“Why did you save us?” Lucas asked, his voice unsteady.

Rafael didn’t even look at him.

“Don’t misunderstand,” he said coldly. “I didn’t save you. If Seren hadn’t been dragged into this, I would’ve left you to rot.”

His gaze finally shifted—sharp, cutting.

“Your lives mean nothing to me,” he continued. “The only reason you’re still breathing is that she was willing to throw herself into danger for you.”

A pause.

“For people she still calls family.”

Lucas and Lena lowered their eyes.

  • Owned By the Man She Fears   The Lie Between Love and Truth

    “Let’s talk, Rafael.”Cleo stepped into the De Luna Building just as Rafael arrived at his office. He had come straight from Seren’s parents’ house, still unsettled, still trying to process why Seren refused to see him. At the sound of her voice, he stopped and looked up.It had been months since they last met. The last time was that night he brought her to the hotel. After that, Cleo left for Japan, and he had not even known she had already returned.“What is it?” Rafael asked calmly.Cleo met his gaze without hesitation. “Did Seren tell you anything?”Rafael frowned slightly. “What exactly would she tell me?”Cleo’s expression tightened. “She knows I’m pregnant.”The words hit him like a sudden shock. For a brief moment, Rafael went still, his mind immediately replaying Seren’s tears, her questions, her avoidance. Everything started to co

  • Owned By the Man She Fears   The Last Person I Want to See

    "How is she?" Lena asked as Anna stepped out of her bedroom.Seren had arrived at their house soaked from the rain, standing silently outside the gate. Then, without warning, she had thrown herself into her mother's arms and broken down in tears.She hadn't said a single word. She had cried until exhaustion finally claimed her, falling asleep in Anna's room without even touching her dinner."She's asleep," Anna replied softly as she closed the door behind her.She glanced back toward the room."Do you think she and Rafael had a fight?"Lena looked at the closed door. She wanted to ask her daughter what had happened.She wanted to know what had hurt her enough to leave her in such a state.But she stopped herself.For some reason, she felt she had no right to pry into Seren's pain."Let's just let her rest for now," Lena said gently as she guided Anna downstairs.Anna nodded in agreement. Anyone would be exh

  • Owned By the Man She Fears   The Day Her World Fell Apart

    "What are you talking about?" Seren asked in confusion, slowly sinking back into her seat. She didn't like Cleo's tone.More than that, she didn't like the thoughts forming in her mind."We both love the same man," Cleo said.That single sentence confirmed Seren's worst fear.She didn't want to hear what came next."But you're the one he chose," Cleo continued. "Tell me, are you confident you can keep him by your side forever?""Just get to the point," Seren said, her voice trembling slightly. Her heart was pounding violently against her chest. Fear was beginning to consume her."I'll be taking him back—for myself and for our baby."The moment those words left Cleo's lips, it felt as if a bucket of ice-cold water had been poured over Seren.Did she hear that correctly?Was her mind playing tricks on her?"W-What nonsense are you talking about?" Seren asked, struggling to keep her voice steady.

  • Owned By the Man She Fears   A Conversation That Changed Everything

    As Rafael drove home, his thoughts were in complete disarray. He couldn't stop replaying the events of the previous night. What had happened between him and Cleo?What had he done?Why had he woken up in her bed without any clothes on?The last thing he remembered was drinking the coffee she had prepared for him and suddenly feeling dizzy. The realization made his jaw tighten.He was furious with himself.He was a master strategist---a man who always stayed several steps ahead of everyone else. He was cautious by nature and never lowered his guard.Yet somehow, Cleo had managed to outplay him. And worse, he had fallen victim to such a cheap and obvious trick.He didn't know whether to pity himself or be angry at his own stupidity. For the first time in a very long while, Rafael felt completely unsettled."Rafael!" Seren's voice broke through his thoughts.The moment she spotted his car from the window, she rushed outside

  • Owned By the Man She Fears   Because I Trust You

    “What happened?” Seren asked when she noticed Rafael looking troubled after ending a phone call. They were at home when Rafael received a call from the manager of one of his clubs.“The manager said Cleo is at Club Gemini,” Rafael replied as he turned toward her. “She's drunk.”Seren immediately noticed the concern in his expression.She couldn't blame him.Cleo was his childhood friend. They had known each other for years. It was only natural for Rafael to worry about her.And if she was being honest with herself, Seren was fairly certain the reason Cleo had gotten drunk was because of the conversation she and Rafael had earlier.“Do you need to go see her?” Seren asked.“I'll ask Kim to take her back to her hotel—”“I think you should go.”Rafael stopped mid-sentence and looked at her in surprise. Seren knew very well how Cleo felt about him.

  • Owned By the Man She Fears   A Rival's Declaration

    “Raffy!”Cleo’s cheerful voice rang through the office as she suddenly burst through the door. The moment Seren heard it, she instinctively pushed Rafael away and quickly stood up. Both of them turned toward the unexpected visitor.Cleo froze. Seren froze.Even Rafael looked momentarily caught off guard.For several awkward seconds, the three of them simply stared at one another.Seren had no idea what to do.She glanced at Rafael, only to find that he looked just as surprised by Cleo’s sudden appearance.Rafael’s gaze shifted past Cleo and landed on Kim, who stood helplessly behind her.The assistant looked as though he was having a silent panic attack.Apparently, Cleo had managed to get past him before he could stop her.“What brings you here?” Rafael asked as he rose from his chair and walked toward Cleo.As he passed Seren, he discreetly squeezed her hand, silently reassuring her to stay calm.H

  • Owned By the Man She Fears   The Distance Between Us

    “Do you really think the Sector Leaders will stop pressuring you to marry Seren just because of what you said?” Leon asked as they made their way toward Rafael’s office.“If those old men ever lose their minds, they might end up siding with Eric again,” he add

  • Owned By the Man She Fears   A Different Side of the Mafia Boss

    “Wow!” Seren stared up at the towering skyscraper before her, unable to hide her amazement.The moment she stepped out of Rafael’s car, her eyes were immediately drawn to the massive De Luna Group headquarters rising into the sky. It was her first time seeing the building

    As a token of gratitude, Rafael sent the surviving terrorist back to the Bianchi headquarters. Alive. But barely. They hadn't killed him.They had simply made sure he suffered enough to understand what happened to those who crossed Rafael De Luna.When the package arrived, several B
