Trinity was on top of the world, the queen of queens. But the next thing she knew, ay dinukot na siya ng masasamang loob at ngayon ay pagsasamantalahan pa. She heard his voice and remembered him from the pool party. Nagpakilala itong Red, at ganoon din ang naririnig niyang tawag ng mga kasamahan nito dito. He began to touch her in all the areas where she had never allowed anyone to touch. He started kissing her neck as he slid his burning hands inside her panties. Her screams and cries were gagged. Hindi niya alam kung guni-guni niya lang ba, pero parang narinig niya itong bumulong ng "I'm sorry", sa gitna ng mga kahayupan nito. She was blindfolded, and from the dirty talks and sickening laughter around her, she could tell that what is happening right now, is not a private. She had lost track kung ilang beses siyang inangkin ng rapist niya. She was rescued, but her life will never be the same. Lalo na nang malaman niyang nagdadalang-tao siya.

Malayo sa buhay na kinagisnan niya, tahimik silang namuhay ng anak na si JM sa eskwater ng Tondo. Ngunit nabago ang lahat nang makilala niya ang fiance ng ate niya...na walang iba kundi si Brigader General Juan Miguel Enriquez, na mas kilala sa defense force call sign nitong 'Red'. She was ready to hate him all her life. Pero paano niya gagawin iyon kung paunti- unti nitong pinapatunayang mali ang lahat ng assumptions niya dito noon? That he could, in fact, be the husband-material type and a good father? Will Jade be able to forgive the man who ruined her life and actually let herself fall in love with him?

Follow and carry out the rules the Floros' had given him—watch the kid, keep him out of trouble, and collect a generous paycheck. But Layland Floros is anything but a kid. Beautiful, bold, and entirely too provocative for his own good, Layland isn’t interested in being watched. With a bratty attitude that dares Gunner to break every boundary he’s set for himself when he's on the job, Layland turns a simple assignment into something far more dangerous. Gunner's never been with a man. Never even thought about it—until Layland. Now, every moment in that house is thick with tension, with heat that hums just beneath the surface. The more Gunner tries to keep things professional, the harder it becomes to ignore what he was really feeling towards the young man. Soon, duty gives way to desire, and Gunner finds himself crossing lines he swore he wouldn’t. But when the chemistry between them explodes into something real and raw, he’ll have to face the truth: babysitting Layland and carrying out the young man's parents' rules was never the hard part. Staying away from him is. And if Layland's parents find out what really happened behind the closed doors of their home, Gunner could lose more than just the job.

Le jour où j'ai su qu'il ne me restait plus que trois jours à vivre, mon compagnon est rentré avec un contrat de rupture de lien. Il voulait rompre notre lien pour s'unir à une autre louve qui prétendait être mourante, simplement pour exaucer son dernier souhait. « Chérie, je n'avais pas le choix », m'a dit Théo Lambert en me serrant dans ses bras. « Nina Carrel a été empoisonnée à l'argent, il ne lui reste qu'une semaine à vivre. Son plus grand souhait avant de mourir, c'est de m'épouser. » « Mais ne t'inquiète pas, la seule que j'aime, c'est toi », a ajouté Théo en me regardant avec sincérité. « Dès que la cérémonie sera terminée et qu'elle sera morte, nous reprendrons notre lien. » J'ai baissé la tête avec un léger sourire et j'ai signé le contrat de rupture. Tant pis. De toute façon, j'allais mourir, alors peu importe avec qui il était. Autant le laisser réaliser son vœu.
