Rambut Legend

Selama hampir satu tahun pernikahan Belicia hanya pernah bertemu satu kali dengan Alexander Linardy, yaitu di malam pernikahan. Saat itu, dia tak terlalu menerima dirinya dijodohkan atas dasar perjanjian bisnis. Terlebih lagi, tahun itu Belicia baru saja lulus cumlaude sebagai sarjana desain di salah satu fakultas terkemuka di kota itu. Sewaktu mendengar dia dijodohkan dengan Alexander Linardy— sang Taipan tampan yang terkenal playboy dan gemar mengencani para model ternama, rasanya Belicia tak bisa membayangkan akan menjadi istri seorang Alex. Yang lebih buruk, pernikahan mereka hanya dilakukan oleh pertemuan keluarga Belicia dan Alex— tanpa menghadirkan kedua belah pihak mempelai. Seolah-olah dirinya hanya sebuah barang yang bisa diperjualbelikan dengan selembar nota. Saat Belicia diharuskan tinggal bersama suaminya, sejak itu Belicia memutuskan untuk berpenampilan kumuh. Dengan ide konyolnya Belicia mewarnai sebagian rambut dengan warna abu agar terlihat sudah beruban dan berpenampilan seperti nenek tua. Hasilnya, Belicia nyaris meloncat saat melihat penampilannya yang seperti nenek sihir. Dan dia ingat betul sewaktu Alex masuk, pria itu langsung lari membawa amarah saat mengetahui wanita yang dia nikahi adalah seorang nenek-nenek. Sejak saat itu Alex tak pernah kembali ke rumahnya, dan Belicia bukan satu atau dua kali mendengar rumor tentang Alexander yang kerap bergonta-ganti teman kencan. Sekarang Alex melayangkan kata perceraian, Belicia langsung menyetujuinya dan pergi ke luar negeri untuk melanjutkan pendidikan. Namun, Belicia tak menduga saat dirinya kembali di satu perusahaan baru, ternyata direktur perusahaan itu adalah Alexander Linardy. Apakah Alex mampu mengenali bahwa Belicia adalah mantan istrinya yang dulu berwujud seperti nenek sihir?

After three days of the silent treatment, my fiancé, the Capo of the Moretti family, took his assistant, Bella, on an island vacation. He expected me to be driven mad with jealousy, just as I always had been. But when he returned to Valmont a month later, he found a different woman. He made me give up my corner office. I didn't fight him. I just packed my things and handed it over. To prop Bella up, he discredited me in front of a key partner at the annual family meeting, just so she could shine. I didn't try to prove my innocence. I just accepted the family's reprimand and took my punishment. When Lucas wanted to put Bella in charge of the family's most profitable business, I didn't even get angry. I handed over all the necessary documents without a fight, letting him redistribute power as he saw fit. Bella was smug. "See? What did I tell you?" "A woman like her just needs a firm hand. One trip to the island and she's terrified of losing you. Look how obedient she is now." Lucas bought it, praising Bella for her insight. In a move he'd never made before, he promised me a wedding so grand it would become a legend in the Valmont underworld. But he seemed to have forgotten the dissolution agreement he signed, the one I slipped him right before he got into the car for their vacation. I had already severed all ties with him. I was leaving, but he had no idea.

I was seventeen when Rowan Ashcroft promised we’d disappear together. I was eighteen when my father sold me to a man who wanted to own my blood. For twelve years, I was the perfect trophy wife to the ruthless Alpha Julian Cross. To the world, I was untouchable, beautiful, obedient, and carefully medicated to keep my true nature buried. In reality, I was a locked vault, a prisoner hiding a forbidden Silver Omega lineage that the supernatural Council had spent generations trying to erase. But the haze of the pills is fading, and a secret is growing inside me. I am pregnant. And I know exactly what Julian will do when he finds out his "perfect wife" is carrying a child that shouldn't exist. So, I run. I don’t get far before the Council’s executioner finds me. Rowan Ashcroft steps out of the shadows wearing the silver marks of an Enforcer and the same cold eyes I once trusted with my life. He isn't here to save me. He’s here because my bloodline and my unborn child are worth killing for. Instead of ending my life, Rowan offers a lethal contract: Three months. A fake mating bond. Absolute protection from the Council. The bond is supposed to be a lie, a way to cloak my scent and hide me in plain sight. But as Rowan’s mark burns into my skin, it awakens something ancient and primal in my blood. I was never just an Omega meant to be owned. I am the return of a legend they thought they’d killed. Julian wants his property back. The Council wants me dead. But they are about to learn what happens when the woman they tried to erase finally becomes Untouchable.

Sebuah pesan masuk ke dalam gawaiku, tak ada firasat apapun saat itu. Dengan santai pesan itu kubuka. Sebuah foto yang dikirim oleh nomor tak dikenal. Mataku membulat sempurna, tak percaya dengan apa yang kulihat, hingga berkali-kali aku memperhatikan bahkan sampai men-zoom foto itu sedetail mungkin, takut jika mata ini salah menyimpulkan. [Maafkan saya, Bu!] tulis si pengirim foto. Aku tak menghiraukan pesannya, butir demi butir air mengalir dari sudut mata, mengaburkan penglihatan. Menandakan bahwa foto itu membuat luka didalam sana. Sebuah foto resepsi pernikahan yang berlatarkan salah satu pemandangan di Puncak, tertampang nyata, sangat indah begitu pula dengan senyum dari kedua mempelai yang terlihat sempurna dan bahagia. Mas Arya, pengantin laki-laki yang kini sedang bersanding dengan seorang wanita muda dan cantik itu adalah suamiku. Suami yang sudah sepuluh tahun ini kuhaturkan bakti kepadanya. "Ma, Mama kenapa menangis?" cepatku susut air mataku dengan ujung jari, dan mematikan ponselku agar gambar yang begitu mengiris hati itu tak sampai terlihat oleh Alisa, putriku. "Ga, sayang. Mata Mama kelilipan," ungkapku asal. Kuraih tubuh mungil Alisa dalam pelukan, gadis lima tahun ini begitu sangat berarti bagiku. "Kak Alif mana sayang?" tanyaku mengalihkan pembicaraan. "Ada, Ma lagi di kamar, muraja'ah," Aku tersenyum getir. 'Mas, kita sudah punya putra dan putri yang begitu membanggakan, aku juga meninggalkan karierku demi berbakti kepadamu, kenapa masih saja curang dibelakang ku?' bisikku dalam hati. "Ma, Ayah kapan pulang?" Alisa bersandar didadaku, tanganku terulur membelai rambut panjang nan hitam milik Alisa. "Baru juga dua hari, Ayah pergi Nak, udah rindu aja," ujarku menggoda sambil menekan emosi dihati. Dua hari yang lalu, Mas Arya pamit akan ke Kalimantan mau mengurus bisnisnya. Aku yang tak begitu mengikuti perkembangan perusahaan, percaya saja padanya. Tak mungkin rasanya, Mas Arya mengkhianatiku dia lelaki yang baik, sholeh, penyayang dan selalu romantis. Namun, apa yang terjadi benar-benar diluar bayanganku

My boyfriend, Victor Pearson, was ranked number one in the world in horror games. Meanwhile, I was secretly working part-time as a monster NPC inside one of those dungeons. Every dungeon he cleared was SSS rank, whereas the one I worked in was the beginner level. We were never supposed to run into each other… until he nearly wiped out all the monsters in an SSS dungeon. The system pulled me in at the last second as emergency backup. When I tried to scare players with my awful acting, the live chat tore me apart. [Hahaha, since when did the monsters in this dungeon get so cowardly? She’s supposed to scare us, but we actually scared her instead.] [This is next-level dumb. Getting lost in a dungeon is embarrassing. Is this monster here for comic relief?] [Poor thing. She'd better hide. Anyone else might let her go, but if she runs into Big V, she's dead before she knows it.] [Come on. Big V only hunts the nastiest bosses. He wouldn’t even bother with trash like that. She would probably scare herself to death first.] I did everything I could to avoid Victor, to keep him from realizing I was the monster working there. But somehow, I stumbled right into him anyway. The chat exploded, waiting for my instant death. After all, he was a legend on the leaderboards, a god among players. But instead of killing me, he bent down and gently pinched my cheek. "Hey, babe. How many players do you wanna take out? I'll help you." The people in the chat lost their minds. [What the hell?!]

The captain is dead to the world. And I’m the only one holding the kill switch. Ethan Carter, the "Glacier of Silvercrest," was the most feared Alpha to ever step onto the ice. Now, he’s nothing but a shell—a broken, comatose legend trapped in his own body. My life? It was supposed to be simple. Graduate, survive the pack’s bottom-tier status, and pay off my father’s ruinous blood-debts. Instead, the pack elders handed me a contract soaked in cold, hard malice: I am the designated "Stabilizer." My only job is to touch him, scent him, and keep his wolf from flatlining. I thought I was just a glorified nurse. I didn't realize the Alpha was listening. When Ethan finally wakes, he isn't the hero the Kingdom of Valeria remembers. He’s a starving predator with amber eyes that burn holes through my defenses and a temperament that makes the frost in the mansion seem warm. He hates the bargain, he hates the pack, and—most dangerously—he hates the way his scent turns wild whenever I’m near. He wants me out of his sight. I want to be out of his reach. But in a pack built on secrets, someone is still trying to finish the job they started on his life. Now, the man who wants me gone is the only one who can protect me. And as the rink turns into a battlefield, I’m realizing the most dangerous thing about the Alpha isn't his temper... it’s the fact that once he claims a mate, he doesn't know how to let go. Frozen hearts are meant to shatter. But in the fire of this pack, we’re both going to burn.

Legends of old had been passed throughout the Kingdom of Shaldan. That the great kings of the past, the Alpha of the East had lost his mind and ruined the Kingdom. The Queen, the Luna named Galatea had been murdered by her own mate. Songs about the legend had been made. "Don't go to the forest. Don't go to the east. Don't go near the forest, or you'll face the beast." The villagers knew the song by heart and they knew the reason, though the monsters were only talked about in whispers. In a lullaby. The Eastern Forest was dangerous for it had been neglected, forgotten. The forest was dark. Even the lights from the moon, the stars and thousands of fireflies were not enough to illuminate the sky. Everyone knew that. For how could they forget. A stone had been carved for the purpose of everyone's protection. Sometimes the village young boys and girls dared each other to step to the edge of the meadow, just to see, but none of them actually went beyond the protective bushes at the edge. "Phil, wait for me!" Accashia screamed. Accashia had always felt that her family neglected her. Shunned her. Sometimes her older siblings would even chase her through the meadow for fun. It was easier to catch her, which meant it was easier to beat her up and tie her to the big oak tree. The only difference is when they left her that night and came back during daybreak, Accashia was gone. "Find her! Mom's going to kill us if she finds out!” Little did they know that she was picked up by someone who's silver hair glows under the moonlight. A Survivor from the East. A young man named Calleb.
