Chapter 1

Musim panas setelah lulus SMA, Hazel Astor menerima surat penerimaan dari universitas ternama.

Dia sangat senang bisa masuk ke sekolah impiannya.

Saat tiba di rumah dan masuk ke ruang tamu, dia melihat ayahnya, Aiden Astor, ibu tirinya, Cleo Smith, dan saudara tirinya, Bianca Astor, duduk di sofa.

Bianca tampak seperti habis menangis; matanya merah semua.

Cleo mencoba menghiburnya, "Bianca, kamu sudah bekerja keras. Kamu hanya tidak enak badan saat ujian, makanya hasilnya tidak bagus. Kamu pasti akan lebih baik lain kali."

Aiden menimpali dengan lembut, "Bianca, meskipun sekolah ini bukan yang terbaik, kamu selalu bisa kuliah pascasarjana di luar negeri setelah lulus. Itu akan sama bagusnya saat kamu kembali."

Hazel masuk ke dalam adegan keluarga yang hangat ini.

Dia menyimpan surat penerimaannya, tidak berkata apa-apa, dan langsung menuju ke kamarnya di lantai atas.

Naik-turun keluarga ini tidak ada hubungannya dengan dia.

Begitu dia masuk kuliah, dia berencana untuk menjauh dari mereka.

Tapi Bianca tidak akan membiarkannya begitu saja. Dia mengangkat wajah yang penuh air mata dan bertanya, "Hazel, kamu sudah dapat surat penerimaan?"

Hazel sejak masuk sudah memasang ekspresi dingin, membuatnya terlihat seperti tidak diterima di universitas yang diinginkannya.

Bianca berpikir, meskipun dia masuk ke sekolah kedua, itu masih lebih baik daripada Hazel yang tidak punya sekolah untuk masuk. Dia menunggu Hazel mempermalukan dirinya di depan Aiden.

Melihat ekspresi Bianca, Hazel bisa dengan mudah menebak apa yang dia pikirkan.

Hazel tertawa dingin dan perlahan membuka surat penerimaannya di depan mereka.

Surat yang mewah itu menyakitkan mata Bianca. Dia menekan rasa cemburu dan benci yang intens di hatinya, tetap tersenyum lembut di permukaan. "Universitas bergengsi! Hazel, kamu benar-benar luar biasa! Selamat!"

Aiden melirik nama universitas itu dan tersenyum sedikit. "Hazel memang selalu pintar."

Mendengar kata-kata Aiden, Cleo segera berpura-pura bertanya dengan perhatian, "Hazel, kamu lapar? Perlu aku minta pembantu masak sesuatu untukmu?"

Hazel menjawab dingin, "Tidak perlu." Dia lalu berbalik dan naik ke atas.

Dia tidak ingin berurusan dengan orang-orang yang telah mengambil alih rumahnya dan menyebabkan kematian ibunya.

Dengan beberapa hari tersisa sebelum sekolah dimulai, Hazel sedang mengemas barang-barangnya di kamar.

Bianca meneleponnya, "Hazel, kita berdua akan kuliah sebentar lagi. Ayah dan Ibu bilang kita bisa pergi ke bar untuk merayakan."

Hazel tidak tertarik dan ingin segera menutup telepon. "Tidak, aku sibuk."

Bianca berkata, "Hazel, aku tahu kamu tidak suka Ibu dan aku. Tapi kita akan segera meninggalkan rumah dan tidak akan bertemu selama berbulan-bulan. Selain itu, kita sudah 18 tahun sekarang dan boleh minum. Sekali saja, oke?"

Hazel memikirkannya dan kemudian setuju. Dia akan meninggalkan rumah ini tanpa ada keterikatan. Dan dia tidak masalah pergi ke bar dan tidak perlu menolaknya.

Dia menutup koper dan menjawab Bianca, "Baiklah, aku akan ganti baju."

Di ujung lain, Bianca berteriak dengan gembira, "Bagus, Hazel! Aku akan menunggumu dan mengirimkan alamatnya."

Bagi orang lain, sepertinya dia benar-benar senang melihat Hazel. Tapi di luar pandangan, bibirnya melengkung menjadi senyum jahat.

Melihat percakapannya dengan Hazel, dia berpikir dengan kejam, 'Hazel, jika aku tidak bisa masuk universitas bagus, kamu juga tidak bisa.'

Dia menyimpan ponselnya dan terus mengobrol dengan orang-orang di sekitarnya, tampak manis dan tidak berbahaya.

Hazel berganti pakaian dan melihat dirinya di cermin. Pada usia delapan belas, dia telah menjadi cerah dan cantik.

Ini adalah pertama kalinya dia ke bar.

Meskipun dia telah melihat banyak acara sebelumnya, dia masih merasa sedikit tidak nyaman menavigasi lingkungan yang bising dan mencolok ini sendirian.

Dia menelepon Bianca, "Di ruangan mana?... Oke."

Memegang ponsel, dia berjalan di sepanjang dinding, terus menghindari orang-orang mabuk.

Berbelok di sudut, dia tidak sengaja menabrak seseorang dan segera meminta maaf, "Maaf."

Lalu dia segera mundur selangkah.

Orang yang ditabraknya memiliki aroma cedarwood yang menyenangkan dicampur dengan bau tembakau yang samar.

Hazel menundukkan kepalanya. Dari sudut pandangnya, dia melihat sepasang sepatu kulit hitam mengkilap dan celana setelan hitam lurus, menunjukkan orang itu tinggi dengan kaki panjang dan pinggang ramping.

Pria itu sedikit berbalik dan memberi isyarat agar dia lewat.

Hazel memperhatikan tangan pria itu yang terdefinisi dengan baik, menunjukkan bahwa dia masih muda, dan dia memakai jam tangan emas Patek Philippe di pergelangan tangannya.

Dia mengangguk sedikit untuk berterima kasih, mengangkat gaun putih panjangnya, dan bergegas pergi. Tapi dia tidak melihat tatapan yang mengikutinya dari belakang.

Dia kemudian masuk ke ruang pribadi, dan Bianca memberikan minuman kepadanya.

Bianca mengamati dengan seksama saat Hazel menyesap minumannya, bibirnya melengkung menjadi senyuman, matanya dipenuhi dengan rasa kemenangan yang ambigu. Dia menyembunyikan senyum jahatnya di balik gelas.

Pikiran tentang aib yang akan segera menimpa Hazel membuatnya gemetar dengan kegembiraan.

Hazel tidak berpikir banyak dan meminum alkoholnya, tidak menyadari kebencian dan kegembiraan di mata Bianca.

Bar itu ramai dan terang benderang. Beberapa menit kemudian, Hazel mulai merasa pusing, tak dapat dijelaskan mengapa dia merasa gelisah dan haus.

Melalui penglihatannya yang kabur, dia melihat ke arah Bianca yang tampak khawatir.

Bianca bertanya, "Hazel, kamu merasa tidak enak badan? Aku sudah pesan kamar di atas. Biar aku panggil seseorang untuk bantu kamu istirahat."

Pipi Hazel sudah memerah, napasnya cepat, dan dahinya berkeringat. Dia curiga bahwa minumannya telah dicampur sesuatu.

Dia berpikir, 'Satu tegukan tidak mungkin menyebabkan reaksi sekuat ini. Siapa lagi kalau bukan Bianca?'

Penglihatannya sudah kabur. Dia meraih kerah Bianca dan menggeram, "Bianca! Kamu meracuni aku!"

Bianca meletakkan gelasnya, dengan dingin menepis tangan Hazel, dan berkata, "Hazel, apa yang kamu bicarakan? Kita minum minuman yang sama. Kalau kamu tidak kuat minum, jangan salahkan aku."

Hazel, yang sekarang lemah, jatuh ke sofa, terengah-engah.

Meskipun biasanya tenang, dia belum pernah mengalami hal seperti ini.

Pikirannya berhenti bekerja, dan dia tidak tahu harus berbuat apa.

Atas isyarat Bianca, Maddox Hernandez muncul dari sudut bar.

Dia menatap Hazel dengan jijik, senyumnya menjijikkan.

Dia berjalan mendekat dan membantu Hazel yang sekarang lemah, hampir menggendongnya keluar.

Hazel mencoba mendorong Maddox menjauh.

Tapi saat ini, kekuatannya tidak lebih dari sekadar sentilan bagi seorang pria dewasa.

Maddox memegangnya dan berjalan menuju kamar di lantai atas.

Berpura-pura mengenalnya, dia berkata, "Sayang, jangan khawatir, kita hampir sampai."

Keputusasaan membanjiri hati Hazel.

Dia tahu dia tidak berdaya untuk menyelamatkan dirinya sendiri. Dan dia tidak tahu siapa yang akan datang menyelamatkannya.

Karena Bianca telah meracuninya, pasti Bianca telah mempersiapkan segalanya dengan matang.

Mungkin nanti akan ada seseorang yang masuk ke kamar dan mengambil foto-foto kompromi, membuat aibnya diketahui semua orang. Dan reputasinya akan hancur.

Dia berjuang sekuat tenaga, tapi perbedaan kekuatan antara dia dan pria itu terlalu besar.

Maddox memegangnya saat mereka naik ke atas dan masuk ke lorong.

Hazel mencengkeram telapak tangannya dengan kuku, mencoba menggunakan rasa sakit untuk tetap sadar.

Dia dengan putus asa memikirkan cara untuk menyelamatkan dirinya sendiri.

Dia merasakan panas menyebar dari perut bawahnya, terus-menerus menyerang tubuhnya yang sensitif, yang menyebar ke anggota tubuhnya, melingkupinya.

Obat itu telah bekerja, dan kepala Hazel terasa berat.

Pria menjijikkan itu praktis menyeretnya.

Hazel terus melawan, menggunakan semua kekuatannya untuk berjuang. Tapi dia tidak berhasil.

Dia terus mendorong Maddox menjauh, berteriak, "Lepaskan aku! Tolong! Seseorang tolong aku!" Suaranya jelas terdengar dengan isak tangis.

Maddox menyeringai saat melihatnya tersandung, mengangkatnya dan berbisik di telinganya, "Pelacur, kakakmu bilang kamu masih perawan. Aku akan menikmati ini. Jangan khawatir, begitu kita di ranjang, kamu akan memohon agar aku merusak tubuhmu. Selama kamu menurut, aku akan membuatmu merasa nikmat..." Dia menempel padanya seperti ular berbisa.

Sebelum dia bisa menyelesaikan kata-kata menjijikkannya, dia tiba-tiba berteriak dan jatuh berlutut.

Dia kemudian bangkit, dan mengumpat, "Sialan! Siapa yang berani memukulku?"

Dia tampaknya dipukul lagi, menutupi wajahnya dan tidak bisa bicara.

Hazel mendengar suara pria muda lain, dengan marah menggeram, "Pergi sana!"

Kemudian Maddox kabur dengan tergesa-gesa.

Hazel terlalu lemah untuk berjalan. Dalam momen terakhir keputusasaannya, dia sedang meluncur turun dari dinding ketika tiba-tiba dia jatuh ke pelukan hangat.

Kemudian, dia dibawa masuk ke sebuah kamar.

Aroma parfum di kamar dan bau alkohol dari pria itu menyelimutinya.

Menggunakan sedikit rasionalitas yang tersisa, Hazel membuka matanya dan samar-samar melihat seorang pria tinggi dan kuat. Dia kemudian meraih lehernya dan menggigitnya.

Dia mendengar pria itu mengerang. Dan dia berbisik di telinganya, "Tolong bantu aku."

Hazel terus menggigit pria itu, membuatnya mengeluarkan erangan tertahan.

Tangannya yang lembut sudah menyelinap di bawah kemejanya, menjelajahi pinggang dan perutnya yang sensitif.

Dia berdiri di ujung jari kakinya, mulutnya terus mencapai jakunnya, menjilatnya dengan canggung.

Pria itu berbau alkohol, jadi dia jelas sudah minum juga.

Hazel bisa mendengar napas beratnya, dan napas hangatnya menyemprot di leher pria itu.

Dia merintih, "Tolong, bantu aku," sementara tangannya terus menjelajahi tubuh pria itu.

"You are absolutely my fucking woman, Dani. Got me?"
I squeezed my eyes shut.
"Dani," he pressed. "Do you get me?"
"No, Austin, I don't," I admitted as I pulled my robe closed again and sat up. "You confuse me."
He dragged his hands down his face. "Tell me what's on your mind."
I sighed. "You're everything my parents warned me against. You're secretive, but you're also honest. I feel wholly protected by you, but then you scare me more than anyone I've ever known. You're a bad boy, but when I dated a so-called good one, he turned out to be the devil, so, yeah, I don't get you because you're not what I expected. You drive me crazier than anyone I've ever met, but then you make me feel complete. I'm feeling things I don't quite know how to process and that makes me want to run. I don't want to give up something that might be really, really good, but I also don't want to be stupid and fall for a boy just because he's super pretty and makes me come."

One Night. One Mistake. One Lifetime of Consequences.

I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.

My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.

But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.

In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.

"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.

"Who the fuck is Jason?"

My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.

I ran away for my life!

But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!

They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.

Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”

There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.
