Rakai Walaing Mpu Kumbhayoni, seorang resi pengendali api dan penguasa Sanjaya terakhir yang murni, kehilangan segalanya saat wangsanya dihancurkan oleh ekspansi Syailendra. Dengan hati penuh dendam, ia menyelamatkan pewaris takhta Sanjaya yang masih kecil, Manuku, dan menggemblengnya selama bertahun-tahun untuk menjadi senjata pembalasan yang sempurna. Namun, harapannya pupus ketika Manuku—kini bergelar Rakai Pikatan—memilih jalan damai dengan menikahi putri Syailendra, sebuah tindakan yang dianggap Kumbhayoni sebagai pengkhianatan terbesar. Guru dan murid itu kini berseberangan, terkunci dalam perang dingin ideologis. Dalam upaya putus asa untuk menyatukan kembali wangsa, putra Rakai Pikatan dikirim menyamar sebagai seniman untuk memikat hati Dyah Ron Ayu, putri kesayangan Kumbhayoni. Ketika cinta terlarang bersemi di atas fondasi kebohongan, Kumbhayoni harus menghadapi pilihan: memaafkan masa lalu demi masa depan cucunya, atau melepaskan api kemarahannya yang akan menghancurkan sisa-sisa terakhir dari warisannya.

Pag-ibig, isang salita ngunit marami ang ibig sabihin. Pag- ibig, tila ba simple lamang, ngunit ang totoo ay kayang gawin lahat sa ngalan ng pagsinta. Mayroon bang mas sasakit pa sa pusong pinagtaksilan matapos mong gawin at ibigay ang lahat maging ng iyong buhay sa taong tangi mong minahal? Matapos basagin at durugin ng pinung- pino ang iyong puso ng taong tangi mong pinagkatiwalaan nito, may kakayahan ka pa bang magpatawad at umibig muli? Matapos mong maghintay ng walang hanggan sa pangakong labis mong pinanghawakan ngunit sa huli’y tanging panlilinlang lamang ang iyong napala, may lakas ka pa bang muling magtiwala sa mundo? Papaano mo ipagpapatuloy ang buhay kung hindi mo na kilala maging ang sarili mo mismo?

Pinuntahan ko ang boyfriend ko matapos kong marinig ang tungkol sa pakikipaglandian niya sa college senior niya. Habang papunta ako doon, naaksidente ako at dumaranas ng pansamantalang pagkawala ng memorya pagkatapos ng head injury. Nagmamadali siyang pumunta sa ospital ngunit itinuro ang kanyang dormmate na parang walang emosyon at sinasabing boyfriend ko ‘yon. Gusto niyang gamitin ito para tuluyan makawala sakin. Wala akong kamalay-malay dito kaya hinawakan ko ang kamay ng gwapong dormmate niya at tinitigan siya ng nagningning na mga mata. "So, ikaw ang boyfriend ko." Maya maya ay nabawi ko na ang alaala ko pero gusto ko pa rin makasama ang gwapong dormmate. Gusto kong putulin ang relasyon sa tunay kong boyfriend, ngunit siya ay nag drama.

It was my third year with Timothy Jones when he had fallen for someone else and wanted to end things. At his birthday party, he embraced a petite and cute woman, telling his friends, "It's better to go for the sweet, innocent ones." Someone asked, "What about Olivia?" "Olivia? We've been fooling around for three years. Sure, she's fun, but sometimes you need a change of pace, right?" The "Olivia" he casually dismissed was me. And his new girlfriend? None other than my dad's illegitimate daughter, Willow Lambert. It was fine. I decided it was time for me to change things up, too.

Sienna Lewis had been with Sea City’s cold and distant CEO, Zayden Scott, for four years, but he still refused to let his guard down. So, she called her mother. “Mom, you can go ahead and arrange that pilot interview for me now.” On the other end, Helen Bennett sounded shocked. “Really? Didn’t you want to stay in Sea City and get married? You even gave up your dream of becoming a pilot.” Sienna looked at Zayden under the dim lights. He was madly obsessed with that girl and terrified of losing her. She smiled self-deprecatingly. Once she returned to Helmswick, her career would pick up again. From then on, nothing would hold her back. She would be Sienna Lewis, the pilot, again, not some pathetic woman—trapped in a forbidden love affair.

Carl Larson's intern is about to die, and her only wish is for him to sleep with her once. I disagree, and he says I'm petty. "It's just a one-time thing. She's about to die! Why do you have to assume I'm up to something dirty?" Is that so? I've seen them together more than once, though. I later agree, and he's relieved… until he sees me lying on his operation table for an abortion. He widens his eyes in disbelief. "What are you doing here?" I smile. I want him to murder his child. I want him to regret this for life.

My mother-in-law brings a woman from the countryside. She looks like she's up to no good when she asks my husband and I to care for the woman. My husband is a mama's boy through and through. His gaze darts around, and he doesn't object to his mother's words. Is it a trend nowadays for people to serve mistresses on a silver platter? It looks like I'll have to do my best in "caring" for them, then…
