Desire Adalah

Si Elena Madrigal, isang sikat at hinahangaang fashion designer, ay kilala sa kanyang Majesty Designs, mga obra na simbolo ng karangyaan at kapangyarihan. Ngunit sa isang iglap, ang mundong itinayo niya ay gumuho sa kamay ng mga taong minsan niyang minahal at pinagkatiwalaan, ang dating kasintahan niyang si Adrian De Leon, na ninakaw at ipinagbili ang kanyang mga disenyo, ang matalik niyang kaibigan na si Vanessa Alcaraz, na nilamon ng inggit, at ang boss niyang ginamit ang kanyang talento para sa sariling ambisyon. Habang unti-unting nabubura ang kanyang pangalan sa industriyang minsan niyang pinasiklab, isang lalaking matagal nang nakamasid sa kanya mula sa dilim ang lumapit. Si Nathan Arguelles, isang makapangyarihan at misteryosong billionaire. Tahimik ngunit mapanganib. May tinig na kayang bumura ng alinlangan. At sa isang boses na malamig at mabigat sa pangako, bumulong ito: “Be mine and marry me, Elena. I’ll give you back the world they stole from you.” Ang kasunduang ito ay hindi tungkol sa pag-ibig, kundi sa paghihiganti. Para kay Elena, ito ang tanging paraan para muling mabawi ang lahat. Ngunit sa ilalim ng mga halik na nilalabanan niya, sa bawat titig na tila binabalatan ang kanyang kaluluwa, unti-unting nagbabago ang laro. Sa pagitan ng pag-ibig at paghihiganti, kailangang  piliin ni Elena kung mananatili ba siya sa apoy ng paghihiganti o hahayaan niyang ang lalaking dapat sana’y biktima lang… ang maging dahilan ng pagbabagong hindi niya inaasahan. Paghihiganti ang dahilan niya…ngunit ang nakaharap niya, ang lalaking kayang baliktarin ang lahat.

Panic fluttered in her breast, was this the bleak fate she had feared? Had the Lord led her here to test her faith amid such temptation? She prayed harder, her lips moving fervently. The rosary becoming her anchor, each bead a step toward salvation pulling her from the abyss of curiosity that threatened to stir within her.
