LOGINBack in college, Damian Cross and Alexandra “Alex” Vega shared a reckless kind of passion—one built on stolen nights, whispered names, and a promise that it was nothing serious. No commitments. No future. Just fire. Pero hindi alam ni Damian, that fire left something behind—twins. A boy and a girl Alex raised on her own, telling them their father died years ago. While Damian built his ruthless empire and became one of the world’s most powerful billionaires, Alex buried their past and became a decorated soldier. Until one mission went wrong, leaving her unit dead… and turning her into one of the most sought-after bodyguards in the country. Seven years later, Alex’s world shatters again—her daughter is diagnosed with leukemia. Desperate for money for the surgery, Alex takes the job she almost rejected: protect a billionaire being hunted by enemies. She nearly drops the file when she sees his name. Damian Cross. Damian, on the other hand, isn’t thrilled either. He laughs in disbelief when he’s told his new head of security is a woman—until she walks in. The same fierce eyes. The same fire. The same woman he thought he’d lost forever. Now, Damian must face the truth: the bodyguard sworn to protect him is the only woman he’s ever let too close… and she’s hiding the biggest secret of all—his children. As bullets close in, old wounds reopen, and sparks reignite, Alex must choose: keep the walls she built for seven years, or let Damian back in—and risk breaking more than just her own heart.

The night after the gala still clung to her skin—heavy, restless, unfinished.Then the vibration came again. She glanced. Unknown number.She almost ignored it. Almost but then.The moment she read the message, the air left her lungs.Your twins aren’t safe.No emojis.No explanation.No threat spelled out.Just truth sharpened into a weapon.Alex’s fingers curled tightly around the phone. Her chest felt like it was caving in, heartbeat pounding so loud she was sure Damian would hear it from across the room.No. No. No.She locked the screen, jaw tightening as she forced herself to stand still. Panic was a luxury she couldn’t afford. Fear had rules. And she knew them well.She turned slowly, "Come on, they're okay, they're okay"
"Alex, are you okay?" Claus asked me na may pagaalala.I took a deep breath and form a smile to him. "Don't worry Claus, she's not hard to handle—"“Siya oo, but how about your feelings?“ Carlo interface.“What.. Rafi did you tell them?""Tell us what?" Claus. "Come on Alex, we're friends since the military training. I know you. Hindi kami tanga para hindi mapansin kung anong meron sainyo ni Damian.""Hindi niyo naiintindihan!" I firmly said.“Ang alin? We everything you've done for your kids. For yourself and for everybody! hindi ka namin pababayaang sirain lahat 'yon for this fucking man!" That was Carlo. He barely says something but when he did, alam kong hindi na niya nagugustuhan ang mga nangyayari."Come on, guys. Let's Alex fix what she done. Alam niya ang ginagawa niya. Leave it to her." Rafi said and left. Naiwan ako sa pwesto ko. Naguguluhan ako. Alam kong lahat ng 'to ay pansamantala lang. At kapag naayos na ang gusot ni Damian, babalik na siya sa kung anong buhay ang mero
The morning after last night, Damian and I didn’t exchange a single word that carried the weight of what happened. It was awkward, thick with tension. Every glance from him felt loaded, but neither of us dared to cross the line. I kept busy with my team, ignoring the electricity in the air, pretending that our near intimacy didn’t linger between us.Minutes after the team meeting ended, Rafi caught up to me outside the conference room. His expression was serious, the kind that immediately made me brace myself.“Alex… we need to talk,” he said, lowering his voice as we walked down the hallway.I froze for a second, a hint of panic rising in my chest. My mind immediately jumped to Damian. “About what?” I asked cautiously.“You know what I mean. Yesterday… you and him. I need to make sure you’re… focused—no, i need to make sure everything is still align on your plans.” Rafi said, locking eyes with me. His tone was firm, but I could sense the worry behind it.I blinked, momentarily speech
The morning sunlight hit the lobby through the tall glass windows as I entered the building, hands clutching my bag strap tightly. I had taken an off yesterday just to spend time with Marina and Marcus, but today, work called me back relentlessly. I didn’t want to leave my kids again so soon, but bills, deadlines, and Damian’s constant demands weren’t exactly negotiable.“Good morning, Ms. Cruz!” a secretary greeted, smiling brightly.“Morning,” I replied softly, forcing a polite smile.Employees I passed whispered, some smiled, some pretended not to notice me at all. I could feel their judgment—some because of Damian, others because of jealousy, and a few because of curiosity.The elevator chimed, carrying me up to the top floor where Damian’s office stood like a fortress at the end of the hallway. Most days, I passed by without thinking. Today, my attention sharpened because the door seemed… off.No lights.Curiosity prickled at me. Something in the quiet of the hallway made me paus
