Introduction

Kenapa Jutawan Teknologi Artemis Rhodes akan memuat naik perkara sebegitu?!

*"Semua orang sedang bercakap tentang hashtag yang baru sahaja menjadi viral dalam masa beberapa jam. Namun begitu, gadis ini telah menjadi misteri yang semua orang ingin selesaikan. Malah, kami mempunyai gambar-gambar daripada beberapa orang yang telah melihat gadis ini secara langsung."*

Skrin telefon itu kecil tetapi saya dapat menangkap beberapa gambar saya yang berkelip-kelip di skrin. Ini tak boleh jadi!

Kau tahu serangan panik yang aku cuba tahan? Nah, benda tu datang balik dengan dendam. Rasa macam semua udara disedut keluar dari badan dan dada aku jadi ketat. Penglihatan aku kabur dan aku sedar aku jatuh sebelum semuanya jadi gelap.

"Tenang Cik Riley, ini Encik Rhodes, penderma kepada hospital kami. Wanita ini tunangnya. Saya akan uruskan dari sini." Kata doktor itu dan melangkah ke tepi untuk membiarkan jururawat keluar.

Aku melihat dia bergegas pergi sebelum aku fokus pada doktor itu. Dia seorang lelaki tua dengan rambut putih dan wajah mesra tetapi dia memberi aku rasa yang pelik.

Tunggu... dia baru cakap tunang?

"Maaf, apa yang awak cakap tadi?" Aku tanya.

"Saya ada cadangan untuk awak." Kata lelaki itu.

"Cadangan untuk saya? Apa maksud awak?"

"Cadangan? Maksudnya-"

Aku melambai tangan. "Bukan itu! Saya bukan bodoh. Maksud saya, cadangan apa?"

"Saya mahu awak kahwin dengan saya." Dia berkata dengan wajah serius.

Jadi, kau mesti tertanya-tanya bagaimana seorang wanita yang tinggal dalam gerabak kereta api terbiar boleh berkahwin dengan jutawan teknologi besar.

Mudah saja. Kami bertembung, bertentang mata dan selebihnya adalah sejarah.

Okay, bukan itu sebenarnya yang berlaku. Lihat, Artemis Rhodes dalam kesempitan. Dia perlukan isteri sebelum hari lahirnya yang seterusnya... enam hari lagi. Jadi apa yang dia buat? Dia memburu aku macam penguntit gila dan menawarkan aku banyak duit untuk kahwin dengannya.

Gila kan?

Sudah tentu aku tolak sebab aku ada maruah, tapi bila dunia aku terbalik, aku tak ada pilihan selain terima. Terima kasih kepadanya, aku tak boleh balik ke kehidupan lama aku, dan sekarang aku terperangkap dalam hidupnya.

Aku adalah pemberontakannya terhadap keluarganya dan duri dalam dagingnya... Kata-katanya bukan aku...

Kami dari dunia yang berbeza dan itu bermakna akhirnya dunia itu akan bertembung dan dengan itu bencana akan melanda, bersedia untuk meruntuhkan seluruh rancangan. Kau tahu, macam hari Selasa biasa.

Jadi apa yang dua orang buat bila semuanya mula jadi salah?

Biar aku ceritakan...

Chapter 1

Biru

Bunyi dentuman pada logam membuatkan aku terjaga dan melihat sekeliling dengan mata yang kabur. Ia mengambil masa beberapa saat untuk mengingati di mana aku tertidur malam tadi.

“Biru kecil, kau kena bangun!” Suara yang teredam memanggil dari seberang dinding di sebelahku.

Beberapa saat lagi untuk mengenal pasti suara itu sebagai Bucky, jiran sebelahku. Jika kau boleh panggil dia begitu. Dia tinggal dalam khemah beberapa kaki dari gerabak kereta api yang aku berada sekarang.

“Ayuhlah, gadis, rondaan akan sampai dalam masa kurang dari sejam!” Dia memanggil lagi.

Itu membuatkan aku bergerak seperti ekor terkena api. Aku tak boleh tertangkap oleh rondaan keselamatan lagi. Kali terakhir aku tak boleh kembali ke tempat kegemaran aku sekurang-kurangnya sebulan. Bukanlah aku ada banyak barang tapi leceh nak bawa barang-barang kecil yang aku ada ke mana-mana. Aku tak kisah dengan troli beli-belah sebab aku tak lekat di satu tempat cukup lama untuk kumpul banyak barang. Beg galas dan beg duffle kecil saja yang aku benarkan untuk simpan.

Aku cepat-cepat gulung sleeping bag yang aku tidur kebanyakan malam dan sumbat dalam beg duffle. Bantal yang aku guna adalah bantal leher boleh kempis, jadi aku kempiskan dan selitkan dalam sleeping bag. Aku matikan lampu kecil yang aku guna masa tidur dan letak dalam beg galas. Setelah tempat perkhemahan kecil aku dikemas, aku capai kasut converse biru lusuh yang aku dapat dari kedai barang terpakai dan sarung. Kasut tu masih okay tapi nampaknya aku perlu yang baru dalam sebulan lagi dari keadaan tapaknya.

Bila aku dah siap, aku tarik pemegang pintu gerabak kereta api dan mengerang bila aku tarik buka. Ia berat dan aku ada lengan macam mi. Tak banyak masa untuk bersenam bila aku sering bergerak. Kalau ada apa-apa, kaki aku adalah bahagian badan yang paling kuat terima kasih kepada semua berjalan kaki yang aku buat. Aku rasa aku boleh berbelanja lebih untuk pas bas tapi aku cuba jimatkan perbelanjaan. Aku tak pernah tahu bila aku perlu belanja lebih untuk sesuatu yang sedikit di luar bajet. Macam kasut dan pakaian.

Bucky berdiri di luar pintu dengan cawan kecil di tangannya. Aku tersenyum kepada kawanku dan melompat turun untuk menyapanya. Bila kaki aku mencecah tanah, aku berdiri dan angkat tangan meletakkan dua jari di dahi.

“Selamat pagi Tuan!” Aku kata sebelum memberi tabik hormat.

Dia pernah berkhidmat dalam tentera selama sepuluh tahun dan pulang tanpa sokongan dan akhirnya hidup di jalanan kerana masalahnya.

Dia menggulung mata. “Kau ni kelakar. Nah, ambil ini dan panaskan badan.”

Aku terima cawan itu dan teguk panjang cecair hangat di dalamnya.

“Kau tak perlu bawa kopi setiap hari Bucky. Terutama hari Rabu sebab aku main di Monica’s!” Aku beritahu dia sekali lagi.

Ini bukan kali pertama kami berbual tentang ini.

“Bukan macam tiga kopi kecil akan memiskinkan aku Biru Kecil. Sekarang cepat dan bergerak." Dia berpaling dan menyiapkan troli dia. "Aku akan simpan ini di lorong di Main. Kau nak ke mana?"

"Aku ada persembahan pagi di Monica’s, jadi aku akan ke sana sekarang. Di mana Maria-Ann?" Dia adalah penghuni lain di sini.

Dia adalah watak menarik dengan sikap buruk yang memerlukan masa untuk dibiasakan tetapi juga seorang yang baik dalam caranya sendiri. Dia kurang emosi tetapi dia peduli dan telah membantu aku mencari semua tempat terbaik untuk mencari kedai arak murah di kawasan ini. Aku baru di sini beberapa minggu, jadi ia sangat membantu. Aku tak selalu bernasib baik begini. Tidak semua komuniti gelandangan sebaik ini.

Mereka juga boleh berbahaya untuk seseorang macam aku. Aku buat duit dengan bermain gitar di mana saja yang boleh yang menjadikan pendapatan tetap. Tidak cukup untuk menetap di mana-mana tetapi cukup untuk terus hidup. Itu lebih daripada kebanyakan dan mereka akan datang untuk aku jika aku tidak berhati-hati. Nasib baik bila aku sampai di Seattle aku jumpa Bucky dan dia beritahu aku boleh berkhemah dengan dia di titik suis kereta api yang ditinggalkan.

Hanya ada satu gerabak kereta api yang masih utuh dan dia beritahu aku boleh guna. Pada mulanya aku menolak kerana aku tak mahu ambil dari dia atau Maria-Ann tapi dia yakinkan aku mereka tak pernah guna. Aku tahu itu bohong, tapi dia tak benarkan aku bawa perkara itu lagi. Oleh kerana aku hanya akan berada di sini beberapa minggu lagi mereka tak perlu berikan lama-lama.

"Baiklah, teruskan dan saya akan jumpa kamu malam ini." Dia menepuk bahu saya dengan canggung dan berlalu pergi.

Sekilas pandang sekitar memberitahu saya bahawa Maria-Ann sudah pulang untuk hari itu jadi saya tidak perlu menunggu. Saya mengeluarkan telefon murah dari poket dan memeriksa waktu. Masih ada kira-kira satu jam sebelum saya perlu berada di Kafe Monica pada pukul tujuh, jadi saya boleh berjalan-jalan di taman dan menikmati kopi saya.

Taman itu kira-kira dua puluh minit berjalan kaki dari stesen kereta api dan sepuluh minit berjalan kaki ke Kafe Monica. Ia tempat yang sempurna untuk bersantai dan melihat gelagat orang. Ia juga pekerjaan kedua saya. Saya bermain muzik berhampiran air pancut besar dan saya ada hubungan baik dengan pengawal taman jadi mereka tidak mengganggu saya bila saya di sini.

Saya masuk ke taman dan melihat beberapa orang berlari di sepanjang laluan. Ada bangku kosong hanya beberapa kaki dari situ jadi saya menuju ke arah itu. Apabila saya melihat papan kecil di atasnya, saya berhenti untuk membacanya.

"Untuk mengenang Cecilia Rhodes. Ibu dan isteri yang penyayang."

Rhodes?

Ia nama yang pernah saya lihat pada salah satu bangunan di pusat bandar tapi saya tidak pasti apa yang keluarga itu terkenal. Saya tidak ambil peduli tentang kehidupan golongan sosial. Apa gunanya? Saya tidak pernah faham kenapa orang begitu berminat dengan kehidupan orang kaya dan terkenal. Bukankah mereka ada cukup perkara dalam hidup mereka sendiri? Atau mungkin saya tak pernah fikirkan kerana saya tak pernah mampu beli majalah gosip.

Bila anda ada bajet yang ketat atau ibu bapa angkat yang hampir tak beri makan, apatah lagi bayar untuk sesuatu seperti itu, ia tidak kelihatan penting.

Bagaimanapun, saya beri sejenak penghormatan kepada wanita yang ingatannya menginspirasi papan tanda ini dan duduk. Cuaca semakin sejuk jadi saya perlu menarik jaket jean saya lebih rapat. Satu lagi penemuan hebat di kedai barangan terpakai, tapi ia salah satu yang ada lubang kerana itu fesyen sekarang. Saya berjaya menampal beberapa lubang tapi ia tidak banyak membantu menahan sejuk.

Saya gembira sekarang kerana Bucky belikan saya kopi ini kerana ia membantu memanaskan saya sedikit. Apabila saya mengambil satu lagi tegukan, saya mengeluh dengan rasa puas dan bersandar di tempat duduk saya. Sepasang wanita berlari melintasi dengan pakaian senaman berjenama dan kasut sukan berharga ratusan ringgit. Mereka menjeling ke arah saya dan berkata sesuatu antara satu sama lain semasa mereka melintas, tapi saya tidak berani cuba mendengar. Bukan seperti saya tidak pernah dengar orang bercakap tentang saya bila mereka melihat saya, tapi saya juga tidak mahu sengaja mendengar kata-kata buruk.

Bukan seperti saya kelihatan kotor atau apa-apa, tapi jelas bahawa saya tidak begitu berada. Pakaian saya lama dan lusuh. Itu cukup bukti bahawa saya kekurangan dalam hidup saya. Sekurang-kurangnya di mata orang lain.

Sejujurnya saya menikmati hidup saya kebanyakan masa. Ia lebih baik daripada penjagaan angkat, dan saya dapat melihat banyak tempat baru. Tidak ramai yang mempunyai kebebasan untuk bangun dan pergi bila-bila masa. Mereka sibuk dalam hidup mereka dengan pekerjaan sembilan-ke-lima dan bil-bil. Saya? Saya bebas dari semua itu.

Jangan salah faham, jika hidup menawarkan saya pekerjaan tetap dan tempat tinggal, saya tidak akan menolak peluang itu tapi ia tidak pernah berlaku. Lebih baik tidak berharap untuk perkara yang mustahil.

Jadi saya menerima kehidupan ini dan cuba hidup dengan senyuman di wajah saya. Bucky pernah beritahu saya bahawa jika anda tersenyum melalui masa-masa sukar, ia membuatkan hidup lebih mudah untuk dihadapi. Setakat ini dia tidak salah.

Saya habiskan kopi saya dan buang cawan itu ke dalam tong sampah terdekat. Sudah tiba masa untuk ke Kafe Monica, jadi saya berpaling ke jalan bertentangan dan mula berjalan ke arah itu. Jalan semakin sibuk dan saya terlalu sibuk melihat kekacauan untuk perasan seseorang datang ke arah saya. Saya terlanggar dada yang keras dan sesiapa yang saya langgar itu menjatuhkan telefon mereka.

"Oh, maaf sangat!" Saya membungkuk dan mengambilnya.

Ia kelihatan tidak rosak tapi saya membersihkannya dan melihat orang itu. Apabila dia melihat saya, dia kelihatan terkejut.

"Ini dia. Nampaknya okay." Saya menghulurkan telefon itu kepadanya tapi dia tidak bergerak untuk mengambilnya. "Okay..."

Saya mencapai tangannya dan meletakkan telefon itu di dalamnya.

"Saya ada janji di tempat lain, jadi saya perlu pergi. Maaf sekali lagi." Saya mengelak darinya dan cepat-cepat berjalan pergi.

Apabila saya menjeling ke belakang, dia sedang memerhatikan saya berjalan pergi dengan pandangan pelik di wajahnya.

Okay, itu agak pelik.

All of a sudden there was a growl that ripped through the room and the band stopped playing and I heard something smash. Like it was a wooden chair or something.
Everyone looked in that direction and there was a man standing there that I had never noticed before. He would have been in his early 20's, brown hair to his shoulders, a brown goatee, 6-foot 6 at least and very defined muscles that were now tense as his intense gaze was staring directly at me and Mason.
But I didn't know who he was. I was frozen in the spot and this man was just staring at us with pure hatred in his eyes. But then I realized that the hatred was for Mason. Not me.
"Mine." He demanded.

"Will you continue to disobey me?" he asks, his gaze cool and hard.
"Yes,"
He exhales, raises his hand, and brings it down to slap my naked as again... harder than before. I gasp at the impact. It hurts, but it is so hot, and sexy.
"Will you do it again?"
"No,"
"No, what?"
"No, Sir,"
"Best girl," he brings his lips to kiss my behind while he caresses it softly.
"Now, I'm going to fck you," He sits me on his lap in a straddling position. We lock gazes. His long fingers find their way to my entrance and insert them.
"You're soaking for me, baby," he is pleased. He moves his fingers in and out, making me moan in pleasure.
"Hmm," But suddenly, they are gone. I cry as he leaves my body aching for him. He switches our position within a second, so I'm under him. My breath is shallow, and my senses are incoherent as I anticipate his hardness in me. The feeling is fantastic.
"Please," I beg. I want him. I need it so badly.
"So, how would you like to come, baby?" he whispers.
Oh, goddess!
