Ci-n Peralta Real Name

I never believed in second chances. Not after Cynthia. She was my confidant… until death tore her from me and left this mansion echoing with ghosts. Inilibing ko na rin ang puso ko kasabay ng pakamatay ni Cynthia . She was my wife. My peace. My mistake. Then her daughter moved in. Liza. The forbidden reminder of everything I shouldn’t want—young, alive, reckless in ways her mother never was. She looks at me like she sees through the monster I’ve become. Sa tuwing ngingiti siya,  the ache in my chest returns—violent, dangerous, hungry. Every brush of her skin ignites something I can’t bury anymore. I tell myself it’s guilt. I tell myself I’m just protecting her. Pero ang totoo? I want her. Hindi bilang stepdaughter. Not as Cynthia’s child. I want her as mine—completely, ruinously, irredeemably mine. They’ll call me a sinner. A man who crossed the line. Ngunit sa tuwing tinitingnan ako ni Liza, trembling, wanting... I knew I’d already crossed it. I tell myself I’m protecting her, but each night, the lie weakens. Because when she looks at me, it isn’t fear I see—it’s want. And God help me... I want her too. This isn’t love. It’s a beautiful disaster. And I’d burn the world just to feel her breathe my name again.

Three years ago, on what was supposed to be the happiest day of her life, Lynell Gibbs was left completely broken. It was her 20th birthday — a day she had been so excited for — but instead of candles and wishes, she got heartbreak. Shaun Hernandez, the guy she loved with all her heart, broke up with her. No fight, no warning. Just a simple, cold explanation: “Nagising na lang daw siya at narealize na hindi na niya ito mahal.” Those words haunted her for years. And no matter how strong she tried to be, the pain left a scar too deep to forget. But she survived. She stood up, rebuilt herself piece by piece, and slowly became the woman she never thought she could be — stronger, wiser, and even more beautiful. Gone was the naïve girl who gave everything to someone who didn’t deserve her. She had learned her lesson. She moved forward and opened her heart again. That’s when Martin came into her life — kind, respectful, and everything Shaun wasn’t. For the first time, she felt safe. Finally, she believed she had healed. Until one unexpected announcement shattered her peace. Their company was under new management. At first, she didn’t think much of it — change was normal. But everything came crashing down the moment she heard the name of their new CEO. Shaun Hernandez. The same man who once tore her apart... was now her boss.

Pagkagising ni Desiree, wala ni isang saplot sa katawan niya. Ngunit higit pa sa pagkabigla niya ay ang taong natutulog sa tabi niya—ang lalaking pinakaayaw niya sa lahat. Mas lalo pa siyang nabahala dahil ramdam pa rin niya ang init ng gabing iyon na ayaw man niyang aminin, ay tumatak sa isip niya. "Ano, gusto mong ituloy ito o gusto mong ibaon na lang sa limot at magpanggap na walang nangyari?" "Ang ibig mong sabihin, gusto mong akuin kitang responsibilidad ko dahil nagtalik tayo?" malamig na tanong ng lalaki, sabay taas ng kilay. Ang gwapo nitong mukha ay may halong pang-aasar na lalong nagpa-init ng ulo ni Desiree. Halos gusto na niyang sugurin at kalmutin ito. Halos sumabog sa inis si Desiree. Hindi man lang niya napag-isipan nang gano’n kalalim ang nangyari kagabi. "Hindi!" Sigaw niya, sabay irap at iwas ng tingin. "Isang beses lang iyon, wala nang dapat pag-usapan pa. Wala akong pakialam." Nagkibit-balikat siya at malamig na nagsabi, "Mas mabuti pang kalimutan na lang natin pareho ang lahat. Walang nasaktan, walang talo." Hindi naman siya magpapatali sa isang lalaki kahit pa... napakahusay nito sa kama. "Kung gano’n, ayos," sagot ni Terrence habang nag-uunat at naglakad palabas ng kwarto na parang walang nangyari. Ngunit bago siya tuluyang lumabas, lumingon pa ito at mayabang na nagsabi, "Sana lang hindi mo ipagmalaki kahit kanino na nakuha mo ako."
