while we slept, and even during our bathroom breaks. We could not endure it any longer, so we fought back. In their anger, the brothers kept mistresses who resembled us. We thought we were free until one day, they found us. They called us homewreckers and hurled insults at us. They broke into our house, scarred our faces, broke our legs, and kicked us until we miscarried. It did not matter how much we tried to explain ourselves. They removed our clothes and paraded us in the street. Finally, the Pendragons arrived. They raised their marriage certificates and declared, "Lilith and Lindsay are our wives!"
