Demi satu miliar, aku berpura-pura menjadi adik perempuanku, Lidya Kumala dan merawat tunangannya yang buta selama dua tahun. Setelah Jimmy Sutojo bisa melihat kembali, aku pun disingkirkan ke luar negeri. Dua tahun kemudian, aku bertemu Jimmy lagi secara kebetulan. Seorang wartawan bertanya padanya, “Setelah kamu tidak bisa melihat, Nona Lidya yang telah merawatmu selama dua tahun, apakah kamu akan menikahinya?” Tatapan Jimmy yang jernih menyapu ke seluruh ruangan. Dengan lembut tatapannya melayang ke arahku, lalu dengan tegas, dia berkata, “Tentu saja.” ...

After my 99th failed confession of love to Jim, my parents grounded me for two weeks. "You've embarrassed yourself enough over that illegitimate son from the Larson family," they snapped. "Has he ever even spared you a proper glance?" "Stay home and reflect. We've already arranged your marriage to the Shaw family. The wedding will be in two weeks." However, I didn’t give up. I was so determined to see Jim, no matter what. Only to walk in on him locked in a deep kiss with his precious first love in a private room. "Jim, you really know how to play," one of his friends laughed. "If the Cunningham family's heiress catches you like this, she'll probably lose her mind again." "Seriously, you've turned Ella down so many times, and now that she's grounded, you haven't even sent her a message. Aren't you afraid she'll finally give up on you?" Jim just scoffed with disdain and said calmly, "What's there to be afraid of? Everyone in the capital knows Ella is obsessed with me. Who else would want her but me?" "If I hadn't needed her to get back into the Larson family, I never would've postponed my engagement to Rowena in the first place."

“A passion so intense it burns my lips whenever I whisper his name. He is the first person l think of when l wake up and the last person I think of before l return to bed. It’s at moments like these l truly begin to forget what life felt like when he wasn’t there”. Leigh lives a boring and steady life of routine. She is not happy but feels content. After witnessing the death of her mother during a home invasion, a peaceful life is all she can dream of. And her boyfriend Dylan provides all the comfort and peace she may need. So she thinks. But things take a turn after Dylan drops her like a dead fish. Leigh is devastated but her devastation takes a whole new meaning after she finds out she’s been arranged to marry a man she’s never met before. Under an agreement made by her late grandfather in a contract. And when she finds out the man she is to marry is Felix Gray the CEO of a multi-millionaire company, Leigh is certain her future life is going to be far from peaceful. But maybe a little less peace in exchange for love isn’t too much of a price to pay.

My loud, harsh breaths reverberated in the four walls of his cabin. I didn't realize when he locked me up here and pushed me too far from the door, blocking all my ways of escape. "M-Mr. S-Scott, please, what are you doing?" Cold shivers ran down my spine as I watched the man with horror-filled eyes who was advancing towards me with slow, dangerous steps. A sickening smile marred his lips as he silently relished my helplessness while uncuffing his sleeves. My fear skyrocketed. His husky chuckles ensued, churning my stomach as his shameless gaze lingered on my chest, making me quickly bring my arms to the front. "Something that I should have done before, Cupcake." He drawled out, leaving me shocked to the bone. That endearment. Travis? Dive into the dark and dangerous world of Travis Scott, a man who dupes people with his breathtaking charms and kind personality while confining his demons only to unleash them once he captures the angel he's been looking for years.

This marks the third year since Alan Cohen and I became mates, and today's finally the day of the Luna ceremony. As the ceremony begins, Alan takes my hand. But then he hesitates, refusing to move forward. I'm still trying to make sense of it when my adoptive sister, Eden Parker, suddenly breaks into the mind-link. She says she's just ended a failed mate bond with another Alpha and will be back within the hour. That's when I see a flicker of a smile on Alan's face. Then, without a second glance, he lets go of my hand and walks away. I turn to my adoptive brother, Dexter Parker, and my adoptive father, Hank Parker, hoping for some kind of comfort, only to realize they've already left the ceremony with Alan. And just like that, I became the joke of the entire pack. Eden sends me a photo. She's glowing beside Alan, her arm looped through Dexter's, with Hank beaming next to them. That's when I give up. I reach out through the mind-link to my birth father. "Dad, I'm ready to return to the Bloodmoon Pack."

Living with my aunt and her family was meant to be a temporary, quiet arrangement just helping out and keeping to myself. On the first day of the new year, while everyone else was out celebrating, I stayed home, enjoying the rare silence and catching up on sleep. But when we ran out of water, I reluctantly stepped outside to fetch some, and that’s when I saw him. He stood by the gate of the house next door, effortlessly commanding attention with just a glance. A smirk played on his lips, and a flicker of amusement danced in his eyes behind his blue-ray glasses. At that moment, he was impossible to ignore. Meanwhile, I felt disheveled and barely awake, my hair was a mess and still shaking off sleep. But he didn’t seem to mind. There was something about him an air of mystery that made me wonder who he was and why he was there. Before I could look away, he spoke, “Hi.” Caught off guard, I managed a quick, “Hi,” while trying to pull myself together. “Can I know your name?” he asked. I hesitated but replied, “I’m Clara,” and kept walking. “Can I have your number?” he called after me. “Just as friends.” I almost refused but reluctantly agreed, entering my number into his phone. “There,” I said, handing it back. “I’ll call you,” he promised with a smile, as I turned to leave. What began as a chance encounter soon became an inexplicable connection. He had secrets, but there was something about him that saw through me, understanding things no one else did. The man I met next door wasn’t just a fleeting stranger,he became the reason I started questioning everything I thought I wanted.

Ten years ago, a single mistake bound two strangers together for life. He was a powerful heir who lost the woman he never saw clearly. She was a cleaner who walked away with his money—and his child. Now, fate brings him to a quiet village as a celebrated foreign investor. He doesn’t recognize her. But he recognizes her daughter. When a little girl calls him “Daddy Stranger,” buried truths begin to surface—along with a necklace he has guarded for ten years. Will love survive secrets, fear, and the child standing between them? Or will fate demand its price?

      Aku tidak pernah menyangka akan berada di titik ini. Menikah dan menjalani rumah tangga tanpa adanya rasa cinta di dalamnya. Pernikahan yang kujalani karena dijodohkan oleh wanita yang katanya melahirkanku. Wanita yang selalu memperlakukanku layaknya robot dan dia yang memegang kendalinya.  Seperti aku yang masih berusaha melepas rasa untuk seseorang yang sekarang entah dimana,  begitu juga dengan Mas Zayn, suamiku, yang tak pernah kurasakan kehangatan cintanya. Awalnya kukira, aku tidak merasakan cinta itu karena hatiku yang masih dibelenggu masa lalu. Namun, ternyata aku salah. Aku tidak merasakan cinta itu bukan karena diriku, melainkan karena memang dia tidak mencintaiku.  Malam itu aku mendapati Mas Zayn  menangis sambil memandangi sebuah foto yang aku tak tau itu siapa. Hingga aku bertekad mencari tahu segalanya. Satu persatu kenyataan mulai terungkap, dan aku sempat menyalahkan diri sendiri. Ada keinginan untuk menyerah, tetapi …apa dayaku? Aku tak bisa mengambil keputusan besar itu, jika dia si Pemegang Remot tak memberi izin untuk robotnya ini. Rasa panas menjalar di pipiku ketika lima jari mendarat indah di sana. Gesekannya meninggalkan bekas merah, sama persis dengan apa yang dulu kurasakan setiap kali menyebutkan keinginanku. “Jangan bikin malu keluarga!” Teriaknya kala itu. “Kamu kira menjadi janda itu menyenangkan? Kalau kamu cerai sama Zayn, siapa yang bakal membiayai kehidupan kita, ha? Siapa yang akan membiayai kuliah dan sekolah adik-adikmu?” Tatapannya nyalang, mengunci pergerakanku. Dadanya naik turun bersamaan dengan mengetatnya rahang membuat nyaliku ciut seketika. Dia, wanita yang kupanggil Ibu itu tak pernah berubah, dan aku tahu seperti apapun aku berusaha baginya aku tak seberharga itu. Aku tak akan diberi celah sedikit pun. Lalu aku harus apa? Bertahan membuatku semakin terluka. Tuhan … sebegitu buruknya kah aku, sampai aku tak pernah layak dicintai? Aku hanya ingin bahagia, meski tak ada yang menaruh cintanya untukku. Apa itu mungkin?
