Setelah lima belas tahun menikah, kami tetap bercinta setiap hari. Apakah itu salah? Bagi Rati, istriku, iya. Dia bilang cinta bisa dibuktikan dengan cara lain, selain seks. Bagiku, cara semacam itu hanya dilakukan oleh pria lemah. Karena segala hal di dunia ini didasari oleh ketertarikan seksual dan bercinta adalah bukti cinta yang paling kuat yang bisa ditunjukkan seseorang kepada pasangannya. Jika memang Rati tidak percaya, aku akan membuktikannya. Lagi pula, sejak status sosialnya meningkat, dia semakin bertingkah di hadapanku dan selalu menolak ketika kuajak bercinta. Kalau tidak mendapatkan darinya, bukan salahku jika aku mencari di luar, kan?

Aria Blackstone spent three years praying for a miracle. The day she finally saw two red lines, she thought her life was complete. Instead, it ended. Dragged out of her husband’s mansion. Accused of trying to kill another woman’s child. Humiliated. Thrown away like nothing. And on a cold, lonely roadside… Aria lost the baby she had begged the universe for. Her husband never looked back. But someone else did. Aiden Blackstone... Gabriel’s estranged and untouchable billionaire stepbrother. A man who should have hated her. A man she barely noticed standing in the shadows of her broken marriage. A man who carried her bleeding body into his hospital… and into a world she never knew she deserved. With nowhere left to go, Aria must rebuild her shattered life inside Aiden’s mansion, unaware she is stepping straight into the heart of a man who has silently watched her fall apart for years. Gabriel wants her back. Aiden wants her safe. And Aria must choose between the billionaire who destroyed her… and the billionaire who saved her.

Mia James needs a lifeline—fast. Accused of stealing company funds, she’s on the brink of losing her job when billionaire Adrian Knight offers her an unexpected way out: a contract marriage. Marrying him will clear her reputation, and for Adrian, it means silencing rumors, handling the press on his terms and fulfilling his grandfather's last wishes. It’s strictly business... or so they both say. Their plan seems simple enough: smile for the cameras, keep the story airtight, and definitely don’t fall for each other. But when Mia’s furious ex crashes their first press conference, she's forced to get closer to Adrian than she'd ever imagined. Suddenly, staged kisses feel dangerously real, and “pretending” becomes harder with every look they share. Now, Mia’s balancing a fake marriage, a very real connection with Adrian, and the risk of her entire world unraveling. With secrets on both sides and her heart on the line, can she keep her cool—or will they both get swept up in the game they started? In this rollercoaster of passion, scandal, and deception, Mia and Adrian are about to learn that in love and life, nothing ever goes exactly as planned.

Chief Secretary na maaasahan lagi sa umaga, at isang nakakaakit na kasalo sa kama tuwing gabi—iyan ang buhay ni Bona Sobrevega sa mga bisig ni Sean Fernandez. Matapos ang tatlong taon na pagsasama at pag-aalaga sa isa’t isa, inakala ni Bona na pantay ang nararamdaman nila. Kung kaya’t nang alukin niya ang lalaki ng kasal, hindi niya inaasahang guguho ang mundo niya nang sabihin nitong walang halong pagmamahalan ang samahan nilang dalawa maliban sa kanilang mga katawan. Mula noon, umiwas na siya’t tinalikuran ang buhay kasama ang lalaki. Umangat ang kanyang karera at naging isang tanyag na abogada na walang tumangkang kumalaban sa kanya sa komunidad. Dumami ang mga manliligaw at dito’y nagkukumahog na gumapang pabalik sa kanya, puno ng pagsisisi, ang lalaking minsan na niyang minahal ilang taon na ang nakalilipas. Ngunit sa mga pagkakataong ito—wala na siyang nararamdaman para dito.

Three years ago, on what was supposed to be the happiest day of her life, Lynell Gibbs was left completely broken. It was her 20th birthday — a day she had been so excited for — but instead of candles and wishes, she got heartbreak. Shaun Hernandez, the guy she loved with all her heart, broke up with her. No fight, no warning. Just a simple, cold explanation: “Nagising na lang daw siya at narealize na hindi na niya ito mahal.” Those words haunted her for years. And no matter how strong she tried to be, the pain left a scar too deep to forget. But she survived. She stood up, rebuilt herself piece by piece, and slowly became the woman she never thought she could be — stronger, wiser, and even more beautiful. Gone was the naïve girl who gave everything to someone who didn’t deserve her. She had learned her lesson. She moved forward and opened her heart again. That’s when Martin came into her life — kind, respectful, and everything Shaun wasn’t. For the first time, she felt safe. Finally, she believed she had healed. Until one unexpected announcement shattered her peace. Their company was under new management. At first, she didn’t think much of it — change was normal. But everything came crashing down the moment she heard the name of their new CEO. Shaun Hernandez. The same man who once tore her apart... was now her boss.

"Enid knows that something is wrong with Asher. He doesn't...want her? That can't be possible. The mating bond doesn't allow that. So, what is wrong? With her? No. Something else. Something darker...more sinister, tugs at the back of his mind, telling him, that she can't be his. And she would get to the bottom of it. Because this alpha is hers."

Biya tahu permintaannya gila. Siapa yang waras meminta sahabat kakaknya sendiri untuk mengajarinya berciuman? Namun, keberanian polos itu justru mengubah segalanya. Bagaswara, direktur dingin itu, seharusnya menolak mentah-mentah. Tapi tatapan Biya—adik sahabatnya—mampu meruntuhkan logikanya. “Bisa ajarin aku, nggak?” “Selama saya bisa. Ajarin apa?" “Ajarin aku… ciuman.” Satu kalimat itu menyeret Biya ke dunia bahaya dan gairah yang tak pernah ia bayangkan.

"Ouch, ang sakit ng ulo ko," daing ko habang hawak ito. Para itong binibiyak sa sobrang sakit. Dahan-dahan akong nagmulat ng mata at umupo. "Teka, nasaan ako?" Ang huli kong natatandaan ay nasa bar ako at nagpapakalasing upang makalimot. Niloko kasi ako ng long time boyfriend ko pagkatapos ng tatlong taon naming relasyon. At para panandalian makalimutan ang sakit ay nagpasya akong magpunta sa bar para aliwin ang sarili ko. Napasinghap ako sa gulat ng mapagtanto ko na wala akong saplot. "Bakit nakahubad ako?!" Bulalas ko habang kipkip ang katawan ko ng kumot. Wala akong suot na bra, kahit panty ay wala, ang nakakabahala ay masakit pa ang gitna ko... palatandaan na may nangyari na hindi dapat. Nanigas ako ng maramdaman na may gumalaw sa tabi ko. "Oh no..." Ayokong lumingon dahil kinakabahan ako. Pero kailangan kong kumirmahin ang hinala ko, kaya dahan-dahan akong lumingon. Umawang ang labi ko sa gulat ng makita ang huling tao na naisip kong makikita ko. S-si Sir Elijah, ang CEO at boss ko! May nangyari sa aming dalawa! Ang unexpected sex naming dalawa ay nauwi sa kontrata ng kasal at sa loob ng isang taon ay pag aari niya ako.
