Celso Ad Castillo

Camila was born a slave, and for that, she wasn't entitled to a last name. She and her mother, a prisoner of war, served diligently in the house of a Jorvikian General, who took pity on them and gave them a home. Life was relatively smooth until Camila became an unwitting pawn in a plot to ruin the life of Ronan, the first son of the Morosov household. On the morning of Ronan's wedding day, Camila woke up in his bed, clueless about what had transpired. This incident sent their lives spiralling into sorrow and pain. Ronan lost the woman he loved and wanted to marry, while Camila and her mother were branded as enemies and social climbers. Life became unbearable for the young slave, and things worsened when she discovered that the incident had resulted in a pregnancy. Fearing for her child's and her mother's safety in a harsh world, Camila was surprised when the Morosovs showed some humanity. They allowed her to keep the baby on the condition that she would raise the child as a nanny. This option was better than being thrown out on the streets to fend for herself and her baby. Nearly two years later, Ronan returned, having stayed away. When he realised what had happened, he decided to take Camila and his daughter to live with him. Although Camila was to live as his maid and their daughter's nanny, the question remained: would the bond they shared ignite an unknown spark between them? Would Ronan forsake his ambitions and allow himself to fall for a woman he was trained not to love?

On the night Elena Carter discovers she is carrying her husband’s child, she believes her dreams have finally come true. For three years, she has endured Damien Rothschild’s coldness, cherished every fleeting moment of tenderness, and held on to the hope that one day he might love her back. But instead of joy, her secret gift is met with cruelty. A single letter, accusing Elena and her late mother of orchestrating the accident that nearly killed Damien’s parents, shatters everything. Betrayed and blinded by rage, Damien casts her aside, accusing her of lies, greed, and manipulation. Worse, he threatens to destroy her brother’s future unless she signs the divorce papers. Heartbroken but resolute, Elena walks away, pregnant, abandoned, and determined to protect her child from the man she once loved more than life itself. Five years later, Elena has rebuilt her life. She is stronger, successful, and devoted to raising her twins in secret. But Damien Rothschild is a man who never forgets. He never lets go. When he learns that she carried his children, nothing will stop him from claiming back what he lost. Now Elena must face the man who broke her, the father of her children, and the billionaire whose love is as dangerous as his power. Will she let him back into her life, or will she protect her heart and her family from him forever?

Will Winter be willing to grant fate and love a second chance, and will Summer summon the courage to embrace the gift bestowed by the goddess?

"If I touched you, you’d never go back to him." Arden's words rang in my head. My breath caught. Now that I was out of the palace, nothing stood between us. No gilded cages. No cameras in every corner. No Ivana breathing down my neck. Nothing to stop him from making good on those words. And the worst part? A traitorous part of me was curious. What if he was right? Arden was Richard’s brother. The wrong man. The forbidden man. And yet my body betrayed me. My heart beat harder just thinking about him. My lips tingled at the memory of his voice, his smirk, the way his eyes had lingered on me like he saw everything I tried to hide.

Pagdilat ng mga mata ni Aurora mula pagkamatay, parang muling isinilang ang kanyang sarili—anim na taon ang lumipas, wala siyang alaala, ngunit muli siyang nabuhay na may bagong pamilya. May asawa siya ngayon, si Samuel Castillo, isang makapangyarihang CEO na kilala sa kanyang yaman, tapang, at malamig na ugali. Mayroon din silang dalawang anak na siya lamang ang tinatawag na “Mama.” At sa bawat araw na kapiling niya ang kanyang bagong pamilya, lalo niyang nararamdaman ang misteryo at bigat ng bagong mundong kanyang kinabibilangan. Ngunit sa anino ng kanyang nakaraan, may isa pang lalaking nagtataglay ng kanyang puso—si Lucas, isang makapangyarihang Mafia Boss na minsang minahal ng Aurora bago siya mawalan ng alaala. Para sa nakaraang Aurora, si Lucas ang lahat; ngunit para sa kasalukuyan, tila si Samuel ang pinipili ng kanyang puso, kahit pa puno ng sugat, kapangyarihan, at kontrol ang kanilang relasyon. Magsisimula ang isang laban na hindi niya hiniling—isang tunggalian ng dalawang makapangyarihang lalaki, parehong handang gawin ang lahat upang angkinin siya. Sa gitna ng yaman, kapangyarihan, at pagnanasa, matutuklasan ni Aurora na siya ang magiging gantimpala at sanhi ng isang digmaan ng pag-ibig, pagkasuklam, at pagnanais na maghari sa kanyang puso. Ngunit sa dulo ng lahat, kanino nga ba tunay na kikiling ang kanyang damdamin—sa pagmamahal ng kanyang nakaraan, o sa bagong buhay na pilit bumabalot sa kanya?

"What am I to you? A trash picker?" I asked him sarcastically, looking at him from head to toe in disdain. "Lauren." he growled, clenching his fists tightly, glaring at me in disbelief. "Yeah, I know this is my name. You don't need to remind me, and please don't pop up in front of me like an unwanted ad in the middle of an interesting scene. You irritate me the most in this way." I scolded him, still with an ugly expression in disgust on my face. "So, now I disgust you, huh? Why didn't you disgust before when I." "Because I was a fool back then. I assumed a filthy rock as a gem and paid a heavy price for that." Before he could complete his sentence, I interrupted him, scolding him in a loud voice. His already widened angry eyes widened more in shock this time. I took a step forward while locking my gaze with him. "A scum like you who used me when he needed me and then slapped the divorce paper doesn't deserve even a glance from me, Gabriel. Never bother me again, or else what I will do to you, you can't even think about that." "Hey, babe. Why are you here?" I beamed when I heard his magnetic voice calling me from behind. I immediately moved towards him when Gabriel held my wrist. "You are making a mistake, Lauren," he warned me in a stiff voice. I yanked my hand from his grip and threw a disgusting gaze on him before walking towards the boy who treated me like a treasure. Gabriel’s devotion to his first love made me realize that loving myself is the only thing that can make me happy forever. I grabbed Vincent's arm with a beaming smile.
