"Aku memiliki darah penyihir, aku kebal terhadap racun vampire, dan aku sangat kuat. Kamu boleh menghisap darahku." "Tidak. .. eh ... tidak." Elora terpana melihat senyuman dari bibir Damio, wajah tampannya sulit diterima akal sehat. Kok bisa ada orang setampan ini? Apa karena dia keturunan bangsawan? " ... kamu pasti tidak bisa menolak aroma ini 'kan? Darah penyihir selalu memabukkan untuk vampire, hisap saja darahku sebagai awal perjanjian kita," ucap Damio dengan suara lirih seperti rayuan iblis. "Tapi, aku tidak ... bisa ... tidak tahu ..." *** Elora terjebak masuk ke dalam novel yang baru selesai dibaca.

On my 50th wedding anniversary, I took my worn, crumbling marriage certificate to City Hall to renew it. The clerk glanced at it—and froze. “This certificate is fake. Our records show you’ve never been married.” I stared. “Impossible. I’ve been married to Damien Slater for fifty years.” The clerk pulled up his file. “Well…Yes, Mr. Slater is married—but his wife’s name is Vanessa Grant.” Vanessa. His widowed sister-in-law. A military doctor who’d spent decades living among the troops. My hands shook as I returned home and confronted Damien. He didn’t even try to deny it. “I’ve treated you well all these years. Isn’t that enough? Vanessa is my true love. I only ever wanted her—our children, our life.” My son counseled me and said, “To spare your feelings, my parents kept it a secret their whole lives. You’re getting old now. What more do you want?” Only then did I learn the truth. The child I had raised with my own hands was never mine by blood. Decades ago, Vanessa and I gave birth on the same day. To ensure her child would grow up with intellect, privilege, and a future that I could provide, Damien switched our children. My own son? Damien drowned him in the pond the moment he drew breath. And I—fool that I was—raised Vanessa’s boy as my own. I even got him all the way to Claremont University. The truth broke me, and I collapsed. When I opened my eyes again—I was back. Back to the day I went into labor.

Terjepit utang nyawa demi operasi ibunya, Helena terpaksa menukar kehormatannya dengan koin emas dari sang Duke yang haus belaian. Di balik kemegahan kastil, Arthur yang dingin dan diabaikan istrinya menuntut Helena bukan sekadar menjadi pelayan, melainkan pemuas gairah di ranjang rahasianya. Satu tanda tangan pada kontrak gelap itu menjerat Helena dalam pusaran syahwat dan pengkhianatan yang tak memiliki jalan pulang.

The Duke was standing in the middle of the room, his hands in his pockets, his head tilted to one side. It was a relaxed, casual pose, and yet the way he looked at her was anything but casual. The deep midnight of his eyes burned and he radiated a subtle, sensual energy that made the air around him crackle. He looked like a man who’d never heard the word ‘no’ in all his life. Unluckily for him, ‘no’ was the only word she had. “There's no reason why I should stay,” Anna clasped her shaking hands together in an effort to still them. “I’m not marrying you.” His gaze flickered, his mouth curving slightly, and she had the disturbing thought that far from putting him off, her insistence was only inciting him further. “But you haven’t heard my proposal yet,” he said mildly. “Isn’t that why you’re here?” “I don’t need to hear it. I already know that my answer will be no.” “Of course. But you can hardly tell your father that you heard me out when you haven’t, in fact, heard me out…. Anna.”
