Elainna Grayson

Alina Lauraine Santiago is finally beginning a new chapter—college life in the city, away from the shadows of her painful past. But freedom doesn’t erase trauma, and the emotional scars of her father’s abuse and her family’s struggles still cling tightly. Determined to make it on her own, Alina juggles part-time jobs and photography gigs to support herself and help her siblings. Then she meets Harold—charming, kind, and seemingly perfect. But behind his smile lies a truth that leaves Alina shaken and betrayed. After a devastating encounter, she runs from everything. It’s only through the love of her best friends that she finds the strength to return to university and face the pieces of her broken life. That’s when Grayson enters the picture. They’ve crossed paths before, but never like this. A simple deal brings them together, and what starts as casual quickly turns into something more. But when Alina discovers she’s pregnant, fear and uncertainty force her to make an impossible decision: leave Grayson behind without telling him the truth. Years later, fate brings them back together—and Grayson still doesn’t know he’s a father. As they reconnect and old feelings resurface, Alina must confront the secret she’s kept for so long. When Grayson finally learns the truth, their fragile reunion is put to the ultimate test. Just as they begin to rebuild, a new threat rises from the past—one that could destroy everything they’ve fought to protect. Can love be made from pain and second chances? Or are some wounds too deep to ever truly heal?

Nang dahil sa isang kasunduan, nagawang sumang-ayon ng dalagang si Marlita sa isang planong inaalok ng kaniyang nakababatang kaibigan. Kapalit ng perang pampagamot sa kaniyang lolang may kidney failure, kailangang paibigin at akitin ni Marlita ang masungit na bilyonaryong si Grayson Ryker. Ang unang hakbang sa kanilang plano ay liligawan niya at aakitin si Grayson. Kapag napa-ibig na niya ito, saka niya ito iiwan—kagaya ng napag-usapang plano. Subalit, ang pagsang-ayon ni Marlita sa planong panliligaw kay Grayson ay may kapalit—isang gabing iaalay niya ang kaniyang sarili upang sumang-ayon si Grayson sa nais niyang panliligaw. Makakaya kaya ni Marlita na tanggapin ang alok na ito para maisakatuparan ang kaniyang balak? O baka sa gagawing hakbang ng dalaga, dadalhin niya ang magiging bunga ng kanilang pagtatalik? Makabubuo kaya ng pag-ibig sa likod ng masamang balak ni Marlita? O baka huli na upang ito ay mapagtanto—dahil ang lalaking nililigawan niya pala ay may asawa na?
