Meriah Cellis Mendoza was a good student. Lumaki siyang palaging nasa isip ang pag-aaral. Hindi kailanman niya nilagay ang pag-aaral sa dulo. Studying, academics, school was her top priority.

Alessia n'aurait jamais dû croiser la route de Lorenzo Valente, un mafieux impitoyable à la tête d'un empire criminel. Pourtant, dès leur première rencontre, une attirance aussi violente qu'incontrôlable s’est installée entre eux. Lorenzo, charismatique mais froid, l’a prise sous son aile, mais jamais avec la promesse d’une exclusivité. Alessia, pourtant, s’est abandonnée à lui, espérant qu’il finirait par la choisir, par la sauver de la solitude et du vide qui la ronge. Mais Lorenzo est un homme de pouvoir, incapable de s’attacher à une seule femme. le cœur d’Alessia est brisé lorsqu’elle réalise qu’elle doit partager Lorenzo avec quatre autres femmes : Bianca, une héritière arrogante et influente, qui considère Alessia comme une rivale indigne de Lorenzo. Clara, une amante manipulatrice, sensuelle et perfide, qui pousse Lorenzo à se détourner d’Alessia. Giulia, une femme calme et mystérieuse, dont la discrétion masque une volonté de s’imposer dans le cœur de Lorenzo. Valeria, une ancienne maîtresse sadique et cruelle, qui prend plaisir à humilier Alessia à chaque occasion.

Pire encore, Lorenzo la garde proche, protecteur et possessif, incapable de la laisser partir alors qu'il refuse de la choisir ouvertement.

Mais dans le monde de la mafia, s’éloigner de Lorenzo pourrait bien signer sa perte…

In the Philippines, there is a well-known and commonly practiced superstitious belief called pagpag, loosely translated as "to dust-off." One should never go home directly after visiting a wake or a funeral, because the ghost of the deceased might latch on and cause hauntings or attract evil.

Follow the story of Akira Basilio: a part-time staff who mans the Luntian Street 7-Eleven on Thursday and Friday nights, which sounds completely normal; except Akira had the ability to communicate with the dead. She maintained a quiet life by keeping her sixth sense a secret from both the living and the departed, until a particularly persistent spirit flips everything into chaos when he entangles Akira in a hunt for a murderer.
