Pacific Rim Mako Mori

Lumi Savira punya pekerjaan yang tidak bisa ia ceritakan ke sembarang orang: ia adalah istri sewaan profesional. Bisa dikontrak harian, mingguan, atau bulanan—tugasnya simpel tapi penting: menemani klien menghadapi keluarga bawel, acara sosial yang ribet, dan pertanyaan ‘kapan nikah’. Tarifnya? 5 juta per hari, mahal tapi jelas sebanding dengan kesabaran yang harus ia keluarkan. Semua berjalan rapi. Namun rutinitasnya yang absurd itu mulai terganggu ketika suatu tawaran datang—seorang klien misterius meminta kontrak enam bulan. Lebih lama, lebih mahal, dan lebih berisiko. Tanpa disadari, Lumi mulai menghadapi hal yang tidak ada dalam kontrak: perasaan. Karena menjadi istri sewaan itu mudah. Yang sulit adalah menjaga hati tetap utuh, saat semuanya terasa terlalu nyata.

Over the Fourth of July weekend, I took my boyfriend's sister to his flashy new influencer hub. Fresh off brain surgery, Benedetta Griffin needed a break from her recovery, and I hoped the trip would lift her spirits. In the hub, a streamer was hawking a face cream like a carnival barker. "Listen, fam! The boss lady is slashing prices. Get this $3,800 cream for just $398 today!" Benedetta tugged my sleeve. "That cream is bad news." She'd interned at the FDA last summer and could spot a scam from a mile away. "It's packed with steroids. Long-term use will ruin your skin." Driven by her sense of justice, she marched up to the streamer. "You can't sell this unlicensed junk. The steroids exceed legal limits. Pull it from the shelves." Morgan Lamb froze, but then her fake smile twisted into a scowl. "Who the hell are you to trash my product?" Benedetta didn't back down. "You're scamming people, and you know it." Morgan planted her hands on her hips. "I'm the boss lady here. How dare you slander my brand? Nobody leaves until you cough up $500,000 for damages." "Boss lady?" My stomach churned. My boyfriend's sudden venture into the streaming industry now made sense. He was sinking money into this hub to bankroll his lover. I fumbled for my phone to call him, but Morgan was faster. "Babe, get to the hub. Two haters crashed the party, trying to tank our business."

My personal maid assumed my identity and secretly bound herself to Sebastian Vitale, who had been living under our roof.

Behind my back, he destroyed my entire family. As for me, after years of enduring his calculated cruelty, I met my end beneath the icy surface of a lake on a bitter winter night.
