Sofa Abu Abu Minimalis

"Marianne, it's finally time for you to pay me back what you owe me." the cold man sitting on the sofa said to me. "Please Sir, a little more time is what I ask for, I'll get your money back as soon as possible." I pleaded tearfully. "You don't need to pay money." he smiled and looked at the man standing beside him. The man moved closer and placed a neatly fold brown envelope on my palm. "We have filled in for you, today you'll be going to sign in as Xander's next mistress in Xander's mansion and what you'll have to do there is just simple." the evil man started. I listened attentively even though I was almost shitting on myself. "Do everything you can to make sure Mr Xander Knox falls for you, then break his heart" My heart stopped squeezed immediately he said the word. How was I supposed to make a cold man like Xander Knox fall for me?

At the wedding banquet, my fiancé arrived late with his first love in a best man's outfit, while the groom's suit was thrown on the sofa in a mess. "Quentin, today is our wedding..." "Natalie!" Quentin interrupted me sharply, his eyes full of warnings. "I think you should know what to say and what not to say. Be accommodating and don't make me hate you." I laughed bitterly. Just because Quentin's first love lost her memory, everyone was playing a game of finding memories with her, so we had to hide it from her and coax her, and not overwhelm her. In order to comfort me, Quentin came forward and hugged me, and whispered in my ear, "Nat, you can understand me, right?" I nodded to show my understanding, turned around, and took the hand of the real best man to join in holy matrimony. Later, when I was shopping in the mall while pregnat, he stopped me with tears in his eyes: "Nat, we were all acting, weren't we? How did you get pregnant?"

“I wish I can divorce you but the court clearly states that no divorce until the second year of marriage. Which means, we are stuck with each other. And until then, you are not leaving my sight. That means, you now live in this house, and now work for me!” He retorted. “Deal with that, princess.” The princess was said in a demeaning way. I took a shameful walk back to the sofa I got up from and sank into it. Two years with Evan Blackman? Or the street? Which would it be? ***** After Katie Malory divorced her husband who was cheating on her, she found herself rejected by the only family she had ever known. Left to suffer on the street with no single penny to her name, she was met with the rude shock that she had married a man who had always shown her that he would rather die than look at her twice. How the mistake happened, she couldn’t comprehend. But she knew she only had two options to choose from. The street of the home of the man who hated her with every fiber of his being.

Mature (21+) “Pak... bukannya tadi sudah kita lakuin di sofa?” bisik Amara dengan wajah memerah saat Darian kembali melucuti pakaiannya. “Kau tahu, Amara, untuk satu anak... kita butuh lebih dari sekali untuk bercinta,” jawabnya berat, sebelum membaringkannya di atas ranjang. Amara Aurelia hidup sebatang kara dan tak pernah memikirkan pernikahan, sampai sebuah kecelakaan membuatnya kehilangan segalanya. Di ambang kematian, hanya satu penyesalan yang tersisa: ia belum merasakan menjadi seorang ibu. Darian Lancaster, CEO dingin dan kejam, tanpa sengaja terlibat dalam insiden itu yang dihantui rasa bersalah dan siap membayar ganti rugi apapun. Hingga sebuah kontrak gila pun lahir; pernikahan rahasia tanpa cinta. Amara harus menjadi istri tersembunyi, tinggal dibawah atap Darian dan dibawah pengawasan ketatnya. Namun, bagaimana jika hubungan yang dimulai hanya demi sebuah janin ini diam-diam mengubah segalanya?

Suamiku, Brian beralasan ada urusan di kantor dan membatalkan janji ikut kegiatan studi wisata anak kami. Dia bahkan menyuruh kami untuk tidak ikut. Melihat putriku kecewa, aku memutuskan untuk tetap menemaninya pergi. Baru saja masuk sekolah, aku langsung melihat Brian bersama cinta pertamanya, si Enny dan putranya sedang duduk di sofa panggung utama. Mereka tampak begitu akrab, persis seperti keluarga kecil yang harmonis. Brian memegang mikrofon, berbicara panjang lebar tentang bagaimana dia bisa meraih kesuksesan dalam karir, sekaligus menjaga keharmonisan rumah tangga. Di sela ucapannya, dia beberapa kali bertukar senyuman dengan Enny. Orang-orang di bawah panggung bertepuk tangan meriah. Wajah Brian terlihat puas, bahkan bocah di sampingnya pun ikut tampak angkuh. Tak lama kemudian, masuk sesi tanya jawab. Aku langsung merebut mikrofon dan bertanya, “Aku ingin bertanya sejak kapan Pak Brian punya seorang putra? Apa istrimu tahu soal ini?”

Nasib si Bungsu. (Saat masa jaya orang tua telah habis). "Jadwal kontrol Bapak tiga hari lagi, kamu sudah dapat uang buat biaya rental mobil?" tanya Ibuku saat aku baru saja pulang. "Yusup usahain ya Bu, semoga ada rezekinya," jawabku. Sambil melepas jaket yang selalu menemaniku mencari rupiah. "Kalau gak ada ya udah, gak apa-apa. Paling Bapakmu teriak-teriak kalau lagi kumat karena obatnya habis!" ucap Ibu sambil berlalu pergi. Aku tahu Ibu pasti kecewa, lalu bagaimana lagi, aku sudah berusaha keras, dalam hati aku merasa gagal. Uang sebesar lima ratus ribu saja tidak mampu aku cari. Mungkin bagi orang lain tidak seberapa, tapi untukku yang hanya berprofesi sebagai ojek online uang lima ratus ribu sangatlah besar. Apalagi akhir-akhir ini orderan sangat sepi tidak seperti biasanya. Aku duduk termenung di atas sofa lusuh, mataku menatap tiga bingkai besar yang terpajang di dinding, foto ketiga Kakakku saat wisuda. Mereka terlihat sangat gagah dengan toga yang dipakainya

The night before my fiancé, Soren, and I were supposed to leave for Northern Europe to start our new life, the sounds of a lively discussion drifted from his private club. "Christ, Boss, are you insane? Why the sudden marriage alliance with the Rosetti family to make a play for Italy? Didn't you say you were getting out of the life with Abby and heading north?" Soren leaned back into a leather sofa, his voice nonchalant and muffled by a cloud of smoke. "Plans change. Besides, remember, I'm the one who made her who she is." "Once she sees the new empire I'm building, that little canary will come flying right back to my cage. The woman can't live without me." I stood in the shadows of the club, a wine glass in my hand, a dull ache blooming in my chest. The anniversary gift I had so carefully chosen for Soren was still in my purse, waiting for me to give it to him. I slipped out of the smoke-filled club, tossed the gift into the nearest trash can, and booked a one-way ticket to Northern Europe. But what he didn't know was that just as he could betray our future for Monica, I could abandon him for mine. All those years we spent dancing with death were never just for his sake.

"Heh, Alya! Jangan kamu pikir kamu bisa selamanya bersama Rama! Bagaimanapun Rama harus punya keturunan. Apa kamu gak kasihan sama dia? Setidaknya biarkan dia menikah lagi dan memiliki anak kandung!" Apa-apaan ini! Apa yang baru saja Alya dengar? Apakah seperti itu sikap seorang mertua untuk menengahi masalah rumah tangga putranya? Apakah itu memang jalan keluar terbaik untuk rumah tangganya dengan Rama? Meskipun begitu, setidaknya bukankah semua keputusan ada di tangan Alya ataupun Rama sebagai suami istri? Mengapa Ibu Mertuanya itu seolah dia orang yang memegang semua kendali? Sementara itu. Mayang memanglah wanita tak tahu malu yang akan segera mengambil kesempatan jika memang memiliki peluang. Dia melangkahkan kakinya menuju sofa, dan mendengar kebisingan dari arah dapur. Sementara itu dia melihat betapa tampannya paras Rama saat hanya memakai pakaian rumah. Celana denim pendek, dan kaos polos hitam. Serta rambut yang sedikit acak-acakan. Pesona Rama benar-benar membuat janda tanpa anak ini tergila-gila padanya. Lalu... Apa yang harus Alya lakukan kepada Ibu Mertua dan Pelakor yang selalu menjadi parasit dalam rumah tangganya bersama Mas Rama? Apakah Alya akan mengizinkan suaminya untuk menikah lagi dengan wanita lain?

"Logan, just give me some sleeping pills. I haven’t had a decent night’s sleep in weeks," Xavier said to his psychiatrist and childhood friend. "You don’t need sleeping pills, Xavier. What you need is a break. How about taking ten days off on a cruise?" Dr. Logan Pierce suggested. "You know how much money I can make in ten days? And you want me to waste it sitting idle on a boat? Every minute I’m off that ship is costing me." "That’s exactly why you need it. The world will survive without you for ten days. Maybe you’ll realize you can, too." "But…" Xavier protested. "Xavier, sleeping pills won’t help this time. You’re becoming too dependent on them, and I’m not prescribing more. If you want your sleep back, take a break—a cruise vacation will do the trick." "Fine. But if this doesn’t work, I’m never listening to you again." "Deal. Now, go pack. And leave your laptop at home." Little did Xavier know that these ten days on the cruise would bring him a surprise. Girlfriend? No. Memories? No. Friends? No. Then what? Twins... Now, Xavier doesn’t need sleeping pills to sleep—just a sofa with no noise. The only purpose of Xavier’s life now is to find a mother for the twins.

“Valerie.” My head snapped up at the sound of my name. The Alpha was standing by the sofa, unbuttoning the neck of his coat. “Come,” he said. “We don’t have much time.” Much time? For what? A chill moved up my arms. I wouldn’t dare ask—not that I needed to. I was not an innocent child anymore. All of my training had been for this moment. There was only one reason why werewolves purchased young, human virgins. Sex. I was a slave. A pet. And my master could do whatever he pleased with me. _________ When the war started. They fought. They slaughtered. We were nearly wiped out on the earth. Surviving humans were classified into three categories: free humans, Servants, and Slaves. My name is Valerie Davis. My parents were accused of committing a crime against the creatures in the war. After their execution, I was captured and sent to the cell as a human slave. I lived in that cell for years before I was transported to a Slave Shop, where I would be picked by a Master. It was during the dry season when I was put in the display box. I wasn't afraid like the other girls, because I was unwanted for my weirdness. I was despised for being the criminals’ daughter. I was lucky, as the masters wouldn’t want to lay a finger on me. But then the Alpha came. When he looked at me, he said he want me. ___________________________ Daily Update!
