Pintu Engineering Wood

Aku pernah mencoba menggoda tunanganku yang tanpa tergoda oleh nafsu duniawi sebanyak 999 kali. Bahkan saat aku berdiri telanjang bulat di hadapannya, dia hanya akan bertanya apakah aku kedinginan. Awalnya, aku mengira dia hanya taat pada aturan dan baru akan menyentuhku setelah menikah. Namun, pada hari jadi kami, aku justru menemukan bahwa diam-diam dia telah memesan kamar di hotel terkenal di kota ini. Malam itu, aku datang ke ruang VIP dengan penuh harapan. Namun, aku justru menyaksikan dia dan teman masa kecilnya berciuman mesra di tengah sorakan orang banyak, seolah dunia hanya milik mereka. Setelah berdiri semalaman di depan pintu kamar, akhirnya aku menyadari satu hal, dia memang tidak mencintaiku. Setelah keluar dari hotel, aku menelepon rumah. "Ayah, aku nggak jadi menikah dengan Nathan. Aku ingin menikah dengan Darius!" Teh di mulut ayah langsung menyembur keluar. "Putriku Sayang, putra Keluarga Russell itu beberapa tahun lalu mengalami kecelakaan. Katanya, bagian bawah tubuhnya nggak berfungsi. Kalau kamu menikah dengannya, bukankah itu sama saja dengan menjadi janda hidup?" Aku menjawab dengan putus asa, "Punya anak atau nggak, sudah nggak penting lagi bagiku."

Erangan silih berganti terdengar dari balik pintu kamar perempuan bernama Cersey Avriana. Dia adalah seseorang yang kini telah hadir dalam rumah tangga Dyandra Saraswati dan Arka Hasbyan. Lenguhan panjang sang lelaki mengucap berbagai kalimat panas nyata terdengar langsung di telinga sang istri. Dyandra hafal kebiasan suaminya yang juga sering mengucapkan hal sama persis kepada dirinya saat mereka sedang bercinta, terutama saat hendak mencapai klimaks. Nafas Dyandra tersengal-sengal. Ia dalam kondisi shock. Matanya terbelalak. Kaki mulai terasa lemas dan berat untuk melangkah. Bahkan, tulang-tulang seolah tidak mampu lagi menopang berat badannya. Sementara itu, ia harus segera kembali ke kamar tidur lalu berpura-pura seakan ini semua tidak terjadi. Terlalu lama berada di luar kamar akan semakin meningkatkan resiko Arka mengetahui keberadaannya malam ini. Semua dilakukan hanya demi menimang seorang bayi mungil dari  Cersey, sang wanita penyedia rahim untuk disewakan. Mampukah seorang istri seperti Dyandra melewati badai pengkhianatan seperti ini? Benarkah seorang bayi bisa merekatkan semuanya? Atau, justru menghancurkan segalanya? Kadang Dyandra berpikir .... "Apakah seorang wanita yang tidak sempurna seperti aku berhak untuk bahagia?"

I looked around suddenly perceiving something so alluring like pinewood mixed with Raspberry and I could tell my mate was close. A figure suddenly walked into the woods and towards me and I gasped in fear as his eyes bore into mine. "Mate" he said. My excitement kicked started knowing that I finally had a mate who had come to save me but the happiness was short lived when he said to me. "You are such a weakling" Fear instantly gripped me as I didn't want him to reject me. "please don't reject me, I beg of you." I pleased softly. "what is your name??" he asked "T...T...Tyla." "I, Alpha Thane of the Tiger wood blood pack, reject you Tyla as my mate and Luna." he spat. I felt an intense sting of pain coarse through me as I gazed intensely into his eyes. "I, Tyler Niver, accept your Rejection." "Who do you think you are to accept my rejection??!!!" he yelled as I flinched. "Nobody." "Just you wait and see how I make your life a living hell...from a nobody, you will be totally forgotten."

Although she hadn't shifted yet, that didn't stop her from dreaming big but her dreams came crashing before her eyes when her mate rejected her as his Luna. what she didn't know was that accepting his rejection only opened a dangerous pathway for her into the life of the ruthless and arrogant Alpha Thane and he has vowed to make her life miserable. will her later reverse his rejection and fall for his weak mate or will his Ruthlessness push them further apart from each other.

I stepped closer. Close enough to smell his cologne—cedarwood, leather, and power. My hand moved. Smooth, practiced. The pistol slide from under the apron into my palm. I raised it fast. But before I could pull the trigger— BANG. Not my shot. A scream tore through the restaurant as another man launched himself toward Romano’s table, blade flashing. Another assassin. What the hell— Romano didn’t flinch. He shoved the table forward, knocking the attacker off balance. The blade scraped across wood, not skin. I ducked instinctively as the room erupted into chaos. Gunfire cracked. Glass exploded. People screamed and dove for cover. “Get him out—NOW!” one of the guards barked. I aimed for the second attacker. Didn’t even hesitate. One shot—head. Gone. The guard saw me. Confusion flashed in his eyes. Then rage. I ran. I weaved between overturned chairs, plates, and screaming bodies. The smell of blood was real now, thick in the air. One of the guards grabbed me. I slammed my elbow into his ribs, twisted, and brought the butt of my gun down on his skull. He dropped like a sack of bricks. Out. I had to get out. My boots pounded the floor as I tore through the narrow hallway. But then— “Elisa.” His voice stopped me cold. I turned. Antonio Romano stood in the middle of the carnage, suit untouched, blood spattered behind him like art. His eyes were on me. And he was smiling. It was darker. Slower. Like a hunter seeing something worth chasing. Somehow, he knew who I was. “Interesting,” he said softly, tilting his head. “They sent you.” I didn’t answer. I ran. But that voice followed me. He knew my name. And he let me go. This wasn’t over. It had just begun.

I was born to shine. But the fate had others plans for me. The moment my feet left the edge, the world fell silent. There was only wind. And peace. For one fragile heartbeat, I was free. Like a bird. Then something slammed into me from behind. Arms. Hard. Unforgiving. The impact hurled me sideways instead of down. Wood splintered. Something inside me cracked. Darkness rushed in and I welcomed it. … “Open. Your. Eyes.” The voice was quiet, slow, deliberate. It forced its way through bone and blood. An Alpha command. Pain detonated through me as air tore back into my lungs. My body convulsed against my will. I tried to sink back into the quiet—to finish what I had started. “You were NEVER given permission to die.” Power wrapped around the words like chains. My eyes snapped open. We were beyond the pack’s borders. The air felt colder. Wilder. Untouched by law or duty. For one second, I had belonged to nothing. And he had dragged me back. He loomed above me, fury carved into every sharp angle of his face. His breathing was controlled, his posture dominant - absolute. If anyone were watching from the cliffs, they would see an Alpha asserting ownership. His jaw tightened, irritated at being forced to deal with something that should have already been resolved. I had complicated his plans. “Drink.” His wrist pressed my mouth. The metallic scent hit first. I tried to clamp my lips shut. But Alpha commands do not ask. They take. My mouth opened against my will and his blood burned down my throat, spreading heat through my chest. A cruel gift. He would not even grant me the mercy of dying on my own terms. And I understood - even my death did not belong to me.

RISE ABOVE THE ZODIACS SERIES | Dos - PISCES Free Phillian Zodiac is a frustrated painter and a full-time fisherman. Mula gabi hanggang madaling araw ay nasa gitna ito ng karagatan kasama ang mga tauhan para mangisda, at sa umaga naman ay tulog at nagtatago sa araw. In the afternoon, when the sky is red, he would go out of his room and sit on his veranda overlooking the mountains and the sea, and from there, he would start painting. He paints everything his eyes could see, and not a lot of people know this. Isang hapon, habang nasa veranda siya ng kaniyang silid at ipinipinta ang karagatan ay may nakita siyang palutang-lutang na kahoy sa dalampasigan. Using his binoculars, he learns that it isn't just a piece of wood but a raft with a person on it. An unconscious--probably almost dead person who might need some help. Naisip niyang baka isa iyon sa mga mangingisdang nagkaroon ng aksidente sa gitna ng karagatan. At dahil siya ang nakakita ay responsibilidad niyang tulungan ang taong iyon, lalo at nasa bahagi ito ng beach na pag-aari na ng pamilya niya. Nang marating niya ang baybayin ay saka niya napagtantong hindi mangingisda ang naroon, but a woman wearing a bridal gown. Nakadapa ito at nanginginig sa lamig. He saved her and brought her to his place. His female assistant nursed her, and when she woke up the next morning, she claimed to have no memory of the night before. Naisip niya na maaaring nagka-trauma ito kaya nalimot ang nangyari, pero anong gulat niya nang magkaharap sila sa unang pagkakataon ay bigla siya nitong pinagmumumura at binato ng kung anu-anong madampot nito. Odd, but she knows him, and she is furious at him. Bakit daw hindi siya sumipot sa kasal nila? Like, what the f*ck?
