The Proposal By Anton Chekhov

Sebuah kencan buta yang seharusnya membawa cinta, justru menyeret Alessia Concetta ke dalam luka—dan sahabatnya, Bianca Costanza, ke dalam pusaran bahaya yang tak pernah ia bayangkan. Saat berusaha membela sahabatnya, Bianca tanpa sengaja menampar pria paling ditakuti di Italia Utara—Lucca Vincenze, sang Don dari Il Trono del Nord. Bukannya dendam, Lucca justru terpikat oleh keberanian Bianca. Tapi pesona Lucca bukan hal yang mudah ditolak, terlebih saat ia menggunakan kekuasaan untuk menjerat Bianca dalam permainan yang tak adil. Ancaman demi ancaman mulai datang. Termasuk dari seorang wanita misterius yang memperingatkan Bianca agar menjauh dari Lucca—dengan ancaman nyawa sebagai taruhannya. Terdesak, Bianca memutuskan untuk meminta bantuan pada pria yang sebelumnya ia tantang: Lucca. Namun ketika identitas wanita pengancam itu terungkap, Bianca harus menerima kenyataan pahit—pengkhianatan terbesar datang dari orang yang paling ia percaya. Dalam dunia yang dipenuhi kekuasaan, rahasia, dan intrik, mampukah Bianca bertahan tanpa kehilangan dirinya sendiri?

📖 Full Synopsis (Professional, 30-Chapter Summary) In a realm where the abyss bleeds whispers into men’s hearts, Aria, a gifted warrior bound to light, finds herself tethered to Lucien, a man scarred by an ancient mark. Their alliance begins in unease but quickly deepens into fragile trust, even as shadows stir within him. As armies clash and kingdoms fracture, Rowan, the enigmatic elder, and Kael, a fierce commander, fight to keep their ranks united. Yet Lucien’s mark grows restless, seeding betrayal, suspicion, and fear. Aria stands at his side, convinced that his humanity can be preserved, while others believe the abyss has already claimed him. The march to war spirals. Battles scar the land, alliances fray, and Lucien’s struggle becomes the fulcrum of fate. In the Breaking Storm, shadow and flame engulf the battlefield. Lucien teeters on the edge of becoming a weapon of the abyss. Aria refuses to yield, her voice anchoring him even as his blade rises against her. Kael’s blood is spilled in defiance, Rowan binds the storm in desperate runes, and Aria steps into the abyss itself, whispering her vow. In the climax, Lucien shatters his own blade, breaking free from the darkness—but not without scars. The storm collapses, leaving silence in its wake. In the aftermath, enemies bury their dead side by side. Kael rebuilds broken ranks, Rowan warns that the abyss never releases its scars, and Aria tends to Lucien’s healing—both body and soul. Though the mark lingers faintly beneath his skin, her vow holds stronger: never again will the abyss take him. The book closes on dawn: the storm passed, the stars returned, and two hands held fast against the dark.

Blurb. Julliette Mercer swore she would never risk her career for a man. As the new sports therapist for the NHL’s most ruthless team, the Blackridge Wolves, she expects bruises, injuries, and egos the size of the rink.

And the most dangerous thing she can do is love them back. Julliete is caught between ruin and ecstasy. To resist them is impossible. To surrender might cost her everything.

Years passed, the Academy went well. A war that happened five years ago that was forgotten. No one remembers except the Royal Families. Five years have passed, the said princess of the prophecy was never been found. The last magus user of the forgotten Empire in Azaleus, the Zaffiro Empire. The Magic Realm went well but not the other Realm. The Astral Realm, where werewolves exist. In Magic Realm, werewolves are just a myth, it doesn't exist. A myth that everyone knows. Until it happened. Sa kabilang panig ng mundo, nagkakagulo ang mga mamayanan ng Amavasya. Ang Amavasya ang lugar kung saan naninirahan ang mga lobo sa mundo ng Astral. Sa kabilang panig naman ay ang mga itim na mangkukulam ang naninirahan sa lugar ng Hexe. Mainit ang dugo sa bawat panig na naninirahan sa mundo ng Astral. Matagal ng gustong makamit ng mga sorcière ang buong Astral ngunit pilit na nilalaban sila ng mga Lykos. Naging sakim ang mga sorciere lalo na noong nalaman nila ang naka saad sa propesiya na may isang sanggol na may dugong bampira at lobo ang mag hahari sa buong Astral na walang sino mang nilalang ang makakahigit doon. Isang balita na nagdulot sa mga sorciere upang patayin ang mga bagong silang na sanggol.

Ngunit nag bago ang lahat ng malaman nilang isang bampira ang binigay ng Diyos ng Buwan na maging kabiyak ng kanilang Alpha. Isang bampira na may dugong bughaw. Pero imbis na itakwil nila ito, tinanggap nila ito ng buong puso at pinangakuang poprotektahan nila ito hanggang sa huling hininga. Ang bampirang lobo sa mundo ng Astral.

Akala ko tapos na ang gabi. Tahimik na ang buong bahay, pero hindi ang dibdib ko. Kagagaling lang namin sa isang party—hosted by his mother. Ang daming tao. Ang daming mata. Pero kahit na ipinakilala niya akong secretary lang, ramdam ko ang pag-aangkin sa bawat sulyap niya. Lalo na nang may lalaking lumapit sa akin. Lalo na nang ngumiti ako, kahit sandali. Doon ko siya nakita—yung paninigas ng panga, ang lalim ng tingin na parang babagsak ang langit. Kaya hindi na ako nagulat nang may kumatok. Malakas. Walang pasintabi. Pagbukas ko ng pinto, naroon siya. Si Cayden. Nakatayo sa dilim, may halong galit at silakbo sa mukha. Hindi siya nagsalita agad—dumiretso siya sa loob, isinara ang pinto, at hinila ako papunta sa kama. “Cayden, what are you—stop!” Nagpumiglas ako. Umiwas. Pero hinigpitan niya ang hawak sa braso ko. Lumuhod siya sa kama, pinilit akong mapahiga. At saka siya bumulong, malamig ang boses, pero parang nasusunog ako sa bawat salita. “Tonight, whether you like it or not… I’m going to claim you.” Nanlaki ang mata ko. Hindi ito tanong. Hindi ito pakiusap. Ito ang utos ng isang lalaking hindi kailanman tinanggihan. Hindi siya aalis. Hindi siya titigil. At ngayong gabi— Tatatakan niya ako ng pangalan niya. Kahit hindi ako handa.
