The Magnificent Halo Novels & Stories

Naomi Belle was raised in the shadows—an elite assassin whose name alone made the underworld flinch. But after uncovering the truth about her stolen past, and a slight problem, she walks away from blood and darkness to return home… only to discover her parents are alive and she has an overprotective brother who think she’s an angel. Unfortunately, Naomi’s idea of “gentle and well-behaved” involves resisting the urge to snap necks when irritated. Keeping her secret identity hidden is hard enough—until a nosy, sharp-eyed businessman named Stephen Smith literally catches her red-handed. Instead of exposing her, Stephen starts teasing his way into her double life—and her guarded heart. His relentless humor, maddening charm, and inconveniently golden personality chip away at Naomi’s killer instincts, one smirk at a time. But love doesn’t erase danger. The underworld hasn’t forgotten its deadliest recruit, and Naomi’s family and Stephen become perfect leverage. Between keeping her halo straight for her brother and hiding a gun under her cardigan, Naomi will have to decide which identity to protect—and who she’s willing to kill for when both worlds collide.

Pada hari ketiga dinas di luar provinsi, grup WhatsApp wali murid putraku yang sudah lama sepi tiba-tiba kedatangan seorang anggota baru. Saat aku mengeklik pesan suara yang dikirimnya, terdengar suara wanita yang asing dan manis. "Halo semuanya, saya guru bahasa Indonesia baru di sekolah ini, sekaligus ibunya Daniel. Mohon bimbingannya, semuanya!" Seluruh tubuhku kaku. Aku mengeklik daftar anggota grup dan membandingkannya berulang kali. Putraku bernama Daniel. Dia adalah ibu Daniel, lalu aku ini siapa? Aku segera menelepon suamiku, "Apa ada orang yang salah masuk ke grup wali murid anak kita?" Di ujung telepon, suaranya sempat terhenti sejenak, lalu dia tertawa seolah tidak terjadi apa-apa. "Oh, mungkin salah masuk. Ada banyak anak di sekolah, nama yang sama itu wajar. Ada apa memangnya?" Aku menjawab tidak ada apa-apa sambil tersenyum. Namun, setelah menutup telepon, malam itu juga aku langsung memesan tiket pesawat dan terbang menuju sekolah putraku.

During the pack's wilderness training, my adopted sister, Tessa, shoved me from a cliffside thick with wolfsbane. My Alpha, Fenrir, turned and left with Tessa feigning injury in his arms, leaving me for dead at the bottom of the ravine. I died instantly, but my soul lingered, watching everything with cold detachment. I watched as Tessa's tearful complaints swayed him into blaming me for my own disappearance. "Will Selene ever stop causing me trouble?" "She's weak and always looking for trouble. How could she possibly be fit to be our Luna?" He had no idea I was already dead at the bottom of that cliff choked with wolfsbane. Five whole days. The poison hit my bloodstream like liquid fire, racing through my veins with merciless speed. As my body decayed under the moonlight, my love for him faded with it. The title of Luna, the magnificent coronation I had dreamed of, everything I once cherished was now meaningless. The Selene who loved him was well and truly dead.

Aku sudah menjadi penyiar radio larut malam selama sepuluh tahun. Telepon terakhir sebelum program itu dihentikan adalah dengan seorang mahasiswi. "Halo, Bu Eirene, aku merasa sangat tersiksa. Aku jatuh cinta pada dosen universitasku sendiri. Meskipun dia sudah nikah, dia memperlakukanku dengan sangat spesial." "Waktu aku sakit, dia masak untukku. Waktu aku sedih, dia temani aku ngobrol sampai larut malam, ngajak aku jalan-jalan untuk tenangin pikiran ...." Setelah mendengarkannya dengan sabar, aku perlahan membuka mulut untuk menenangkan, "Memiliki perasaan kagum pada lawan jenis yang luar biasa itu sangat normal, tapi yang paling penting sekarang adalah menyelesaikan kuliahmu." "Sebenarnya, waktu SMA aku juga pernah diam-diam menyukai guru magang. Sampai akhirnya bertemu suamiku, barulah aku tahu seperti apa cinta yang dewasa itu. Semoga di masa depan kamu juga bisa bertemu orang yang benar-benar tepat untukmu." Gadis itu tertawa pelan dengan nada yang sulit dimengerti. "Aku iri sekali padamu, istri dosenku."

In a tale woven with both love and obsession, Adele Romero believed she had mended her shattered heart when she delivered a flower to the grand mansion. Little did she realize that her actions had already captured his attention. He was known as the mysterious figure, harboring a dark obsession that consumed him completely. The lingering desires from their shared past and the chance at redemption compelled him to entrap her in his grasp. This time, he was ready to script their story with spilled blood and possessive intent, and she remained oblivious to his true identity. "Have you ever felt the touch of a rose?" he whispered, his silhouette looming before her. "Yes," she replied, her voice quivering with anticipation. "Each petal holds its own unique allure, painted with shades that evoke fascination. And when you press it against your lips, it imparts a magnificent sensation," his voice husky and laden with desire. In that sacred moment, she felt his lips graze her skin. "You, Adele, are like a rose." "And I yearn to crush this rose beneath the weight of my insatiable craving."

Setelah terlalu banyak bekerja, aku jatuh sakit dan akhirnya masuk rumah sakit. Di samping ranjang pasien, putraku yang sudah diterima di universitas bergengsi malah menelepon dengan gembira. “Halo?

“A ruthless man he was, wore a halo of insanity. He made death dance on his fingers like a puppet, wings of obsession made him soar high in cruelty.

“Halo .... “ “Lyn, kamu ada di mana? Aku berkali-kali menghubungimu. Dan aku juga sudah mencarimu ke kamarmu, tapi kamu tidak ada di sana,” ucap pria dari seberang sana membuat Aurelyn mengernyitkan dahinya. Aurelyn mengenal suara di seberang sana. Sampai membuat matanya terbuka lebar. “Aveiro?” “Ya, ini aku. Kamu pikir siapa lagi, sebenarnya kamu ke mana, Lyn?” tanya Aveiro dari seberang sana. “A-aku?” Aurelyn berusaha mengingat jelas kejadian semalam, tapi dari tubuh polosnya, dia tahu kalau percintaan semalam bukanlah mimpi. Aurelyn pikir, yang menghabiskan malam bersamanya adalah Aveiro. “Kalau ini Aveiro, lalu siapa pria yang bersamaku semalam?” batin Aurelyn. Detak jantung Aurelyn pun langsung berdetak tidak karuan. Ada yang aneh dengan semua ini, dengan cepat, Aurelyn menoleh ke sisinya, dan di saat itu juga seolah dunia telah runtuh dan menimpanya saat melihat pria yang tidur di sampingnya adalah Zephyr Orion Clovis. Kakak tiri dari Jefrin Clovis, tokoh utama di pesta semalam. “Ba-bagaimana mungkin?” pekiknya dalam hati sambil menutup mulutnya sendiri. #fb: Indriani_Sonaris

Growing up to become a rejected, is nothing anyone would pray or wish to encounter. Ember, who is caught up in the deep web of rejection and unplanned love, is left in the ocean of self destruction. Now, she'd have to think about the best way to be free and leave her life. In the middle of the island, the gigantic and luxurious castle of Alpha Dino Aloysius, is located. Sources say that it is the most expensive and sophisticated home facility in the entire world. Every facility in the home, is controlled by advanced technology and robots. The center of the castle looks like a another universe of its own because of the magnificent design that surrounded it. At the north west end of the castle, a large statue of a wolf can be seen. To every other person, it was just a wolf but to Alpha Dino, it was his representation of strength and power. Each of the rooms are sound proof and designed with a colored marble. The walls are discretely painted with black and red colour ink, and also the blood of some of the people that Alpha Dino has killed in past, especially the alphas from other packs. The staff that worked inside the castle, were more than a thousand. You must literally see a maiden at every end of castle, bending down their head. The reason was that it was prohibited to make eye contact with the Alpha.
