Sino Si Don Rafael Ibarra

di Balik Gemerlap BSD Sasya Maharani adalah prototipe kesempurnaan di SMA Puncak BSD, sebuah institusi elite di jantung kota metropolitan. Dikenal sebagai "Si Gadis Es" karena fokusnya yang mutlak pada akademik dan masa depan cemerlang, hidup Sasya terencana rapi dan tanpa emosi yang mengganggu. Namun, ketenangan hidupnya terusik saat ia dipertemukan dengan Ardi Sanjaya, murid pindahan yang misterius dan dikelilingi rumor perkelahian di sudut-sudut BSD. Ardi, dengan tatapan liarnya dan kepolosan seorang anak, langsung mengklaim Sasya sebagai teman pertamanya, bahkan menyatakan cinta dengan lugas di tengah taman kota. Pertemuan tak terduga ini menarik Sasya ke dalam lingkaran pertemanan Ardi yang eksentrik, termasuk Nisa Adelia, si pecandu media sosial yang haus perhatian, dan Rizky Pratama (Kiki), atlet basket yang tenang. Di tengah hiruk pikuk BSD yang serba modern, Sasya mulai melihat sisi lain Ardi: kepolosan di balik citra berandal, kecerdasan tersembunyi yang mengancam posisinya sebagai murid teladan, dan hati yang rentan akibat masa lalu keluarganya yang kompleks, terutama hubungannya dengan sang kakak, Yudha Sanjaya. Seiring waktu, perasaan Sasya terhadap Ardi mulai tumbuh, memporak-porandakan logika dan rencana masa depannya. Di saat yang sama, Kenan Wijaya, putra konglomerat BSD yang karismatik, muncul dan terang-terangan menunjukkan ketertarikan pada Sasya, menciptakan persaingan sengit dengan Ardi. Sasya harus bergulat dengan perasaannya sendiri, memahami arti persahabatan, cinta, dan bagaimana menyeimbangkan ambisi akademisnya dengan gejolak hatinya. Novel ini akan mengikuti perjalanan Sasya dan Ardi—si kulkas berjalan dan si berandal—dalam menavigasi kompleksitas masa remaja, tekanan akademis, dan dinamika hubungan. Dari momen-momen kocak di foodcourt mal hingga percakapan serius di rooftop gedung-gedung tinggi BSD, mereka akan belajar untuk saling percaya, berkomunikasi, dan tumbuh menjadi pribadi yang lebih dewasa. Pada akhirnya, di tengah gemerlap dan kesibukan BSD City mereka akan menemukan bahwa cinta sejati seringkali hadir dalam bentuk yang paling tak terduga, mengubah peta kehidupan mereka dan membuka lembaran baru.

Yes." The word left my lips like a death sentence. "I'll marry you." Leo's smile spread slowly across his face as victory gleamed in his eyes. "Smart choice Alessia, I've always known you're a genius.." "This last clause is non-negotiable," Leo said, pointing to a paragraph at the end. "You will act as the perfect wife in all public settings. No hints of coercion, no cries for help, no attempts to contact law enforcement." "I need to think," I said weakly. "You've done your thinking already." Leo pushed a pen into my hand. "Sign." With each signature on each page, I felt another piece of my soul chip away. Yet beneath the fear and resignation, something else burned and it was a fierce determination. ‘I'll play his game’, I thought. ‘I'll be his perfect wife and then I'll destroy him from the inside out.’ As if reading my thoughts, Leo smiled when I signed the final page. "Don't get any ideas about double-crossing me, Lessia. Smarter people than you have tried." And that was it, My fate was sealed to the most Dangerous Man in the city, will I survive this?

I poured out my heart to him, telling him everything and not leaving a single part out of it. "Please, Don Xander, I will be grateful if you could grant me just this one wish" I begged desperately, my voice cracking at the end, even though I tried so hard to stay strong. He tilted his head to one side and smirked. "I can do that for you" he said, and my eyes beam with happiness immediately. "But..." He trailed off, swirling his drink in his hand. "What do I get in return for helping you? After all, it's all about give and take" My jaw dropped instantly. His playboy attitude playing in my head. "I... I can't... I mean, I'm sorry Don Xander but I'm not the type of girl who sleeps around with men. If it's okay with you, I can work for you instead" I suggested. He wave his index finger, shaking his head. "No, Bella" he said in a low, husky voice. Then, he rose from his seat and walked towards to me, his movement graceful and deliberate. I shivered, still seated as he crouched beside me. He leaned closer to my face and I tilted my head to look at him in the eyes. "If I will help you..." he whispered, his warm breath sending shivers down my spine. "You must give me something in return" "What do you want?" I asked in a low voice. His eyes gleamed with intensity. "I want you, Isabella" he whispered, his lips grazing my ear. I jerked back, shocked by his request. "Don Xander!" I exclaimed, my voice trembling.
