Another Word For Happy

Who knew that bumping on to a stranger's car would give someone a one way ticket to a world they so despise and desperately avoid? Sienna Melendez doesn't want to be married, nor fall in love. She had that tattooed across her brain. She doesn't need these things, she can live and be happy just by herself. Plus, she doesn't want the pain that comes with love. It hurts, anesthetics could never help, and time doesn't seem to heal it at all. But when she bumped into a guy's car, she thought that after a few negotiations and her paying for the damages, they would just forget and move on.

Things did not end well, and now, she's facing a life being trapped in a marriage with the heir of the Valencia empire, the "demon" as she had nicknamed him, Neo Valencia. ** "Damn it!" marahas niyang itinapon ang tuwalyang hawak sa sofa. "You know what? I hate you! I hate your dumb voice, your stupid muscles and your annoyingly attractive face!" "And you know what they say," his lips twitched into a smirk. "- that love and hate are two sides of a very... very thin line," tinalikuran siya nito at pumasok na sa banyo. And she just stood there, trying to process what he just said when she realized something. "Hoy! Ako na dapat 'yong mauuna sa banyo eh!"

Then, she met Jerick, a womanizer who was also caught by her ex-girlfriend of three years making out with a random girl he just met inside the bar that was owned by his friend. It was supposed to be her warning to stay away from him. Not with another cheater, not with another heartbreaker but she still ended up spreading her legs wide for him and found herself moaning his name over and over again. Parehong sawi ng makilala nila ang isa’t-isa, parehong naghahanap ng kalinga at pagmamahal. Ang isang beses na pagkakamali ay naulit pa ng ilang ulit, they became fuck buddies.
