Cheers Jeff

"Oh my goodness! This is exactly what I've been saying!" Mikan said, annoyed. "Why do you still refuse to break up with that Jiro? What does he have?" "M, it's normal for lovers to have disagreements," I replied calmly. "K, he's always the one causing issues. Aren't you tired of it?" Selena asked me. I shook my head. "I understand him, girls. Sometimes I'm moody too. Maybe his temper just flared up at the wrong time." I've been defending Jiro to them since we started dating in my second year of high school, and now we're in our fourth year of college. We had another argument recently, and I've been apologizing to him since the other day, even though I didn't know what I did wrong. But he hasn't been answering any of my texts or calls. So tonight, even though I didn't want to go with them to the Spade Club, I had no choice because they dragged me along. I just hope Jiro doesn't find out about this because he doesn't like it when I go clubbing without him. It might make him even angrier. "I think there's nothing we can do about Kylie. She's head over heels for Jiro," Ariana said. Ariana isn't this quiet usually when she's drunk. They all laughed while I forced a smile. Go ahead, laugh at me, but when you fall in love, I'll be rolling on the floor laughing. "Alright, cheers to Kylie's love madness," Mikan raised her shot glass, and A and S followed suit, while I watched them. I just sighed. "Hey! K, don't be a killjoy. Come on, raise your shot glass!" Selena shouted at me because the music was loud in the Spade Club. It was already ten in the evening.

In our pack, every werewolf can create one moon stone in their lifetime. These stones can enhance our wolf's power and are crucial for becoming Alpha. In my past life, I worked tirelessly to craft my moon stone. I wanted to become our pack's Alpha more than anything. But on the day of the Alpha selection, something went terribly wrong. After absorbing my moon stone's power, I couldn't control my wolf. Instead, my wolf submitted to Katherine, my mate's stepsister. Katherine hadn't always been part of our pack. When she was alone and vulnerable, my mate, Beta Ethan, had convinced me to accept and care for her. The pack erupted in cheers as Katherine became the new Alpha. Ethan, who had always claimed to love me deeply, proposed to Katherine in front of everyone. They sealed it with a passionate kiss. Suddenly, I was public enemy number one. Everyone accused me of stealing Katherine's moon stone, saying that's why I couldn't control its power. Even Ethan, my mate, looked at me with disgust. "Thief," he spat, severing our mate bond on the spot. The pack turned on me. They chased me down, their teeth tearing into my flesh. As I lay dying, my body broken and bleeding, I saw Ethan and Katherine together. They nuzzled each other, whispering sweet nothings while my life ebbed away. In my final moments, I realized a cruel truth. While Ethan's wolf was my fated mate, his human heart belonged to Katherine. But even as death claimed me, I couldn't understand. How could the moon stone I crafted serve Katherine instead? Then, darkness. And light again. I opened my eyes to find myself back in time, one week before the Alpha selection. This time, I made a different choice. Instead of crafting a moon stone, I left the pack to train alone in the volcano. Ethan's voice filled my head through our mind link. He demanded to know why I'd left the pack at such a crucial time. I cut the connection without a word. Shifting into my wolf form, I jumped into the lava.

Architect Miles Muñoz, isang matapang, palaban at kabigha-bighaning probinsyana. Nasa kan'ya na ang lahat pero lingid sa kaalaman ng iba ay ginapangan na siya ng pagkabahala sapagkat sa edad na dalawampu't siyam ay ni minsan hindi pa niya naranasan na magkanobyo. Nais na niyang magkaanak at bumuo ng sariling pamilya ngunit paano nga ba niya iyon maisakatuparan gayong kahit ni isang manliligaw nga lang ay ni wala siya? Engineer Jeffry Shaun Villafuente, isang matagumpay at mayaman na business tycoon. Isang happy-go-lucky guy at certified playboy. "What? You are looking for a baby maker?!" tila nawala ang pagkalasing ni Jeff sa narinig. Kasalukuyan silang nag-uusap sa bar habang umiinom ng alak. "Are you that desperate? You will be looking for an anonymous man para lang maging baby maker mo?" Umiling-iling ito at diretsang nilagok ang laman ng hawak nitong baso. "Ano naman ngayon? Uso na ngayon 'yan sa mga nais magkaanak lang." "You have a point." Tumango-tango ito ngunit sandaling natigilan. Nilingon sya nito at muling nagsalita. "Why don't you just ask for my cells then? By that, you don't have to look far." Sumilay ang pilyong ngiti sa labi nito. Siya naman ang nagulat. Sandaling tinitigan niya ang mukha ni Jeffry at napaisip sa suhestiyon nito. Sinubukan niyang basahin at sukatin kung gaano ito kaseryoso sa sinabi. Hanggang sa huli ay nagkibit-balikat na lamang siya. "Sa bagay pinamimigay mo lang naman kahit kanino iyang sperm cells mo. Fine. Just give me a baby, no more no less. How's that?" Isang desisyon ang kanyang pinakawalan, pasyang kahit siya ay lihim na nangamba. Tila napatda pa ito sa agaran na pagsang-ayon niya bagama't kalakip naman nito ay ang nabanaag niyang pagkislap ng mga mata ng lalaki. "Well, that's great! Then your wish is my command!" he said with a teasing smile.
