Pisau Survival

Saat berusia tujuh belas tahun, seseorang menusuk rahimku dengan pisau, membuatku tidak bisa mengandung seumur hidup.

Keributan pecah di rumah sakit. Keluarga pasien mengamuk, pisau terhunus dan diayunkan membabi buta. Refleks, aku mendorong suamiku, Elvano Wiratama, agar selamat. Namun, bukannya menghindar, dia justru menarik tanganku, menjadikanku tameng hidup demi melindungi adik juniornya. Pisau itu menembus perutku. Dan seketika… bayi kecilku yang baru saja terbentuk, hilang untuk selamanya. Saat para rekan dokter histeris berusaha membawaku ke ICU, suamiku malah menarik tubuhku jatuh dari brankar. Wajahnya dingin tanpa rasa iba. “Selamatkan dulu juniorku!” bentaknya bengis. “Kalau dia sampai celaka, kalian semua…akan kupecat!” Suasana membeku. Semua mata terbelalak, kaget sekaligus marah. “Elvano, kamu sudah gila! Lihat dia… dia cuma lecet sedikit, sementara istrimu… dia sekarat!” Aku menahan darah yang terus mengalir dari perutku. Aku mengangguk pasrah. “Nggak apa-apa… lakukan saja… begitu,” ucapku lirih, nafasku berat. Elvano, setelah utang ini terbayar, aku tak lagi berutang apa pun padamu.

Pengkhianatan sudah menjadi hal seperti musik di kepalaku. Semua bentuknya sudah kuingat sepanjang hidupku. Sampai di pengkhianatan terakhir satu tusukan menembus dadaku dan yang membawa pisau itu adalah senior kerjaku sendiri yang selalu kuhormati. Kupikir ini akan berakhir, tapi aku tiba-tiba masuk ke dalam tubuh seorang NPC yang belum pernah kulihat di game yang aku desain.

Angela White had no love lost for her pack. They hated her as much as she hated them. Why? Because her father had a falling out with his former best friend, the Alpha and he chose to shun him. The entire pack took their Alpha’s side and shunned her father and her entire family, disregarding the fact that no one knew the reason for the fight. Because of this, Angela grew up hating her pack.

She would enter into the Grand Hunt and when she won, her prize would be the Alpha’s forgiveness. It was a simple enough plan. Until the Alpha’s son came into the picture. Louis Knights was arrogant, handsome, powerful and everything Angela hated. He’d also joined his father to shun her family even though he’d been in the ideal position to find out the cause of the fight and perhaps resolve it. So yes, Angela hated him. He had always avoided taking part in the Hunt. That is, until the year that Angela planned to join. His presence there would make it twice as hard for Angela to win but not impossible. However, the unexpected appearance of a rogue wolf forces Angela to let go of the tight hold she had on her wolf in order to protect herself. In that moment, her wolf reached out to her mate, and Louis

Born under the silver glow of the moon, Liora was marked with a mysterious birthmark and a destiny she could neither understand nor escape. Raised in the Beta household, her life was one of cruelty...scorned by her stepmother Mariseth and tormented by her sister Ravena, whose envy grew sharper with every passing day.
