Sa dami rami ang naghangad na pagsilbihan ang pitong binata na ito ay siya na nga siguro ang isa sa pinaka swerte.

The explosion wiped out my parents—and their company. All I had left was some insurance cash and a pile of patents nobody cared about. I begged their old partners to back me. Crickets. Then Alex Ross strolled in, played the hero no one asked for, and proposed. Five years deep into our marriage, after my 99th FDA rejection, I finally cracked. I was in the garage when I heard his phone on speaker. Mark's voice came through: "Dude, you're still handing Lily Emma's blueprints before she even files? How many times has she flopped now? Girl's relentless, huh?" Alex? Straight-up ice. "Ninety-nine. She'll quit soon." "You're really tanking your wife to boost Lily's brand? Worth it?" "Lily's launching her new product tomorrow at the Boston Medical Summit. Patent number 100. Watching her blow up from nothing... makes me proud." "But it's all Emma's stuff. Your dad made you marry her for her brain, didn't he?" "Don't bring up my father." His voice turned sharp. "He forced me to dump Lily. I just played along." I sank into the driver's seat, frozen. I wasn't a partner. Just a pawn—revenge bait for his dad and backup fuel for his ex.

"PAPA SUDAH BILANG JAGA OLIVE! TAPI KAMU TIDAK BISA MEMBUKTIKANNYA! KAMU SELALU MEMBUAT ORANG-ORANG YANG SAYA SAYANGI TERLUKA!" Perlahan Rian mulai membuka ikat pinggangnya. Ia ingat jelas ketika mendiang istrinya—Rindu tertabrak mobil, karena menyelamatkan Sina. Ia juga mengingat Lili meninggal sebab melahirkan Sina. Luka yang Rian alami tak lain dan tak bukan adalah karena Sina—anaknya sendiri. SET! Sina memejamkan kedua matanya kala ikat pinggang itu mencambuk tubuhnya. Gadis malang itu mulai terduduk dengan tubuh gemetar hebat. "Jika Olive mati, papa tidak akan pernah memaafkan kamu!" "Saya bingung, kenapa Tuhan menghadirkan kamu di kehidupan saya!" "Pertama, Lili! Kedua Rindu dan sekarang Olive?" sentak Rian pada anak itu. "Kenapa kamu harus hidup dengan membawa kesialan?!" "KENAPA BUKAN KAMU SAJA YANG MATI!" Mendengar kalimat terakhir tangis Sina pecah. Ulu hatinya tiba-tiba merasa sakit. Dadanya mendadak sesak. PLAK! SEAT! Sina tidak melawan. Ia hanya bisa meringkuk mendapat perlakuan kasar dari ayah kandungnya sendiri itu. Hanya air mata yang bisa menerjemahkan tentang seterluka apa Sina saat ini. "I'm okay." Nyatanya kata-kata itu hanyalah kalimat palsu yang sering Sina tunjukkan. Selama ini Sina tidak baik-baik saja. Ia dihujam ribuan luka dan menyimpannya sendiri. Tak ada yang baik-baik saja kala semua orang membencinya. Tak ada yang baik-baik saja saat semua orang mengharapkan kepergiannya. Sina berharap lukanya berakhir. Namun, nyatanya luka itu terus datang dan membuat luka yang lainnya ikut menganga. Sinar Rembulan redup, sebab sulit bertahan dengan luka di dalam kesendirian. Tak ada tempat baginya untuk bersandar. Tak ada manusia yang memberikannya semangat atau motivasi. Sina kehilangan arah, saat ini gadis itu sudah sampai di puncak keletihan. Lalu harus bagaimana? Mengakhiri hidupn? Atau bertahan dengan luka yang tiada akhir?

In the seventh year of dating Lorenzo Townsend, he still didn't want to marry me. One day, I said to him, "Lorenzo, I'm getting married." He frowned slightly, not even sure if he heard me right. "The company is going public, and we're swamped. This is not the time to discuss such an insignificant topic," he said. I smiled calmly. Maybe to him, it seemed like I was pushing him to marry me. But the truth was, I was getting married, but not to him.

Pitong kwento ng pitong magkakaibigan na pumapaslang ng inosenteng tao. May dahilan man o wala, mas nangingibabaw pa rin ang kanilang pangako sa isa't isa.

"Instead of asking me to be your toy, I would prefer if you rejected me as your mate." I tried not to cry because I knew it was useless in this situation. For people who have power like him, they never have a conscience. "You think I like having a useless mate like you?" he growled. "Of all the werewolves, how could the moon goddess choose you as my mate? How unlucky I am," he cursed. "Then just reject me so you can be free!" I challenged him to do so. Even though I knew it would be so painful that it would feel like welcoming my death. But it was better than living miserably with an Alpha who didn't love me at all. I'd rather be tormented by the pain like a knife to my heart than be terrified all my life with a knife in front of my face that I don't know when it's going to cut me. He grinned, sending chills down my spine. For some reason, I always felt a sense of danger whenever I was around him. It made me feel uncomfortable. "The more you want it, the more I'll never do it." He pulled my waist roughly and whispered above my lips. With a condescending smile that made my pride feel like it was being trampled on. "Being my toy is better than being a whore out there, Ruth." I pushed him roughly and yelled at him. "I will never be your toy!" Ruth was mated to seven alpha brothers, who were her bully and soon to be her stepbrothers. They made sure that her life would be hell, because her mother took their mother place now she will pay for her mother sin. READ STANDALONE CINDERELLA SECOND PART, TRIPLET ALPHAS' CINDERELLA DOCTOR
