Rhodes Island Arknights

Harold missed our fifth anniversary. He said Rogues had attacked the border, and as the Alpha, he had to fight to protect the pack. However, the she-wolf who came to fetch him was dressed in a tight little dress and heels—she looked more ready for a date than a battle. Worried for Harold, I went to the Moon Goddess's altar to pray for his safety, like I always do whenever he's called to fight. However, on the way, a witch told me there was no war at the border at all. He lied to me. At that moment, I knew it was time to walk away. "I want to break my mate bond with Harold," I said. She turned the pages of an old, dusty spellbook. "Harold won't accept this. He was even willing to give up his claim to the Alpha title just to be with you." "I don't need his permission," I said. "I'm willing to pay any price." She sighed. "If your heart is truly set on leaving, I can brew a potion for you. One sip, and your scent will vanish from the pack's memory—as if you never existed. "However, think carefully. You'll lose your title as Luna, leave behind your home, your people. You'll start over somewhere new, where no one knows your name. Not even the Moon Goddess will be able to find you." I said, "I've made up my mind, I refuse to stay in a love built on lies. "How soon can I have the potion?" "Three days." Three days. Just enough time to say goodbye to everything I once called home.

Di hari pernikahan, tunanganku malah kabur dan menikahi adikku. Di tengah rasa malu di depan semua orang, tiba-tiba William berlutut di hadapanku, meminta aku menikah dengannya. Di kota ini, tak ada yang tidak mengenal William, bujangan emas yang terkenal, idaman semua wanita lajang. Namun, justru dia yang memakaikan cincin di jariku dan menyatakan cinta, “Aku selalu mencintaimu diam-diam. Terima kasih pada takdir karena memberiku kesempatan untuk menghabiskan sisa hidupku bersamamu.” Kami pun menikah. Dia selalu memperlakukanku dengan sangat baik dan semua orang tahu bahwa William tidak akan mencintai siapapun selain aku. Hingga di tahun ketujuh pernikahan kami, aku tak sengaja masuk ke studio lukisnya. Di sana, ada ribuan lukisan Ivy, adikku. Setiap lukisan itu bagaikan pernyataan cinta yang lembut darinya untuk Ivy. Pria yang kucintai itu bahkan pernah berdoa dengan sungguh-sungguh: asal Ivy bisa bahagia, aku rela mengorbankan segalanya, termasuk nyawaku. Ternyata cinta selama tujuh tahun hanya sebuah kebohongan. Sejak awal, yang dia cintai hanyalah Ivy. Kalau begitu, biar akulah yang mundur. Tiga hari kemudian, aku pun pergi. Aku hanya mendoakan William dan Ivy hidup bahagia hingga tua nanti.

Ça faisait sept ans que j'étais avec André Gaudreau, mon fiancé, chirurgien. On avait organisé 66 mariages, mais à chaque fois, il avait tout annulé à cause de Célia Allard. La première fois, Célia avait fait une erreur de dosage à un patient. Il m'avait dit d'attendre son retour. Je l'avais attendu toute la journée. La deuxième fois, Célia était tombée dans sa douche. On était sur le point d'échanger les alliances, mais il était parti sans hésiter, me laissant face aux rires des invités. On avait enchaîné 65 cérémonies. À chaque fois, Célia trouvait une excuse pour le faire partir. La 65e fois ? Son chien était soi-disant mourant, et elle menaçait de se suicider. Ma mère avait failli faire une crise cardiaque de rage. Mais rien n'avait retenu André... Après, il était venu s'excuser à genoux. Il disait qu'il avait juste pitié pour Célia, parce qu'elle était orpheline. Que moi, j'étais la seule qu'il aimait vraiment. Je lui avais donné une dernière chance. Il m'avait encore déçue. J'ai définitivement tiré un trait et ai quitté André pour rejoindre une ONG médicale. « Désormais, inutile qu'on se revoie », me suis-je dit.

Ezra’s never been wanted. An omega with no pack, no rank, and a mouth that gets him in trouble, he’s spent most of his life just trying to stay invisible. In a world where alphas rule and omegas are expected to kneel, Ezra has learned one thing: keep your head down, and maybe you’ll survive. Then Kael chose him. Kael—powerful, cursed, and heir to a crumbling legacy—was supposed to pick the perfect mate. Someone noble. Obedient. Safe. But under the moonlight, in front of the entire shifter council, he broke every law and claimed Ezra—the outcast nobody. Now Ezra’s caught in a bond he never asked for, tethered to an alpha who’s barely holding back the monster inside him. Their connection is dangerous. Their enemies are gathering. And as Ezra starts to feel something real for Kael… He can’t help but wonder: What if the wolf who chose him is the one who will destroy him?

Elaina was saved by Silas Desmond ang kanyang bilyonaryong Padrino na sampong taon niyang hindi nakita. Dahil sa hindi siya nasanay sa kahirapan at sa takot na balikan siya ng mga taong pumatay sa kanyang mga magulang ay nakiusap siyang sumama kay Silas at pumailalim sa proteksyon nito kapalit ang mga dokumento na naglalaman ng lahat ng kanyang mamanahin mula sa kanyang mga namayapang magulang. Ngunit hindi sapat ang mga iyon para sa isang Silas Desmond sapagkat ninanais din nitong angkinin siya.

Some fairy tales have happy endings, some have tragic ones, but there are also some fairy tales that never really end. Let's say, the story of a crown prince who was never crowned, a younger brother who pursued pseudo revenge, a lotus princess who never became a lotus flower, or the story of siblings who were banished without breadcrumbs. For a long time hanging around without any certainty, the tales accidentally unite to achieve the same goal. Being in the same side. Fight against the same enemy. Seize the happy ending, because the darkness doesn't deserve it.

Beberapa dongeng mempunyai akhir bahagia, beberapa lagi memiliki akhir yang tragis, tapi ada juga beberapa dongeng yang tidak pernah benar-benar tamat. Sebut saja kisah seorang putra mahkota yang tidak pernah dinobatkan menjadi raja, seorang adik yang mengejar balas dendam semu, seorang putri teratai yang tidak pernah menjadi bunga teratai, atau kisah kakak beradik yang dibuang tanpa remah roti. Sekian lama luntang-lantung tanpa ada kepastian, dongeng-dongeng tersebut tanpa sengaja bersatu demi mencapai tujuan yang sama. Berada dalam satu kubu yang sama. Serta berjuang melawan musuh yang sama. Rebutlah akhir bahagia itu, karena kegelapan tidak pantas mendapatkannya.
