Yosano Akiko

The crazy and sweet life of four high school boys whose lives are filled with several twist & turns and uncovered secrets.

Akiko Eloise adalah gadis yang menderita penyakit kanker darah, sejak kecil dia selalu dibenci orang tuanya dan sering kali mendapat kekerasan fisik sampai tubuhnya penuh dengan luka. Akhirnya, Akiko harus menjadi tawanan seorang mafia kejam yang akan menghancurkan perusahaan keluarganya, yaitu Glen Xander Mckenzie. Namun, Glen justru jatuh cinta pada mangsanya sendiri. “Pria tidak punya hati sepertimu … apakah bisa jatuh cinta?” tanya Akiko saat mengetahui bahwa Glen menaruh perasaan padanya. “Kenapa tanganmu selalu dingin? Kau juga jarang sekali makan, aku tidak ingin kau sakit,” Glen berusaha mengalihkan pembicaraan karena tidak suka membahas soal perasaannya sendiri. Akiko menatap pria yang mulai fokus menyetir. “Aku sudah sakit, Glen. Sudah dari dulu.” Gadis berambut pendek itu bingung, apakah dia perlu memberitahu Glen bahwa dia punya penyakit kanker? Apakah pria itu akan peduli setelah sekian lama menyiksanya? Bagaimana reaksi Glen saat tahu bahwa hidup Akiko tidak akan lama lagi?

  "You are clearly a disgusting whore for having slept with your own uncle!" *** Akiko never wanted to cause trouble, especially with her cruel mother-in-law, who would easily scold and insult her, even for the smallest mistakes. But disaster struck, when Akiko was trying to calm down at her uncle's house. Somehow, Akiko ended up under the same blanket as Kenji, her father's younger brother. Akiko's uncle had been caring for her since she was eight years old, following the death of her parents. At that time, Akiko was eight, and Kenji was twenty. Kenji's marriage fell apart immediately, and Akiko's situation wasn't much better, as her mother-in-law would never forgive that act. Akiko was cast out without being able to explain everything to Yuto—her husband. With no other choice, Akiko returned to live with her uncle. But her life did not become easier after that. Akiko had to endure shame and disgrace, and also Kenji's increasingly strange behavior. He once gentle and caring uncle often became harsh. What secret is Kenji hiding that has caused him to change so drastically? Can Akiko repair her marriage? Or will she choose a forbidden path that she should not take?

He wants revenge, but he found a reason to protect. She was supposed to be his pawn… but she became his weakness, his obsession, his everything. Akiko Eloise has known nothing but pain. Abandoned by her parents, scarred by violence, and secretly battling leukemia, she has long accepted that her life is a slow countdown with no happy ending. But when she’s taken prisoner by Glen Xander McKenzie—a ruthless Mafia boss out for revenge on her family—her fate takes a sharp, terrifying turn. Glen is cold, calculated, and dangerous… but something about that girl began to stir something in him. Something dangerously close to feeling. And the more he learns about Akiko—her strength, her scars, her fading time—the harder it becomes to let her go. Will it change him—or destroy them both?
