Catcher In The Rye Chapter 24

Siya si Natalie Flores-Vergara. Dating 18 years old, ngunit pagkatapos ng isang trahedya, bigla itong nagising sa ospital—may asawa, dalawang anak, at isang kasal na nasa bingit ng pagkawasak. Sa isang idlap, siya na si Natalie Vergara na 24 years old, anim na taon ang nakalipas. Ang dating mahina at bulag sa pag-ibig na babae ay nawala na. Sa halip, bumalik ang isang babaeng muling ipinanganak sa bagong panahon—matapang, matalino, at handang bawiin ang lahat ng ninakaw sa kanya. Habang unti-unti niyang binabawi ang tiwala ng kanyang mga anak at ginagamot ang mga sugat ng nakaraan, natuklasan niyang ang lalaking kaniyang minsa’y nasaktan—si Alexander Vergara, ang misteryosong CEO na minsang minahal niya—ang tunay na nagligtas sa kanya anim na taon na ang nakalipas. Ngunit habang isinusulat ni Natalie ang bagong yugto ng kanyang buhay bilang ang Miracle Doctor Thalie at bilang Ms. Flores, ang pinakamakapangyarihang babaeng negosyante sa industriya, muling lilitaw ang lalaking minsang sinira siya—Dominic Almeda, ang lalaking minsan niyang minahal nang buong puso. Sa pagitan ng paghihiganti, paghilom, at pag-ibig, pipiliin ni Natalie kung sino ang karapat-dapat manatili sa kanyang muling nabubuong mundo… Ang lalaking minsan siyang nilason, o ang lalaking minsan niyang nasaktan?

RATED 18 This is NOT your regular puppy love Christmas story, fit for a casual road trip with friends/family. This book contains extreme s****l contents, every chapter another opportunity to dr*p your pants, and mindlessly daydream about the first time you got laid out of your senses. If this isn't your vibe, pick up another book this instant. But if you're ready to walk this sin with Lilian, who had thought all her life that she hated men until she arrived at her best friend's house to spend Christmas. Sit tight, watch the scenes roll out. Remember, don't scream too loud. *** I never knew I could crave a man this hard, until I agreed to spend the Christmas break at Sonia's, my best friend I wouldn't even trade for gold. "I have two daddies. Surprise!" her voice had trailed off with every other sound as I beheld my forbidden desires. The surprise isn't that Sonia had been brought up by gay fathers and I knew nothing about it until now , the surprise is: Why was I m**ning my soul out in the middle of the night of Christmas, at the mercy of Sonia's supposedly gay daddies while she slept downstairs. I continued to be consumed bare and r*w, and that was the best Christmas present ever.

After two years of marriage, I believed I was living the dream—until the day I gave birth to our long-awaited heir. The house was filled with joy as my husband's family arrived, bearing gifts and ready to bestow a name upon our child, as tradition dictated. But the happiness of the day shattered in an instant when my husband walked in, hand in hand with his childhood sweetheart. In front of everyone, he announced not only our divorce but also his engagement to her, as if I had never mattered. *** "I’m divorcing Stacy," Jason announces, his voice unwavering, "to marry Nicole Cruz, my childhood sweetheart." He points to the woman standing before him who smiles and waves at everyone in the room. My world tilts on its axis. The words echo in my mind, louder and louder until they drown out everything else. What is going on?? "But why?" I whisper, my voice barely audible, even to myself. I'm unable to believe his betrayal. Jason doesn’t even glance at the child in my arms. "Because this has been a long time coming, Stacy. I’ve only stayed this long out of obligation and not love." Important Author’s Note: This is a rewritten version of my book The Alpha’s Betrayal: Reclaiming His Rejected Luna. From Chapter 12 onward, the story takes a new turn with fresh twists and drama. Thank you for reading—I hope you enjoy this new version!

Jadi ia memilih aman-bertato, bersikap dingin, menjaga jarak. Semua orang boleh dekat, tapi tak boleh terlalu dalam. Sayangnya, hati tidak pernah benar-benar patuh pada logika.

Kepedulian yang terasa berbeda. Seseorang yang tak pergi meski ia berkali-kali menyuruhnya menjauh. Ia tahu risikonya. Ia tahu bagaimana akhirnya nanti. Tapi bagaimana kalau untuk pertama kalinya, ada seseorang yang tidak ingin menyelamatkannya, melainkan memilih tinggal dan berjalan bersamanya? Di antara luka yang belum sembuh dan masa lalu yang terus mengejar, Deandra harus memilih: tetap memeluk ketakutannya... atau mencoba mempercayai cinta, meski itu berarti membuka kemungkinan untuk hancur lagi. Karena terkadang, yang paling menakutkan bukanlah patah hati- melainkan bahagia, dan tidak tahu cara mempertahankannya. Esensi Cinta adalah cerita tentang trauma yang tidak selesai, tentang keluarga yang tidak sempurna, dan tentang keberanian paling sulit: membiarkan diri sendiri bahagia.
