Ust Hospital

August is back on Earth. After her almost-death experience in Pandora, she’s now living a normal life and trying to forget the painful memories. She thought she will never see him again, not until Cayden’s face appeared right in front of her with a different identity.

The Blood Moon Feast was over. I was delivering the synthetic blood supplement I'd developed for the vampire lord, Evander, when he suddenly threw me to the ground. "Give it to me... I want you..." His crimson eyes burned with desperate hunger. My face flushed. I thought he finally understood the love I held for him. So I let him sink his fangs into my neck. I let him form a blood bond with me—a human. I wanted eternity with him. But when I woke up, Evander's eyes were filled with shock and regret. It wasn't love. Just an uncontrollable frenzy from his once-a-century bloodlust curse. And now it was too late. A human bonded to an ancient vampire suffers excruciating, soul-tearing pain. To forcibly break the bond? A death sentence. Evander chose to honor it. He owed me—I'd saved his life once in the human world. But everything changed when Odette died. His true love, waiting centuries to bond with him. When she learned of our union, she shattered—left the City of Eternal Night alone and walked into an ambush by rogue hunters. They burned her to ash. When his family brought back the only thing left—a moonstone pendant—Evander's hands closed around my throat. "This was your plan all along, wasn't it? You trapped me in this bond. Then you conspired with hunters to kill Odette. Go to hell and apologize to her yourself!" He ripped the bond from me, tearing away the very blood that kept me alive. A day and a night of agony as my organs ruptured. Then I died. When I opened my eyes again, I was back. Back to the night his curse erupted.

Menjelang hari pernikahan, aku mengalami kecelakaan mobil hingga terluka parah dan koma. Tunanganku langsung membatalkan pernikahan dan menikahi sahabat masa kecilnya. Ibuku mencari tunanganku untuk menuntut keadilan, tapi di tengah jalan dia mengalami kecelakaan dan meninggal dengan tragis. Di saat genting, teman masa kecilku berlutut dengan satu kaki di depan pintu rumah sakit, memberikan uang dua miliar sebagai mas kawin dan mengurus pemakaman ibuku. Aku berhasil dioperasi, meskipun harus mengalami cacat seumur hidup. Namun, teman masa kecilku berjanji akan merawatku seumur hidup. Tersentuh oleh ketulusannya, aku pun menikah dengannya. Namun, lima tahun kemudian, aku mendengar percakapannya dengan sang sekretaris. "Pak Johan demi membuat Nona Shenina bisa menikahi pria yang dia cintai, Anda menyuruh orang menabrak Nyonya hingga cacat seumur hidup. Anda nggak takut dia akan mengetahuinya?" "Demi Shenina, apa yang nggak bisa kulakukan? Aku sudah menyerahkan sisa hidupku untuk menebus Lina, masih belum cukupkah?" Aku menutup mulut dan menahan isak tangis. Barulah sekarang aku mengerti, ternyata pernikahan kami selama ini hanyalah sebuah kebohongan. Jika seperti itu, lebih baik aku menghilang dan menyerahkan tempatku kepada wanita yang dia cintai.

Elesi is a typical Omega, and very much a background character in some larger romance that would be about the Alpha and his chosen mate being thrown off track by his return with a 'fated mate' causing the pack to go into quite the tizzy.

Come find out alongside the clueless Elesi as she is thrusted into the fate of her pack. Who thought a background character's life would be so dramatic?

I gave my full support when my father decided to set aside $2.1 billion in trust funds for his three illegitimate kids. Things had been very different in my previous life. At the time, the company urgently needed capital for a new project, and I had convinced my father to postpone setting up the trusts. I never imagined the three of them would take it as an attempt to seize the family fortune for myself. Furious, they went street racing to vent their anger. The result was a fatal crash. The car was destroyed, and none of them survived. Under my leadership, the company continued to grow at an astonishing pace and eventually secured a place on the Fortune Global 500 list. Yet on the very day I received the title of Young Entrepreneur of the Year, my father got me drunk and ordered my limbs broken. As I lay there screaming in agony, I demanded to know why he was doing this to me. His reply was filled with venom as he crushed my fingers one after another. "If you hadn't been so greedy for the inheritance, Ethan and the others wouldn't have gone out to clear their heads. They never would have died in that crash." In the end, my father beat me to death. When my critically ill mother learned the truth, the shock took her life as well. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the very day my father decided to establish the trust.

She thought he was a spoiled, cold billionaire. He thought she was just a waitress. Neither of them expected the chaos that would follow. When tough, independent Lena Carter crosses paths with Rafael Blackthorne—an infuriatingly arrogant billionaire known for his playboy reputation—sparks fly, tempers flare… and everything changes. After offering her a job that pulls her into his elite world, Rafael quickly realizes Lena is unlike anyone he’s ever met. She challenges him, grounds him, and sees through the walls he’s built. But behind his wealth and power lies a man scarred by a distant family and buried secrets. And behind her strength, Lena hides a past that refuses to stay buried—especially when a dangerous ex resurfaces, watching from the shadows. As the two fall into a whirlwind of passion, luxury, and vulnerability, they’ll have to decide: will love be enough to protect them from what’s coming? Because in Rafael’s world, trust is currency… And someone’s about to cash it in.

I was once the pack's strongest beta. I broke my wolf saving my mate, Alpha Damon. I lost my hearing. I lost our mind link. But Damon never treated me like I was broken. He learned sign language for me. He made sure the whole pack respected me as their Luna. Our daughter was sweet and perfect. She always showed me how much she loved me. Then one day, it happened. My hearing returned. The mind link snapped back into place. I was so excited. I wanted to tell Damon and Lily at the full moon ceremony. Instead, I heard them. Lily, my precious daughter, talking to Damon on our link. "Daddy, the cripple is still carrying my brother. When can we bring Momma Elara home? I want her to be our real Luna!" That’s when I knew. My daughter. The son in my womb. They were never mine. They belonged to Elara. Elara was a half-breed omega. She couldn't carry an Alpha’s pups. I was just a surrogate. A living incubator. Damon fed me poison to make me barren. Then he used black magic to implant his lover's child inside me. I trembled. Tears streamed down my face. Damon betrayed me. I would burn his entire world to ash. Then, I would vanish from his life forever.

In the second year of my marriage to Jeffery Sadler, he brought a young woman home. When his eyes met mine, Jeffery smiled carelessly and said, "Naomi, perhaps you should try it too." He added, "After all, young and energetic people are truly different." I knew he was only testing me; he had always enjoyed tormenting and toying with me. But what he didn't know was that this time, I was genuinely tempted. Later, as he stared at the fresh scratch marks on the "young person's" waist and abdomen, his eyes blazed red with anger. "Naomi Sloan," he growled, “Who gave you the audacity to actually take this seriously?”

Nang makapagtapos si Charm ng kolehiyo sa England, bumalik agad siya ng Pilipinas para surpresahin ang kapatid na si Clara. Ngunit laking gulat niya nang matuklasan niyang apat na taon nang patay ang kanyang kapatid, at wala siyang ideya tungkol dito, at hindi rin ito ipinaalam sa kaniya ng mga kamag-anak nila. Kaya naman, nag-imbestiga siya tungkol sa nangyari sa kanya. Marami ang nagsasabi na ito ay nagpakamatay, ngunit naniniwala siya na hindi kailanman iisipin ni Clara na magpakamatay, at sa tingin niya ay kusa siyang pinatay. Hindi siya tumigil sa paghahanap at pagresolba sa krimen hanggang sa napagtanto niyang may tatlong lalaki na hinihinalang pumatay sa kanyang kapatid. Pero hindi lang sila ordinaryong tao na pwedeng lapitan at kausapin. Kaya, ang tanging naiisip niya ay ang pasukin ang kanilang misteryosong buhay. Plano niyang akitin ang tatlong lalaki na alamin ang katotohanan sa likod ng biglaang pagkamatay ng kanyang kapatid. Magtatagumpay kaya siya sa kanyang mga plano kung malalaman niya kung gaano kadelikado ang mga taong haharapin niya, o magagawa ba niyang itago ang tunay niyang pagkatao nang hindi nahuhuli ng mga ito?
