Rag Doll Meaning

(buku sedang di rombak) Setelah menyelesaikan kuliahnya, Kanala Ayudia Kirana (22) diminta oleh keluarganya untuk pulang ke kampung halaman dan tidak perlu bersusah payah mencari pekerjaan di ibu kota. Namun, Nala menolak dengan alasan tidak ingin menyia-nyiakan gelar di belakang namanya. Ia bersikeras ingin mencari pengalaman kerja selama satu tahun terlebih dahulu sebelum benar-benar menetap di kampung. Keluarganya akhirnya menyetujui, dengan satu syarat: Nala hanya boleh bekerja selama satu tahun, tidak lebih. Sayangnya, baru tiga bulan bekerja di salah satu perusahaan ternama, Nala menyerah. Tekanan pekerjaan yang tinggi dan lingkungan kantor yang tidak sesuai dengan ekspektasinya membuatnya kehilangan semangat. Ia pun memutuskan untuk mengundurkan diri dan berdiam diri di kosan, tanpa keberanian untuk memberi tahu keluarganya. Raras—ibu Nala—yang kemudian mengetahui anak bungsunya sudah tidak bekerja lagi, segera mendesaknya untuk pulang. Sebelum Nala sempat menolak, Raras lebih dulu mengancam tidak akan lagi mengirimkan uang bulanan. Terpojok dan kehabisan pilihan, Nala akhirnya menyerah. Ia berkemas dan pulang ke kampung halamannya. Namun siapa sangka? Di antara hamparan sawah dan hari-hari yang membosankan di warung milik ayahnya, hadir Hanggara Wiratama (31), juragan tanah sekaligus pemilik peternakan ayam terbesar di desa tetangga, selain itu ia juga menjalankan usaha jual-beli beras yang ia bangun dari nol, tak lupa dengan usahanya di kota yang tidak banyak diketahui orang. Sosoknya yang tenang dan apa adanya membuat Nala belajar bahwa pulang bukan berarti kalah, melainkan menemukan tempat untuk tumbuh. Bersamanya, Nala menyadari bahwa tidak semua mimpi harus dikejar jauh ke kota, sebagian justru menunggu untuk ditemukan di rumah.

Kaylani is the last water dragon, or she was until a scientist began making hybrids out of dragon DNA. She has been unable to have her own children, even when she mated with the earth dragon, Avani. He is now mated, so having a dragon baby is no longer an option. Instead of her own child, Kaylani adopted Naida, a hybrid created in a laboratory by the mad scientist, Oliver, using her DNA. Everett is a human who has become a doctor to the dragons. He switched his focus from humans to dragons, shifters, and eventually hybrid and elf anatomy. He has worked to find ways to save the hybrids, whether from explosives in their brains, from shifting into deformed creatures in a hybridization gone wrong or correcting the DNA of the ones whose injected DNA is incompatible and will kill the hybrid when they shift for the first time. Kaylani recognized Everett as her mate the first time she saw him. Unlike the other elemental dragons, she has no intention of fighting the mate bond and would love nothing more than for Everett to claim her. Everett, however, doesn't feel worthy of the gorgeous water dragon who looks like a goddess. However, her intelligence and her kindness continue to draw him to her, nearly as much as the mate bond pulls her to him. They work well together and have opened a school for the laboratory created dragons and hybrids, as well as other pure shifters, to help them understand themselves better and ensure that they have a positive future. Can Kaylani convince Everett to claim her, taking her as his mate, or are they destined to work side by side, never knowing the true love that comes from the dragon bond?
