Lebih gilanya lagi permintaan ini bukan karena perselingkuhan ataupun aku menyukai lelaki tersebut. Tapi, istri sahnya sendiri yang mendatangi dan memintaku untuk menjadi madunya. Aku terpaksa menyetujuinya bukan karena aku kekurangan harta atau rawan jatuh miskin. Tapi, karena satu perkataan yang terlontar dari mulut Athan Vasaya Balazs.

Jadi bagaimana aku harus menjalani pernikahanku? Haruskah cukup dengan prinsip dasar tadi, ataukah akan muncul benih cinta dan perasaan di antara kami?

She went on an escapade and this led her into the arms of the one man that promised to make her life a living hell. Professor Simon Beaumont. Simon Beaumont was a menace.

I loved Alpha Lucien Grey with all my heart. From the moment I first saw him, I was drawn to him. However, I always knew the one Lucien loved was someone else. Her name was Summer White. I thought I’d be like one of those tragic side characters in romance stories—forever on the sidelines, watching the man I loved build a life with another woman. However, everything changed three years ago when Summer ran away on the night of the marking ceremony, saying she wasn’t ready to be claimed. Lucien had to make a decision and announced he would find a new partner. So, I stepped forward. Wearing a dress that didn’t quite fit, my hands trembling, I stood in for Summer. That day, Lucien and I formed a bond as mates. For the past three years, Lucien had treated me with warmth and kindness. He was gentle and thoughtful. He took care of me in every way. However, just over a month ago, Summer came back to our pack. On the night of our anniversary, she got drunk and called Lucien in tears, sobbing that she regretted everything. Lucien’s hands were shaking so hard he almost dropped his phone, but he didn’t hang up. He just stood there, torn. When his eyes met mine, full of confusion and pain, I took his hand—still trembling—and said softly, “Go to her.” The moment he left, I filed the mate-bond termination papers at City Hall, requesting to break the bond. After all, these years of stolen happiness were never really mine to keep. It was time for me to leave, too.

WARNING: MATURE CONTENT | R-18 This night. . . I made you mine. I bestowed you power, and immortality. I am now your god and you'll serve me forever, Avery Raven. *** Avery is a brave police officer, who is committed to her job. She served her city with honesty-never allowing herself to be subjugated to corrupt government officials until a powerful head of a syndicate sent men to murder her. She woke up the night after she was killed with vague memories. She thinks it's a miracle that she's alive after being hounded to death. Unbeknownst to her, she has been subjected to a curse from which she cannot escape, and she must live according to its nature, even against her will, while seeking the beast that has doomed her to such life. However, that was short-lived when bloodsucker creatures ravaged her city; flooding it with blood and littering it with dead bodies. People experienced hell as those monsters continued plundering and captivating humans until she was the only one left alive. She survived, or perhaps she did so on purpose. Because he, the darkness, had her do what their kind did that night: slaughter and suck blood.
