Purple Rose Meaning

"Maaf, tapi aku tak bisa meneruskan pernikahan ini. Setelah kupikir aku masih terlalu muda dan naif. Aku mencintaimu, Anna, tapi tidak dengan menikah. Cita-citaku masih menunggu untuk kuraih." Aku hanya menatapnya dengan air penuh, tak percaya padahal besok adalah hari pernikahan kami. Semua hal sudah direncanakan secara matang, tapi malam ini dia masuk menerobos dalam kamarku dan mengatakan hal-hal yang mematahkan semua tulang-tulangku. "Pergi ..." Aku berkata dengan lirih dan mengusirnya. Aku membecinya sangat! Dia adalah laki-laki paling brengsek yang pernah kutemui. Dia mengagalkan acara pernikahan ini karena terlalu egois! Danish adalah laki-laki paling egois dan brengsek yang pernah kutemui! "Maafkan aku, Anna. Aku sangat mencintaimu!" Aku hanya menggeleng. Tak ada cinta, jika dia yang memulai dia juga yang mengakhiri semua ini. "Sungguh, maafkan aku." Aku semakin menggeleng dan ingin melempar apa saja di hadapannya. Dia yang melamarku, aku tahu kami memang masih sangat muda tapi dia menyakinkan jika kebersamaan kami tidak akan goyah walau sudah menikah nanti dan meyakinkanku berkali-kali semuanya baik-baik saja. Tapi lihatlah kini! "Aku membencimu sangat, Danish!" Dan kami dipertemukan kembali hingga lima tahun kemudian, di malam reunian sekolah yang akhirnya merusak segala move on yang telah kucapai! Reuni semalam, merusak move on sebelanga. _______________ Danish - Cerita orang tuanya di (Nanny to Mommy) Anna - Cerita orang tuanya di (I Was Never Your)

Kallan O’Cleirigh, a Lycan clan leader, travels to the united pack lands in search of his pretimarei, his precious love. But Kallan will have his work cut out for him; his mate is a strong-willed, independent she-wolf and will have to fall in love with him of her own volition whilst resisting the pull of her werewolf mate. Will Kallan be able to win the love of his pretimarei? Or will Enola succumb to the undeniable pull of the werewolf mate bond? Enola might think her life is plain and boring, but as the twentieth anniversary of The Expansion approaches, her final year of college will prove to be anything but.

‎I died on Christmas Eve. ‎Betrayed by the man I gave everything to, poisoned by my own sister, and mocked for loving too deeply, death should have been my end. Instead, it became my beginning. ‎ ‎When I wake up in a blood-soaked alley, a cold voice welcomes me to the “Demon Games" —a brutal survival arena where one hundred humans fight monstrous trials for a chance at rebirth. The prize? Ten years of life restored… and one impossible wish. ‎ ‎I am weak. Near-blind. Unwanted. ‎But someone keeps saving me. ‎He wears a mask, smells of danger, and commands fear without speaking. They call him a demon. A king. A monster. ‎And worst of all—he claims I belong to him. ‎ ‎As the games grow deadlier and the audience thirsts for blood, I uncover a terrifying truth: the man protecting me is the “Lycan King" , an overlord bound by rules that demand my death. ‎ ‎In a world where love is forbidden and survival demands sacrifice, I must choose— escape hell alone… or drag the king down with me. ‎
