Dead Man Walking Novels & Stories

In the public eye, Adrian Rafael Montenegro is the perfect billionaire—powerful, composed, and dangerously charismatic. A man who gets everything he wants. Except her. Isla never intended to stand out. A simple woman with quiet strength, she believed she could remain invisible in Adrian’s world—until she rejected him. Not just his attention, but his proposal. For a man like Adrian, “no” is not an answer—it’s a challenge. What begins as an obsession slowly tightens into control. And when jealousy is ignited and patience runs out, Isla disappears without a trace. She wakes in a private estate that doesn’t exist on any map—dressed in white, a ring she cannot remove wrapped around her finger, and doors that do not open for someone like her. “I gave you a choice,” Adrian tells her, his voice calm, unyielding. “You turned it into a game.” Inside her gilded cage, resistance has consequences—and obedience becomes survival. He calls it protection. He calls it love. But the more Isla fights him, the deeper she’s pulled into his darkness. Because Adrian is not just a man obsessed—he’s a man who believes she already belongs to him. And the most dangerous part? A part of her is beginning to understand him…and that might be the one thing that destroys her completely.

She sold herself, was framed up and imprisoned for a man’s personal motives―By a rich and dark man just like his name, Dark Villaraigosa. Isinakripisyo niya ang sarili sa kapakanan ng pamilya pero siya ang napahamak sa kamay ng lalaking wala siyang ibang alam kung hindi tahimik at nakakatakot, liban sa katangian na gwapo at walang katulad – pero peligroso at parang bato.

Maria Vienna Schneider is a ghost in the underworld-a second-ranked mafia member who moves unseen, striking with deadly precision. Sa araw, siya ay nagtatago sa maskara ng isang hindi kapansin-pansing nerd, isang pantakip na nagtatago ng kanyang tunay na pagkakakilanlan. Ngunit ang kanyang pinakabagong misyon ay naiiba sa lahat ng kanyang hinarap. Ngayong pagkakataon, hindi siya ipinadala para pumatay. Ipinadala siya upang may protektahan. Her mission? Draven Monticello. Heir of Monticellos, a man marked for death by enemies lurking in the shadows... and the man she's secretly loved for years. Upang maprotektahan si Draven, kailangang gawin ni Mavis ang hindi niya kailan man maisip na magagawa niya—to marry Draven. Bound by duty and deception, she enters a forced marriage with a man who despises her, unaware of the woman behind the mask. Ang bawat sandali kasama si Draven ay parehong isang pahirap at isang kasiyahan, isang masalimuot na sayaw sa pagitan ng tungkulin at pagnanasa. Ngunit habang lumalabo ang mga linya ng kanyang misyon at ng kanyang puso, nalagay siya sa sitwasyon kung saan kailangan niyang mamili. Manatili sa tabi ng lalaking hindi siya kayang mahalin, at isugal ang sarili niyang kapakanan upang si Draven ay protektahan? O ang magparaya at lumayo, bago ang mga lihim na kanyang tinatago ay sirain silang dalawa? In a world where love is dangerous and betrayal is inevitable, Mavis must decide. . . will she fight for the man she can never have, or sacrifice her heart to keep him safe?

Tatlong taon na ang lumipas mula nang iniwan ako ni Cassiel Esquivel—the man who once owned me in every way. A trillionaire tech mogul. Ruthless in business and even more ruthless in love. Akala ko ligtas na ako. Akala ko tapos na ang lahat sa amin. But one day, I woke up in his private jet—kidnapped, disoriented, and furious. “I’m saving your life,” sabi niya, “because you clearly have no idea what kind of danger you’re in.” Pero ano nga ba ang mas delikado? ‘Yong mga taong humahabol sa akin… o ‘yong lalaking minsan ko nang minahal at winasak ang puso ko? Now I’m trapped on a private island with the man who still knows every inch of me. The man I swore I’d never forgive. And maybe... the only man I’ll ever love. Pero para makawala sa kan’yang hawak, wala akong ibang paraan kundi akitin siya… kahit pa ang ibig sabihin nito ay sunugin ang sarili ko sa apoy ng pagnanasa.

Sa loob ng apat na taon, wala nang ibang pinangarap si Elize Monteverde kundi ang maikasal sa kanyang nobyo na si Calvin Sarmiento.

Dahil labis na nasaktan, nagpasya si Elize na makipaghiwalay sa nobyo, magpakalayo-layo at muling makipagkasundo sa kanyang pamilya na nakasamaan niya ng loob mula nang piliin niya ang tawag ng pag-ibig kaysa sa pakiusap ng mga ito.

They will share one drunken night together, prompting Ralph to offer her marriage the next day. “K-kasal? Hindi ginagawang biro ang kasal, Mr. Del Fierro,” ani Elize, puno ng pagtutol ang tinig. “And who told you I’m joking? I’m dead serious. Marry me, Ms. Monteverde.” “P-pero bakit? It’s just a one-night-stand!” Umangat ang gilid ng labi ni Ralph. “I only have one reason, your brother is my enemy. Now, you marry me or you will never ever go back to your family.” Napasinghap si Elize, nanginig. Ano na naman ba iyong pagkakamaling nagawa niya?
