LOGINShe was sent to destroy him. A man feared in the shadows, a mafia lord whose name alone commanded power and blood. Serafina Dunes had one mission: send Rapheal Dekoms to hell. Murdered by her husband’s mistress, Yuanita Serra was ripped from life before her time—only to be reborn as a missionier, and her first task was to kill Rapheal Dekoms. But fate had other plans. What was meant to be a deadly mission became a dangerous game of desire and hate, where every glance and every touch ignited a fire she couldn’t control—and threatened to unravel everything he had ever built.
View MoreRAPHEAL Early morning had me banging on the massive front door of the villa my dad had gifted my mom on her twenty nineth birthday, while dialing her line for the untemnpth time which directed to her voice mail again. ‘Helen Dekoms here. Leave a message after this.’ With pent-up anger, I let out a groan of frustration, pressing the door bell and almost cursing her out. “Mom, we need to talk!” All my efforts were like water being poured on stone. My mom was determined on shutting me out, even going as far as changing the security passcode to the villa. I knew the place had a backdoor and another basement escape route, but there was no way I could decipher it without the building plan, which was stuck in there with my mom. My hand combed my hair, messing up the neatly arranged curls as a sigh of exasperation escaped my lips. “Mom! I know you are in there!! Just let me in so we can talk. I understand your feelings and..” The rest of my pleading were cut short by R
RAPHEAL Every family has a black sheep. Someone who acts out of order and puts the others at unease for a while. It's not a constant occurrence but their actions always have their name seeping from it. Like a default setting, they get triggered by situations and go off like the ticking bombs they are, oblivious that their actions might cause harm to others. The title is borne by a child in most cases, making it easier to tame them. But in a case where the black sheep is the mother, things are different. Between the loud throbbing of my heart, the uncontrolled racing of my car and the sweat breaking out in my body, I had no clue on which to attend first. Given the incident with Emilia, I figured my mom would try to get back at me for defending Serafina. But turns out I underestimated how low she could go. Especially now that she had nothing to lose. The call with Ruben had been enough to pull me out of my reverie of Sera and Yuanita. I didn't wait for him to finish before
RAPHEAL. Forty five minutes later, I was able to land the craft at the rooftop helipad of my private villa, which was surrounded by other buildings. Last night after our small rendezvous under the stars, Serafina managed to catch a little sleep after which she had jolted awake again, still drunk. She had engaged me in a small discussion where she slipped a small talk about wanting to visit the snow forest and ocean tower in the city of Ropps, almost making me reminisce about visiting those places with Yuanita. They were her favorite places. Even though I was conflicted between the striking similarities between Serafina and my late wife, I couldn't deny the growing feelings I was beginning to have for her. That explains the shock on Ruben's face when I had called him to book both places for today. As I stole small glances of her during the flight, I noticed that despite her testiness, she was slowly letting her guard down and enjoying the scenery. I couldn't wait for her react
SERAFINA. On normal mornings, I woke up to the chirping sound of birds and lucky days, aroma of food seeping through the massive wrought door of the room I shared with Rapheal. But when things changed between us, I began to wake to the sound of slow music in the room, an aromatherapy candle and a more engaging aroma. It would have been the same today, except my brain was threatening to explode right through its cranium. Hazily, I forced my heavy eye lids open and turned on the lights, which gave me an unexpected jolt of my memories from the previous night. It made a small smile cross my lips. Nothing better than a feel good moment of your plans coming to perfection. My eyes searched for my home flip flops which I casually slipped into and went ahead for a needed shower. Rapheal was already out of bed and given the circumstances surrounding the house, he must be basking in the kitchen, whipping up something good. The thought made another smile tug at my lips. But on reali
RAPHEAL. For someone like me, there was nothing like heaven. I realized this when I first committed murder at the age of fifteen. I had no redemption, until I met Yuanita. She tried to fix me, pouring every part of her into me. But I was too broken to be fixed. However, as I stared at
SERAFINA. I got into the car to meet Delanxy's blue eyes, buried in her ipad. She was exquisitely dressed in a long wrap skirt and brown aesthetic top. Her make up which clearly screamed ‘don’t mess with me’ was aided by her channel bag and Valentino boots. “Hey.” I greeted, enveloping h
RAPHAEL While her hand was dangerously clasped in mine as she headed for the front porch, my mind struggled to comprehend what had just happened. It felt like a dream, a dream no one ever imagined could happen. My mom, Miranda Dekoms was the power house of my lineage. Nothing and no one
SERAFINA. The mirror never lied. As I sat before my vanity table, slowly applying my makeup, I couldn't help but stare at my true form that gleamed back at me. Eyes blazing bright red. A dark shadow with sword stretched behind me. Rose tattoo blinking on my chest. Thankf
