Believe Me

Sierah Garcia met a lot of men already, experienced a lot of heartaches, and even experienced the worst part of a relationship. What if a man came up and plotted to break her heart? Will she be able to accept and move on? I sighed, staring at him. "Is this yours?" he cluelessly asked. He was about to hand me my handkerchief, when I stepped back. "Yes. Thank you." Kinuha ko 'yon sa kamay niya tsaka ko siya mabilisang tinalikuran. "Sie.." I stopped when he called my name, I blinked a lot of times before glancing at him. By just calling out the nickname he gave me, it brings back a lot of memories, such as pain. "Y-Yes?" I responded. He licked his lips, he looked so serious. "When will I see you again?" I unbelievably stared at him because of his question, I closed my fist. "Never again,” I whispered and walked away real fast.

"You're saying?" "I'm saying, I know you're avoiding me." She froze. "I see the way you look at me Tarah." Their eyes met. But she quickly looked away. "Look at me darling." He said huskily. He lifted her chin. She finally looked at him in his soul sucking eyes. "Are you attracted to me?" "No." She lied. TARAH What do you do when you feel things you never felt before? Feelings you never thought you would feel, towards someone you shouldn't feel that to. Feelings you should never feel towards your husband's brother. And what if it happens, he feels the same. What do you do? What do I do? How could I keep myself away from him, when we live under one roof. How can I not get attached to him, when he's all I am into. He showed me my darkest desires I never thought I had. He awakened my deepest feelings. He opened the door to my heart, and my damn legs as well. He was the greatest temptation that I failed to resist. I never thought of getting married through a contract. More so of falling in love with my husband's brother. EZEKIEL The marriage contract wasn't entirely legal, but still, a grooms valid name was needed. There was no second bastard son at all, and I couldn't come up with a name. So, I put my name on it. Making Tarah married to me. Yes. To me. She's married to me. Which she didn't know. And wouldn't know. I know she's just adopted, but I'll still mess around her, as planned. And what could I do? She's undeniably very pretty. So pretty. I wanted her attention on me. I want her. I want my wife. I want what's mine. I'll do everything to get her.

Sinabi ko na sayo, Don't fall in love with me, dahil hindi kita kayang saluhin. Still lalaki pa rin ang gusto ko. Isa ka lamang taga pawi ng uhaw ko sa tawag ng laman. At kailanman ay hindi kita kayang mahalin.

"I don't do commitments, Sophie. Especially not with my best friend's sister." Isang gabi. Isang pagkakamali. What was meant to be a masked one-night escape turns into a lifetime secret when Sophie discovers her mystery lover is Jace Velez—the ruthless billionaire CEO and her brother’s best friend. She runs, carrying the child of a man who doesn’t believe in love. Five years later, Sophie is a struggling single mom to Xavi, surviving with the help of a mysterious benefactor known only as “LJV.” From lavish gifts to prepaid school fees, LJV has been their silent guardian. She never expected to cross paths with Jace again—until she’s forced to work at Velez Corp. Jace is still cold, commanding, and dangerously magnetic. He acts like he doesn’t remember her, but his eyes say otherwise. Every glance burns with possessiveness. Every order feels personal. And every message from LJV grows more invasive—knowing things no stranger should. As Sophie falls deeper into the web of secrets, she faces a terrifying truth: Jace isn’t just the Ice King. He might be LJV. But someone else claims that title too—someone watching her and Xavi from the shadows. Ngunit ang dalaga ay tila nahuhulog na sa “ninong” na nagsilbing ama ni Xavi sa mga panahong wala si Jace. Hindi pa man niya ito nakikita ay tila tanggap na ito ng kanyang pusong patuloy na inaangkin ng isang Velez. Sa mundo na ang pag-ibig ay isang laro, sino ang mas matimbang para kay Sophie — ang isang anino na tanggap ang buong pagkatao niya o ang lalaking may puwang parin sa puso niya?

"Ano? Sa tingin mo ba, I’d fall for you if you sweet-talked me?" Anya ni Claire na sinamahan niya pa ng nakakadismayang iling. "I waited for you for five long years, Luke. Five years and now that I am finally over you and dating your best friend," dagdag niyang pailing iling ulit habang unti unting umaatras si Luke sa pader, "—you dare do this to me, wreaking havoc on my emotions? Gago ka ba talaga ha?!" "I can't stop myself. I love you and I won't give you up that easily, Claire. I won't. I can't." "I want you." "You know you can't have me," she murmured and bit her lips, begging him to kiss her. Just kiss the hell out of her para matauhan siya sa kahibangang nararamdaman niya ngayong yakap yakap siya ni Luke. "It’ll be risky if you stay another minute, Claire. Get out now before I lose my mind completely," he murmured between heavy breathing and gazing at her lips. A muscle in his jaw twitched, knowing full well that their close proximity made his blood warm and tingly. God, he wanted this woman so bad. Yes, he wanted her so much that he risked his friendship with Owen. And yes, he was insane for doing so.

Ang tanging hiling ni Lexie Marie Delos Reyes ay matupad ang pangarap ng kaniyang Lola. Ang makasal at tuluyan nang lumagay sa tahimik. Ngunit sa araw mismo ng kaniyang kasal, gumuho ang lahat nang tumakas ang kaniyang fiancé upang sundan ang babaeng tunay nitong mahal sa ibang bansa. Sa gitna ng sakit at kahihiyan, napilitan siyang gumawa ng desisyon na magbabago ng lahat. To marry Kaizer Zapanta, her brother’s best friend. Isang lalaking kilala sa pagiging malamig, misteryoso, at isang trilyonaryo na kinatatakutan sa mundo ng negosyo. "If it’s marriage you want, I’ll take his place. But don’t expect me to give you my heart." – Kaizer Zapanta Ang kasal na inakala ni Lexie na pakitang-tao lamang ay unti-unting nagiging mapanganib sa puso niya. Unti-unti niyang natuklasang na sa likod ng malamig na anyo ng lalaki, may init pala doong kayang tunawin ang lahat ng takot, at sakit sa puso niya. And just when her heart began to trust again, Zyrus—her runaway fiancé—returned with a confession that threatened to ruin everything. "Come back to me, Lexie. After all, we’re expecting a child. Won’t you introduce me as their father?" – Zyrus Martinez Ngayon, kailangan niyang pumili. Sino sa pagitan ng lalaking minsang iniwan siya, o sa estrangherong hindi na lang basta asawa kundi ama ng kaniyang dinadala, ang kaniyang pipiliin?

WARNING: MATURE CONTENT! I never should have applied for a job to the Cromwell's Corporation–because the only available position is to become his fake wife... James Ethan Cromwell a half British-Filipino billionaire. Tall, dark and handsome, not to mention his oozing sex appeal. He had an appearance that was tightly restrained, dominating air, and a smoldering stare that instantly made me shiver. His absence of humor is the only aspect that sucks worse than his attitude. But to be honest. Sadly, he's also the one who could save my mother's failing health. So, when he offered me the chance to work with him; to pretend as his fake wife, I accepted it. Besides, it's only a couple of days during his family's visit. It's not like I'm in danger of falling in love with the most notorious bachelor in town. But at the end, I eat my own words–ended up falling so hard for him.

I stare at her while she's bent down. "Are you deaf?" I asked her again and she didn't answer me. "Hey!" I can't stop myself from shouting at her because I think she doesn't know how to speak. Napahawak ako sa aking ulo dahil tanging pag-iyak lamang ang tanging sagot niya sa lahat ng taong ko. I rested and looked at her. "Anong pangalan mo?" I ask her in Tagalog words because maybe she's not understand me. "J-Judy p-po S-Senyorito," she answered me while she's shaking. Now I understand that she doesn't understand me if I speak English. I can't stop from smelling and thinking what punishment I should do to her. Because she's my slave at isa siya sa pagmamay-ari kong alipin.

Women. Booze. Casual Sex and repeat. Yan ang nakasanayang buhay ng isang Saint Paris De Luca - isang casanovang bilyonaryo. Pangalang sinisigaw ng mga kababaihan at kinaiinggitan naman ng mga kalalakihan. Ipinangako niya sa sarili na walang babaeng makakapagpaluhod sa kanya sa kahit anong kagustuhan nito. No stress - no love , just sex. Hanggang dumating ang isang araw na aksidente niyang narinig na ipapakasal siya ng mga magulang sa isang babaeng nagngangalang Lois Andromeda Verlice. Isang babaeng ang prioridad ang pamilya at pangarap, malayong malayo sa iniisip niyang katulad ito ng ibang babaeng humahabol sa kanya. Ang babaeng ayaw din sa lalaking babaero tulad niya. At hindi siya pwede matali ng basta basta man lang, hindi niya kayang i-give up ang kalayaang meron siya ngayon bilang binata. Sanay siyang siya ang hinahabol at sinasamba ng mga babae. Kaya naman hinikayat niyang umayon ito sa plano niyang magpapangap silang magkasintahan kalaunan para na rin sa ikakabuti ng kondisyon ng ama niya. He love his life more than ever. Pero paano nalang niya gagawin yon kung araw-araw nito ipinaparamdam sa kanya kung ano ang kulang sa buhay niya. The love he never believe it existed. Mananatili pa ba silang magpapanggap para lang lokohin ang mga sarili nila, na alam nilang sa una palang talo na o mag take ng risk para sa pagmamahal na inaasam nila para sa isa't isa?
