Isang masayahin at palakaibigan na dalaga si Bella. Matalik niyang kaibigan na lalaki si Vin simula pagkabata. Magkapitbahay lamang sila at madalas na magkasundo sa lahat ng bagay. Naging magkaklase sila ni Vin simula elementarya hanggang high school. Sobrang close nila sa isa't isa kaya madalas silang magkasama. Ngunit pagdating ng college ay kinailangang umalis ni Vin upang mag-aral sa ibang bansa. Hindi naman lingid sa kaalaman ni Bella na nagmula si Vin sa mayamang pamilya kaya hindi na sya nagtaka nung kinailangang umalis ni Vin upang mag-aral sa ibang bansa. Lumipas pa ang mga taon ay bumalik na si Vin sa Pilipinas at nalaman eto ni Bella. Nang magkrus ang kanilang landas ay nagtaka si Bella kung bakit parang iba ang pakikitungo ni Vin sa kanya at madalas ay iniiwasan pa nga siya. Doon na nalaman ni Bella na may nararamdaman na pala si Vin sa kanya. Higit pa sa matalik na magkaibigan. Sobra ang tuwang nadama ni Bella dahil napagtanto nyang mahal na rin nya ang binata. Ngunit isang araw ay napalitan ng lungkot ang saya na nadarama ni Bella nang makita nya si Vin na may kasamang ibang babae, si Nicole, at napag-alaman nyang ikakasal na ang mga eto. Labis na nasaktan si Bella. Akala nya kasi ay si Vin na ang nakalaan para sa kanya pero may ibang plano pala ang tadhana para sa kanila. Magagawa pa kayang ipaglaban ni Bella ang pagmamahal nya kay Vin? O hahayaan na lamang nya etong magpakasal sa ibang babae.

Cocky, arrogant, and dropped dead gorgeous: That described my boss, Mr. Craft, to a T. His thick hair, cold blue eyes and strong jaw held power in a conference meeting, causing women to melt in his presence. I’ve wanted to confront him on his stubborn attitude and critical demands for employees. I’d bitten my tongue in many scenarios and held in my true feelings over a dozen times. Keeping the peace was necessary until I had enough experience under my belt to move onto bigger and better things. The only problem was; Craft Marketing was the bigger and better, and the longer I stuck it out with him, meant more opportunities would arise. I’d been the only female intern to land a job directly under him, and was also the only one who hadn’t slept with him. I knew he was promiscuous with the tall and leggy blondes that breezed into his office looking immaculate, then scurried back out with mussed hair, flushed cheeks, and unbuttoned blouses. I'd ignore the magnetic pull of chemistry and curiosity between us. Unless it came to my advantage.

"พี่ธาม..." "...พี่ไม่ได้ทำแบบนั้นกับวาใช่ไหม พี่ไม่ได้หลอกวาใช่ไหม มันไม่ใช่เรื่องจริงใช่ไหมคะ" เจ้าของใบหน้าใสยังคงถามคนตรงหน้าออกไปน้ำตาคลอ "อืม ฉันเข้าหาเธอ...ก็เพื่อสิ่งนั้นเท่านั้น" ทันทีที่ริมฝีปากหนาตอบความจริงกลับมาด้วยน้ำเสียงเรียบนิ่งเฉยชาก็ทำเอารุ่นน้องสาวร้องไห้ออกมาราวกับว่าทุกอย่างนั้นได้พังทลายลง "ฮึก พะ...พี่..."

Sa loob ng sampung taon na magkasintahan si Elle at Franz, nauwi ang lahat sa hiwalayan, dahil sa isang babae na isang kaibigan lang daw. Alam ni Elle na mabait at maunawain ang kanyang nobyo, pero masyadong lumagpas ang pagiging mabait nito na naka-apekto sa kanilang relasyon, siya na naturingan na nobya, pero parang siya pa ang walang karapatan kay Franz. Masakit kay Elle na bitawan si Franz, pero hindi niya hahayaan na masira pa lalo ang buhay niya kung laging pagdadahilan ang maririnig niya mula sa bibig ni Franz. Nagpakalayo at napadpad sa isang tahimik na lugar si Elle para lubos na makalimutan si Franz, at para na rin doon ibuhos ang lahat ng sakit, pero hindi rin pala niya magagawa dahil sa isang mala-yelong pagkatao ng isang lalaki na makakasama niya sa isang bahay, hindi naman siya pinanganak na mayaman kaya kailangan niyang mangupahan. Ang akalang kalmado at walang sakit sa ulo na tahanan ay magiging mahirap para kay Elle, dahil sa ugali ni Jack, ang kasama niya sa bahay. Kung si Elle ay mayroong liwanag kahit pa nasaktan ito, si Jack ang nagpapawala no'n dahil sa hindi sila magkasundong dalawa sa lahat ng bagay sa iisang bubong. Away dito, away doon ang ginagawa nila araw-araw. Tuluyan kayang maghilom ang sugatan na puso ni Elle, o mas lalong hindi, dahil kay Jack? Paano na lang kung isang araw sa kagustuhan na mag-move-on ni Elle kay Jack na tumitibok ang kanyang puso? Ang isa pang malaking rebelasyon, paano kung malaman ni Elle na isang bilyonaryo pala si Jack na nagpapanggap na mahirap para sa isang misyon?

I was pulled by a beast-like man who mistook me for a slut. On the same day, I saw my fiancé having sex with my step-sister. Such a bad night that I was thrown out of the country and gave birth to a child from a man who mistook me for a prostitute. When I returned because I was conned, the man met me again and whispered in my ear. "You're not a slut?" I know this man is dangerous, he shouldn't be the father of my child, but he keeps chasing me. Are we going to catch him?

"Alam mo ikaw ha, masyado kang pala-desisyon. Buhay ko ito kaya huwag kang makialam lalo pa at wala naman ako’ng naging say sa love life mo,” naiinis na pahayag ko kay Franco. Naiinis kasi ito nang malaman na gusto ko ng magkaanak. Lagpas na ako sa kalendaryo at sa takot ko na mapag-iwanan ay ito ang naisip ko na solusyon. Wala sa vocabulary ko ang pag-aasawa dahil na rin sa naging karanasan ng nanay ko at sa nakikita ko sa paligid ko kaya nawalan na ako ng interes lalo na sa mga lalaki. Maraming nanliligaw subalit lahat sa akin ay red flags. Dagdagan pa nitong kaibigan ko na walang inaayawan basta naka-palda sa paningin nito lahat ay maganda. Mabait naman ito, matalino, responsable, masipag at madiskarte subalit sadyang palikero. “Ako ha, concern lang ako sa iyo. Huwag sanang masamain. Mamaya sa kagustuhan mo ay mapahamak ka pa.” Patuloy na litanya ni Franco sa akin. “Kaya nga bago pa mangyari iyon ay uunahan ko na. Hindi ako mai-inlove, hindi ako magiging martir at lalong hindi ko hahayaan na masaktan lang ako ng kagaya mo. Kaya nga anak lang ang gusto ko at iyon na ang pupuno sa pangarap ko. Hindi ako mag-aasawa at sakit lang iyan sa ulo,” masungit na sagot ko. “Ganun ba? Bakit ka pa maghahanap sa malayo at hindi mo kilala kung mayroon naman sa harapan mo? Ako na lang kaya, ano? Makakasiguro ka pa na galing sa magandang lahi at pamilya ang magiging anak mo,” tugon ni Franco. Napamaang ako sa naging sagot n’ya. Pwede kaya o baka magiging mitsa lang ito ng bagong kalbaryo sa buhay namin? Mas makapagpapatibay o makakasira kaya ito sa aming pagkakaibigan? Subalit hindi ko maiwasan kiligin at makadama ng challenge na baka ako lang pala ang makapagpapatino kay Franco.

It was never Mila's intention to send explicit images of herself to her crush's father. The realization that her dad's best friend had seen her nude was a nightmarish thought she wished to wake up from. To her surprise, Mr. Williams requested another naked picture of her. But she couldn't comply. He was her crush's father and her father's best friend. How could she possibly act like nothing had happened when they were coming over for dinner? Feeling trapped as Mr. Williams cornered her. He used one hand to pull up the bottom of her dress and the other to grab a handful of her hair, forcing her to arch her back. "Please," Mila whispered. "Please, Mr. Williams." A moan involuntarily escaped her lips as she felt his erection pressing against her buttocks. "You have no idea how much power I hold over you, Mila," he murmured. "Anything I desire, you will give me, or do you want me to show your father the picture you sent me?" Mila's grip on the counter grew tighter as she pushed her backside against him. This was all a mistake. It felt so wrong. "What do you want?" she asked. "You, on your knees in front of me."
