Sandaran Sofa

Pada malam hari jadi pernikahan kami yang keenam, aku tersipu dan menghindari ciuman panas suamiku, Arga, lalu mendorongnya untuk meraih pengaman di meja samping tempat tidur. Di dalamnya, ada kejutan yang aku siapkan, alat tes kehamilan yang menunjukkan hasil positif. Aku membayangkan senyum seperti apa yang akan dia tunjukkan saat menemukannya. Namun, tepat saat dia hendak meraih laci, ponselnya berdering. Suara sahabatnya, Omar, terdengar dari gagang telepon, berbicara dalam bahasa Jerman. “Pak Arga, semalam bagaimana rasanya? Apa sofa erotis baru dari perusahaan kita nyaman?” Arga terkekeh pelan dan menjawab dalam bahasa Jerman, “Fungsi pijatnya berfungsi dengan baik, jadi aku tidak perlu memijat punggung Hanna lagi.” Dia masih memelukku erat, tapi tatapannya seolah menembusku, menatap seseorang yang lain. “Hanya kita berdua yang tahu tentang ini. Kalau istriku tahu aku tidur dengan adiknya, mampus aku.” Hatiku serasa ditusuk dengan keras. Mereka tidak tahu kalau aku mengambil mata kuliah minor Bahasa Jerman di perguruan tinggi, jadi aku mengerti setiap katanya. Aku memaksakan diri untuk tetap tenang, tetapi tanganku yang melingkari lehernya sedikit gemetar. Saat itu, aku akhirnya memutuskan untuk menerima undangan dari proyek penelitian internasional. Tiga hari kemudian, aku akan lenyap sepenuhnya dari dunia Arga.

On April Fool’s Day, my CEO husband cut out my heart to save his childhood sweetheart's son. After the surgery, he tossed me into a cold rental apartment, where I died in agony. Three days after my death, my five-year-old daughter played in the room as usual. Walking by the sofa, she wrinkled her little nose and mumbled, "Mommy, there's a weird smell in here." She touched my face and murmured, "Mommy, are you pretending to be Snow White? Why are you so pale?" She shook my arm harder and raised her voice, "Mommy, it's my birthday today—get up and blow out the candles!" Confused, she picked up the phone and called her father. “Daddy, did I make Mommy mad? I lit the candles, but no matter how much I call her, she won’t wake up.” On the other end of the call, Patrick Hart’s voice was cold and impatient. “What could possibly be wrong with her? She’s just pretending to be asleep for sympathy. It’s Johnny’s birthday, I’m busy. Don’t bother me! Tell your melodramatic mother to stop playing her little tricks. I don't have time to humor her." My daughter removed the candle from her bun, pinched off a piece of the bun, and fed it to me. "Mommy, I made a secret wish… I really wish you could hold me again, just like before."

Doni terjebak dalam cinta lokasi dengan seorang model cantik bernama Dona dalam project sebuah syuting iklan. Perkenalan yang manis berlanjut ke pertemuan-pertemuan intens dan panas yang lain membuat Delon merasa nyaman. Doni akhirnya menikahi Dona secara siri menjadi istri keduanya. *** “Angkat dulu, Sayang. Mana tahu panggilan penting,” ucap Dona. “Tidak ada yang lebih penting bagi ku saat ini selain hal ini, Sayang.” “Angkat dulu sayang. Nanti kita bisa teruskan sampai puas.” Dona bangkit dari baringnya dan duduk menghadap Doni. Doni menggeram. Dengan terpaksa dia beranjak dari sofa menuju meja tempat dia meletakkan tasnya dan mengambil ponselnya. “Jihan,” ucap Doni sambil melihat ke arah Dona. Dona mengerti maksud ucapan Doni. Dengan cepat dia mengangguk dan memakai kembali pakaiannya. “Halo sayang,” ucap Doni begitu mengangkat panggilan telepon dari istri pertamanya itu. Dona tersenyum sinis mendengar pembicaraan Doni pada Jihan. Dona berdiri dan melangkahkan kakinya ke dapur untuk mengambil air minum. Tenggorokannya tiba-tiba terasa kering. Dona menghabiskan satu gelas penuh air minum dingin. Diraihnya kursi di meja makan dan duduk sendiri disana. “Lihat saja Jihan, akan kamu rasakan kepedihan yang aku rasakan dulu. Kamu harus menerima pembalasan atas perbuatan kejammu terhadap aku sepuluh kali lipat dari yang aku rasakan dulu. Bukan, seratus kali lipat dari itu." Dona meremas gelas kosong yang ada di tangannya.

"Do not dare to act like my wife..."He grabbed her forearm and hushed dangerously into her ear. Cold shiver ran through her veins as she closed her eyes to let the forming tears cascade down her eyes. "But..I am your wife."she stuttered. "Yeah a wife who took her sister's place to dig on my money, Rain Anderson."He jerked her with such force that she stumbled and fell on the sofa behind her. She squeezed shut her eyes and let the remaining moisture release her eye sockets. She had suffered his insults and abuses for long two years for a promise which she gave to her parents and sake of the holy vows she took with him but finally her last string of patience broke. She couldn't let him play with her self respect. She wiped her tear stricken face and stood up to match his level.It was the time when she must face him to save their marriage and give him a taste of his own medicine if she wanted to get her love and self respect back. "Its Mrs. Rain Blackwood,Mr. Nicholas Blackwood now whose bitch of a sister and your fiancee ran away on the day of your marriage with her boyfriend and I had to take her place to save our families' reputation.So, better you keept it in your mind before judging my character. "She breathed out and left her husband, Nicholas Blackwood in complete shock. He stood there like a stone statue as it was the first time she rose against his tortures.

` It was a cool, breezy and stormy night. Rain came down in sheets, as a dark figure stood before a house. The house was pretty ordinary, white with blue shutters; it didn't have more than two bedrooms. It looked like a cozy little family home with flowers and shrubs lining the front lawn, and then the smell from the pellet stove smoke invaded his nostrils. He took a deep breath and pulled out an old, rusted compass from his black trench coat. It looked like it could have been from the 14th century, the small, brass disc was dented and the Victorian designs were faded. He studied it as it pointed east, towards the small house. He looked the house over carefully, looking for the best entrance, before proceeding towards the side to gaze into the window. Inside you can see the small kitchen; the brand new, all black appliances off set the linoleum floor. Cabinets filled almost every wall of the small space that made it look more crowded than it should have been. The kitchen opened to a larger room which seemed to be used as a living room and a dining room all at once. The whole house looked crowded, with the furniture in the living room all touching except for a small gap to walk through and the dining room was so close to the sofa, it could have been sitting on it. He stepped back into the shadows as he watched a young couple enter the kitchen. The wife was tall and slender, had strawberry blond hair formed around her face accenting her jaw-line and her deep blue eyes stopped your heart as you got lost in them. Her fair complexion was silky and complimented her soft face.

He was getting crazy to make her his submissive, controlling her mind, soul and body. Will their fate fulfil his desire to control her? Or will this desire transform into the desire of making her his? To get your answers dive into the heartwarming and intense journey of the hottest and strictest Master you will ever find and his innocent little butterfly. *** "Fuck you and get the hell out of my cafe if you don't want me to kick your ass." He frowned and dragged me to the backside of the cafe by seizing my wrist. Then he pushed me into the party hall and hurriedly locked the door. "What the fuck do you think of yourself? You," "Shut up." He roared, cutting my words. He grabbed my wrist again and dragged me to the sofa. He sat down and then, with a swift motion he yanked me down and bent me over his lap. He pinned me against the sofa by pressing his hand on my back and locked my legs between his. What is he doing? Chills rushed down my spine.

mereka sering mengira Kota itu ramai. Tapi pada kenyataannya Kota itu tak pernah benar-benar ramai, bagi Vania rumah Vania selalu terasa lebih sunyi daripada jalanan di luar sana. Rumah dua lantai dengan pagar hitam tinggi itu berdiri megah, tetapi tak pernah terasa hangat. Dindingnya kokoh, lampunya terang, namun percakapan di dalamnya selalu singkat dan seperlunya. Vania tumbuh di antara jadwal rapat dan dering telepon papahnya yang tak pernah berhenti. Pria itu selalu berangkat sebelum matahari terbit dan pulang ketika malam hampir habis. Jas kerjanya rapi, wajahnya tegas, tetapi waktunya tak pernah cukup untuk duduk sebentar dan mendengarkan cerita putrinya. Di meja makan yang panjang, kursi papah sering kali kosong atau jika terisi, hanya ada keheningan yang menggantung canggung. Bagi Vania. rumah bukan tempat berbagi cerita, melainkan tempat menyimpan luka. Di sekolah, ia dikenal sebagai siswi pendiam. Senyumnya manis tapi siapa yang tahu sorot matanya menyimpan lelah yang tak dimengerti teman-temannya. Ia pernah menemukan tempat bersandar seseorang yang membuatnya merasa didengar, dihargai, dan tidak sendirian. Seseorang yang menjadi dunianya ketika rumah tak lagi terasa utuh. Namun sandaran itu runtuh. Orang yang paling ia percaya justru meninggalkannya dan menghianatinya. Sejak saat itu, Vania belajar menjadi wanita yang lebih tegar. Ia yakin bahwa ia mampu melewati semuanya sendiri. Lorong sekolah, bangku taman, dan sudut perpustakaan menjadi saksi bisu tangis yang ia sembunyikan. Hari-harinya berjalan datar hingga suatu pagi, di tengah riuh langkah siswa dan bel yang menggema, takdir mempertemukan ia dengan seseorang. Seseorang yang mampu mengerti yang terdalam yang tersembunyi di balik dirinya. Dan seseorang yang mempunyai luka yang sama. Dan di sanalah cerita Vania benar-benar dimulai di antara luka yang tak kunjung sembuh, dan harapan yang diam-diam tumbuh kembali.

I was reborn. Opening my eyes on the sofa, the television flickered before me, broadcasting another financial news segment about my husband, Jasper Brolin. The Alpha of the Moonblood pack, a man who had sat at the top of the billionaire list for years, was speaking with his usual cool authority. Broad-shouldered and sharp-featured, he carried an air of cold command that made him untouchable. Whenever he stepped into the public eye, the crowd surged with screams and breathless admiration. My marriage to him was the envy of our entire circle, and every woman wished to step into my shoes. As I watched the screen, memories of my tragic death in my last life came rushing back, sending a quiet ache through my chest. My wolf rumbled low in my chest. "So we're back. Now what?" "Break the bond," I whispered. "I'm leaving him." "He'll never agree to that." "That's why I need her help," I replied, thinking of the woman I had always disliked—Halle. Halle walked into the café, a smug smirk was plastered on her face. Having grown up alongside Jasper, she was regarded as his inner circle, and people never failed to give her the highest courtesy. I slid a mate-bond dissolution document across the table. "I need your help, Halle. And of course, there's something in it for you too." She glanced through the papers, suspicion flashing in her eyes. "Are you leaving him?" she asked. My voice was calm, "Maybe you're the one he really wants by his side." In my last life, I was the perfect Mrs. Brolin, envied by all, yet never the one he held closest. This time, I would take my unborn pup and leave quietly.

"Nak, demi keluarga kita... kamu harus menikahi Tuan Arsen." "APA?! Menikah dengan Bos Papa?! Tidak mau! Papa, ini lelucon, kan?! Aku masih kuliah! Aku bahkan sudah punya pacar! Papa tidak bisa melakukan ini padaku!" Virly menolak mentah-mentah. Reaksi Virly sama sekali tidak menggoyahkan Arsen. Ia bangkit dari sofa, menjulang tinggi di atas keluarga yang sedang hancur itu. "Aku tidak peduli kau punya pacar atau masih kuliah. Kau punya satu hari untuk memutuskan. Menikah denganku, atau ayahmu masuk penjara dan semua asetmu akan kuserahkan ke bank. Aku hanya butuh ibu untuk kedua anakku." Ucap Arsen dingin dan tegas "Kau tak boleh seenaknya!" Virly berteriak kesal. "Pikirkan baik-baik. Waktu terus berjalan, Nona." Arsen melangkah Pergi.
