Ranjang Kayu Minimalis Modern

Siron, a naive and humorous 20-year-old, lived with an ancestral curse he had never believed in. Thousands of years ago, Morat, a male shifter betrayed and murdered by the kingdom, cursed the entire line of the royal family’s men. Now, in the modern era, Siron was the last heir to that curse. His parents constantly pushed him to attend the temple for protective rituals, but Siron always evaded them, dismissing the curse as just an old story. But everything changed when Morat began to manifest, first as a faint shadow, then as a horrifying figure haunting Siron’s apartment. When Siron accidentally performed an ancient blood ritual that appeared in his dreams, Morat’s form transformed into a handsome man… but only temporarily. Terror, sensuality, and manipulation slowly began to engulf Siron’s life. Amidst a mix of fear and pleasure, Siron started to become addicted to Morat’s presence, even as he tried to find a way to break the curse that entangled his life.

In the heart of a modern metropolis lies Elysium, an exclusive BDSM club where the wealthy and powerful shed their masks and surrender to forbidden desires. By night, behind velvet curtains and gilded cages, Dominants and submissives dance in a dangerous symphony of pleasure and pain. Shadows of Desire follows a cast of lost souls drawn into Elysium’s seductive orbit: a newcomer aching to submit, a jaded Master with a dark past, a cunning Dominatrix guarding her secrets, a switch torn between roles, and a voyeur hungry for more than just watching.

In this world of consensual extremes, where ecstasy and agony blur, one hidden traitor threatens to destroy the sanctuary that binds them all. Secrets, obsessions, and power collide in a fast-paced, darkly seductive romance. Will love and loyalty survive when the truth comes to light, or will the betrayal lurking in the shadows shatter the fragile trust that holds Elysium together?

"What did they say?" He asked, almost too calm and very curious. "An animal fled with her." "They are lying! I want them in prison, till they tell me what happened to my daughter!!" He bellowed, clenching his fist while sitting on his blue, gold railed chair, beside his bed. "They are telling the truth." Seansha tried to reason. "No! They helped her hide away. They hid her, they know exactly where she is. And they will be tortured until they tell me the truth!" He barked furiously. • Ruby William is a modern teenage girl with a good family, good friends and a moderately perfect life. Until the night she turns eighteen, and gets stuck in a dream.

"Teori tanpa praktik itu lumpuh. Praktik tanpa teori itu buta. Kita? Kita adalah bencana yang sempurna." Bagi Riana, jatuh cinta lagi adalah hal mustahil. Apalagi pada Galih—bocah ingusan penghuni kamar 101 yang lebih sering menatap layar laptop daripada menatap mata wanita. Riana hanya berniat menggodanya, sedikit bersenang-senang untuk melupakan vonis "wanita gagal" yang ditempelkan masyarakat padanya. Tapi Galih punya kejutan. Di balik sikap canggung dan kacamata kudetnya, tersimpan jiwa tua yang mengerti cara memuliakan wanita lebih baik daripada pria dewasa manapun. Galih tidak menawarkan janji manis; ia menawarkan "praktik" yang membuat lutut Riana lemas dan hatinya kembali hidup. Namun, dunia tidak ramah pada kisah cinta Ibu Kos dan Anak Kos. Stigma sosial, gunjingan tetangga, dan intervensi keluarga siap merobek ikatan rapuh mereka. Saat Riana didesak untuk melepaskan Galih demi "kebaikan bersama", ia dihadapkan pada dilema terbesar: kembali pada logika dewasa yang aman namun menyiksa, atau mempertaruhkan segalanya demi pria muda yang menjadikannya ratu di atas ranjang butut kamar kos. Kadang, pahlawanmu tidak datang menunggang kuda putih. Kadang, dia hanya memakai kaos oblong, membawa flashdisk, dan siap melawan dunia untukmu.

Sholat aja tidak pernah sanggup dari mana? "Kamu gila, Mas!" Jengah dengan kegilaan Dani, Reni segera beranjak dari duduknya dan berlalu dari hadapan Dani. "Ren! Ren!" Dani segera menyusul Reni yang berjalan ke arah kamar. "Ren!" Dani menarik tangan Reni, namun segera ditepis oleh wanita itu. "Lepaskan, Mas!" Hatinya hancur, benar-benar hancur. Dia pikir suaminya telah kembali seperti dulu, namun ternyata dia salah. Malah sebuah permintaan gila yang dimintanya pada Reni. Tak menyerah, Dani terus mengekor Reni hingga ke kamar. Seketika Reni muak hanya dengan melihat wajah Dani. "Ren, dengarkan Mas dulu ...." Kali ini Dani telah berlutut di hadapan Reni. Wanita itu duduk di tepi ranjang dengan mata yang mulai sembab. "Mau ngomong apalagi, Mas?" Tangis tak lagi dapat ditahannya. Buliran bening itu akhirnya luruh juga. Ternyata dia tak sekuat yang dibayangkannya.
