Ceraikan Aku Sebelum Kematian Menjemputku, CEO
Charlotte Morgan
Introduction
Tangan saya secara naluri mencapai perut saya. "Jadi... ia benar-benar hilang?"
"Badan awak yang lemah akibat kanser tak boleh menyokong kehamilan ini. Kita perlu hentikannya, segera," kata doktor itu.
Selepas pembedahan, DIA muncul. "Audrey Sinclair! Berani awak buat keputusan ini tanpa berbincang dengan saya?"
Saya mahu meluahkan kesakitan saya, untuk merasai pelukan dia. Tapi bila saya nampak WANITA di sebelahnya, saya menyerah.
Tanpa ragu, dia pergi bersama wanita "rapuh" itu. Kelembutan seperti itu, saya tak pernah rasa.
Namun, saya tak kisah lagi kerana saya tak ada apa-apa sekarang - anak saya, cinta saya, dan bahkan... hidup saya.
***
Audrey Sinclair, seorang wanita malang, jatuh cinta dengan lelaki yang tak sepatutnya. Blake Parker, bilionair paling berkuasa di New York, memiliki segala yang diidamkan oleh seorang lelaki - wang, kuasa, pengaruh - tapi satu perkara: dia tak cintakan Audrey.
Lima tahun cinta bertepuk sebelah tangan. Tiga tahun perkahwinan rahsia. Satu diagnosis yang meninggalkan dia dengan tiga bulan untuk hidup.
Bila bintang Hollywood itu pulang dari Eropah, Audrey Sinclair tahu sudah tiba masanya untuk mengakhiri perkahwinan tanpa cinta ini. Tapi dia tak faham - jika Blake tak cintakan dia, kenapa dia menolak bila Audrey minta cerai? Kenapa dia menyeksa Audrey dalam tiga bulan terakhir hidupnya?
Masa berlalu seperti pasir dalam jam pasir, Audrey mesti memilih: mati sebagai Puan Parker, atau hidupkan hari-hari terakhirnya dengan kebebasan.

Chapter 1
POV Audrey
Dinding putih di Klinik Mayo kelihatan lebih sejuk daripada biasa hari ini. Atau mungkin hanya aku yang merasakannya, duduk di pejabat Dr. Evans, merenung skrin telefon sambil menunggu dia kembali dengan keputusan ujian. Tajuk utama di Page Six menyala terang: "Bintang Hollywood Laurel Rose Kembali Mengejut, Disambut oleh Bujang Paling Layak di NYC."
Bujang paling layak. Aku hampir ketawa mendengarnya. Media langsung tidak tahu bahawa Blake Parker, anak emas New York dan CEO Parker Group, telah berkahwin selama tiga tahun. Dengan aku, dari semua orang. Gambar-gambar menunjukkan dia di JFK, menyambutnya dengan senyuman yang pernah aku kenal sangat baik. Bila kali terakhir dia tersenyum padaku begitu?
Tiga bulan. Itu sahaja masa yang aku ada, menurut Dr. Evans. Sekarang ini. Aku menggeser gambar lain mereka bersama, kelihatan seperti pasangan sempurna yang semua orang dakwa mereka.
"Puan Parker?" Suara Dr. Evans menarikku dari lamunan. Dia tidak pernah menggunakan nama perkahwinanku kecuali kami berdua sahaja. Kepada dunia luar, aku masih Audrey Sinclair, gadis kampung yang tertukar semasa lahir dan kembali kepada kekayaan Sinclair pada usia lapan belas tahun. Isteri rahsia bukan sebahagian daripada cerita awamku.
Aku mendongak, tetapi aku sudah tahu apa yang dia akan katakan. Kelembutan di matanya mengatakan segalanya.
"Maafkan saya, Puan Parker. Kami tidak dapat menyelamatkan bayi itu."
Tanganku secara naluri pergi ke perut. "Jadi... ia benar-benar tiada?"
"Kerana kanser anda, badan anda terlalu lemah sekarang." Dia berhenti, memilih kata-katanya dengan berhati-hati. "Kami perlu mengakhiri kehamilan ini. Lebih cepat, lebih baik."
Aku mengangguk, terkejut dengan betapa tenangnya aku rasa. Mungkin selepas lima tahun mencintai Blake Parker, selepas tiga tahun perkahwinan yang hanya wujud di atas kertas, selepas mengetahui aku hanya mempunyai beberapa bulan lagi... mungkin aku akhirnya kehabisan air mata.
"Boleh kita lakukan hari ini?"
Dr. Evans berkelip, terkejut dengan permintaanku. "Ya, tetapi..."
"Tanpa ubat penahan sakit," aku memotongnya. "Saya mahu merasai segalanya."
"Audrey, awak tak perlu buat begini. Kesakitan itu..."
"Tolong." Aku menemui pandangan risau dia. "Saya perlukan ini."
Koridor hospital dipenuhi bisikan ketika aku berjalan menuju ke sayap pembedahan. Dua jururawat berkumpul di sebelah dispenser air, suara mereka kedengaran walaupun mereka cuba berbisik.
"Awak nampak Laurel Rose? Tiga tahun di Eropah, dan sebaik saja dia kembali, Blake Parker sendiri yang jemput dia di JFK."
"Yalah, mereka kekasih masa kolej. Dia tunggu tiga tahun sementara dia membina kerjayanya di Eropah. Kalau itu bukan cinta sejati, saya tak tahu apa lagi."
Kalau itu cinta sejati, aku fikir, apa yang awak panggil menghabiskan tiga tahun menjaga seseorang dalam koma? Apa yang awak panggil mencintai seseorang yang tak pernah mencintai awak kembali?
Tapi aku tahu apa yang mereka akan panggil: menyedihkan. Perkara yang sama yang dipanggil oleh ibu Blake ketika aku enggan meninggalkan sisinya selepas kemalangan. Perkara yang sama yang dibisikkan oleh adiknya ketika aku menghabiskan malam tidur di kerusi hospital.
Bilik pembedahan sudah siap. Dr. Evans membuat satu percubaan terakhir untuk mengubah fikiran saya tentang ubat penahan sakit, tetapi saya tetap tegas. Ketika saya berbaring di atas meja yang sejuk, saya teringat panggilan telefon yang saya buat pagi ini. Lima percubaan untuk menghubungi Blake. Lima panggilan terus ke mel suara. Lima peluang untuk dia menjawab, untuk berada di sini, untuk membuktikan saya salah tentang kita.
"Audrey Sinclair! Berani awak buat keputusan ini tanpa berbincang dengan saya?"
Suara Blake memenuhi bilik pemulihan tiga puluh minit selepas prosedur. Dia berdiri di pintu, kelihatan sempurna seperti biasa, wajahnya penuh dengan kemarahan. Walaupun marah, dia tetap tampan. Tidak adil rasanya.
"Saya cuba menghubungi awak." Suara saya keluar lebih tenang daripada yang saya jangkakan.
"Bohong. Tiada panggilan tidak dijawab daripada awak."
"Periksa sejarah panggilan awak."
Dia mengeluarkan telefonnya, meleret melalui skrin dengan sengaja sebelum ketawa dingin. "Tiada apa-apa. Awak memang pembohong, kan, Audrey?"
Sudah tentu tidak, saya fikir. Laurel pasti memastikan itu.
"Nampaknya kehilangan bayi ini adalah pilihan yang tepat," saya berkata sebaliknya, melihat wajahnya semakin gelap dengan kemarahan.
Dia melangkah lebih dekat, kehadirannya memenuhi bilik seperti biasa. "Awak tiada hak..."
"Oh... kepala saya..."
Rintihan lembut dari pintu memotong pertengkaran kami seperti pisau. Laurel Rose berdiri di sana, satu tangan ditekan ke dahi, satu lagi menggenggam bingkai pintu. Gaun putihnya dan wajahnya yang pucat membuatnya kelihatan rapuh dan lembut.
"Blake, sayang, saya rasa pening..."
Saya melihat Blake berubah sepenuhnya. Kemarahan di matanya mencair menjadi kebimbangan ketika dia berpaling dari saya, bergegas menangkap Laurel yang terhuyung-hayang secara dramatik.
"Apa yang salah? Perlu saya panggil doktor?"
Dia menggeleng lemah, berpaut pada lengannya. "Saya... mungkin tekanan perjalanan..."
Dan begitu sahaja, saya menjadi tidak kelihatan. Saya melihat Blake menyokong pinggang Laurel, sentuhannya lembut dengan cara yang tidak pernah dia lakukan pada saya. Saya melihat dia membimbingnya dengan berhati-hati ke pintu, semua fikiran tentang pertengkaran kami terlupa.
Melalui tingkap bilik VIP saya, saya dapat melihat mereka berjalan di koridor. Lengannya di pinggangnya. Kepalanya di bahunya. Pasangan sempurna, menurut Page Six dan semua orang lain.
Apabila bayang mereka hilang di sebalik sudut, saya meletakkan tangan saya di atas rahim yang kosong, mengetahui ini adalah tanda saya untuk keluar dengan elegan.
Lagipun, apa yang tinggal untuk dipegang?
Saya mengeluarkan telefon saya, menatap senarai panggilan keluar buat kali terakhir. Lima percubaan gagal untuk menghubungi Blake. Walaupun dia tahu kebenaran tentang panggilan ini sekarang, ia tetap sama.
Jururawat menyerahkan saya beg kertas ubat di kaunter pembayaran. Saya tidak peduli untuk melihat di dalamnya.
Rumah Lunar terasa lebih sunyi daripada biasa apabila saya pulang. Saya hanya sempat berjalan separuh jalan ke bilik tidur sebelum gelombang kesakitan pertama melanda. Sakit yang tajam dan memulas di perut saya membuat saya terjatuh. Entah bagaimana saya berjaya tersandung ke bilik mandi, nyaris sampai ke tandas sebelum rasa logam memenuhi mulut saya.
Porcelain putih bertukar merah, dan kepala saya semakin berat - saya kehilangan kesedaran.

After the Affair: Falling into a Billionaire's Arms
On my birthday, he took her on vacation. On our anniversary, he brought her to our home and made love to her in our bed...
Heartbroken, I tricked him into signing divorce papers.
George remained unconcerned, convinced I would never leave him.
His deceptions continued until the day the divorce was finalized. I threw the papers in his face: "George Capulet, from this moment on, get out of my life!"
Only then did panic flood his eyes as he begged me to stay.
When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.
"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"
George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"
"I'm afraid that's impossible."
Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."
The mafia princess return
Her CEO Stalker and Her Second Chance Mate
“Where is that slut of yours, Creedon? Must be a hell of a lay. The coffee is going to be cold,” Michael complained. “What's the point in keeping her around? She's not even your breed.”
Not his breed?
“You know me, I like nice accessories, Besides, she is smarter than she looks."
An Accessory?
“Stop toying with the girl. You're letting her get too close to us. Not to mention the scandal you’ll have with the press once they realize she's a poor country girl. America will fall in love with her, you will just crush them when you’re done with her. Poor Image...” The sound of fits hitting the table silenced the room.
“She’s mine! She is no concern of yours. I can fuck her, breed her, or cast her aside, remember who's in charge here. “If I want to use her as a cum bucket, I will." His anger explosive.
Breed me? Cast me aside? Cum bucket? I think not!*
“She is pretty, but she’s of no value to you, Creedon. A pebble in a sea of diamonds, darling. You can have any woman you desire. Fuck her out of your system, and sign off on her,” Latrisha spat. “That one is going to become a pain in your ass. You need a bitch that will submit.”
Someone, please, come mop up the word vomit this woman has just spewed.
“I have her under control, Trisha, back the fuck off.”
**Control? Oh, hell naw! ** He hadn't met the take no bullshit southern bitch I could be.
Rage brewed as I elbowed open door.
Well, here goes everything.
The Biker Alpha Who Became My Second Chance Mate
"You're like a sister to me."
Those were the actual words that broke the camel's back.
Not after what just happened. Not after the hot, breathless, soul-shaking night we spent tangled in each other's arms.
I knew from the beginning that Tristan Hayes was a line I shouldn't cross.
He wasn't just anyone, he was my brother's best friend. The man I spent years secretly wanting.
But that night... we were broken. We had just buried our parents. And the grief was too heavy, too real...so I begged him to touch me.
To make me forget. To fill the silence that death left behind.
And he did. He held me like I was something fragile.
Kissed me like I was the only thing he needed to breathe.
Then left me bleeding with six words that burned deeper than rejection ever could.
So, I ran. Away from everything that cost me pain.
Now, five years later, I'm back.
Fresh from rejecting the mate who abused me. Still carrying the scars of a pup I never got to hold.
And the man waiting for me at the airport isn't my brother.
It's Tristan.
And he's not the guy I left behind.
He's a biker.
An Alpha.
And when he looked at me, I knew there was no where else to run to.
Mated by Contract to the Alpha
William—my devastatingly handsome, wealthy werewolf fiancé destined to become Delta—was supposed to be mine forever. After five years together, I was ready to walk down the aisle and claim my happily ever after.
Instead, I found him with her. And their son.
Betrayed, jobless, and drowning in my father's medical bills, I hit rock bottom harder than I ever imagined possible. Just when I thought I'd lost everything, salvation came in the form of the most dangerous man I'd ever encountered.
Damien Sterling—future Alpha of the Silver Moon Shadow Pack and ruthless CEO of Sterling Group—slid a contract across his desk with predatory grace.
“Sign this, little doe, and I'll give you everything your heart desires. Wealth. Power. Revenge. But understand this—the moment you put pen to paper, you become mine. Body, soul, and everything in between.”
I should have run. Instead, I signed my name and sealed my fate.
Now I belong to the Alpha. And he's about to show me just how wild love can be.
