Secrets The Killer

“Pernikahan ini bukan karena cinta… tapi karena keadaan.” Arga Mahendra dikenal sebagai dosen sastra paling ditakuti di kampus. Sikapnya dingin, aturannya kaku, dan tidak ada toleransi untuk kesalahan sekecil apa pun. Tak heran, para mahasiswa menjulukinya “dosen killer.” Naya Lestari, mahasiswi tingkat akhir yang keras kepala namun cerdas, mendadak harus menghadapi Arga sebagai dosen pembimbing skripsinya. Bagi Naya, ini adalah ujian terberat dalam hidupnya. Namun semuanya berubah drastis saat satu insiden tak terduga membuat mereka terpaksa menikah—bukan karena cinta, melainkan demi menyelamatkan reputasi dan masa depan mereka berdua. Pernikahan mereka adalah kontrak. Tak ada perasaan, tak ada kehangatan—hanya kesepakatan dan jarak yang dijaga rapat. Tapi hidup bersama di bawah satu atap perlahan mengungkap sisi lain dari Arga yang tak pernah diketahui siapa pun, dan membawa Naya pada dilema antara rasa takut dan harapan. Ketika drama kampus, tekanan keluarga, dan masa lalu yang belum selesai mulai menghantui, keduanya harus menjawab pertanyaan yang tak bisa dihindari: Apakah pernikahan kilat ini akan berakhir sebagai kesalahan besar… atau justru menjadi awal dari kisah cinta yang sesungguhnya?

"Pick up…. pick up… please" When the call did not get through, I burst into tears. The killer was now banging the door violently. “Inspector Kenneth speaking” Uncle Ken’s voice came through and right at the same the killer made a whole in the door by his continuous banging. "Uncle Ken, he's here, he is going to kill me…." I stated this in a panicked, horrified tone. “Zara, darling, we were going to have some fun why did you called the police?” he said in a cold tone bringing out his silvery knife. A shudder rushed down the spine. However, I maintained my composure. "You are over now," I said, trying to mask my terror. "Tsk, tsk, tsk, not yet…." He answered and raced towards me. What happens next???

Blurb The downpour washed the dark alleys of Ole Keating Village like Jupiter is wrathful towards the small town. Every time the lightning slashes the skies sending frightening thunders everywhere, the little boy’s strides become faster. “You’ve got nowhere to run, boy.” He harshly covered his ears just to get away from the taunting voice. The heavy rain somehow managed to wipe the blood from his body yet the pain unrelenting to grow. He fell on his knees resulting in another painful and ugly scratch to bleed. He looks like a beaten rag. He hasn’t eaten for days and the fearsome encounter he just escapes didn’t guarantee his safety. Even limping, he tried to get on his feet just to stumble and fall on the cold, hard ground again. A loud sound of the honking car filled his ears as the blinding light approaches closer. Surrendering, he lied flat on the ground wishing the pain finally ends. Sounds of boots slapping the water from the road come into his senses but he’s too weak to care. Someone’s checking on him but all that he can think of right now is the girl she left alone in the old warehouse. “S-save her…” he mumbled, tasting blood in his mouth, “Please save her.” The darkness pulled him and he finally gave in.

She was back. She is innocent and beautiful. She was intimidated. He was ambitious. He is kind and handsome. He falls in love. In the sultry haze of passion’s fire, Two hearts collided, desire unbridled. Their love, a clandestine affair, Igniting flames that danced and swirled. Amidst tangled sheets and whispered vows, they wove a tale of stolen moments, Each touch a confession, each kiss a plea, To drown in the depths of their shared ecstasy. The moon bore witness to their stolen nights, As they traced constellations on bare skin, Their secrets etched in sweat and sighs, A love forbidden, yet impossible to rescind. But dawn arrived, cruel and unyielding, tearing them apart like fragile petals. Promises whispered, promises broken, Their hearts left bleeding, forever unsettled. And so, they became ghosts of passion, haunted by memories of that steamy affair, Their love a bittersweet ache, a silent confession, In the quiet hours when the world ceased to care. For love, once ignited, never truly dies, It lingers in the shadows, a smoldering flame, A testament to the heat of their stolen nights, A tale of love after a steamy affair, untamed.
