What Does Love At First Sight Mean

Elena Adiningrat adalah definisi dari keanggunan old money. Namun, dalam satu malam, dunianya yang berporos pada galeri seni dan pesta eksklusif runtuh ketika kerajaan bisnis ayahnya dinyatakan bangkrut. Dengan sisa martabat yang ia miliki, Elena memutuskan untuk terbang ke Paris menggunakan tiket First Class terakhirnya—sebuah pelarian mewah untuk meratapi hidupnya sebelum ia harus menghadapi kenyataan pahit. Di kursi 1A, ia bertemu dengan Aiden Valerick, CEO dari Valerick Group yang dikenal sebagai pria berhati baja dengan selera yang sangat mahal. Aiden membenci gangguan, terutama dari wanita yang tampak rapuh. Namun, selama belasan jam di atas awan, dalam ruang privat yang intim dan mewah, percakapan intelektual serta ketegangan yang tak terjelaskan mulai meruntuhkan dinding es di antara mereka. Bagi Aiden, Elena adalah teka-teki estetika yang sempurna. Bagi Elena, Aiden adalah predator bisnis yang akan melahap apa pun yang tersisa dari keluarganya. Takdir membawa mereka lebih jauh dari sekadar teman satu penerbangan. Sekembalinya mereka ke daratan, Aiden menawarkan sebuah kesepakatan: Elena harus menjadi kurator seni pribadinya untuk memulihkan citra perusahaan—sekaligus menjadi tunangan sandiwara untuk memadamkan pemberontakan di dewan direksi. Dari gemerlap lampu penthouse di Jakarta hingga lantai dansa di Monaco, Elena dan Aiden terjebak dalam permainan kekuasaan yang elegan. Di balik balutan gaun sutra pesanan khusus dan jam tangan bernilai miliaran, ada rahasia masa lalu dan pengkhianatan yang mengintai. Di dunia High Society yang kejam, mereka harus memilih: mempertahankan takhta masing-masing atau menyerah pada takdir yang telah mempertemukan mereka di kelas utama.

And a college student in 2E, hungry to escape an ignored life of invisible anonymity, finds herself captured between the pages of a ravenous book. All thrown into their own private hell as every cruel choice, every drop of spilled blood, every silent, complicit moment of cowardice is remembered, resurrected and relived to feed the ancient evil that lives on Eidolon Avenue. ©️ Crystal Lake Publishing

At the banquet hall, I refuse to let my adopted twin pups eat the walnut cake. Ivana Lamont—the childhood sweetheart of my mate, Luther Hardwick—chokes up dramatically. She cries accusingly, "Yara, they may not be yours biologically, but you can't abuse them! Why won't you even let them have a slice of cake?" I'm just about to explain that the twins are allergic to nuts, but they point at me and complain in aggrieved voices. "Mommy often doesn't give us food. We never have enough to eat!" With that, I'm unceremoniously driven out of the banquet hall by the host. When I go to look for my mate to talk about it, I accidentally overhear his conversation with a friend. "Alpha Luther, it's been eight years. Are you still not going to mark Yara?" "There's no rush. I'll wait until the kids are a little older. We love each other very much, so it's fine even if I don't mark her." His friend responds disapprovingly, "You've been hiding from her that the twins are actually your and Ivana's pups. Aren't you afraid she may leave in anger if she finds out?" Luther shakes his head and replies with certainty, "She won't. Yara is an orphan, so she has no family. If she leaves me, where else can she go?" The ugly truth causes me to freeze on the spot. It turns out the pups I've loved for eight years were born to my mate and another she-wolf. What I thought was a happy life is nothing but a cold, heartless deception! I touch my belly, thinking of the pup I just conceived. My tears fall like a relentless downpour. In the shadows, I say inaudibly, "You're wrong, Luther. In fact, I found my birth parents three days ago. I just haven't had the chance to tell you. But it doesn't matter now because you don't need to know about that anymore." I have Luther sign the mate bond dissolution agreement before finalizing my withdrawal from the Sharp Teeth pack. Two days later, I give both my mate and the pups to Ivana. With the pup that Luther has never known or laid his eyes on, I disappear from his world forever.
