Bago Tribe

Isang gabi ang nagbago sa buhay ni Amara Villanueva. Matapos ang isang party, nauwi siya sa one-night stand sa isang lalaking hindi niya man lang nakilala. Kinaumagahan, umalis siya habang natutulog pa ang lalaki—at makalipas ang ilang buwan, nalaman niyang buntis siya. Pinili niyang itago ang kanyang anak at palakihin ito nang mag-isa. Tanging ang kanyang magulang at identical twin na si Althea ang nakakaalam ng kanyang lihim. Ngunit nagbago ang lahat nang biglang mawala si Althea bago ang engagement nito sa billionaire na si Ethan Reyes. Para iligtas ang reputasyon ng kanilang pamilya, napilitan si Amara na magpanggap bilang kanyang twin at pakasalan ang lalaki. Habang unti-unting nahuhulog ang puso niya kay Ethan, biglang bumalik si Althea upang tapusin ang kanyang pagpapanggap. Ngunit hindi pa rin nasasabi ni Amara ang katotohanang matagal na niyang tinatago. Dahil ang lalaking pinakasalan niya… ay siya  ama ng kanyang anak.

Disi-sais pa lamang si Assy no'ng nagkagusto siya kay Clavier Buenaventura na kaniyang boy best friend. Bago namatay ang ina ng binata ay ipinagkasundo itong ikasal sa ibang babae ngunit tumanggi si Clavier. Sa pamamagitan ng laro, ay nagpakasal silang dalawa upang bigyan ng katuparan ang hiling ng inang may sakit. Ngunit sa halos dalawang taon nilang kasal ay puro kalungkutan lamang ang natatamo ni Assy. Nag-file siya ng annulment at kaagad naman iyong pinirmahan ng asawa. Lumipad siya papuntang Canada at doon makikilala ang lalaking magpapatahan sa malungkot niyang puso. Makakamtan na kaya ni Assy ang tunay na saya sa kaniyang pag-alis? Paano kung sa kaniyang muling pagbalik ay naghihintay ang tao na tulad niya'y nasasaktan at nahihirapan? Kaya pa bang pagdugtungin ang naputol nang relasyon? Paano kung malaman niya ang dahilan ng pasakit na dinanas niya? Matuto kaya siyang magpatawad? O habangbuhay dadalhin ang pagkamuhi.

Matagal pinangarap ni Fae makatuluyan sa paglaki ang kinakapatid, pero d-in-ate nito at pakakasalan ang kanyang college bestfriend. Heartbroken man, dumalo siya sa kasal kaso fake pala ang invite kagagawan ng malditang babae. So... napahiya siya, nakagawa ng eskandalo, at niligtas ni Jigo na bestfriend ng groom bago siya mapahamak sa kalasingan noong gabing iyon. He ends up carrying her to his suite—right into a perfect rebound situation. Jigo is decent, a gentleman—alright. And drop-dead gorgeous! Wala nang Carl so who cares if she goes for another man?

Hindi na siya lumaban... and the next days and nights are the best of her life! She starts to hope that maybe, walang Mr. Rebound. Maybe... he's actually Mr. Right.

She never felt love and care. Namulat siya sa mundo na walang pakialam ang pamilya niya sa kanya. Lahat nang pwedeng makasakit sa kanya ay ginawa nang mga Ito pisikal man o emosyonal. She did everything just to please her parents and make them love her pero walang nangyari dahil puro kuya nalang niya ang bukang bibig ng mga Ito. Kahit kailan ay di nila nakita ang halaga niya. Pinag kaitan nang kalayaan at kasiyahan. Ginawang utusan sa pamamahala at ipinakikilang ampon sa lahat nang kakilala nito. But one night change everything, isang gabi na nag pabago nang lahat, gabi na nag pa bago nang kanilang buhay at buhay ni Dalary bilang bulag.

The place where she learned her true value and worth that her parents didn't see. Dalary thought she'll be happy not until she discover something that has to do with her lost virginity.

Hindi akalain ni Margarette na dalawang buwan bago ang nakatakda niyang kasal sa kasintahang si Bobby ay magagawa pa itong agawin ng kapatid niyang si Michaela. Ang masakit, itinakda agad ang kasal ng dalawa. Ang pangyayari ay nagawa pang isisi ng mga ito sa kanyang katabaan at pagiging abala sa trabaho. Dala ng galit sa pamilya niya at pagluluksa sa sinapit niyang kabiguan, natagpuan ng dalaga ang sariling nagpapakalasing at naglalabas ng sama ng loob sa isang estranghero. Estrangherong nagising na lang siyang asawa na niya! Wala siyang matandaan pero pumayag siya sa alok ni Wallace na tulong na paghihiganti kapalit naman ng sarili nitong hangarin, ang mapabalik sa piling nito ang babaeng mahal nito. Madali at satisfying noong una, pero habang lumalakad ang panahon ay unti-unting nahulog ang loob niya sa asawa. Paano na lang kapag natapos na ang isang taong palugit ng kanilang pagsasama? Ano ang kahihinatnan ng isang pagmamahal na tila panlabas na kaanyuan ang labanan?

Matapos ang isang malaking pagkakamali sa huli niyang mission, napilitan si Charlene Dumont na tanggapin ang trabahong personal secretary ni Bastien Morel, ang kilalang masungit, perfectionist, at ruthless na CEO ng Vireya Corporation, isang high-profile na kumpanya sa Pilipinas. Pero hindi lang basta trabaho ang pakay ni Charlene. May kailangan siyang makuhang code mula kay Bastien, isang critical na detalye para maayos ang sablay sa nakaraan niyang operasyon. Ang hindi niya alam, si Bastien ay hindi basta-basta boss. Isang maling kilos lang at puwede kang mawalan ng trabaho... o masira ang buong pangalan mo sa industriya. Iisa lang ang reputasyon nito: terror. Pero handa si Charlene na gawin ang lahat, kahit pa ang pakisamahan ang lalaking tingin ng lahat ay halimaw. Ang hindi niya inaasahan? Na unti-unti siyang mahuhulog sa lalaking dapat sana’y lalabánan niya. Makukuha ba niya ang code bago siya tuluyang bumigay sa tukso? O tuluyan na bang magiging Mission Impossible ang lahat?

Limang taon.. Limang taon na nakulong si Sapphire, dahil sa kagagawan ng kanyang asawa, at ng kabit nito, na kanya mismong kapatid. Sa kanyang paglaya, mismong ang hudas pa niyang asawa ang sumundo sa kanya, dahil hindi maaaring iakyat sa bahay ng mga Briones, ang isang kabit. Alam na ni Sapphire ang kanyang plano, ang maghiganti sa kanyang asawang si Dexter, at sa kanyang kakambal na si Emerald. Nais din niyang hanapin, ang batang iniluwal niya, na pinalabas nilang patay, bago siya makulong. Ngunit pagdating niya sa kanilang bahay, ang isang lalaking gwapo, at hinahangaan ng lahat, ay naroroon, si Ezekiel Briones, na may bitbit na anak. Hindi niya mawari sa kanyang sarili, kung bakit ang pakiramdam niya sa lalaki, ay inaakit siya, at yun naman ay pinayagan ng kanyang puso. Saka pa lang malalaman ni Dexter, na nagkamali ito, at nais ayusin ang kanilang pagsasama.. Sino ang pipiliin niya? ang dati niyang minamahal, na pinahirapan siya, o ang gwapong si tito Ezekiel, na hindi niya malaman kung seryoso sa kanya?

Breed stared at her. “I detest abuse. Especially violence by men on females.” “Yeah, I gathered that much.” She sat up and winced as she pulled her large t-shirt off. He simply stared at her bare breasts. Her nipples were erect and rosy. “Damn, you are beautiful,” he whispered and looked up at her face. “But I don’t want to hurt you.” “You won’t,” she assured him. “Please… give me this much.” Breed hesitated. “Please? I want to know what it would be like to be with a man like you. To be cared for.” He let out a breath. Damn if he didn’t want her and had from the moment he first saw her. “You are still in shock and maybe you—” Sitting forward, Kizzy pressed her lips to his, cutting off his excuses. Once Breed tasted her, he knew he wouldn’t be refusing her.They call him Breed but it’s a sign of respect, not disrespect. Born to a small tribe of Cherokee living in the Appalachian Mountains...he’s a big man. Stands at six foot four and close to three hundred pounds of pure muscle. He wears his long black hair in a ponytail, hanging halfway down his back. He owns every room he enters and lacks fear of almost any confrontation. His bright green eyes, the only thing he got from his father, were squinting as he looked down into the dingy. A woman lay there... tall and slim, short blonde hair with the tips dyed lime green. Breed shakes his head. What bothers him is the fact that she is covered in bruises and doesn’t seem to be conscious at the moment.

The night before the bond ceremony, the moonlight was like silver, sprinkling over the altar of the werewolf tribe. The Moon Goddess chose Jonah's white moonlight, Emma, and assigned her to William, the tyrannical alpha of the werewolf tribe.His blood flows with the power of the ancient wolf king, but also with untamed wildness. Rumor has it that every woman who spends the night with William will be covered in bruises the next day. William’s desire is intertwined with his wolf nature, and the silver bed is his unique symbol. Silver is poison and a test for werewolves. William would let those women lie on the cold silver bed, watching their pain of being eroded by silver and the joy of desire intertwined, making painful moans and confused gasps. This contradictory torture is the catalyst for his wild desire. Jonah knows William's cruelty well, and he can't bear Emma to be the next victim. So, under the protection of the moonlight, he kidnapped Emma one step ahead and completed the marking ceremony with her under the witness of the Moon Goddess. And I, the woman abandoned by Jonah. The vows I made turned to ashes under the moonlight, and my name became a laughingstock in the tribe. In the evening, the setting sun was like blood, and William's figure appeared in front of my tent. His golden pupils flickered in the twilight with the aggression of a beast. His voice was low and threatening: "Since Jonah has robbed my partner, you can be my Luna: how about it?" Luna, the partner of the alpha in the werewolf tribe, symbolizes power and glory, but also means endless bondage and danger. I raised my head, looked directly into his eyes, and a sneer appeared at the corner of my mouth: "Okay."

Cinzia, brutalized and sold off after the death of her parents, found herself at the mercy of the ferocious Hybrid King. She lost all sense of reasoning while with him, and even her main goal, which was to avenge the death of her parents. He was known as the Hybrid King, a man of mixed blood, shrouded in mystery. But no one truly knew who he was. Cinzia, in his eyes, was the solution to a problem he had suffered for many years – a possession he acquired on impulse. Despite his treatment of her, her presence in his life was somehow redeeming. Could she succeed in penetrating his frozen heart and curing him of the curse before it was too late? Would she succeed in bringing justice to her dead parents when she found the killer, or would she cower forever in the presence of the Hybrid King, who now more than ever treated her as nothing? ______ "I, Cinzia Aetos, daughter of the slain Alpha and Luna of the Royal wolf tribe, reject all your possible advances, whatever you have in mind..." His anthracite eyes swirled into a dangerous golden color, and his grip on my wrists tightened. "W-what are you doing?" I sputtered. "Let go of me this instant!" "I, Raphael Grace, The Hybrid King, accept you, Cinzia Aetos, as the mate sent by the goddess Selene. I promise to do as I desire with you. I swear on the river Styx and by my father, Zeus, the god of the sky!" The heavens thundered, and I saw a lightning flash in his eyes briefly before he pushed me away from him. What had just happened? He swore and accepted me as his mate?!
