Aphmau Shipping

Sienna Calder swore she’d never touch her father’s world—Dorian Ashford, shipping mogul and billionaire king, left her mom to rot while he built his empire. She’s there to curse his grave when he dies, not to claim a dime. But his will traps her, naming her co-heir to his $50 billion legacy alongside Roman Valtieri, the brooding, hard-edged protégé who’s clawed his way into Dorian’s shadow—and now into hers. They’re to run the empire together or lose it all, and Sienna hates him for it: too slick, too close, every look a spark she doesn’t want. Then a letter from Dorian’s cold hand ignites the fire—he was murdered, and Roman’s name’s scratched beside the truth. A silver key and a vial of blood—hers, his—drag her deeper, promising answers locked in Ashford estate.But the walls crash in fast: Ezra Locke, a scarred snake with a grin like a blade, wants that key, and he’ll drown the place to get it. Roman’s her lifeline—gun drawn, hands steady, pulling her from the flood—and she loathes how his touch burns, how his voice steadies her when the water’s at her throat. Caught between rage and a pull she can’t name, Sienna fights the heat growing with every near miss—Roman’s too damn solid, too damn close, and she’s torn between shoving him away and pulling him in. The empire’s crumbling, the cliff’s falling, and Ezra’s not the only shadow circling—something darker watches, waiting. Love’s a gamble when blood’s the stake, and Sienna’s playing with a deck her father rigged. Can she trust Roman’s hands to hold her up, or will the crown they’re fighting for crush them both in its ashes?

Their naked bodies were shipping against each other. Her sapphire glossy orbs were staring at his brown eyes. "I love you, Cia. I love you to the extent that I will end and taint that life which would even think about taking you away from me," The firmness of his words were evident in his darkened eyes. "Even if it's your life," he rasped against her mouth. They both knew his love was irrational, an obsession for her. They loved each other enough, especially for her to let his love taint her existence. "I love you, Zale," And her words were enough to make him lose everything in her. She beautifully moaned his name as soon his warmth engulfed her deepest depth which made both of them close their eyes in pleasure, but they had never in their worst ever thought that their eyes would have to witness that thing which their future had stored for them. His deep brown orbs were staring at her who was clad in a beautiful white gown. Her sapphire orbs were downcast as she was standing at the altar but the irony was she was not his bride but his brother's. "Do you, Mr Blake Alcazar, take Miss Celia Reyes as your lawfully wedded wife?" The priest's voice echoed, causing him to fist his palm and her heart to turn numb. "I do," A tear slipped from her eyes, hearing that person's answer who was standing in front of her and feeling those brown eyes penetrating her soul. "Do you, Miss Celia Reyes, take Mr Blake Alcazar as your lawfully wedded husband?" Those deep brown eyes turned predacious and her answer turned them voraciously vicious. "I do," she answered. An answer which sealed two destinies, which shattered two hearts and TAINTED two souls.

Si Xavier Echiverri ay isang napaka-cold, matangkad, napakagwapong bachelor at perfectionist na CEO ng Heaven Shipping Inc.. Siya ang perpektong halimbawa ng isang CEO na parang refrigerator— ‘di basta-basta lumalambot, kahit sa harap ng mga magagandang empleyada. Para sa kanya, ang pag-ibig? Wala sa business plan! Ngunit ang tahimik niyang opisina ay biglang nagka-brownout sa presensya ng bagong empleyada, si Antonette Pinagpala. Si Antonette ay maganda, sexy, at mabait, ngunit isang certified walking disaster! Palaging may natatapong kape (karaniwan ay kay Xavier pa!), nalalaglag na folders, at minsan, siya mismo ang natutumba! Pero kahit laging epic fail, hindi siya nawawalan ng ngiti o ng lakas ng loob na bumati ng, “Good morning, Sir!” kahit na obvious na bad trip si Xavier sa mga bloopers niya. Ang akala ni Xavier, matutuyot siya sa stress ng mga epic fails ni Antonette. Pero sa bawat engot niyang hakbang, natatawa siya—sa umpisa, pilit na tawa lang; kalaunan, hindi niya na mapigilan ang tawang natural na natural. At unti-unti, nadidiskubre niyang ang “perfectionist” niyang puso ay kayang pakiligin ng isang disaster queen na gaya ni Antonette. Ngunit sa gitna ng kanilang nakakakilig na harutan, biglang lumitaw ang matagal nang nakalimutang bahagi ng buhay ni Xavier—si Isabella Maharlika, ang ex-fiancee niyang iniwan siya sa mismong araw ng kasal! At ngayon, bumalik siya upang kunin ang atensyon at pagmamahal ni Xavier, na tila nais niyang mabawi mula kay Antonette. Kaya ba niyang isantabi ang kanyang prinsipyo na "business-only" para sa masaya at nakakakilig na buhay kasama si Antonette?Pero kung magkakaalaman na ang lahat, sino nga ba ang pipiliin ni Xavier—Si Isabella o Siya?-ang perpektong pagmamahalan na minsan nang nagtapos, o ang bagong love story na puno ng epic fails pero walang kapantay na saya?
