Novel & Cerita Purple Hearts Game

A flicker of hope lit up in her eyes. I pulled her into my arms. Our bodies pressed together, my chest against her softness, close enough to feel her warmth. Leaning close to her ear, I whispered, "Because I love you." Her whole body trembled, nearly giving out beneath her. I caught her just in time, steadying her. At that exact moment, the program's voice rang out. [Affection: 100%.] [Congratulations. Mission complete. Reward issued: $100 million.] The instant it confirmed completion, I shoved her away.

Two years ago, Purple Hearts—the sole heiress to Hearts of Jewels, one of the world’s most lucrative luxury conglomerates—walked down the aisle to marry Alex Hawthorne, a man whose reputation preceded him like a storm cloud. Cold-hearted, reckless, and a notorious playboy spoiled by generational wealth, he was everything her family warned her against. But Purple saw none of it.

Covering her mouth, she gasps in response, shaking her head side by side. Just then, Koishi's eyes fall upon the tiny hearts over the corner of the hologram. Out of the 10 hearts, two and a half were coloured bright red while others were grey. 'Wait, so does that mean the numbers which were decreasing were the likeability of Koishi? That is me. Wow, as far as I could remember, it was easier to win the heart of Koishi than others characters in the game. At the same time even easy to get a good ending with him'

I step closer, and just like Selena, Zara backs away. She looks around and shifts her weight from one leg to the other. "How about we play a game? Onyx thinks that would be fun." A corner of my lip twitches, but I don't let it break into a smile. "I'll play the game if you want me to," Zara places a hand on my chest and slowly slides it down. Before she can get any lower, I grab her wrist. "You misunderstood me. The game I want to play is called the heart. Do you know the rules?" I press against her body as a loud moan leaves Zara's lips.

She stood there with her eyes slightly lowered, looking lost in thought and not moving. The old me would probably have been on edge, my fingers trembling in an unbearable mix of hope and heartbreak. I would have been suffocating from the bitter feeling of knowing the girl I cared about with all my heart was still hung up on another guy. But now, the feeling wasn't as strong. I didn't want to watch them, so I followed Samuel and his friends to the card table. A few rounds in, I had lost a decent amount of cash. Irritated, I excused myself and stepped out into the hallway for a smoke.

"I'll see you in my office later." With that, he turned and vanished, leaving Noah standing in that vacant room, the beat of her heart going wild in her chest. She breathed in deeply, trying to steady herself, but the encounter had left her shaken. The thought that she was embroiled in some kind of dangerous game, that had Noah in its midst-a game whose rules were ever-changing, whose stakes were well beyond anything she could have imagined-wouldn't leave her head. And right at the heart of this game was Damien, with his inscrutable eyes and words as sharp as whips.

thought Joanna. Leonna and Carl had seen the two having a private chat, and so they decided to play against each other. They both wanted to bet on something to make the game more interesting. “Have you noticed anything about your brother today?” asked Michael to Leonna while they are having their game. Joanna frowns, thinking ‘So this is the reason why he approached me?’. “No, why? Is there something that I should know about?” said Joanna, a bit worried. Joanna loses the game. “Did you purposely say that to distract me, so you can win?” accused Joanna, pouting her lips.

Swiftly flicking his cigarette, he forcefully turned the steering wheel in the opposite direction, causing the car to spin in circles around the girl. On the other side, Hiya, with her heart pounding, witnessed a black Mercedes approaching rapidly. Overwhelmed with fear, she clasped her hands over her ears and shut her eyes tightly, anticipating an imminent tragedy. In that moment, she believed it was her last day in this world, facing an inevitable and untimely demise.

Then stopped as if remembering something. " But if he's called off the bet, how the hell are we going to know if he really has feelings for you?" She asked. I pondered on it for a while and thats when I smirked. " Just because a player quits doesn't mean the game's over." I said and stared ahead. Ariana watched me keenly. " And what do you have in mind?" She asked menacingly. I chuckled. " Its a game right?" " Right." " Then we keep on playing...." I said and glanced at her. She grinned wildly and hugged me tightly.
