Collateral For Tl Adalah

Si Elina ay ang anak ni Demeter at mag-isang naninirahan sa gubat ng Elusian. Sa loob ng mga taon ay hindi bumalik ang kaniyang ina sa hindi matukoy na kadahilanan. Sa kaniyang pag-iisa sa buhay ay lungkot ang naipon sa kaniyang buhay. Hanggang sa mayroon siyang nakilalang misteryosong binata. Isang binatang malamig ang puso. Hindi niya tinulungan ang dalaga na maka-alis sa malawak na gubat. Pagkatapos ng araw na iyon ay tumindi ang lungkot ng dalaga sa kaniyang buhay at siya'y nawawalan na ng pag-asang may makatagpo muli. Sa hindi inaasahan ay biglang may pangyayari na hindi maipaliwanag. Ang mga nagliliwanag na paru-paro ang nagtipon-tipon sa kalangitan at patungo sila sa hilagang parte ng gubat. Iyon ang gubat ng Nysa. Ang mapanganib na parte ng Elusian. Hindi nagdalawang isip si Elina sa sundan ang mga ito, hanggang sa nakita niya ang bukid ng mga iba't-ibang uri ng bulaklak. Gayundin ang nagliliwanag na pulang bulaklak. Ito'y mahiwaga. Nang bunutin ito ni Elina, ang kaniyang buhay ay biglang nagbago. Nakarating siya sa puder ng Mundong Ilalim, at nakilala ang diyos na namumuno dito, si Hades. Laking gulat ni Elina na ang diyos na nasa kaniyang harapan ay nakilala na niya noon. Nag-alok si Hades ng kundisyon sa kaniya, kapalit ng inutang na buhay. Ang maglingkod siya habang-buhay. Lumipas ang mga araw ay nakilala ni Elina ang totoong si Hades, at ang hindi inaasahan ay ang mahuhulog ang kaniyang loob sa kilalang malupit na diyos. Nagdaan pa ang mga araw na magkasama sila at ang mga pagbabago'y namumulaklak na tila mga rosas sa dilim. Ngunit, titibay ba ang kanilang pag-iibigan sa mga dadaang pagsubok sa kanila?

Ngunit nang muling bigyan ng pagkakataon upang mabuhay dala niya ang lahat ng sugat at galit mula sa nakaraan.

She had her whole junior year mapped out. Volleyball. Late nights with her friends. Maybe telling her brother's best friend the thing she's been not-saying for two years. Then her left leg started hurting and a Tuesday trip to the ER rewrote everything. Sloane Deshazo, sixteen, has spent her whole life being easy to love. No drama, no needs, no complications. Ewing Sarcoma, stage 2, doesn't care about any of that. And neither, it turns out, does Chandler Pavelka, who keeps showing up without being asked, in yesterday's jeans and an inside-out hoodie, like staying is the most obvious thing in the world. Sloane knows how to fight. She's learning, slower, how to let someone stay. But remission isn't guaranteed, and some days the scariest thing isn't the diagnosis. It's wanting something this much.

She was once the cherished daughter of a respected professor, but now, she is nothing more than a shadow in the city-poor, struggling, and alone. Whispers follow her wherever she goes. Beauty like hers, they say, is a curse for a girl without power. They assume she'll do anything for money. But she is fire, untamed and unbroken. The university, once her father's legacy, is now under the control of a powerful man-a man who watches her with a cruel smile, waiting for the moment she will break. He holds the strings to her fate, dragging her into a silent war where wealth and control always win. Then, he returns. The boy who once played by her side, the boy who vanished the night of the tragedy, is back-no longer a friend, no longer the boy she knew. Now, he stands at the front of the lecture hall, wearing the title of Professor. His cold, unreadable eyes lock onto hers. His touch lingers like a ghost from the past. He helps her in the shadows, yet she feels his presence in every downfall she faces. Does he still hold the warmth of their past, or has he returned only to watch her drown? As secrets unravel and desires ignite, she must decide-fight against the power that seeks to destroy her, or surrender to the darkness lurking within the man she once called her own.

He doesn't take no for an answer. And she's never said yes-until now. Arden Blake has built world on control. A high-powered event planner with a sharp tongue and tighter walls, she doesn't have time for complications-especially not ones wrapped in six feet of tattoos, arrogance, and pure sin. Enter Rhett Maddox- ex military, ex lover, and the man who walked away without a word five years ago. Now's he's back in town, cocky as ever, and owning the nightclub she's been forced to work with. The last thing she want is to play nice. But the way he looks at her? Like he remembers exactly how she sounded when she used to beg for it? Yeah That's dangerous. Rhett doesn't play games .He plays for keeps. And this time, he wants more than her body- he wants her surrender. Mind, mouth, and soul. But Arden doesn't beg anymore. Unless he makes her...
