A Path To The Murky Place

“Ang bata lang naman ang dahilan kung bakit nanatili pa rin ako. Pero ngayong wala na ang baby, maghiwalay na tayo.” — KARINA BERMUDEZ KARINA BERMUDEZ, a college working student, took responsibility for her younger siblings. Bilang isang panganay na ayaw mahiwalay sa mga kapatid niyang puro lalaki, pilit niya silang binubuhay nang walang hinihinging kahit ano sa kanilang mga magulang matapos maghiwalay ang mga ito. She despised her parents for ruining their almost perfect family. By night, she works at the VIP Hotel, where she met the man who would change everything about her—LUTHER MENDEZ, a man in his 30's who had no interest in relationships, but accidentally slept with her. What will Luther do if he finds out that he got her pregnant? Will he take responsibility? And will she be ready to be with someone she's not even familiar with?

Elle n’a jamais été censée être la mariée. Elle était le sale secret gardé dans l’ombre. Elena Rossi était la remplaçante. La fille « sans loup ». La déception. Sa sœur, Sofia, était l'enfant en or, la rare Omega destinée à unir le monde criminel fracturé en épousant Dante Vane. Dante est l'Alpha du Syndicat Vane. Un prédateur mortel en costume. Il ne veut pas de femme ; il veut le territoire que sa dot lui apporte et la lignée rare nécessaire pour renforcer les effectifs en baisse de sa meute. Il veut qu'une reine obéissante engendre un héritier. le jour du mariage, Sofia disparaît. Pour sauver leur famille de la colère de Dante, Elena est enfilée dans la robe blanche. Elle est obligée de marcher dans l’allée vers un monstre qui pense épouser un ange, et non vers la femme rebelle et à la langue acérée qu’il méprise. Dante Vane découvre la supercherie trop tard. L'encre est sèche. Le vœu est scellé. Maintenant, il est coincé avec la mauvaise sœur. Mais Elena a aussi un secret. Son sang évoque le côté sauvage du rival de Dante, son frère instable et exilé, Luca. Maintenant, deux Alphas l'entourent. On la possède sur le papier ; l'autre veut la voler pour détruire l'héritage de son frère. Piégée dans un penthouse avec un mari qui la déteste et un désir qui défie le contrat, Elena réalise que le plus dangereux n'est pas la guerre mafieuse à l'extérieur. C’est ce qui se passe lorsque les lumières s’éteignent et que Dante décide que s’il a payé pour une épouse, il va l’utiliser. "Tu as signé le contrat, Elena. Tu portes sa bague. Alors tu prendras sa place dans mon lit, ou je brûlerai la maison de ton père.

Plaque!!! A slap landed on my cheek, I don't know how many times I have experienced something like this, I really can't stand it anymore, my God, please help me to get out of this house, Mr. Raka always insults me, not infrequently he even throws a punch at me just out of jealousyany woman would never want to live long with an arrogant man like him. It all started with an incoming message on my cellphone and the one who sent it was my ex-boyfriend when I was in high school, we separated because I had to move house to Kalimantan Island and we had to have a long-distance relationship at first everything went smoothly but a few months passedIt's the harsh reality that I got, it seems that my lover is having an affair with my own best friend on this island of Kalimantan and since then my feelings for him have disappeared until I met mas raka who is currently my husband. My harmonious household has now disappeared since he sent me a message. Ting! My cellphone notification sound is a sign that there is an incoming message, but I wonder who sent me a message using a new number? Because of my curiosity, I opened it and what a surprise when I opened it, it turned out to be a message from my former Yogi. [Hi, how are you? it's me yogi] There was not the slightest intention that crossed my mind to reply to the message, but when I was about to delete the message, suddenly my brother took my cellphone, "Yogi? Is this your former yogi?" he asked. I just kept quiet and didn't answer because if I answered, there would definitely be a feud between me and Mas Raka. "Answer Lia" he snapped.

I was the firm’s star. The one they called for the impossible cases. My latest miracle? The “Titan Project” patent case. I made the firm a billion dollars. My cut was supposed to be a two-million-dollar bonus. But today, a fresh-faced intern waltzed off with it. I thought payroll had made a mistake and stormed straight into the senior partner's office. “Preston. My two-million-dollar bonus. Tell me there’s been a mistake.” Preston didn’t even bother to look up. “Victoria, I’ve looked into it. We won this case because of Chloe’s client management.” “She was schmoozing clients. Late-night golf games. Weekend yacht parties. While you were what, exactly?” “You never showed your face outside the courtroom. Teamwork is everything.” I almost laughed. It was absurd. “She’s a rookie who can’t even recite the rules of discovery.” “Enough!” Preston cut me off. “The firm doesn’t make mistakes. I see what everyone contributes.” “If you're not happy, you can prove your worth somewhere else.” He tossed a severance agreement on the desk. My heart went cold. I signed it on the spot. Before I left, I got the last word. “Preston, next time the firm has a real fight on its hands, you’d better call your social butterfly, Chloe. Don’t bother me.” He blew a perfect smoke ring, smirking right through it. Unfazed. Soon later, my phone blew up. It was him. Begging me to come back and save his ass.

Three days before my blood oath ceremony, someone planted a silver crucifix in the bridal shop and set it ablaze while I was inside trying on my ceremonial gown. My fiancé — Vampire Lord Damien — had the arsonist thrown into the silver prison, sentencing them to the harshest punishment our laws allowed. I lay in the healing chamber, my body covered in severe burns, refusing to wake fully as the reality of my disfigurement sank in. In my semi-conscious state, I heard Damien speaking with the coven's apothecary. "My Lord, we can still heal her completely with the ancient blood rites. If we wait any longer, Serena will bear these scars for life! You just want Miss Vivienne to be your Consort at the blood oath ceremony. This is cruel beyond measure!" "Let her keep the scars. I'll provide for her for the rest of her life, but if she's healed, she'll definitely cause trouble at the ceremony." "I promised Vivienne that her child would be welcomed into the coven with full honors. Only when Serena is completely disfigured will she be grateful enough to raise Vivienne's child as her own. The scars are necessary - at least this way, she won't dare mistreat the boy." In the corner of the room, where no one was watching, a tear slid down my burned cheek. So this was the truth. The blood oath ceremony I'd dreamed of was nothing but a lie. The blood bond I longed for would be my death sentence. If that's how it had to be, I would give him what he wanted.
