Diana Fallacia Cueva was born into privilege, the heiress to Dairy-Fair Cosmetics, but she refused to be defined by her last name. She dreamed of becoming a world-renowned model on her own terms, free from the suffocating grip of high society. But fate was cruel. Without her knowledge, she was sold into marriage—to Ruther Yanno Wrevco, the ruthless CEO of the world’s most powerful luxury empire. Ruther was everything she despised—cold, controlling, and dangerously untouchable. But what she didn’t know was that her marriage was not a business deal—it was an act of vengeance. Ruther Yanno Wrevco was not the man the world believed him to be. He was Dale Polo Garzias, the last heir of a fallen mafia clan, a family wiped out in a massacre orchestrated by Diana’s father. Adopted and shaped into a powerful force, he had spent years waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Marrying Diana was his final move. She was meant to be his captive, his punishment, his pawn in a game of retribution. But Diana was never meant to fall for the man who destroyed her life. And Ruther was never meant to crave the woman he vowed to break. Their passion was a war, their love an addiction. Yet when Diana discovered the truth—that the real enemy had been within her own family all along—it shattered everything. Bound by betrayal, obsession, and a love neither could control, they stood at the edge of destruction. In a world where power is everything, would they rise as lovers or fall as enemies?

After hearing it. She was stunned. Her mind can't process it nor accept it.
"No! You're lying!" She shouted. Couldn't believe it.
"I wish I am, but I'm not. It's been three months." The woman who had been with her since birth handed her the medical examination report together with the ultrasound.
Ciara's mind went blank when she saw her husband signature on it.
Naikuyom nya ang kamao kasama ang papel na hawak.
She could not hear what the woman was talking about. Ang alam lang nya ay galit sya. Galit na galit.
Nanginginig ang katawan nya sa galit.
At nang maituon nya ang paningin sa babae,
She lost her control.
Lumapit sya rito.
"PAK!" tunog ng pagkakasampal nya sa babae.
"How dare you! I trusted you Jinry! You are shameless like your mother!" she shouted at her out of so much anger.
Hindi pa sya nakuntento, she slapped her again.
Tears are falling through her eyes.
"How could you to this to me .." she whisper.
"What the hell are you doing!?" an angry voice of her mother-in-law appeared at the door.
"Doing what? This?" she said, then slap Jinry at the third time. And she's still not satisfied.
"Your son has a child with my so called soul sister behind my back!" she shouted uncontrollably at her mother-in-law which by now is happy seeing her in pain and hurting.
"Are you satisfied now?" she ask, almost a whisper.
"How dare you shout at me! Wala ka talagang galang! Ugaling squatter!" sigaw din nito sa kanya.
"Are you accusing me? You have no class! Jinry is much more way better than you!" her mother-in-law widen her eyes with disbelief.
"T-tita .." tawag ni Jinry sa mother-in-law nya.
Mukha itong matutumba.
Agad naman itong dinulugan ng ginang at masama ang tinging pinukol sa kanya.
"Look what you did to her! If ever happen to my grandson, I'll tell you, hindi kita mapapatawad!" sigaw nito.
Inalalayan nito si Jinry na umupo sa sofa.
Her face remain emotionless. The pain is suffocating her.
Napahawak sya sa dibdib. Hindi sya makahinga kaya pinagpapalo nya ang banda kung nasaan ang puso nya, to stop it from hurting.
"What the hell is going on here!"
Her mother in law cried. Pero kanina naman ay wala itong luha.
"Zade, anak you came back just in time. Hurry up and take Jinry to the hospital. Ciara is an evil woman. Sabi ko naman sayo anak, masama ang ugali nya. She slapped Jinry, Baka masaktan ang apo ko. Hurry up!" sigaw nito.
Zade did not even took a glance at her, and it pains her more.
Nakatingin lang sya sa mga ito.
Mas lalong naging masakit ang mga susunod na pangyayari.
Zade carry her into a bridal carry.
Nakita nya ang pang iingat sa mga galaw nito.
Nagmamadali itong lumabas.
Napaupo sya. Tears are falling na parang wala itong katigilan sa pag agos.
"See, I told you. You will never be part of this family. Hindi ko hahayaang madumihan ng isang kagaya mo lang ang pamilya namin" huling mga salita ng ginang sa kanya bago ito umalis.
She can't anything like now.
Sobrang sakit. Iyon ang nararamdaman nya.
DIANAI’m screwed. I lost all my senses. Lying in bed, exhaustion clung to me like a second skin. My body ached—a sinful reminder of last night’s reckless decision. I was supposed to despise this man, resist him, yet here I was, watching him, unable to look away. Ruther Yanno Wrevco. My husband. The man who shattered my resolve and made me forget who I was. His broad, sculpted back glistened under the morning light, every muscle carved to perfection as if God himself had taken his time creating him. I should be furious, should regret everything. But instead, my gaze traced every inch of him, memorizing the way he moved, the way he owned every space he stood in. Then, he turned. My breath hitched. His eyes, dark and unreadable, pinned me to the bed, making me feel exposed despite the sheets wrapped around me. “Take a rest, Diana,” he said, his voice low, smooth, almost gentle. “I won’t like it if something happens to you.” My fingers curled into the fabric beneath
DIANAThe moment we step into the private villa, I know I'm in trouble.Ruther slams the door shut behind us, the sound echoing in the dimly lit space. My back barely brushes the cool wall before he's on me—towering, demanding, his body caging me in.His dark eyes burn into mine."You think you can tease me like that, Diana?" His voice is a low growl, dripping with possessive hunger.My breath catches. My pulse skips, then races.I should push him away. I should fight back.But instead?I shudder and m*an. "Hmmmmmm...ohhhh..,"His fingers trace along my jaw, his touch deceptively gentle. His other hand—firm, commanding—trails down, grazing my waist, pressing into the fabric of my dress."Do you have any idea," he murmurs, lips barely ghosting over mine, "what you did to me out there?"I swallow hard. "W-What?"His chuckle is dark, almost mocking. "S*cking my neck like that. M*aning in my ear." His fingers drift lower, skimming the side of my thigh. "Did you want me to lose control?"I
DIANAA strong arm wraps around my waist. A solid chest pressed against my back.My breath hitches.Then—a nuzzle.Soft, slow, deliberate—his lips grazing the crook of my neck as he inhales my scent.My entire body shivers."Bro," Driz muses, watching Ruther's movements with amusement. "I like her."I don't need to turn around. I already know who it is.Ruther.His fingers tighten against my waist—hot, firm, unyielding.Driz lets out a low chuckle, stepping back. "Nice meeting you, Dia. Let's hang out sometime."I barely manage a nod before he walks away, leaving me alone with Ruther.The air between us? Heavy. Charged. Dangerous.Then, he kisses me.Not soft. Not sweet. Demanding.I gasp, pushing against his chest. "What the h*ll is wrong with you? Stop it!"Ruther pulls back just enough to meet my gaze. His eyes? D*rk. H*ngry.He growls—a deep, low vibration that sends an electric pulse straight to my core.I should hate this. I should hate him.But my body? It betrays me. The heat,
DIANASo? I'm not really escaping this bullshit.I sigh, staring at my not-so-excited reflection in the massive vanity mirror.I'm wearing a Gucci silky fitted, one-shoulder, white mini dress. My hair is styled in an elegant fishtail braid, with soft curls framing my face. My makeup? A simple, nude-fairy look—soft, ethereal, but still effortlessly stunning.I should feel beautiful. I should feel excited.But all I feel is trapped."Oh myyy!!! This is it, Diana!!!!"I barely have time to react before Heather bursts into my room, practically vibrating with excitement.Behind her, Von, my ever-dramatic gay best friend, waltzes in with a flourish."Let's go, girl!!" Von sings, dramatically fanning his face. "You are going to snatch Ruther's attention tonight. That man won't know what hit him!"Heather claps her hands like a proud stage mom. "Seriously, Diana, he's so lucky to have you."I let out a dry chuckle, my tone flat. "Yeah. Lucky."Von flicks my forehead. "Ugh, don't sound so dead
DIANAThe next day, my grandparents finally arrived from the U.S.—along with a horde of relatives.At first, I thought it was just a casual family reunion, but when my dad gave me that look, my stomach dropped.Oh no.Is this about my supposed marriage?Soon, the house was filled with laughter and endless conversations. The dining table overflowed with food—lechon, seafood platters, pancit, and desserts that made my stomach rumble.It would've been a pleasant night.Until they arrived. My five cousins. The same five who used to bully me as a child.Great. Just what I needed."Hey, there, Diana! It's true, you've changed a lot!" Clara, the loudest of the bunch, grinned as she eyed me from head to toe."I know, right?" another one chimed in, flipping her hair. "You used to be so awkward and quiet. Now, you look... expensive."I pressed my lips together. Compliment or insult? Hard to tell."Of course," my aunt cut in, beaming. "She's about to marry Ruther Yanno Wrevco, after all! You're
DIANAHaving hope of escaping this marriage is useless.There's a 0.009% chance of getting out of it.Pathetic odds.I'm 25, thriving, and still chasing my modeling dreams—not looking to be shackled to some arrogant, egotistical, walking-red-flag of a man.But fate? Oh, she's a cruel little bitch."You had a dream about him last night, Diana. Looks like you'll be eating your words again."Heather. My ever-so-supportive friend, grinning at me like she already knows my fate.I shot her a glare, my eyes practically screaming shut up. "Excuse me?"She shrugged, sipping her cocktail juice. "You always speak your mind, Diana. Just stop being so problematic."Then, as if she hadn't just ruined my day, she tapped my shoulder and smirked."You two are a match made in heaven."And just like that, she strutted off to her so-called date, leaving me alone to stew in frustration.Match made in heaven, my ass.After finishing my meal in peace at a Korean restaurant, I decided to follow up on my appl
