Melihat itu Lyshi langsung berlari dan mencengkeram seragam bagian belakang Bian. "Bian! Kamu tuh jahat banget, masa nyuekin Lyshi terus dari tadi. Dasar manusia jahat!" cerocos gadis berambut panjang itu. Tangan Bian terulur menghapus bulir keringat di dahi Lyshi. "Udah ngomelnya?" Lyshi mendengus kesal. "Belum. Lyshi nggak akan berhenti ngomel sebelum Bian nurutin permintaan Lyshi," ujarnya bergebu-gebu. "Kamu mau apa? Yakult? Novel? Baju? Bakso mercon? Kucing?" tanya Bian menyebutkan hal-hal yang disukai Lyshi. "Nggak. Lyshi nggak mau itu." Dahi Bian berkerut, "Terus maunya apa?" Lyshi menatap maniak hitam Bian dengan serius. "Lyshi cuma minta Bian selalu ada buat Lyshi. Bian nggak boleh pergi ninggalin Lyshi apapun yang terjadi," tuturnya mengangkat jari kelingking. Bian meneguk ludah kasar melihat raut keseriusan di mata Lyshi. "Siap!" timpal Bian mengangkat jari kelingkingnya, lalu menautkan dengan kelingking milik Lyshi. "Tapi aku nggak bisa janji, Ly. Aku takut kamu yang akan pergi ninggalin aku setelah kamu tau semuanya," batin Bian

While picking up my parcel from the mailroom, I run into Ivan Judd, an underprivileged student from my grade who is working part-time there. While we chat, he finds out that I'd spent 128 thousand dollars during the Black Friday sales. Dumbfounded, Ivan cries, "I've never even seen that kind of money in my entire life! And you're spending it so casually? Did your mom send you to college to study or to blow money like this?" He yanks the parcel out of my hands and physically blocks the exit. "Return it immediately! Kids like you never understand how hard it is for adults to earn money! If you're this wasteful now, what man can afford to marry you in the future?" I can't help but laugh angrily at Ivan's ridiculous attitude. I retort, "What does me spending my mom's money have anything to do with you?" "How does it not?" He looks completely justified when he says, "I'm dating your mom. Every cent you spend counts as our future marital assets!" I am shocked. Isn't Mom a lesbian? Since when did she start liking men?

She’s a lioness in velvet chains—calm, calculating, and waiting for her moment. Lucien didn’t expect her fire. She didn’t expect his scars. What begins as a twisted game of control and survival becomes something far more dangerous: emotion. As secrets unravel and obsession burns into something deeper, Seraphina edges dangerously close to what she swore she’d never feel again—trust. Love. Want. But she hasn’t forgotten her mission. Lucien was supposed to be her weapon, not her salvation. And when her revenge explodes into reality, both hearts will shatter under the weight of betrayal. Until he asks the one question that changes everything: “Have you ever loved me?” Chains of Velvet, Heart of Fire is a gripping dark mafia romance about love born from power, loyalty forged in fire, and two broken souls who dared to rewrite their fate. Perfect for fans of morally gray heroes, twist-filled emotional sagas, and heroines who take their power back—beautifully, mercilessly, and on their own terms.

At sixty-five, I got served divorce papers. The same day, my husband Sebastian — decked out in his wedding suit, of all things — popped a handful of sleeping pills in a suicide attempt. For years, we were the perfect couple. The kind of pair neighbors whispered about with envy. I couldn't wrap my head around it. The divorce. The pills. None of it made sense. Not until I found the photo and letter in his pocket.
