Ritual Dukun

Kirana, penari Bedhaya terakhir Keraton, dipaksa meninggalkan gemerlap budaya Jawa demi kontrak pernikahan dengan Baskara, CEO dingin di Jakarta. Perjanjian mereka bukan hanya tentang harta, melainkan tentang kutukan spiritual kuno yang mengancam kehancuran kedua keluarga jika mereka gagal menemukan 'kunci' cinta sejati dalam lima tahun. Ketika sabotase bisnis dan serangan spiritual mengancam karier menari Kirana, Baskara dipaksa meyakini mitos yang selama ini ia remehkan. Rahasia gelap terkuak: Kutukan itu terkait erat dengan saudara kembar Baskara yang hilang, seorang antagonis yang kini memegang Jimat Cakra, artefak kekuatan jahat. Demi menyelamatkan warisan dan satu sama lain, Kirana dan Baskara harus bersatu, menukar kemewahan metropolitan dengan misteri candi tersembunyi. Di sana, Kirana harus menarikan tarian paling suci dalam hidupnya, sebuah ritual yang akan mengangkat kutukan, tetapi mungkin akan memaksanya mengorbankan jiwa penarinya selamanya. Bisakah cinta yang lahir dari kontrak mengalahkan takdir leluhur?

Soraya Wane knew her place. Low rank, no lineage, no illusions. When the bond appeared at the Luna's Calling, she let herself believe — briefly — that Luna had seen something in her worth choosing. Lucien didn't agree. Rejected before the entire pack and nearly killed by the ritual meant to sever what couldn't be severed, Soraya runs. She doesn't expect to survive. She certainly doesn't expect Gabriel. The rival Alpha doesn't offer her rescue. He offers her something she stopped believing in — a future. A home. A bond that grows into something real. Then Lucien comes back. He returns to a bond that never broke, a woman he doesn't recognize, and discovers he has a child he never knew existed. Now two Alphas stand on opposite sides of something ancient — a sacred charge from Luna herself that cannot be ignored and cannot be divided. War is coming. The only question is whether Lucien is the enemy... or the missing piece. Some bonds can't be broken. Some destinies can't be shared. Soraya may not get a choice in either.

For a thousand years, Roman, the Alpha, has waited to destroy the wolf tribe that betrayed him — the same tribe that murdered his mate, stole his future, and condemned him to exile. His revenge requires patience, and above all, the rebirth of the Arion. For his revenge to happen exactly the way he wants he has to wait for his perfect weapon, her. But when his most sought after moment came, fate played a cruel trick instead. On the night of the Blood Moon ritual, fate turns against him. Instead of binding Marcelene to her tribe, the magic ties her to him—heart to heart, soul to soul. Dragged into the shadows, Marcelene swears to hate him. Yet every heartbeat betrays her, pulling her closer to the very Alpha who wants to use her for revenge she knows nothing about. But Marcelene is more than a weapon. She is the reincarnation of his lost mate — the only one who once loved him and who he still loves. Bound by blood and vengeance, high emotions, and destiny itself, they must decide: destroy each other, or defy fate together.

In my fourth year as a substitute bride for my runaway sister, married to King Alpha Kieran Ashworth, I became pregnant with his child. When I sought the High Priestess at the sacred temple to perform the "Protective Blessing Ritual" for our unborn pup, I was devastated to learn: "You and Alpha Kieran have never established a true mate bond. I cannot perform the blessing ritual." The soul truly connected to him was my half-sister, Isabella Morgrave. Isabella suddenly returned, claiming to suffer from "Luna's Eclipse",a werewolf affliction spoken of in whispered terror, with only three full moons remaining. To fulfill Isabella's dying wish, Kieran held a mating ceremony with her. At Isabella's birthday banquet, a blood curse appeared, and everyone believed it was cast by my jealousy. They imprisoned me in an obsidian cage that absorbed moonlight energy and purified me with "demon-breaking blood," causing me to miscarry and lose our child. When I discovered Isabella's illness was fabricated and all the framing was her elaborate scheme, I decided to leave. However, when the truth came to light, Kieran went completely mad...

In my previous life, on the day my sister and I attended the Witch Covenant's mating ceremony, I saved a fallen vampire prince. To repay my debt, the prince, upon returning to his clan, immediately declared that I would be his future bride. A year later, I gave birth to a pureblood heir—the only successor of the entire vampire lineage. The prince was overjoyed. On the day of his coronation as King, he sealed a blood bond with me, declaring me his eternal companion and queen. From that moment, I was revered by all races. My sister, meanwhile, chose a powerful werewolf Alpha, only to fade into obscurity as one among his many lovers. Her jealousy of me spiraled into madness. During a full-moon ritual held by the witches, she pushed me into an abyss, leaving me to die from the fall. When I opened my eyes again, I saw her running toward the direction of the vampire prince's misfortune on the very day of the mating ceremony. I knew then: she, too, had been reborn. But what she didn't realize was this—becoming the prince's bride was easy. Winning his heart, bearing his child, now that was as impossible as climbing to the heavens.
