Brilliant Brin

Nagbago ang buhay ni Arisielle Dominguez, nang ampunin siya ng pamilyang Del Quinco–Huangcho—isang mayamang angkang may limang anak na lalaki at isang babae na kaedad niya. Akala niya natagpuan niya na ang tunay na tahanan. Mula sa unang araw pa lang, alam na niyang iba ang titig sa kanya ni Knife Blade Del Quinco-Huangcho—ang tahimik, matalim, at misteryosong middle child na parang laging may tinatago. Lumipas ang mga taon. Si Knife, isa nang kilalang detective—brilliant, cold, at halos hindi na mahawakan ng mundo. Si Arisielle naman, isang designer na tahimik ang pamumuhay, pero hindi pa rin nakakaalpas sa mga titig at salita ng lalaking matagal na niyang iniiwasan. Hanggang isang araw, biglang gumuho ang lahat. Namatay si Katana, ang kapatid nilang babae, at ang mga bakas ng katotohanan ay nagtuturo sa isang lugar na tinatawag na Euphoria—isang lihim na mundo ng kasiyahan, karangyaan, at kasalanan. At doon sila muling nagtagpo. Sa lugar kung saan hindi mo alam kung sino ang inosente at sino ang nagtatago ng halimaw sa ilalim ng ngiti. Doon muling sumiklab ang tensyon—hindi na lang dahil sa nakaraan, kundi dahil sa pagnanasang hindi na nila kayang itago. Sa gitna ng mga lihim, tukso, at kasinungalingan—isang tanong lang ang kailangang sagutin: Hanggang saan mo ipaglalaban ang pag-ibig kung ang tanging bawal ay siya ring tanging gusto mo? "You're mine, Arisielle. My little sis." "I am always yours Kuya KB."

I was married to one of the city's richest billionaires, but inside his home, I was just a ghost. Damian never once looked at me with love. Never did he touch me with kindness. He didn't see me as a woman, or even a person. I was just… a stand-in. A stand-in while he waited for someone else to come and my heart broke in silence. But the day he walked into our home with his first love, Vanessa, hand in hand it finally broke for good. I found my strength and I placed a signed divorce papers on his desk. Damian scoffed, his eyes cold. “You’ll regret this. You’ll crawl back. Women like you always do.” I thought he was right. I thought I had no one, nowhere to go, and nothing to live for. Until the black car stopped in front of me. That night, three powerful men stepped out, calling me by a name I didn’t even know was mine. Adrian Valehart, a ruthless tycoon whose eyes were as sharp as steel and silenced a room. Nathaniel Valehart, the cold, brilliant lawyer who never lost a case. And Leo Valehart, the superstar adored by millions. They told me I was, their long-lost sister, the only daughter of a billionaire family. I thought they were wrong. But when Adrian gave me shares worth billions, Nathan vowed Damian would walk away with nothing but shame. Leo wrapped his arm around me and declared to the world, “This is my sister, my one and only.” Everything changed And Damian… Damian refuses to let go. He came crawling back, begging for a second chance. “Please, give me another chance,” he said. But my three overprotective brothers wouldn't let him touch me and his pride will not die quietly.

He pulled his hand from my grip, "What is your problem?" "What is my problem? My problem is the way you were flirting with that guy.” "What I do have nothing to do with you Carlson, you are my boss yes but I'm allowed to hangout around other people and Peter was just being nice." "Nice? You even know his name, why are you so cheap?..." It happened so fast I didn't see it coming all I felt was the stink on my cheeks and the tears in Enzo's eyes. …………….. Carlson Coleman never planned on working for his father's company, but a deal is a deal—he gets everything he wants, or he walks. What he didn’t expect was for “everything” to include Enzo Grey, the quiet, brilliant boy he spent years bullying through high school and college… who also happens to be his new personal assistant. Carlson’s always been drawn to Enzo in ways he couldn’t understand—or admit. Back then, bullying him was the only way Carlson knew to keep him close, to assert control over the chaos Enzo made him feel. But now, years later, the tables have turned. Carlson is the CEO of Coleman Group Ltd., and Enzo is all grown up, confident, and devastatingly off-limits. But some obsessions don’t die. Carlson will do whatever it takes to keep Enzo by his side—this time without the cruelty, without the masks. Only problem? Enzo remembers everything. And forgiveness doesn’t come easy when your past is paved with torment. Now, in the high-rise world of business, boardrooms, and broken trust, Carlson must confront not only his deepest desires but also the man he used to be. Because this time, if he wants Enzo, he’ll have to earn him.

WARNING: RATED 18+| NO RAPE!!! Excerpt; "Was I a good girl?" she hiccupped, her bare skin flushed and glowed as she rolled across the sheets like she owned the bed—and him. Six weeks without his touch had scraped her raw. She was slowly losing touch of her sanity. "You did good, Penguin," Alanis said, his voice low and rough as he reached for his tie. And just like that, the spell cracked. He was leaving...again. It wasn't fair, she had to remain in the shadows, while her perfect half-sister was rubbing his chest in public. Poppy slammed the door shut, while she arranged her robe, her eyes wet and wild. "Can you… stay… just one more night?" He hesitated. And she saw it, the guilt and pull. "You know how this—" Something made him stop mid-sentence. His gaze dropped. One sharp breath, and he was staring at her peaked nipple like it was a commandment. "Please?" she breathed, arching toward him. With a low growl, he tossed her back on the bed because he had been starved, and he was ready to devour his Penguin. ...
