ฉลาม (ลวงรัก) 20+

Camilla Hart’s life is small but warm, filled with early mornings with her best friend Anya and caring for her sick aunt Roseline. An encounter with an arrogant stranger that she spilled coffee, will change everything. That same stranger, Adrian Harrington, a billionaire CEO, shows up at her big presentation. Impressed, he offers her a job as his personal assistant. Camilla is thrown into a world of glass walls, power games, and sharp eyes that never stop watching. Her desk sits just a glass wall away from Adrian Harrington’s — the arrogant billionaire she can’t escape from him. Everything changed when Adrian puts a contract in front of her: one year as his wife. No intimacy, no questions, no strings. In return, her aunt’s surgery will be paid for, and 20 million dollars . Cornered, Camilla signs. A dinner party with Adrian’s powerful family push her to her limits.Eleanor, Adrian's grandmother looks down on her because of her background, his father shows kindness, and just when she starts finding her place, Adrian’s childhood sweetheart, Celine, comes back to claim him. Jealousy simmers, sparks ignite, and the “rules” of their marriage start to break. Between late-night arguments, almost-kisses, and truths they’re too afraid to say , something real grows. But just as Camilla begins to trust what’s happening between them, her world is rocked: her long-lost father returns, wealthy and powerful, carrying secrets that turn her life upside down. When the contract ends, Camilla walks away, determined to stand on her own. But Adrian won’t let her go. In front of both families, at an engagement party no one saw coming, he makes his choice clear: what started as a deal on paper has become the only promise that matters.

The night I have my bonding ceremony with the Alpha, Walter Zimmer, he gets drunk even though he usually never touches any alcohol. Just as I'm at a loss for what to do, my best friend, Rose Larson, sends me a message detailing how to take care of a drunken werewolf. Despite feeling doubtful, I do as she suggests, and Walter truly does fall asleep peacefully. Just as I'm about to thank Rose, Walter suddenly hugs me from behind. His hot breath brushes against my neck as he murmurs a sentence that utterly breaks my heart. "Rose, you're the one I wanted to mark…" My world crumbles around me, but that's not all. His shirt slips down his shoulder when he moves, revealing the rose tattooed right over his heart. My mind goes blank, and all I can do is stare at the tattoo. I refuse to believe what I'm seeing. I've known Rose for 20 years, and she's my closest friend. As it turns out, Walter didn't get drunk because he was overjoyed about becoming my mate. He simply used the alcohol to drown his sorrows over not being able to take the she-wolf he wanted as his Luna. In that moment, our newly formed mate bond seems like nothing but a joke. Since that's the case, I decide to give up my position as the Luna and let them be together. However, after I leave, Walter loses control and shifts into his wolf. He then claws the rose tattoo to shreds. "Lily, I was mistaken. You're the Luna I truly love. Please, give me another chance to love you again…"

Wulan bukanlah gadis biasa. Sejak kecil, ia hidup dalam bayangan misteri. Tanpa tahu siapa ayah dan ibunya, dia hanya dibesarkan oleh kehangatan Ningsih, ibu angkatnya. Namun, kehangatan itu berubah menjadi bara api pembalasan dendam ketika Wulan tepat berusia 20 tahun. Di suatu malam yang mengerikan, Ningsih terbunuh di antara kegelapan pekat di hutan larangan. Wulan merasa bersalah karena merasa Ningsih mati karena dirinya, dan meminta bantuan Mbah Broto, dukun sakti yang ada di kaki Gunung Halimun, tidak jauh dari desanya.

Ia menjadi boneka yang sempurna, pelayan nafsu dan ambisi sang dukun, namun bara dendamnya tetap menyala terang. Kecantikan dan kemolekan Wulan menjadi umpan yang lezat, dan lama-kelamaan, Wulan mulai menikmati perannya. Apakah dia akan kelak larut di dalamnya, dan lupa niat balas dendamnya?

Today is the Full Moon Ceremony, all members of the Wigner pack, along with the elders, have come to our mansion to celebrate together. But I wasn’t invited, even as Leon’s Luna. I was in the storage room with a report from the midwife in my hand. I was pregnant with three pups. This was supposed to be a surprise for Leon, until I heard Leon talking with his friend Demon just now. Demon asked, “Are you sure you won’t let your Luna join this party?” “My Luna is just a party bomber, she’ll only ruin tonight’s atmosphere.” “I heard Lisa is back. What do you think she’ll do when she finds out you married her twin sister? But I wonder, between the twins, which one do you prefer?” Demon laughed. “Carla is just a substitute for Lisa, you know. She will even die for me. But she’s useless, I’ll leave her soon.” Even the money for his party came out of my pocket. I brought in over $20 million in profits each year with my wolfsbane antidote formula. I was the one kept this company running, and still, I wasn’t even invited to his party. He was thinking about how to get rid of me. I covered my mouth to stop myself from sobbing. I pulled myself together five minutes later and left this party. I could feel that three strong heartbeats in my belly. “My pups, mommy is sorry. I have to leave your father-wolf…” My Luna’s Coronation Ceremony was only 5 days away. By that time, I would have already taken my triplets away and leave him forever.

Prologue Hawak ang maliit na bag, nakatayo si Althea Santos, 20, sa harap ng marangyang tahanan ng pamilya Velasco. Para bang ibang mundo ang kaharap niya—malayo sa simpleng buhay sa probinsya. Kailangan niya ang trabahong ito, at ang pagiging kasambahay ng isang kilalang doktor ang tanging daan upang makatulong sa pamilya. Pagpasok niya sa sala, sinalubong siya ng bango ng mamahaling pabango at kinang ng chandelier. Ang bawat sulok ay parang larawan mula sa magasin, at halos hindi siya makapaniwala na dito siya maninirahan. “Ah, ikaw pala si Althea,” isang malalim na tinig ang umalingawngaw. Lumingon siya at napatigil. Isang matangkad, gwapo, at matipunong lalaki ang naroon—may malamig na tingin ngunit hindi maitatangging kaakit-akit. Si Dr. Adrian Velasco, 25, amo niya at isang respetadong doktor. “Y-yes, Sir,” sagot niya, pilit pinapakalma ang nanginginig na tinig. Ramdam niya ang mabilis na tibok ng puso, hindi lamang dahil sa kaba kundi sa paraan ng pagtitig ni Adrian—parang binabasa ang kanyang buong pagkatao. Lumapit ito, mabagal at tiyak ang bawat hakbang. “Welcome sa Velasco residence. Sana makapag-adjust ka nang mabuti.” Kasabay ng banayad na babala ang isang maliit na ngiti na nag-iwan ng init sa dibdib ni Althea. Sa sandaling iyon, naramdaman niya ang tensyon—isang halong respeto, kaba, at hindi maikakailang kilig. Alam niyang hindi magiging ordinaryo ang mga susunod na araw. Sa ilalim ng bubong na ito, magsisimula ang kwento ng damdamin na susubok sa kanya—mga lihim, selos, kilig, at sakit na magbabago sa kanyang puso magpakailanman. ---

Alea Devina (20) tidak pernah menyangka malam paling hancur dalam hidupnya akan menjadi awal dari sesuatu yang lebih rumit dari sekadar penyesalan. Setelah dikhianati kekasihnya, Alea mencari pelarian dalam kebodohan sesaat—segelas minuman, tawa asing, dan pelukan seorang pria yang terasa hangat di antara kekosongan—one night stand. Namun, dunia Alea runtuh ketika ia sadar: pria itu adalah Darren Vahl (32) dosen baru di jurusan yang sama dengannya. Berusaha melupakan malam itu, Alea kembali fokus pada kuliahnya. Tapi ketika dua garis merah muncul di test pack yang tergenggam di tangannya, semua rasa takut yang ia tahan pecah. Di saat yang sama, Darren terkejut ketika tahu kebenaran yang tidak seharusnya terjadi antara dosen dan mahasiswi—hubungan terlarang yang bisa menghancurkan keduanya. Namun seiring waktu, Darren menemukan ketenangan yang tak ia temui di mana pun dalam diri Alea, sementara Alea menemukan sisi lembut Darren di balik sosok tegas dan tertutupnya. Mereka berdua terjebak dalam dilema: menjaga reputasi dan masa depan, atau mengikuti sesuatu yang tumbuh diam-diam di antara rasa bersalah dan cinta yang tak seharusnya ada. Tapi cinta yang lahir dari kesalahan tidak pernah berjalan mudah. Saat rahasia mulai terkuak, batas antara yang benar dan yang salah kabur perlahan—dan mereka harus memilih: bertahan dalam bayang-bayang dosa, atau berjuang untuk cinta yang semua orang anggap salah. Belum lagi pertentangan dari segala pihak yang menginginkan keduanya untuk berpisah karena memang dari awal tidak semestinya bersama.
