[COMPLETED :)] [WARNING R19+ CONTENT] "I have eight hours to live." That's the first thing I hear after waking up in the beast world novel I was reading. A pop-up screen flashes in my face: [Welcome, Host! Activate the Baby Making System!] [Task 1: Get pregnant in 8:00:00.] [Penalty for Failure: Horrible Death.] To survive, I have to find a man, any man, and do the deed. As a worthless side character, my options are limited, and my time is running out. I'm forced to make an impossible, desperate choice. I didn't know why the system chose me until after that first, desperate night. In a world where the powerful are sterile, my human body has the highest fertility ever seen. I thought my first task was to survive. I was wrong. That first man was just the beginning. Now, I'm not just a side character... I'm the only hope for this world, and every possessive male from every powerful clan is coming for me. **** If you are looking for a female lead who loves to curse out loud and do whatever the fuck she wants with her life, then this book is for you.

Menjalani kehidupan pernikahan bersama seorang madu bukanlah hal yang mudah. Aku, akan menganggapnya mudah tunggu sebelum Habib akhirnya jatuh cinta pada Farida. Cinta yang tak diinginkan itu datang, memporak-porandakan kehidupan rumah tangga kami beserta perjanjian yang sudah tertulis sebelumnya. Ingat betapa manisnya ucapan Habib ketika berjanji akan menjaga cintanya untuk satu wanita? Bahkan surat perjanjian pernikahan antara Habib dan Farida juga sudah di tanda tangani. Tapi semuanya berubah saat cinta di antara mereka datang. Aku semakin tersisih, hingga Umar datang kembali ke kehidupanku dan membuat kebimbangan pada diri ini. Sejak dulu, Umar selalu menyimpan cintanya untukku. Dia pergi membawa cinta, dan kembali dengan penuh cinta. “Pernikahanku hancur, mas Habib mencintai Farida tanpa sengaja. Apa yang harus kulakukan?” tanyaku pada Umar. “Akhiri saja pernikahanmu dan kembali bersamaku. Kamu tahu, El? Ini adalah sebuah pertanda jika kita memang berjodoh.” Aku terdiam, menahan air mata di pelupuk mata. Pernikahanku tidak lagi di penuhi kebahagiaan, melainkan air mata pernikahan.

Rubi telah resmi menjadi istri dari Jaya Kusumo. Setiap kali berhubungan badan, Rubi kerap mengeluarkan cairan kental berbau busuk dari area kewanitaannya. Hingga pada suatu saat, Rubi mendapat kabar bahwa dirinya mengidap kanker serviks stadium tiga dan divonis tidak akan bisa hamil. Namun, Jaya tak pernah mempermasalahkan hal tersebut. Justri pria 28 tahun itu semakin mencintai istrinya. Mereka kerap menghabiskan waktu dengan segala hal yang berbau romansa. Keadaan itu membuat Anti (Ibu Kandung Jaya) terbakar api. Selain tidak setuju putranya menikah dengan Rubi, Anti juga semakin membenci menantunya itu saat tahu bahwa Rubi divonis mandul. Hingga pada suatu hari, wanita itu menjebak anak serta menantunya sendiri. Sebuah nomor baru menghubungi Rubi dan mengatakan bahwa suaminya sedang sekarat di tepi jalan dekat taman. Rubi diminta untuk segera datang. Di sisi lain, Anti juga mengabarkan Jaya bahwa istrinya sedang berduaan dengan pria lain. Cepat-cepat Anti meminta Jaya untuk hadir di taman yang letaknya tidak jauh dari rumah mereka. Saat berada di sana, Rubi kembali menghubungi sosok pembawa berita tadi. Ia tidak melihat ada tanda-tanda manusia di sini. Namun, hal yang tak terduga terjadi. Tubuh Rubi dipeluk oleh pria tak dikenal. Rubi berusaha mengelak, tapi tenaganya bukan apa-apa bagi lelaki tegap tersebut. Bersamaan dengan badan Rubi yang tenggelam dalam dekapan sang pria asing, saat itu pulalah Jaya datang bersama Anti. Betapa hancur dan terkejutnya Jaya ketika melihat wanita yang disayang sedang berada dalam pelukan laki-laki lain. Anti berakting seolah Rubi memang berselingkuh. Tanpa sepengetahuan Jaya, Mamanya sendirilah yang merencakan hal tersebut. Sejak kejadian itu, Jaya berubah total. Ia mulai tidak memedulikan Rubi. Jaya juga mudah terguncang saat orang-orang mencibir tentang istrinya yang tidak bisa hamil. Dan, di sanalah Anti mengambil kesempatan untuk mendekatkan Jaya dengan Agnes, teman lama Jaya. Tak butuh waktu lama, Jaya langsung jatuh cinta dengan perempuan itu. Keduanya menikah, tapi Rubi tak juga dicerai. Pengantin baru itu membuat Rubi bak pembantu di rumahnya sendiri. Rubi kerap disiksa, disuruh mengerjakan sesuatu yang tidak ia sanggupi. Hingga pada suatu hari, Rubi merasa bahwa penyakitnya semakin menjadi-jadi. Ia tidak ingin membuat beban siapapun. Karenanya, ia ngotot minta dicerai meskipun hatinya tidak ikhlas berpisah dengan Jaya. Dikarenakan Jaya yang sudah puas menzalimi Rubi, ia lantas saja mengindahkan permintaan istrinya itu. Jaya dengan entengnya menalak Rubi di hadapan Agnes. Agnes benar-benar menjadi Ratu di rumah itu. Ia hidup dengan gelimpangan harta. Namun, seketika perasaan ingin menguasai harta Jaya sepenuhnya mendadak muncul. Agnes mulai berpikiran untuk merebut sertifikat rumah suaminya. Suatu malam, Agnes menyuguhkan kopi untuk Jaya. Seberes minuman itu tandas, kepala Jaya mendadak pusing. Pria itu terkapar secara tiba-tiba. Agnes tertawa puas. Rencanaya untuk meracuni Jaya berhasil. Dan, saat itulah Agnes beraksi. Dia membawa sertifikat rumah beserta seluruh emas batangan yang ada di sana. Keesokan harinya Jaya diusir dari kediamannya sendiri oleh orang asing. Rupanya Agnes telah menjual rumah itu dengan harga fantastis. Jaya yang baru saja sadar dari pingsannya, lantas saja dikejutkan dengan kabar buruk itu. Sejak itu, Jaya jadi frustasi. Setelah berhasil menemukan rumah baru Rubi, Jaya bertekuk lutut guna meminta maaf. Sayang seribu sayang, Rubi sudah tidak ingin kembali pada pria itu. Dan, jadilah Jaya semakin depresi. Jaya kerap menghabiskan waktu dengan tertawa, kemudian menangis. Ngomongnya mulai ngelantur. Badannya kurus hanya menyisakan tulang. Jaya dimasukkan ke rumah sakit jiwa. Dua bulan setelah itu, ia dikabarkan meninggal dunia karena mengalami kebocoran lambung. Semenjak Rubi pergi dari sisinya, hidup Jaya jadi berantakan. Ia tidak nafsu makan. Akhirnya pria itu tewas mengenaskan dengan menggenggam foto Rubi yang ia dapatkan dari buku nikahnya dulu.

Long-distance relationships never work for her since she is the clingy sort, spoilt, and enjoys her lover's undivided attention. Additionally, she tends to be flirtatious, although her intentions have never been honest. She has a way of intriguing people and then leaving them once they develop stronger feelings for her. Since she travels a lot for her job as an air hostess, most of her past relationships find it difficult to be apart from her. That all changed when she encountered someone who was just as formidable. The most ignorant woman on earth, yet the most passionate lover. She's determined to make things work this time. Regardless of the distance, that woman belongs to her.

Hi! I am Scarlet. A girl searching for a new beginning after losing two people that I love. Moving to another place and running away from my past that haunted me was the only solution I could think of to survive. However, fate had another plan arranged for me. My life turned more complicated when I met them, Daniel and Nathan. I was not supposed to fall for him, but I did. There was no turning my back on love. Daniel and Nathan were total opposites. Although they were both successful in their own rights, they still possessed different characteristics that made them attractive in their own way. Daniel was the ideal man to love because of his similarity to my brother, Harry. Smart, down to earth, and with a gentle heart. While Nathan was the man to avoid, I could not entrust my heart to him despite the strong attraction we shared. A rich, manipulative and arrogant womanizer. Which one should I choose? Would entering a relationship help me move on from my past? Would our love be stronger than the obstacles in our path? Should I dare hope that I would have a happy ever after? Please give Scarlet a chance. Let her tell you her story. Add her to your reading list. Enjoy. But, what if… something in her past was the key to her future. -------------- "I told you before, I'm now with Daniel," I uttered with conviction, trying to convince him. "I told you that you're making a mistake of stringing Daniel along," he insisted. “It is clear that Daniel is falling for you, but I know you don’t feel the same. He is a good man, and what you’re doing with Daniel would only end badly." "Nathan, let me go," I said angrily, not wanting to be near him. "I don't know what you’re talking about, and you had no business with my affair with Daniel," I emphasized irritably. He released my left hand and gripped my jaw instead, forcing my head up. I tried to push him with my free hand but to no avail. "I'm talking about this." He lowered his head and claimed my lips in a punishing kiss. My mind was fighting not to respond with the onslaught of his mouth, but my body wanted the opposite. He pressed his body even closer than I ever thought possible, molding every inch of my body with his. I felt myself opening up to him, and he took advantage of this and plunged his tongue with mine. I became super aware of every contact of our skin. He adjusted his hands at the back of my nape and the other at my lower back, giving him more control of my body as his kisses became more demanding. My hands started having a mind of their own and began their exploration. I could feel the solid muscles in his arms and shoulders. My hand ended up in the back of his neck, clinging to him for support, as his hands started exploring my back. He slowly broke the kiss, both of us panting, trying to catch our breaths. I never felt like this before, this intense need to be kissed, to be touch. It exhilarated and frightened me at the same time. Why did I react like this to this man? I barely knew him, and I was not even sure if I like him. "I want you and you want me too.” He stated confidently taking my lips again for a rough kiss, and I welcomed it with a hunger I could not deny. I placed my hands on the back of his neck and pulled him closer. "The way you kissed and responded to my touch tells me how much you wanted this too." Finally, he released me and moved a step back. "That just proven my point. How can you go out with Daniel and just made out with me with such passion? Did you respond to his kiss the way you did to mine?" -------------- Thanks for supporting my book by adding it to your library, voting, gifts, to my top fans, and giving your feedback.
