Chapter 1

Moana

Malam itu panas sekali, dan aku baru saja menghabiskan sepanjang hari mencari pekerjaan.

Mencari kerja sebagai manusia di dunia yang didominasi oleh manusia serigala, terutama di tengah hiruk-pikuk kota, tidaklah mudah. Meskipun aku memiliki gelar dalam Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini, tidak ada sekolah yang mau mempekerjakanku karena aku manusia. Orang tua manusia serigala marah dengan gagasan bahwa seorang "manusia tidak berguna" mengajar anak-anak mereka, seolah-olah keterampilan, semangat, dan pendidikanku tidak berarti apa-apa.

Jadi, aku sekarang terbatas pada pekerjaan di bidang layanan, yang sayangnya juga sulit didapat karena pasar kerja penuh dengan manusia lain yang juga putus asa untuk membayar tagihan mereka.

Jika aku tidak segera menemukan pekerjaan, aku akan kehilangan apartemenku. Pemilik apartemen sudah memberiku pemberitahuan tiga puluh hari. Jika aku tidak membayar sewanya -- dan tiga bulan sewa yang sudah aku utang -- pada akhir tiga puluh hari, dia akan mengusirku.

Setidaknya aku masih punya pacarku, Sam. Dia juga tidak terlalu kaya meskipun dia manusia serigala, tapi setidaknya dia punya pekerjaan dan bisa membayar sewanya. Kami sudah bersama selama tiga tahun sekarang dan sudah saling kenal selama lima tahun, jadi mungkin sudah waktunya untuk membicarakan tentang tinggal bersama.

Saat aku berjalan di jalan kota yang ramai, lapisan tipis keringat menempel di dahiku setelah seharian berlari dari satu bisnis ke bisnis lain mencoba mencari seseorang yang mau mempekerjakanku, aku mulai menyadari betapa laparnya aku. Aku tidak mampu makan di luar, tetapi aroma makanan yang lezat dari restoran-restoran yang kulewati mulai membuat mulutku berair.

Satu restoran tertentu di seberang jalan menarik perhatianku, tapi bukan karena aroma makanannya.

Aku berhenti di tempat, mataku membesar.

Di dalam restoran, tepat di jendela, ada Sam. Dia tidak sendirian; dia bersama seorang wanita lain, dan mereka...

Berciuman.

"Kamu pasti bercanda," kataku keras-keras, membuat beberapa orang yang lewat menoleh dan memberiku tatapan aneh.

Sam mengatakan padaku bahwa dia sibuk akhir-akhir ini, bahwa dia punya banyak pekerjaan... Apakah ini yang sebenarnya dia lakukan? Selingkuh dariku dengan wanita lain?

Kemarahanku mendidih di dalam diriku, dan tanpa berpikir, aku menyerbu melintasi jalan dan menuju jendela restoran. Perutku bergejolak saat aku semakin mendekat. Wanita ini cantik sekali -- seperti supermodel -- dan itu tidak membuatku merasa lebih baik tentang situasinya. Tidak hanya Sam berselingkuh dariku, tetapi dia berselingkuh dengan seseorang yang terlihat seperti itu.

Dia kurus, pirang, dan berkulit cokelat dengan kaki panjang, mengenakan gaun malam minim dan sepatu hak tinggi. Aku memang sering mendapat pujian pada wajah, tubuh, dan rambut merah panjangku, tapi saat itu, aku merasa sangat tidak berharga saat berdiri di sana melihat Sam dan selingkuhannya.

Bagaimana dia bisa melakukan ini padaku?

Aku berhenti di depan jendela. Mereka berdua bahkan tidak melihatku berdiri di sana, mereka begitu tenggelam dalam sesi ciuman mereka.

Jadi, aku mengetuk jendela dengan keras.

Sam dan wanita misterius itu sama-sama terkejut, mata mereka membesar saat melihatku. Aku menyerbu ke pintu masuk dan berlari masuk, mengabaikan tatapan aneh dari staf dan pelanggan restoran, dan berlari ke tempat Sam dan wanita itu duduk.

"Berani-beraninya kamu?!" aku berteriak, tanganku mengepal di sisi tubuhku. "Kita sudah bersama selama tiga tahun dan kamu selingkuh dariku?"

Wanita itu melihat ke arah Sam dan aku dengan ekspresi malu di wajahnya saat restoran menjadi hening, tapi wajah Sam hanya menunjukkan kemarahan dan kebencian. Tanpa mengatakan sepatah kata pun, Sam berdiri dan menarikku dengan kasar, menyeretku keluar dari restoran. Dia terlalu kuat untuk aku lawan, jadi aku terhuyung-huyung mengikutinya kembali ke jalan yang sibuk dengan air mata mengalir di pipiku.

"Kamu mempermalukan kita berdua, Moana," dia menggeram saat kami sudah di luar.

"Aku mempermalukan kita?" aku membalas, suaraku masih tinggi. "Kamu berciuman dengan wanita lain di depan umum!"

Sam hanya memutar matanya dan menarikku lebih jauh dari pintu. Mata manusia serigalanya bersinar dengan warna oranye terang dan wajahnya penuh dengan kemarahan.

"Kendalikan emosimu," bisiknya, mendorongku kasar ke sisi bangunan. "Kamu hanya manusia biasa. Kamu harus merasa beruntung aku mau bersamamu selama tiga tahun."

Kata-katanya menyakitkan, dan penglihatanku menjadi kabur oleh air mata.

"Mengapa dia?" Aku terisak, suara serak karena tangisan yang tertahan di tenggorokan.

Sam, pria yang telah mengatakan mencintaiku selama tiga tahun, hanya tertawa kecil. "Kamu tidak berguna bagiku," dia menggeram. "Dia seorang Beta. Keluarganya sangat kaya dan berkuasa, dan berkat dia, aku akan mulai bekerja di WereCorp minggu depan."

WereCorp adalah perusahaan terbesar di dunia. Mereka tidak hanya mengendalikan semua bank, tetapi juga mengembangkan cryptocurrency terbaru dan paling banyak digunakan di abad ke-21: WCoin. Aku tidak pernah menggunakannya -- manusia tidak diizinkan -- tetapi itu membuat banyak werewolf sangat kaya ketika pertama kali diluncurkan.

Dia melanjutkan, "Apa yang sudah kamu lakukan untukku selain mengandalkan diriku karena kamu bahkan tidak bisa mendapatkan pekerjaan sendiri? Kamu bukan apa-apa dibandingkan dia. Beraninya kamu mempertanyakan keputusanku untuk melanjutkan hidup."

Tidak ada lagi yang bisa kukatakan; tidak ada lagi yang bisa terpikirkan selain menjauh darinya. Aku mendorong Sam akhirnya, menjauhkan diri dari dinding. "Persetan denganmu," aku menggeram, kemarahanku mengambil alih saat aku mengangkat tanganku dan menamparnya keras di wajah. Orang-orang yang lewat sekarang melihat ke arah kami, tapi aku tidak peduli.

Tanpa sepatah kata pun, aku berbalik dan berjalan pergi tanpa menoleh ke belakang.

Saat aku berjalan dengan perasaan mati rasa di sepanjang jalan dan menghapus air mata dari mataku, aku memikirkan seperti apa Sam saat kami pertama kali bertemu; dia tidak lebih dari seorang Omega yang di-bully di SMA tanpa kepercayaan diri, tanpa prospek, dan tanpa teman. Aku telah membantunya mendapatkan kepercayaan diri dengan cinta dan dukunganku, dan begini caranya membalas budi? Dengan meninggalkanku demi seorang pirang, hanya demi pekerjaan di WereCorp?

Tidak ada yang membuatku lebih marah daripada mengetahui bahwa pacarku selama tiga tahun, dan sahabatku selama lima tahun, telah meninggalkanku begitu mudah hanya demi uang dan kekuasaan.

Aku masih marah ketika aku melangkah ke persimpangan, terlalu mati rasa untuk melihat dengan benar sebelum menyeberang. Saat itu, aku mendengar suara klakson mobil dan melihat ke atas untuk melihat mobil mewah melaju langsung ke arahku. Mengutuk diriku sendiri, aku terhuyung mundur dan jatuh ke dalam genangan air tepat sebelum mobil itu menabrakku.

Mobil itu berhenti mendadak di sampingku, yang mengejutkan karena aku mengira mereka akan langsung pergi setelah hampir menabrakku, tetapi yang lebih mengejutkan lagi adalah orang yang duduk di dalam mobil ketika jendela diturunkan.

Edrick Morgan, CEO WereCorp.

Edrick dikenal tidak hanya sebagai CEO termuda dalam sejarah perusahaan dan pewaris kekayaan terbesar di dunia, tetapi juga karena penampilannya yang menakjubkan -- dan meskipun aku sangat terluka dan marah tentang semua yang terjadi hari ini, aku tidak bisa tidak memperhatikan garis rahangnya yang kuat, bahu dan lengannya yang berotot, dan wajahnya yang sangat tampan.

Aku membuka mulut untuk mengatakan sesuatu tentang bagaimana dia hampir menabrakku, tetapi sebelum aku bisa, dia melihatku dari atas ke bawah dan melemparkan segepok uang keluar jendela, pergi dengan deru mesinnya.

Edrick Morgan, CEO WereCorp, hampir menabrakku dengan mobilnya... dan melemparkan uang padaku seperti aku pengemis.

Semua werewolf benar-benar sombong.

Aku melemparkan uang itu ke tanah dan berdiri, mengutuk di bawah napasku saat aku menyadari betapa basah dan kotornya pakaianku. Aku harus pulang dan mencari uang receh untuk mencuci pakaian di laundry agar bisa melanjutkan mencari pekerjaan besok, tapi jujur saja untuk saat ini aku hanya ingin menenggelamkan kesedihanku.

Aku berjalan beberapa blok, akhirnya melihat sebuah bar yang tampak tenang dan nyaman. Mengambil napas dalam-dalam dan merapikan baju yang ternoda, aku berjalan melalui pintu dan mendekati penjaga pintu.

Penjaga pintu menyipitkan matanya padaku dan melihatku dari atas ke bawah, mencium udara di depanku.

"Tidak ada manusia yang diizinkan masuk tanpa pengawal anggota," dia menggeram, melipat tangannya.

Aku mengerutkan kening. "Anggota?" tanyaku. "Aku pelanggan yang membayar. Biarkan aku membeli minuman."

Penjaga pintu menggelengkan kepala dan mulai mengusirku ke pintu seperti aku semacam gangguan.

"Apakah ini bahkan legal?" kataku, menaikkan suaraku. "Kamu tidak bisa mendiskriminasi manusia seperti ini! Apa uangku tidak berharga di sini hanya karena--"

"Dia bersamaku," suara tegas dan jelas tiba-tiba berkata dari belakang.

Penjaga pintu dan aku sama-sama melihat ke atas dan berbalik untuk melihat seorang pria bersetelan berdiri di tangga.

Edrick Morgan.

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."

I can't breathe. Every touch, every kiss from Tristan set my body on fire, drowning me in a sensation I shouldn't have wanted—especially not that night.
"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.

He's a biker.
An Alpha.
And when he looked at me, I knew there was no where else to run to.

I paused at the ajar conference room door, attempting to balance the tray of coffees. Creedon was my new boss, now also my boyfriend. I listened at the door.

“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.

He kills without mercy. She loves without reason. And nothing will stop her from having him.

For three years, Mafia leader Conner O’Neill has felt eyes on him. A phantom touch in the night. Perfume lingering on his pillows. Warm cookies in his oven. Enemies' heads delivered to his doorstep, gift-wrapped in bloodied silk. It isn’t fear that coils in his gut—it’s fascination. Someone is watching him. Someone who knows him. Someone who kills for him.

Her name is Sage—and she’s been his shadow since the night he unknowingly stole her heart with a bullet to another man’s brain. For her, it was love at first sight. Violent. Beautiful. Inevitable. Raised in darkness, owned by a monster, Sage was never meant to love. But Conner changed that. And she’s been his ever since, waiting for the day she can step out of the shadows and into his arms.

But the man who owns her doesn’t let go of his toys. And the man she loves doesn’t know she exists—yet.

She’s done watching. It’s time he learns the truth.

He belongs to her. And she’ll kill anyone who tries to take him away.
