Chapter: CHAPTER 4: MAKE LOVE Saffronia POV Pagkatapos niyang pumasok sa kwarto ko at tiklopin ang pinto ay hindi na ako nakapag-isip pa ng iba pa. Agad niya akong hinila papunta sa kanya at hinalikan ako ng sobrang lalim – parang gusto niyang ilipat lahat ng init at pagnanasa na nararamdaman niya sa pamamagitan ng mga labi niya. Ramdam ko yung kamay niya na umaangat mula sa aking baywang papunta sa aking dibdib, hinahawakan ako ng paraang parang ako yung pinakamahalagang bagay sa mundo. “You have no idea what you do to me,” Sabi niya ng mahina habang hinalikan niya ako sa leeg. “Kanina pa ako hindi makapag-concentrate sa sinasabi ng tatay mo dahil iniisip kita iniisip ko kung paano kita hahawakan, paano kita hihikayatin, paano kita bibigyan ng lahat ng kasiyahan na nararapat mong makuha.” Hinawakan ko siya sa mukha at tumingin ng diretso sa mga mata niya – yung mga mata niyang puno ng pagnanasa at pagmamahal. “Then don’t think anymore,” Sabi ko tapos hinalikan ko siya ulit sa labi. “I’m all yours Magnus.

Chapter: CHAPTER 3: PRIVATE MOMENT AND PLAYFUL TEXT Saffronia POV Pagkatapos nilang umalis ni Papa at Ninong Magnus ay agad akong tumakbo papunta sa aking kwarto at tiniklop ko ng mahigpit ang pinto. Hinila ko rin yung kurtina ng bintana para hindi makita ng sinuman kung ano ang gagawin ko. Nakaupo ako sa kama at hawak ang aking cellphone, iniisip pa rin yung mga nangyari kanina sa kusina – yung kamay ni Magnus na gumagalaw sa ilalim ng mesa, yung paraan niya na hinahawakan ako ng parang ako lang ang meron siya, yung ngisi niya na parang alam niyang nagustuhan ko lahat yun. Ramdam ko pa rin yung init sa katawan ko – parang may apoy na naglalagablab sa loob ko at hindi ko alam kung paano ko mapapatay yun. Bumangon ako at pumunta sa salamin, tinitignan ang sarili ko na nakasuot pa rin ng shirt ni Magnus. Sobrang laki nito pero para bang bumabalot siya ng init at bango ng lalaki na iyon. Inayos ko yung buhok ko tapos hinubad ko na lang yung panty ko at itinapon sa kama. Uupo na sana ako ulit nang mapatingin ako sa aking cellphone na n

Chapter: CHAPTER 2: WET UNDER THE TABLE Saffronia POV Pagkarating namin sa bahay ko ay agad kong naramdaman yung kaba sa dibdib ko. Ang kotse ni Magnus ay napakalakas ng makina kaya alam kong narinig na ng mga magulang ko na may dumating na sasakyan. Bago ako makalabas ng kotse ay hinawakan niya ako sa braso at tumingin sa akin ng may ibig sabihin. “Relax lang ha,” Sabi niya sa akin ng mahinahon. “Kung may mangyari man, ako na ang bahala. Basta ikaw, wag kang magpapahalata ng kahit ano.” Tumango ako ng mabilis tapos binuksan ko na yung pintuan ng kotse. Lumabas na rin siya at sabay kaming pumasok sa bahay. Agad kong naramdaman yung tingin ng nanay ko mula sa kusina nakatayo siya doon habang hawak ang kanyang kutsara, at kitang kita ko yung pag-aalala sa mukha niya. “Saffy anak! Nasaan ka naman kagabi? Hindi ka nagtext o tumawag!” Sabi ni Mama at agad siyang lumapit sa akin para yakapin ako. “Akala ko namatay ka na o may nangyari sa iyo! Bakit ka pa gising ng ganito katagal? At bakit naka damit ka ng lalaki?” Nar

Chapter: CHAPTER 1: SIN WITH HIM Saffronia POV Ang unang bagay na naramdaman ko ay yung bigat sa tabi ko na parang punong kahoy na nakapatong sa aking katawan. Bumukas ako ng mga mata pero ang liwanag ng araw mula sa bintana ay sobrang sakit sa mga mata ko kaya muli akong pumikit. Naririnig ko pa yung tibok ng puso ko na parang drumbeat sa loob ng tenga ko, at ramdam ko pa rin yung kakaibang pakiramdam sa buong katawan ko parang pinagtagpi-tagpi ako ng isang taong hindi marunong magtahi. “Good morning, sunshine.” Napamulat ako bigla ng mariin nang marinig yung boses na iyon. Nilingon ko siya at doon ko nakita ang mukha niya si Magnus Saturnino Valencia III o mas kilala ko bilang Ninong Magnus. Nakahiga siya sa tabi ko, nakasandal sa kanyang kanang braso habang nakatitig sa akin ng may ngisi sa labi. Nakatanggal yung unan niya kaya kita ko yung mga tattoo niya sa leeg at balikat isang mahabang bulaklak na rosas na umaabot mula sa kanyang tainga hanggang sa kanyang dibdib, at sa ibaba nun ay isang letra na “S”

The Heir
SYNOPSIS:
In the high-stakes world of the Sterling Group, three half-siblings are forced into a ruthless six-month contest to determine who will inherit their father’s billion-dollar empire. Riley Sterling, the youngest and only legitimate child, is determined to prove her worth through integrity and hard work, despite being constantly overshadowed by her siblings.
Bella Harington, the manipulative eldest sister, sees the contest as her birthright and is willing to destroy anyone—including Riley—to seize the throne. Meanwhile, Kael Ashford, the brilliant but cynical middle child, plays the game from the shadows, driven by a dark secret regarding his mother’s death.
When Bella frames Riley for corporate espionage, shattering her reputation before the contest truly begins, Riley finds an unlikely ally in Kael. They form a fragile alliance to expose Bella’s crimes and uncover the truth about their family’s past. But as they work together in the shadows, their rivalry turns into a forbidden love that complicates their mission.
With time running out and their father’s health declining, Riley and Kael must navigate a web of betrayal, blackmail, and family secrets. In a final showdown, they must decide if their love is strong enough to overcome the legacy of hate they were born into, or if the fight for the crown will destroy them all.

Chapter: CHAPTER 11: ROOTS THAT REACH THE SKYSix months after Tata Pedro’s death and Kael’s fall, the northern highlands woke to the first rain of the new year. Sheets of water washed over the hillsides, turning the soil dark and rich, feeding the hundreds of saplings that now dotted the landscape of Pedro’s Grove. Bella stood at the edge of the community orchard, her boots sinking into the wet earth as she checked each young tree. She’d planted the first one—a gala apple sapling grown from a seed Tata Pedro had tucked into her hand the week before he died—right beside the cracked stone marker that now served as the site’s heart. The marker had been carefully repaired, the crack filled with silver that caught the light like a river of stars. “Still checking on your babies?” Bella turned to see Riley walking toward her, holding a thermos of hot chocolate and a stack of folders. Her sister had lost weight in the months since the tragedy, the lines around her eyes deeper, but there was a steady fire in her gaze that hadn’t bee

Chapter: CHAPTER 10: THE EDGE OF EVERYTHINGTWO WEEKS AFTER THE BETRAYALThe northern highlands were painted gold and green under a crisp autumn sky. The groundbreaking for Pedro’s Grove was set for dawn, and Bella had spent all night making final preparations—checking blueprints, organizing tools, and placing the stone marker Tata Pedro had carved with his own hands at the site’s entrance.Riley arrived as the first light touched the mountains, her face tired but determined. “All partners are here,” she said, hugging her sister. “The media, the village elders, even Minister Chen made the trip. This is going to be everything we dreamed of.”But in the shadows of the pine forest above the site, Kael watched through binoculars—his face twisted with rage. He’d spent the past two weeks gathering what was left of his loyal associates and plotting his final move. He’d forged new documents claiming ownership of the land, bribed a local judge, and hired mercenaries to take back what he believed was his.“They think they can cast me asi

Chapter: CHAPTER 9: BROKEN GROUNDSTHE MORNING OF GROUNDBREAKINGThe mist clung to the northern highlands like silver silk, wrapping around pine-covered hills and clear blue streams that fed the villages below. Today was supposed to be magic—flags fluttered in the crisp mountain air, children chased butterflies between white canvas tents, and the scent of roasting corn filled the air as families gathered to celebrate the start of their new home.Bella stood at the edge of the construction site, running her hand over a carved stone marker—“Built by Our Hands, Grown for Our Future”—that the village elders had made just for today. Beside her, Riley adjusted the microphone stand, her speech tucked into a worn leather notebook she’d carried since the first Green City meeting.“Ready?” Bella asked, grinning as she watched a group of kids trying to climb the big ceremonial shovel.“More than ready,” Riley said. “This is what we’ve been working for—real change, built from the ground up with the people who matter most.”But the

Chapter: CHAPTER 8: THE MASK SLIPSThree months after the Copenhagen summit, the Green City movement was surging forward. Sites were breaking ground across the country, and international partnerships were taking shape. Riley had been working around the clock to coordinate the expansion, and when Kael Vance reached out with an unexpected offer, she hesitated—but ultimately decided to give him a chance.THREE WEEKS EARLIERKael sat across from Riley in the Green City office, his expression humbled and sincere.“I’ve been doing a lot of thinking since Copenhagen,” he said, pushing a folder across the table. “Vance Energy’s investigation uncovered things I never knew about—how far my executives went to protect our profits. I’ve stepped down as CEO, sold off our fossil fuel divisions, and want to use what’s left of the company to support your work.”Riley studied him carefully. “Why now? You were determined to stop us just months ago.”“Seeing what you built—what Bella’s building in the highlands—it opened my eyes,” he said

Chapter: EPISODE 7: HORIZONS AND HAZARDSSix months after the Port Ashton groundbreaking, the Green City model had taken hold across three regions—each site tailored to local needs, each built with community partnership at its core. The invitation to Copenhagen had opened doors to global interest, but as Riley prepared for the summit, a new threat emerged from an unexpected source.Kael Vance leaned against the window of his penthouse office, watching ships move across the harbor far below. The CEO of Vance Energy had built his empire on fossil fuels, and the rapid spread of green building initiatives was eating into his bottom line. His assistant stepped into the room, laying a folder on the desk.“All the data you requested, sir,” she said. “The Green City projects are not only reducing energy demand—they’re attracting major investors away from traditional infrastructure.”Kael flipped through the pages, his jaw tight. “They think they can rewrite the rules of development? We’ve spent decades building this economy. I won’t

Chapter: CHAPTER 6:ROOTS AND WINGSThe morning sun cast long shadows across the construction site in the coastal town of Port Ashton—the first of the three new Green City locations. Riley knelt in the dirt, running her fingers through the soil as a local farmer explained how they’d integrate agricultural plots into the neighborhood design.“These raised beds will let families grow their own food year-round,” Old Henry said, patting the earth firmly. “Even during heavy rains, the drainage system you designed will keep the roots dry.”Liam joined them, holding a tablet with blueprints. “We’ve already trained 50 workers from the area—all certified in green building techniques. They’ll be leading the construction here.”Riley stood up, brushing dirt from her jeans. “That’s exactly what we need. But we’ve got a new challenge—word’s spread fast, and communities from all over are reaching out. We can’t expand fast enough on our own.”Just then, her phone buzzed. It was a video call from Minister Chen, one of the government of
