Erin Sanders

L'ultima Guerra: First Branch

Aeternis, sebuah dunia yang diliputi keajaiban dan teka-teki, kini perlahan melangkah ke ambang kehancuran. Sesuatu yang tak terbayangkan dengan pasti bangkit dari kegelapan dunia, membawa kekeringan pada tanah yang mereka injak dan kehancuran pada setiap kehidupan yang mereka sentuh. Organisasi rahasia yang menyembunyikan identitas mereka, Voo'dvelthar memburu sesuatu yang mereka sebut "Kepingan yang Hilang"—fragmen kuno yang dipercaya memiliki kekuatan untuk membangun ulang dunia, namun dengan harga yang tak seorang pun ketahui. Di benua selatan, Kerajaan Mortisvale menjadi buruan pertama dari organisasi rahasia ini. Kekacauan melanda tanpa ampun, menghujani tanah itu dengan darah dan air mata. Perjuangan Afanas Anastasius, putra sulung raja Mortisvale, bersama Lucian, seorang elf dengan hati yang terluka dan Lucius, seorang ahli pedang dengan rahasia masa lalu. Mereka bertiga mati-matian memperjuangkan tanah mereka, melindungi penduduk, sekaligus menjaga "Kepingan yang Hilang". Namun, tanpa kehadiran Vlad Anastasius, putra bungsu yang hilang dari Mortisvale, perjuangan terasa begitu berat, bagai memanjat tebing tanpa ujung. Semakin mereka melangkah ke dalam konflik, semakin nyata pula bahwa Voo'dvelthar bukanlah satu-satunya ancaman. Sesuatu yang jauh lebih tua dan tak terkatakan mulai menampakkan wujudnya—sebuah kekuatan yang melampaui logika, bahkan melampaui sihir yang mereka kenal. Di hadapankan pengkhianatan yang menyakitikan, pertarungan yang menghancurkan, tangisan pilu, dan secercah kebahagiaan singkat, para pejuang akhirnya di hadapkan pada kebenaran yang mengerinkan. Saat kiamat perlahan menjadi kenyataan, satu pertanyaan tersisa menggantung bagai bayangan Mortisvale: Apa yang terjadi jika takdir benar-benar dihapus? Apakah kebebasan sejati atau kehancuran abadi di balik semua ini? Pada akhirnya, sebenarnya apa yang membuat dunia ini layak untuk diperjuangkan?

My boss is my spec

Natalie Sanders is an ambitious, self-reliant woman who is not interested in love. She is totally focused on her work. She doesn't have time for romance and won't put up with conceited men's inflated egos. But when she meets Alexander Pierce, her new boss—a rich CEO with a stunning body, a captivating presence, and a cool, collected manner—everything changes. He's everything Natalie hates in a man: conceited, elusive, and wholly unreceptive to the concept of love. Love, in Alexander's neatly ordered life, has always seemed like an unneeded distraction. His family is a wealthy and influential dynasty, and they have always expected him to abide by their norms and uphold the family's prestige by selecting the perfect spouse from their upper social circles. That woman is Amelia, the secretive and aspirational executive who has long courted the respect of Alexander's family by positioning herself as a possible daughter-in-law. Amelia is also Alexander's ex-girlfriend, something Natalie is unaware of. Despite their differences and Alexander's aloof demeanor, Natalie and Alexander are brought together for a significant project that requires them to collaborate closely for extended periods of time. As they start to look past each other's outward appearances, an irresistible attraction develops gradually. Natalie finds herself falling for her employer despite her constant resistance to it. Alexander, for the first time, feels his carefully crafted barriers breaking as he battles to keep his emotions in check. But when Amelia, who has been fighting for Alexander's favor and attention, tries to meddle, things get messy. The social and class divide between Natalie and Alexander threatens to break them apart, especially as Amelia is already seen by Alexander's family as the perfect match. Since she is not from a wealthy or powerful family, Natalie must deal with the painful fact that Alexander's family would not accept her. David, Alexander's flirty cousin and a womanizer, intrigues Natalie and adds to the tension. David puts his eyes on Natalie, seeing her as another acquisition, not seeing the blossoming bond between her and Alexander. His progress leads to more problems, especially after he finds out the reality of Natalie and Alexander's connection. Angry because of the secrecy and consumed by envy, David is determined to sabotage their emerging relationship by leveraging his power within the family to create more obstacles for them. Natalie and Alexander must handle their escalating emotions for each other while dealing with family demands, David’s interference, societal influences, and Amelia's continuous efforts to sabotage their bond as tensions increase. Ultimately, they both have to choose whether they are ready to battle for their love, even though the chances are heavily against them. "My Boss is My Spec" is an engaging love story that includes surprises, conflicts, and scenes of intense emotion, following the journey of two individuals from diverse backgrounds attempting to connect with each other, discovering that true love is not about control or social standing but about one's emotions.

Ava has secretly had a crush on Alexander, the only son and heir of the Sinclair empire, since she was 15, but she never expects to marry him, not even in her wildest dreams. However, her soon-to-be happiness turns to misery, as their marriage isn’t what she dreams of. Alexander marries her out of spite to hurt his overbearingly selfish and self-centred mother, Evelyn Sinclair, who despises Ava because of her low status as a driver’s child. Ava knows that Alexander does not marry her for love; she doesn’t know the reason why, but she has read books where the male lead falls in love with the female lead after marriage, and she hopes her marriage will be the same. However, after the wedding, Alexander becomes colder and more distant, never explaining why he is always away. Ava’s hope of Alexander liking her back slips further and further out of reach as she is left alone to face the cruelty of the Sinclair household, particularly from her so-called mother-in-law and the maids, led by Madame, the head maid. One day, when Alexander is away as usual, Evelyn orders the maids to lock Ava in a storage room without food or water to remind her of her position in the family. Starved and weakened, Ava knows she won’t last much longer under this torment. In her final moments, Ava prays for a second chance at life before she dies, vowing to change her fate and seek revenge on those who wronged her.

Waitress in the day, Vampire at night

*Excerpt* "Argh..." Ellie forced herself to stop moving, and she pushed the man dragging her away by her arm with all the strenght she could muster. "Aren't you listening to me? He's only a child. Please." she pleaded. The man was as solid as a concrete wall, and although he barely moved a step away despite the force she used in pushing him, her actions seemed to have made him stop dragging her. Or maybe not. Because the next second, she heard the sound of the sole of a shoe hit the ground, then another, and another... Turning around in apprehension, she realized the painter had finally turned from his painting and was walking toward her. Her bones froze instantly. His face... She had no words to describe how beautiful he was, even though his skin was almost white. His dark brown hair fell over his forehead, almost covering his dangerously cold dark grey eyes. His steps were slow and majestic, making him look like a top ranked demon walking out of hell with just one agenda — to end her miserable life. He reeked of bloodlust, and the aura around him radiated death and destruction. The hairs on her skin stood up in reaction to the threat approaching her, and knowing she couldn't outrun him, she fell on her knees. "P-please, I-im s-sorry for disturbing you a-and pushing him. My brother is only a child. He's sick and I'm the only one he has. If you must imprison me, then I beg you to at least take him to an orphanage." Ellie pleaded, stuttering for the first time in her life, her eyes fixed on the floor. A moment later, she felt a cold finger touch her chin, pushing her head. When that was done, he took off her mask, exposing her face. Ellie's heart was beating wildly by this time. There was no trace of warmth, neither did any emotion register on his face upon seeing her complete facial features. It was just plain, cold, blankness. "You are in no position to make demands." His lips finally moved, and the words that came out of his mouth crushed Ellie's heart. "It's not a demand. Just a request. I don't want him to die." She persisted. "What makes you think I would grant such a request?" "Because it's the right thing to do." Ellie gave the obvious answer, but his face twisted like she just spit poison at him. "Do I look like someone who gives a fuck about doing the right thing?" "No!" Ellie answered truthfully. "I'm sorry. I made a mistake. Saving my brother is not the right thing. It is the wrong thing. In fact, I can assure you it is the wrongest thing to do." She made a quick U-turn, and the painter's brows flew up in surprise for just a second, before his next order jumped out of his mouth. "Take her away." *** Life dealt Ellie Sander a cruel blow when her parents suddenly died in a car crash, leaving her to cater for her five year old anaemic brother, whose ability to walk was affected by the same crash. With no money, no stable job, and no help coming from anywhere, she was forced to take advantage of the insecurity in their town to fend for herself and her brother. Being a waitress in the day and a fake Vampire at night, she raised enough money and all went well until one night when she met with the real vampire, and her freedom was taken away.
