DAMON POV

ANG tahimik ng buong bahay.

Leah had just finished her breakfast and retreated to her room—well, technically "our" room, but she still refused to sleep beside me. Not that I cared. Hindi ko siya pinilit. This arrangement wasn’t about comfort. It wasn’t about affection. It was about one thing—legacy.

My grandfather built Monteverde Corporation from the ground up. A self-made tycoon, a ruthless businessman, a man who valued bloodlines and tradition over innovation. At sa kabila ng tagumpay ng kumpanyang ito, may isa lang siyang hinihingi sa huling testamento niya:

“The company shall only be handed over to my rightful heir—either by blood or through succession approved by marriage.”

And I refused to let this empire go to my half-brother, Sebastian.

So I made a move.

A calculated one.

I created the website in secret, through Allison, my secretary. It was crass. Desperate. Even unethical. But it worked. And then she came.

Leah Corpuz.

    DAMON POV I WAS never a man of chaos. Every move, every breath, every calculated stare—I’ve always been a man of order. Control. Precision. Kaya nga kahit minsan, parang wala akong kaluluwa, I never cared. Kasi sa mundo ng negosyo, feelings are liabilities. Emotions are parasites. And love? Love is the greatest con of all. But the moment Leah Corpuz entered my house—and by extension, my carefully calibrated world—something began to shift. Hindi ko pa masabi kung ano. Hindi ko pa maamin. Pero ramdam kong may naistorbo. Ngayon, habang nasa balcony ako ng penthouse at pinagmamasdan ang city lights, I swirl the whiskey glass in my hand. Ice clinks. The wind is sharp tonight. Sapat para magising ang kahit sinong tulog sa katotohanan. And yet… I still think about her. That woman with soft eyes and a wicked laugh when drunk. That sweet-tongued girl who had the audacity to smile at me like I’m not a walking storm in a suit. Leah Corpuz. “What the hell are you doing to m

    Leah POV HINDI ko inaasahan na darating siya ng maaga.Nasa dining area ako, nagbabasa ng magazine na nakuha ko sa mini library, nang biglang bumukas ang malalaking glass doors sa gilid. And just like that, Damon Monteverde walked in-still wearing his tailored suit, looking like he owned the damn world.Agad akong napatayo. Reflex na siguro. Kasi kahit walang nagsasabi, parang may unspoken rule dito: pag dumating siya, tumigil ang mundo."Sit down," utos niya, his voice cold but not sharp.I swallowed hard at dahan-dahang naupo ulit.Tahimik siyang umupo sa tapat ko, inalis ang coat niya at pinatong sa likod ng upuan. He loosened his tie, unbuttoned the first two buttons of his shirt. Parang automatic na gumaan ang itsura niya kahit hindi naman nabawasan ang intensity ng presence niya.Hindi ko alam kung paano sisimulan ang usapan, kung dapat ba akong magsalita o hintayin siyang mag-utos ulit. Kaya kunwari, nagbabadya pa rin ako sa magazine kahit hindi ko na naiintindihan ang binabas

    HINDI ko alam kung saan ako lulugar.Every morning, I wake up in this cold, modern mansion that doesn't feel like a home. Lahat ng nasa paligid ko, puro mamahalin-mula sa kutson ng kama hanggang sa marble tiles ng bathroom. Pero kahit gaano ka-kumportable ang mga gamit, I still feel like a guest. Or worse, like a prisoner with privileges.Hindi ko pa rin kabisado ang buong bahay. May ilang pinto akong di pa nabubuksan. Hindi ko rin alam kung anong oras umaalis si Damon, or kung anong eksaktong ginagawa niya sa kompanya niya. All I know is that he's powerful, rich, and dangerously unreadable.At ako? Ako ang kontratang asawa niya."Good morning, Ma'am Leah," bati ng isa sa mga housemaids na si Lita habang papunta ako sa kusina.I gave her a small smile. "Morning.""Gusto niyo po ba ng kape?" tanong niya.Tumango lang ako. "Please. Thank you."Pagkaupo ko sa counter, dumiretso agad ang isip ko kay Damon. Last night, he'd left me speechless. 'You're here because I need you,' yun ang sabi

    DINNER felt like an eternity. Hindi ko alam kung bakit, pero ang bawat sandali na kasama ko si Damon ay parang puno ng pagka-awkward. I felt like an outsider in my own life. Seryoso, paano ako magiging asawa ng isang tao na hindi ko maintindihan? Habang kumakain, hindi siya nagsasalita. Hindi ko siya tinanong kung gusto pa niyang makipag-usap, dahil alam ko na madalas niyang pinipili na maging tahimik. But the silence was loud. The weight of it was crushing. And I hated it. Parang I was supposed to be someone I wasn't, trying to please him in ways that felt foreign and uncomfortable. Pagkatapos ng dinner, we went to the living room. Tumabi siya sa sofa, ang mata niya naka-focus sa cellphone niya. Ako, hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin. Maghahanap ba ako ng libro? Magpapa-sleep na lang ba ako? Pero I felt this urge na magsalita, kahit hindi ko alam kung anong sasabihin ko. "You know," I began, my voice low. "I really don't understand why you need me to do all this." Damon didn

    PAGPASOK namin sa restaurant, lahat ng mata agad ay napako sa amin. At hindi dahil sa akin, ha. Si Damon. Parang siya ang hari sa buong lugar, kahit walang effort na binibigay. Just one look, and people scrambled to make room for him, even the owner came rushing over to greet him. Sinubukan kong hindi mapansin 'yon, pero mahirap. Dahil as much as I hated it, the man had a certain pull. He commanded attention without lifting a finger, and everyone around him seemed to bend to his will. Sabi ko nga, siya 'yung tipo ng tao na hindi kailangang magsalita, pero sa isang galaw lang, nasusunod ang lahat ng tao. Kahit ako, I found it hard not to be affected by it. Pagdating namin sa reserved table, hindi ko napigilang magtaka. Bakit ako nandito? Anong role ko sa lahat ng ito? Hindi ko naman kilala ang mga taong nandito. I was just supposed to be a contract wife, an accessory to this man's life. Wala akong dapat pakialaman sa negosyo niya, diba? Pero that's where I was wrong. Dahil nu
