Coffee Cherry Tree

“Isang fake na relasyon. Isang tunay na kilig. Paano kung ang puso ang unang bumigay?” Hindi inakala ni Luna Reyes na ang simpleng pagtatrabaho sa isang coffee shop ay mauuwi sa viral na love story—at hindi rin niya inakalang billionaire pala ang tinapunan niya ng kape. Enter Ethan Villareal—isang mysterious, drop-dead gorgeous CEO na may sariling tech empire. Sa isang maling akala at trending video, napagkamalan silang magkasintahan ng publiko. Imbes na itama ang lahat, may alok si Ethan: pumayag na lang sa fake relationship kapalit ng tulong sa pangarap ni Luna—ang sarili niyang café. Walang commitment, walang feelings. Acting lang. Pero habang tumatagal ang palabas nila, parang hindi na scripted ang mga ngiti, hawak-kamay, at titig. At kung dati, kunwari lang ang kilig… ngayon, parang totoo na. Sa isang mundo kung saan lahat ay pwedeng pekein, paano kung ang puso nila ang maging totoo?

Ashley ran deep into the forest, tears streaming down her face. Her classmates had gone too far this time. The full moon illuminated her path as she stumbled through the woods, eventually stopping at a tree, breathless. She noticed the absence of party lights and realized she was deep in the forest. Her new dress was stained with blood, and more tears fell as she looked down at the mess. Looking up, she screamed in agony before collapsing, hugging her knees, shivering with fear. "Somebody help me," she whispered. Meanwhile, a creature with large paws raced through the forest, its grey fur ruffling in the wind. It stopped, sensing blood. Without hesitation, it followed the scent at top speed. Ashley started hearing noises and raised her head. "Hello? Is anyone there?" she called out, nervous. She noticed a blue glowing object behind the bushes, resembling eyes, and heard a howl. Terrified, she gasped… She just came in contact with a wolf!

When Ezra Anderson's sister dies, he inherits three young children and a crumbling rural property he's nowhere near prepared for. Overwhelmed, heartbroken, and freshly dumped, Ezra turns to the one person he shouldn't: Sebastian Brown—the gentle, steady Omega child psychologist he once shared one reckless night with... and never dared to call back.
