Mère Célibataire

Damar Wirawan hidup dalam penyesalan mendalam setelah bertahun-tahun silam memutuskan mencampakkan istri dan anaknya. Dulu, ia mudah termakan fitnah dan hasutan ibunya, Ratna, serta saudara-saudara tirinya, yang memandang rendah Laras Sasmita. Bagi Ibu Ratna, Laras yang berasal dari kalangan sederhana adalah ancaman besar yang bisa menggagalkan ambisinya untuk menguasai harta warisan suaminya. Dalam kebenciannya, Ibu Ratna bahkan tega melakukan sesuatu yang tak termaafkan—membuang anak Laras yang masih berusia 7 tahun ke tengah hutan, tanpa sepengetahuan siapa pun, semata mata hanya untuk menghancurkan hati Laras. Bertahun-tahun, Laras hidup dalam keterpurukan, bertahan di bawah tekanan Ratna yang kejam dan anak-anak tirinya yang tak kenal belas kasih. Namun, kehidupan Laras berubah ketika ia menemukan harapan baru: anak yang dulu dibuang di tengah hutan ternyata selamat dan kini telah tumbuh dewasa. Bersama anaknya, Laras merencanakan untuk membalas segala kejahatan yang dilakukan keluarga Damar terhadap mereka. Sementara itu, Damar, yang selama bertahun-tahun mengabaikan Laras, akhirnya menyadari kebenaran di balik semua fitnah yang ditanamkan oleh keluarganya. Menyadari kesalahannya, ia kembali ke Laras dengan penuh penyesalan dan permohonan maaf, berharap bisa menghapus luka yang terlanjur dalam. Namun, hati Laras tak lagi sama. Akankah dia menerima kembali Damar yang telah melukainya? Ataukah dendam yang kini menyala akan menghapus semua rasa cinta yang dulu pernah ada?

In our pack, every werewolf can create one moon stone in their lifetime. These stones can enhance our wolf's power and are crucial for becoming Alpha. In my past life, I worked tirelessly to craft my moon stone. I wanted to become our pack's Alpha more than anything. But on the day of the Alpha selection, something went terribly wrong. After absorbing my moon stone's power, I couldn't control my wolf. Instead, my wolf submitted to Katherine, my mate's stepsister. Katherine hadn't always been part of our pack. When she was alone and vulnerable, my mate, Beta Ethan, had convinced me to accept and care for her. The pack erupted in cheers as Katherine became the new Alpha. Ethan, who had always claimed to love me deeply, proposed to Katherine in front of everyone. They sealed it with a passionate kiss. Suddenly, I was public enemy number one. Everyone accused me of stealing Katherine's moon stone, saying that's why I couldn't control its power. Even Ethan, my mate, looked at me with disgust. "Thief," he spat, severing our mate bond on the spot. The pack turned on me. They chased me down, their teeth tearing into my flesh. As I lay dying, my body broken and bleeding, I saw Ethan and Katherine together. They nuzzled each other, whispering sweet nothings while my life ebbed away. In my final moments, I realized a cruel truth. While Ethan's wolf was my fated mate, his human heart belonged to Katherine. But even as death claimed me, I couldn't understand. How could the moon stone I crafted serve Katherine instead? Then, darkness. And light again. I opened my eyes to find myself back in time, one week before the Alpha selection. This time, I made a different choice. Instead of crafting a moon stone, I left the pack to train alone in the volcano. Ethan's voice filled my head through our mind link. He demanded to know why I'd left the pack at such a crucial time. I cut the connection without a word. Shifting into my wolf form, I jumped into the lava.

At 4:00 a.m., my husband, Rocco, gently shook me awake. His voice was a low murmur, . "Alessia, my love, could you do something for me?" But his next words shattered the illusion. "Scarlett is hungry. Go make her some seafood soup." Scarlett was our maid, and she was also Rocco's pregnant goomar. "I just had fresh seafood delivered. Get to the kitchen and make her a bowl of soup. Just for Falcone's heir." I refused, my voice cold. His anger flared in an instant. "Don't be so unreasonable, Alessia." "Is it really so hard for you to make some soup?" I shook my head, silent. He stroked my cheek, a patronizing smile playing on his lips. "Fine, Alessia. So you've learned to defy me now." "Think carefully, Alessia. Do you really want to keep your place as a Falcone?" "And your position as the family's lawyer? Think about whether you still want these… then give me your answer." Seeing the arrogance in Rocco's eyes, the last ember of love I had for this man died. I took out my phone and dialed a number I hadn't called in a long time. "I want out of the Falcone family."
