Bible Verse With Short Reflection

Alara's life shattered the day she was sold by the man she believed was her father, thrust into the powerful grasp of Ezra—the feared Alpha King with eyes of amber and a commanding presence that claimed her very soul. Haunted by betrayal and the mysteries surrounding her true lineage, Alara must navigate the treacherous waters of a bond she never asked for, yet cannot deny. Ezra, burdened by the loss of his first mate and years of bitter solitude, sees in Alara not just a mate but his destined redemption. Determined to protect his kingdom from the rising dark threats, he must confront his own heart as it dangerously entwines with the fierce and defiant woman brought into his life by fate. Together, they face intrigue, ancient prophecies, and hidden enemies who would see their burgeoning love destroyed before it can bloom. As the line between captor and lover blurs, Ezra and Alara must decide whether trust forged in the fires of adversity can heal their wounded hearts or if the shadows of the past will tear them apart forever. In a world where passion, power, and destiny collide, can love truly conquer all—even when it's sold to the Alpha King?

Nakakapagod, pero kailangan– para sa kaniyang Mamang. Maayos naman sana ang lahat, not until this summer. Not until she met Norman Luther. Ang arogante sa lahat ng aroganteng nakasalamuha niyang bakasyunista ng Palacio Grande Resort, na pinsan ng kaniyang Boss Lowelle at isa sa may pinakamalaking share sa resort na iyon. Hindi maintindihan ni Sunshine kung ano ang kasalanang nagawa niya sa lalaki at trip na trip siya ng lalaki. Na sa sobrang pan-ti-trip nito, ipinatanggal pa talaga siya sa trabahong matagal niyang iningatan dahil lang hindi niya tinanggap ang alok nito. Alok na nagpababa sa kaniyang dignidad at pagkatao. Mahuhulog kaya si Sunshine sa bitag ng binatang gumulo sa nananahimik niyang buhay, gayong ginagamit na ni Norman ang 'impluwensiya' makuha lang ang dalaga?
