Chapter 15: Coax and Manipulate Her Back into SubmissionBriella’s POV--“Tell me, what the hell is this about?” Xander asked sharply, his brows furrowed as he looked at the three of us.Cecile rolled her eyes. “Couldn’t you have at least let us sit down first, Xander?”I bit back a smirk at her sarcasm and took the opportunity to sit down without waiting for permission. Let him stew.“Have a seat,” Xander muttered, settling onto the long sofa adjacent to mine. Mr. Puerto and Cecile followed, sitting across from us, facing him directly.“Perhaps now,” he added, voice already edged with impatience, “you can tell us your real intention?”I stayed quiet, watching everything unfold. I prob

Chapter 14: Stop Hurting Our BabyBraun’s POV--I was looking deeply into reviewing the new contracts when my assistant entered my office.“Mr. President, Madam Briella’s press conference has started,” he informed me.I looked up from the documents, my mind shifting immediately.“Turn on the TV,” I said without hesitation. I needed to see how my wife would handle the press and face the vultures disguised as reporters.We both knew how brutal the media could be in this industry. One wrong word, one misstep, and they’d tear you apart. If you couldn’t stand your ground, you wouldn’t survive.“Did you send a lawyer to X-Trends?” I asked Luigi, my tone serious, my eyes glued to the screen.

Chapter 13: Those Times Are OverBriella’s POV--“Stop this nonsense at once, Briella! What you’re doing isn’t right anymore!” Xander shouted at me, his voice sharp with anger.I stood up and faced him proudly. “You’re right. I do need to stop this nonsense and make the right decision for once. I’ve got to go. The reporters are waiting for me outside.”I glanced at Mr. Cayab, who was still reeling from everything I had just revealed.“If you think you can defeat me, Briella, you’re mistaken! I won’t lose to a loser like you!” Matilda spat, her voice dripping with fury.I stared at her without flinching, locking eyes with the woman who once thought she could break me.I’m not backing down. Just

Chapter 12: I’ll Wipe That Ugly Smile Off Your FaceBriella’s POV--The next morning, I prepared myself for what was supposed to be the biggest farce of the week, the public apology. Xander had sent me a full email script outlining every word I was expected to say in front of the press. Of course, I didn’t even bother opening it. I had no intention of following his orders. I wasn’t his puppet anymore.Besides, I had already spoken to the stockholders connected to my friend. They promised to back me up. I wasn’t alone in this.“Good morning,” President Braun greeted as he stepped out of the bathroom, clad in nothing but a towel hanging dangerously low on his hips.Sweet heavens!My eyes immediately drank in sight before me, his c

Chapter 11: Heart, You Need To Stop Bleeding For The Wrong ManBriella’s POV--By five in the afternoon, I received a text from Braun and immediately started preparing to leave, much to Chelsey’s surprise.“You’re leaving already?” she asked, raising an eyebrow.“Yes, I need to take care of something at my new place,” I replied, slipping on my jacket.“You’re moving? Why?” she asked, her tone laced with concern.“There are just too many memories in that house, ones I need to forget,” I said honestly. “Once I move out tonight, you can move in tomorrow. I’ve paid the rent for a full year, and it would be a waste if it just sat empty.”“Where are you staying now?” she asked again, worried.

Chapter 10: I’ll Show Them How to Get My Revenge ProfessionallyBriella’s POV--“Tell me the truth. What kind of mess are you making, Briella?” Xander asked me, his voice sharp and his face stern. “I’m not pleased with your antics.”“What?” I replied, tilting my head, pretending not to understand, even though I knew exactly what he was referring to.“Stop this bullsht at once, Briella. What are you so angry about? Because I didn’t show up at your house?” he snapped, his eyes boring into mine.I smiled sweetly, keeping my tone calm. “Believe me, if I were mad at you, I wouldn’t be sitting here, smiling at you.”“Then why did you cause that scandal?” he pressed, his eyebrows rising as if he already knew the answer.

Chapter 3: Marry Me, Claire FontamiranoClaire’s POV--Halos mabingi ako sa lakas ng pintig ng puso ko nang pumasok sa isang basement ng malaking gusali ang sasakyan ni Sir Calyx.

H-Hindi naman napatunayan na totoo iyong binibintang nila sa’kin!” pag-alma ko.I was accused of cheating and copying someone’s project proposal. Walang makuhang ebidensya mula sa akin kaya hindi iyon napatunayan at isa pa ang daming nakakaalam kung paano kong pinaghirapang gawin ang ginawa kong proposal na iyon!“I’m sorry but I can’t do anything, Claire.

Chapter Three: RebornI shut my eyes tightly and called upon the Goddess of all Chosen Lunas. I refuse to die like this!“I am not ready to die! Please hear my prayer, Goddess Lunaria! I beg you, I don’t deserve this tragic end! I was framed and condemned without justice!” I cried, my voice trembling with rage as I whispered a desperate prayer, chanting the words with all the strength left in my lungs.“Oh, Goddess of the Moonlit Veil, Mother of Rebirth and Purity, Lunaria, heed my wail. By fang and claw, by blood and bone, Let me rise, though I am gone. Silver light, reshape my fate, Drown my love, ignite my hate. Banish mercy, steel my heart— From my ashes, tear me apart.”A powerful thunderclap roared across the sky as my final word echoed into the void. But I didn’t stop. I continued chanting, even as my voice shook.“Storm and shadow, heed my plea. Unshackle wrath and set it free. Let my howls tear through the night. Let my enemies quake in fright.”I groaned as my body began to

Chapter 02: The Fall of the LunaI turned to my family and relatives, desperately hoping for their support, but they averted their gazes and treated me like a complete stranger.“Marion, I haven’t done anything wrong! Someone set me up. The accusations against me aren’t true!” I cried out, my voice shaking. But before I could finish, Therese appeared, flanked by several members of her pack.“W-What are you doing here?” I asked, suspicion thick in my voice.Like me, Therese was a Luna, the daughter of a powerful Alpha from a prestigious pack. Her rare ability to see the past of anyone she touched made her revered and considered one of the goddesses chosen. But unlike me, she lacked strength. I surpassed her in almost every way, and perhaps that was why she despised me so deeply.I had caught her countless times trying to seduce Marion, sneaking into his chambers when she thought no one was watching. If not for the wolves loyal to me, I wouldn’t have known or stopped her from making tho

Chapter 01: BetrayalLyra’s P.O.V.--I woke up to the warmth of Marion’s kisses on my back. Smiling, I turned to face him. Our lips met again, and if I hadn’t restrained myself, it might have led to another round of heated lovemaking.Marion is my Alpha—the newly appointed leader of our Silverfang pack. And I am the chosen Luna, selected by our ancestors, the rightful one to stand beside him.We’ve been together for almost two years, and I can confidently say that we love each other. Although we haven’t bonded yet, it was never an issue for me. What mattered most was Marion achieving his dream of becoming our pack’s leader, and I supported him wholeheartedly. I stood by his side, protecting our pack through every war and battle.“Just one more time, Lyr,” Marion whispered, his voice low and husky as his hands wandered boldly over my body, exploring every inch.A soft moan escaped my lips when his touch reached my most sensitive spot. A surge of heat coursed through me, and I surrende
