Shining Lotus Bookstore

Being an orphan without everything, Rage only wants two things in his life: love and acceptance. But he is surrounded by worthless adults who only regard him as a tool for achieving their dreams. He was beaten up, and his body has been experimented with at a young age. He expects nothing from everyone but betrayal. Trust issue became his best friend. Rage. They named him Rage, a wolf without a last name. For the past 23 years, he knows nothing about himself except that he is Rage. When he stepped into the Lotus Pack, he was mistreated and despised by everyone—avoiding him as if he had a contagious disease. But Dane Steele, the Lotus Pack's Alpha King, and his family never see him as a threat. They adopt him as their son, lavishing him with love and attention. He never felt anything like this before. Rage had no idea he'd find a home at the Alpha King's house and fall in love with their only daughter, Daphne. He never anticipated Daphne to bring out the soft side of him, and somehow it affects him. But loving her is a sin... and he is a threat. He is the young man in the prophecy who will destroy the whole world. How can he love his "sister", the daughter of the Alpha King, if he has nothing to offer? He is just a wolf without a surname. A pariah...

He is handsome, he is ruthless, he is feared by all, he is alpha Damian of the silver pack, and no one dares to stand against him. In a period of war, trials, and tribulations between the twelve wolf tribes and the rogues, what will happen when a mighty alpha’s heart is captured by a misesteemed Lotus princess? Miranda agrees to a union with the mighty alpha, all to save her people, but what will happen when this union brings the two, different but not so different together, more than they ever expected? Will Miranda later discover her true feelings for the one she is fated to?

Josh Carter, a beguiling wealthy person known for his costly occasions and laid-back manner, is at crossroads. At the point when his dad dies suddenly, he is given a horrendous predicament framed in his dad's will: wed to acquire the Carter family riches, or watch everything deteriorate away. The Carter realm's past weighs intensely on Josh's shoulders, yet the idea of surrendering his unique lone fierce way of life feels like detainment. Josh makes a dangerous arrangement to get away from this unexpected circumstance. He moves toward Amy Wesley, the contemplative and bashful proprietor of a little bookstore in the downtown area, with a fascinating proposition: a contract marriage. Amy, who is lowered under water and fantasies about reestablishing her valued yet monetary striving bookstore, takes Josh's deal. They start their contract marriage, what starts as a ploy changes into considerably more. Josh's unbending facade starts to break, finding scars from a difficult past he's for quite some time tried to neglect. Amy, with secret stores of force, shrewdly directs Josh through the complexities of their bogus marriage. Their lives become weaved surprisingly, and the limits between what's valid and what's only for show get obscured. Amy finds a secret note tending to her, covered in the dusty profundities of the bookstore, similarly as they have faith in the possibility of certifiable love. The note implies a labrynth of foul play and covered thought processes that causes some qualms about Josh's real goals. Amy starts on an excursion to find the purpose for Josh's inspirations, driven by encoded hints from the note, and the plot takes an unexpected bearing. The novel closes with a strained excursion through the city's complex roads, leaving Amy's life in risk, and a dark message implying towards a perilous plot squeezing to swallow them both.

"Tentu aku sedang tidak bercanda, Tuan Zhao. Kami menawarkan bantuan padamu. Bisa kau bayangkan jika Jenderal Duan kembali ke ibukota Kaili, dibantu Sekte Keabadian, Sekte Elang Emas dan Sekte Sembilan Pintu Kematian. Kau pasti kalah!" Tetua Oey tidak lagi tersenyum ramah. "Kami hanya menginginkan Wisma Lonceng Naga, hanya itu. Dan kami akan membantumu menaklukkan Kaili sekaligus Dataran Tengah. Bukankah itu impianmu sedari kecil?" Tetua Oey kembali memprovokasi Zhao Lu Yang. "Kenapa Anda begitu percaya diri? Lotus Hitam memang sangat kuat tetapi jika berhadapan dengan Pasukan Jenderal Duan dan tiga sekte sekaligus, sekali pun bergabung denganku, itu tidak akan menjamin sebuah kemenangan." Zhao Lu Yang menatap Tetua Oey dan tersenyum tipis. "Trik dan strategi, itu yang kami tawarkan. Jangan biarkan ketiga sekte itu memiliki kesempatan untuk bergabung apalagi membantu Kaili, maka mereka semua akan berantakan dan kacau balau. Bukankah kau sudah melihat hasilnya tiga belas tahun lalu?" Tetua Oey kembali menampilkan wajah cerah dan senyum manisnya. Provokasi dari Sekte Lotus Hitam membuat Dataran Tengah dan Tanah Bebas bergejolak. Xie Jing Cuan, Ketua Sekte Sembilan Pintu Kematian yang lama tidak muncul kini kembali untuk menunjukkan kekuatan dan dominasinya sebagai Penguasa Sembilan Pintu Kematian.
