LOGINAll she wanted was to be loved. What she got was betrayal. Amara Syd is an independent business woman who everyone always expects to be a perfect daughter. She just wanted to feel unconditional love and build a happy family that she hadn’t experienced. But love, she learns, has a cruel way of revealing its true face. Instead of receiving the love that she deserves and always dreaming of, she was being betrayed by her beloved fiancé, Sebastian Calloway. Kicked out from her own company by her own father. And got easily replaced by her stepsister, Isabella Vale. After being betrayed and losing everything she has fought so hard to achieve, Amara is left to fight for herself during the ruins of her once perfect world. The people she trusted the most abandon her in a single night, and the foundation she constructed crumbles beneath her feet. How long will she be able to cope with the problems that will come to her? She runs—not to escape, but to feel. To forget. To burn. And that’s when she meets him. In a haze of rage and ruined dreams, she stumbles into the arms of a mysterious man who will change her life forever–Draven Montelare, a mysterious guy who’s going to offer her a life changing contract. An heir in exchange for taking back her company, her name, and her dignity. He is dangerous. She is lost. Together, they are a storm that can’t be undone. In this perverse game of power, passion, and revenge–can love endure, or will it become another victim of betrayal?
View MoreTahimik ang naging pagbalik namin sa villa. The gala ended so well, and I was so exhausted from pretending.I finally let out a long breath.Sa wakas ay wala na ang mga camera at matang nagmamatyag sa bawat kilos at galaw ko.Draven glanced at me. “You were.. Impressive tonight.”“Was that a compliment?” I asked, there is a trace of tiredness in my voice.“It was an observation,” he said. “But yes, you did surpass expectations.”I shook my head. “You say that as if I were simply one of your investments.”His jaw clenched slightly, but he didn’t deny it.“Tonight was not for you or me, Amara. It was all about control. Power. Reputation. You just proved that you can be a weapon.”“And what if I don’t want to be anyone’s weapon?”“Then you should’ve walked away from that courthouse.”Silence fell. Nakarating kami sa villa niya nang wala na ni isa sa amin ang bumasag sa katahimikang iyon.Tumuloy agad ako sa kwarto ko. Tinanggal ko ang mga jewelry, sapatos, at higit sa lahat ang gown ko.
Everything was still weighing a lot on my chest when I woke up. Muli ay nakatulog uli ako nang hindi ko namamalayan. Hindi na nga ako nakakain ng hapunan.Paglabas ni Draven kagabi ng kwarto ay naligo lamang ako at nagpalit, pagkatapos ay humiga na ako – tumulala, bumuntong hininga, nag-isip nang nag-isip hanggang sa hindi ko namalayan ang pagdalaw ng antok at tuluyan na akong nakatulog.Gusto kong kalimutan ang lahat ng nangyari pero lalo lang akong binabagabag ng mga isipin tuwing mag-isa na lang ako.I had no idea what time it was, but there was no sunlight peeking through the window curtains. Madilim sa labas at dinig ko ang pagpatak ng ulan. I turned to the side, sa bakanteng parte ng kama. Alam kong hindi siya dito matutulog dahil may sarili siyang kwarto, pero hindi ko pa rin maiwasang mapalingon sa pwesto niya. How odd it is to feel so alone even after getting married.Oh yeah, this was just a contract marriage. Nothing more.A faint scent of freshly brewed coffee lingered in
Tahimik ang loob ng munisipyo, maliban sa mga kaluskos ng papel at mga hakbang ng ilang staff na abala sa pag-aasikaso. There were no traditional wedding march, flowers, fancy design or even music – just a few lawyers, a judge, and two people from Draven’s team to serve as our witnesses.I am wearing a simple but elegant ivory silk dress. It fell just below my knees, hugging the shape of my body. No veil nor bouquet.While Draven, on the other hand, is wearing his usual black suit. His tie matched my dress perfectly and I wondered if he planned it or if it was just another calculated move.“Are you ready?” he asked, his voice was too calm. Parang wala lang sa kaniya ang mga nangyayari.“I already signed away my soul this morning. Ngayon pa ba ako aatras?” The corner of his lips lifted in a tiny smirk, but it never made it to his eyes. “Let’s get this over with.”Tumango ako bilang pagsang-ayon. No hesitation. No turning back.Wala sa plano ko ang magpakasal ulit, especially with a ma
“Then marry me.”Nakailang kurap pa ako bago makapagsalita.“A-ano?”“Marry me,” he repeated.“In paper only. It’s a deal. A contract marriage. I’ll help you get your life back, your company, your name.” tahimik lamang akong nakikinig sa mga susunod niya pang sasabihin.“In return, you’ll carry my child. My heir.”Napamaang na lamang ako sa sinabi niya. Hindi ako nakapagsalita.“You help me secure my heir. I help you get your life back. No strings, no feelings, no emotional attachment. Just business.” he said casually.“C-carry your child?!” sa wakas ay nakakuha na ako ng lakas para magsalita.“First you want me to marry you, and you also want me to carry your child?! I didn’t even know your name?!” I saw him pause for a moment. Like he was realizing something just now.“Why would I marry a stranger and carry his chi–!” hindi ko na natapos ang pagh-hysterical ko ng muli niyang pinutol ng sinasabi ko.“Draven. Draven Montelare.”I blinked.“M-montelare? I feel like I heard that surname
