Smallville Daily Planet

Nineteen-year-old Alex Raynot has never known peace. Between a sick younger brother, parents whose love curdled into daily war, and a cheating ex who turned violent, she’s learned that survival means never trusting too deeply, and never hoping too much. But when one night of terror drives her straight into the path of three dangerous men who look like sin sculpted in flesh, her world takes a turn she could never have imagined. Reed. Rhett. Rhys. Three brothers with eyes like night and power that hums in the air around them. They rule Denver’s underground. Their names whispered with both reverence and fear. Ruthless. Unreachable. Untouchable. Until Alex crashes into their world. A wrong door. A desperate escape. One encounter that should have ended in disaster becomes a collision course with fate. Because when her family is forced to relocate for her grandfather’s funeral, Alex discovers the unthinkable truth: those same three men, the ones who saved her, and branded her mind with fear and forbidden desire, are her step uncles. Now, she’s trapped inside their mansion, surrounded by luxury that feels like a gilded cage. Every hallway hums with tension, every look from Reed burns like a challenge, every word from Rhys teases the edge of danger, and every silent glance from Rhett feels like a promise of something she shouldn’t want. They’re older. Powerful. Untouchable. And yet, each carries a darkness that pulls her closer. But beneath the glittering wealth and cold marble walls lie secrets her father refuses to explain, secrets about why he left this family years ago, and what kind of empire his half-brothers truly built.

Aku sempat berpikir bahwa aku tidak seberuntung seperti orang yang sangat beruntung di planet ini. Aku Tere. Gadis yang hidup sebatang kara dan hanya berteman dengan kesunyian dan kegelapan. Sejak usiaku 7 tahun, aku telah kehilangan keluarga ku. Bukan karena kecelakaan melainkan karena mereka tega membuang ku ke jalanan. Entah apa salahku? Aku tidak cacat dan aku juga tidak meminta untuk di lahirkan ke dunia ini. Tapi mereka sangat tega kepadaku? Mereka tega membuang ku ke jalanan dengan alasan aku hanya membawa kesialan di dalam kehidupan mereka. Saat itu aku berusaha memohon agar mereka tak meninggalkan ku di tempat asing ini. Tapi tak satupun di antara mereka memiliki keinginan untuk membawaku pulang. Mereka membawa ku jauh dari rumah agar tak satupun ada orang yang mengenaliku ataupun mengenali keluargaku. Mereka meninggalkan ku seorang diri di tempat ini dalam kondisi kelaparan. Tubuhku yang kurus ini juga merasa sangat kedinginan karena hujan deras mengguyur tubuhku. Aku berusaha berjalan untuk mencari pertolongan, tapi sepertinya tempat ini jauh dari pemukiman warga karena tak melihat seorang pun melewati tempat ini. Karena tubuh kurus ku ini tak sanggup menahan rasa dingin yang menusuk hingga terasa sampai ke tulang akhirnya aku pun perlahan lemas karena perutku juga sangat kelaparan.

When the bank calls me to collect the first round of mortgages from me, do I realize that my wife, Denise Sheridan, also the same woman who eats leftovers and saves every single penny with me in our daily lives, has bought my brother-in-law, Dmitri Sheridan, two prime mansions located near a school. While Dmitri is placed as the mansion deed holder, I'm the one who's supposed to clear off the mortgages. I hurl the purchasing contract to the floor in fury. "You said Nancy's leukemia requires a shit ton of money, so I've been saving up my whole life. I even went as far as to work ten jobs per day! "My dad had to sell his kidney in exchange for a term of Nancy's chemotherapy bills because you told me the money wasn't enough at all. But thanks to the shady hospital, he died on the surgical table! "And yet, now you've used the money that Dad and I had put our blood, sweat, and tears into earning to buy mansions for Dmitri! Do you even have a conscience?" "What happened to your dad was destined to be! Sure, we could always make more money if we have more treatment bills to cover, but Dmitri's case is different! He urgently needs money for his marriage!" Denise refutes in a righteous way. I'm about to lash out at her when my daughter, Nancy Sheridan, rushes out. "Dad, Uncle Dmitri is the hope of our family! I don't mind giving him money to spend!" At that moment, I finally realize that not only am I this household's ATM, but my own daughter is also an ingrate through and through.

Her parents found their biological child, Cielle, and brought her home, relegating Alora to the status of a servant in her own house.

When I saw my best friend tending to the elderly man upstairs with such diligence in washing his clothes, cooking his meals, feeding him medicine, and giving him massages, I immediately knew that she had been reborn, too. In my previous life, my best friend and I shared an apartment. We were often awakened in the middle of the night by the old man’s cough from upstairs. When I went up to check on him, I learned that his legs were paralyzed, and he had no children or family. Out of sympathy, I decided to care for him. I brought him his daily meals and gave him massages. A month later, out of the blue, the old man mysteriously handed me a bank card and said, “There’s eight million here. It’s my reward to you.” With that money, I immediately went and paid off my father’s medical bills. Later, the old man went even further and transferred the ownership of the apartment that we were renting to me. He told me, “When your father is discharged, move in together. That way, I’ll have someone to keep me company, too!” When my best friend learned of this, however, she went ballistic. During the few days I was having trouble sleeping, she had secretly spiked my water with a lethal dose of sleeping pills. She watched as I died in agony. After my death, my boyfriend, posing as my fiancé, cut off my father’s medical bills and took away the old man’s bank card. Meanwhile, my best friend spread slanderous rumors among the neighbors, claiming the old man gave me money because I had sold myself to him. Half a year later, the two got married and paid in full for a luxury apartment in the city centre. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on that very day when the old man upstairs was coughing uncontrollably.

Cerita ini berkisah tentang kehidupan di tahun 3000. Semburan lumpur Lapindo hampir menenggelamkan pulau Jawa bagian timur. Ditambah kemunculan planet Nibiru yang memancarkan gelombang partikel energi plasma menimbulkan perubahan besar pada struktur aliran inti bumi. Peningkatan kegiatan seismik dan volkanik memicu peningkatan aktifitas gunung berapi. Indonesia yang berada di wilayah cincin api pasifik, menerima imbas besar terutama pulau Jawa. Secara beruntun letusan gunung berapi menenggelamkan setengah dari pulau Jawa bagian barat. Pulau Jawa hanya tersisa hamparan tanah gersang dari sisa-sisa luapan lumpur Lapindo dan debu vulkanik letusan gunung berapi. Peradaban lama telah musnah, kehidupan baru pun tercipta. Sludge City, sebuah kota yang berdiri diatas dataran tandus itu. Dimana air bersih dan oksigen menjadi sesuatu yang sangat berharga. Lord Zack memimpin Sludge City dengan memonopoli sumber alam yang menjadi sumber kehidupan penduduk Sludge City. Sementara jauh dari pusat kota Slude City, terpisah oleh ratusan kilometer tanah gersang dan tandus, ada sebuah tempat tersembunyi di dasar lembah dari pegunungan Dieng. Sangat kontras dengan keadaaan Sludge City, Lembah Dieng merupakan tempat dengan sumber air bersih dan oksigen yang melimpah, hutan dan pepohonan yang masih rimbun, membuat Lembah Dieng begitu hijau jika di lihat dari langit. Struktur tanah yang berada di dasar lembah dan dikelilingi perbukitan dan bebatuan membuat lembah Dieng aman, sekaligus terisolasi dari dunia luar. Anaxtra lahir dan tumbuh dewasa di lembah itu, hampir setiap sudut lembah tak pernah luput dari pijakan kakinya. Lembah itu terasa sempit baginya. "Ada dunia seperti apa di balik dinding batu yang menjulang tinggi yang membatasi geraknya?" Pikirnya setiap kali pandangannya terbentur pada tembok raksasa di depannya. Dan petualangannya pun dimulai ketika suatu hari Anaxtra berhasil naik keluar dari dalam Tebing Dieng.

On the night I add my new girlfriend, Celia Spencer, into my group chat with my friends, my college roommate, Kevin Wright, suddenly posts more than a dozen screenshots in the group chat. Those screenshots feature the fragments of daily life I occasionally post on my social media feed. "Now here's where things get confusing. We only earn thousands of dollars per month. Where on earth did you get your money from in order to live such a lavish life? "I've been holding my tongue for far too long. At first, I intended to protect your pride. But now that you're dating such a wonderful, beautiful, and rich woman, I don't have the heart to see her getting lied to." In the end, Kevin tags Celia in the group chat. His words are filled with regret and pain. "Ms. Spencer, you're a rich scion, so you might not know anything about the bottom feeders' tactics. A fake scion like Luke who has racked up a huge online debt and brands his social media feed to look rich is very common in society! You have to keep your eyes open, you know! Take care not to get tricked by scammers!" As I suppress my anger, I respond with, "I never stole nor robbed from others! What's wrong with me spending my own money?" Kevin quickly retaliates with a lengthy audio message. "Your own money, you say? Your net worth isn't enough to afford even one segment of that luxury wristwatch in the photo! Why are you still pretending to be rich?" I just laugh in response. Does Kevin really think that rich people don't wear cheap stuff? What he doesn't know is that Celia, the so-called rich and beautiful woman he's trying so hard to kiss up to, is actually just someone I've hired to play the part. I'm the actual scion here, whereas Celia is just a fake heiress.
