Puck Up Lines

Gabriella Whyte was a foster child who had been struggling to make ends meet for years, ever since she left the foster care system. After losing her job as a receptionist at a hotel, she makes a drastic decision to leave her small town in Arkansas and move to New York City, where she finally lands a job at the prestigious KINGSTON ENTERPRISES, one of the biggest companies in New York. Gabriella never imagined that walking through the giant mahogany double doors of the CEO’s office would eventually thrust her into a contract marriage with the obnoxious, yet strikingly handsome, young billionaire, Alexander Kingston himself. Now tasked with keeping up the ruse of the doting wife to a powerful man, lines are crossed, and the terms of their contract marriage seem rather difficult to stand by, with each day that passes. What happens next as a roller coaster ride of love, betrayal, jealousy, and exploring new feelings take them both by surprise.

Kyle Bennett has everything: the family name, the inheritance, and the perfect reputation as the university’s Student Body President. But under the shadow of his controlling father and a persistent ex-girlfriend he can’t shake, Kyle is suffocating. To keep his image intact and the pressure at bay, he needs a distraction, someone to play the part of a devoted partner. Enter Finn Parker. A focused nursing student with a sharp tongue and a practical head on his shoulders, Finn isn't interested in the elite world of the "Golden Boy." But the tuition for his degree is piling up, and when Kyle offers a transactional contract to fake a relationship for a semester, the money is too good to pass up. The rules are simple: no feelings, no personal baggage, and absolutely no honesty. But as the lines between their scripted dates and their private moments start to blur, the "Perfect Bennett" begins to crack. When the lie finally explodes in a public scandal, Kyle is forced to choose between his father’s millions and the boy who saw through his mask.

Saat sadar kembali, dia kehilangan ingatannya. Tangannya menggenggam erat tangan suamiku dan tidak mau melepaskannya. Hanya karena dokter mengatakan, “Pasien tidak boleh menerima guncangan.” Suamiku dan ibu mertua pun membujukku agar ikut dia bersandiwara. Setiap kali aku menyinggung soal itu, mereka berdua selalu menjawab, “Tunggu aja sampai kakak iparmu pulih kembali ingatannya!” Maka dari itu, aku hanya bisa memandangi suamiku sendiri tinggal dan makan bersama kakak iparnya dengan mataku sendiri.

It was the third anniversary of my registration of a mate bond with Xavier Ashford, the alpha of Shadowcrest Pack. My gift to him was a positive pregnancy test, but his gift to me was a contract terminating our bond as mates. I froze, too distraught to reach out and take it from him. Xavier cleared his throat awkwardly. "A wolf tricked Talia into getting pregnant. A pup born out of mate bond can't get the rights to live in the pack. My plan is to terminate our bond as mates and become mates with Talia for the time being so that her pup can have a legal identity. After she gives birth to her pup, then you and I can become mates again. How does that sound?" He passed me a bond termination contract. It had clearly been prepared a long time ago. He noticed my hesitation and explained gently, "You're my one true love. I'm only helping her as a friend. Even after we split up, I can guarantee that you won't be mistreated." I looked up at him with a smile and stayed silent. Then, I reached into my pocket and felt the pregnancy test under my fingers. The two red lines on the screen were as clear as day.

Trapped in a sweltering 40-degree sauna room, I overheard my older brothers talking outside. My second-oldest brother, Sean Lambert, remarked, "This kid is too stubborn. We need to teach her a lesson." My third-oldest brother, Jacob Lambert, replied, "The temperature has been adjusted. She won't die." I was locked up alone for 72 hours. It was their way of punishing me because of my stepsister. Yet, they were the ones who used to love me the most. My father was a business tycoon, my eldest brother, Axel Lambert, was skilled in finance, Sean was a legal expert, and Jacob was a medical prodigy. My mother passed away after fulfilling her mission, leaving these four men to look after me. They once showered me with love like I was their precious gem, until I turned five. That's when my stepmother and her daughter came into the picture, and I was banished to the housekeeper's room. Their attention shifted entirely to my stepsister. Whenever she cried, my father would bring out the punishment box for me to draw lots. 72 hours passed, but no one came to open the door. Before I blacked out, a few lines of small text popped up before my eyes: [The minor character is about to die. Once she dies, she can be reunited with her mother.]
