Family Reading Night

Si Vegee Mariano, isang heartbreaker, binayaran siya ni Steffi, eight-hundred thousand. Ipapahinto niya ang kasal ng babae at magpanggap na nobya sa nobyo nitong si Gabriel Quiros. Nagawa niya ang trabaho. Dumaan ang linggo, nagpakamatay si Gabriel Quiros dahil sa matinding depression. Siya ang sinisisi ng pamilya nito. Dahil sa takot umuwi siya ng Bohol. Naging payapa ang buhay ni Vegee sa probinsya. Hanggang isang araw, dumating sa buhay niya si Wilson Montreal. Naging pamilyado si Vegee sa mukha nito. Ito ang lalaking nakasama niyang kumain sa fast-food chain noon sa Manila. Nasa probinsya na ito at may business. Araw-araw itong bumibisita ang lalaki at nagsabi ito ng totoong nararamdaman nito. Hindi manhid si Vegee sa naramdaman ng lalaki at ganoon din siya sa kanyang sarili. Naging mapusok sila sa kanilang naramdaman. Isang gabi, nagyaya si Wilson sa resort nito. Nagpunta kaagad si Vegee ngunit nandoon si Steffi. Pinahiya siya ng babae at doon niya nalaman na si Wilson ay ang kapatid ni Gabriel Quiros. Kaya bang ipaglaban ni Vegee ang kanyang nararamdaman sa lalaki kung naghihiganti lang pala ang lalaki sa pagkamatay ng kapatid nito? Kaya niya bang ipaglaban pa rin ang kanyang pagmamahal sa lalaki kung nalaman niyang may relasyon si Steffi at Wilson? Paano kung nagbunga ang mapusok nilang mga gabi?

Donna Sofia Marino's birthday is held on Valentine's Day. When Francesco Rossi, the Underboss of the Costa family, announces the news on behalf of Don Enzo Costa, everyone in the family is very happy. Well, everyone but me. As expected, Francesco is quick to add, "Someone needs to guard the headquarters. Camilla, you'll be the one in charge of this task." "What the Underboss means is that you don't really carry out any missions in your daily life. Besides, you have tons of spare time anyway. This time, you are to guard the headquarters so that you can deal with any emergencies that might arise." I just smirk sarcastically. The truth is, I'm always the one dealing with the most dangerous matters concerning the Costa family. The transactions of the firearms worth hundreds of millions of dollars are successfully carried out thanks to the plan I've spent countless sleepless nights perfecting. When a crossfire breaks out, I'm always on the frontlines, fighting for the family's glory despite getting injured. While I'm given the title as the executive director, I'm never given any actual power. In truth, my standing is lower than that of a soldato. I'm always the one carrying out the hardest, the most menial, not to mention the most dangerous tasks. But every time credit is given, it's never given to me. I've been enduring this injustice for five long years. This time, I no longer want to keep enduring anymore. With a smile on my face, I stand up from my seat. "Alright then, Underboss Rossi. I shall guard the headquarters. But this will be the last time I ever do this. After this task is completed, I will officially leave the Costa family once and for all."

The night Lyra Hale’s pack burned to the ground, she saw the Alpha responsible with her own eyes. Kael Draven. The ruthless ruler of the Nightfang Pack.

But when fate forces her back into Nightfang territory, she discovers a truth far crueler than death. Kael Draven is her fated mate. Bound to the man she has sworn to kill, Lyra searches for proof that he is the monster she remembers. Yet the deeper she digs into the past, the more the story of that night begins to unravel. Witnesses contradict the massacre. Hidden alliances surface. And a powerful rival Alpha begins moving his forces toward war. Because Silvercrest Pack was never meant to survive. It was destroyed to capture something far more valuable. Lyra. As the last heir to a rare Luna bloodline capable of strengthening and stabilizing entire packs, her power could shift the balance of werewolf rule across the territories. Now hunted by enemies and bound to the Alpha she hates most, Lyra must uncover the truth behind the night that destroyed her life. Because the man she believes to be her greatest enemy may be the only one capable of protecting her from the war that is coming.

On the night my dad kicked me out, I drank too much and slept with my “brother” It was a one night mistake. Yet, he proposed and claimed me as his mate, his luna. When I woke up, my mom's body was cold. The color was drained from her half-opened eyes, and I could see no signs of life. My father told me that she purposely drank poison to kill herself. But that was a lie. My mother would never kill herself; she would never leave me. That night imprisoned me. - “It wasn’t a mistake,” “What are you talking about, Jonathan?” I asked him. “Arina, you are my mate. You were born to be my luna,” he said. His face showed no signs of humor. “I wasn’t born to be anybody’s luna,” I shot back. “Arina, I love you…” he spoke softly, still staring into my eyes. I could feel the wolf in me stirring; something that I had never felt before. She was awakening; the fire that burned so deep inside of me was beginning to flare. “Love?” I heard myself saying. “There’s no such thing as love…” After everything I knew about “love”, what my mother went through when she married my father, love didn’t exist. “Give me a chance to prove you wrong. Marry me.”

Maya is twenty four, independent and very good at keeping people at a comfortable distance. After a night she never planned with a stranger she never expected, she does what she always does — she leaves before morning and tells herself it is finished. It is not finished. The stranger is Caleb Reed, her brother Derek's best friend, and he has just moved back to Chicago. He knew who Maya was from the moment he saw her at the party. He said nothing. Now they are forced into the same orbit — family dinners, group hangouts, shared spaces — pretending a night that changed everything never happened at all. The tension between them builds slowly and then all at once. A secret relationship begins. Feelings neither of them planned for take root. But the closer Maya gets to Caleb the more unsettled her world becomes, because Derek is not handling any of it the way a brother should. His anger runs too deep. His protectiveness feels like something else entirely. When Derek finally explodes and the truth comes out, it reshapes everything. Maya was adopted. Derek has known for years. And the feelings he buried under a lifetime of playing the protective older brother were never entirely brotherly at all. Maya is left to grieve an identity she thought she knew, forgive people she loves for lying, and face a love that was built on a secret. In the end she has to decide who she is without the version of her life she always believed in — and whether Caleb, the man who knew her before she knew the truth, is the one she wants to walk into whatever comes next. She chooses him. Not because it is easy. Because one night was never going to be enough.

My husband, Jared Smith, let me take his spot for a highland vacation. After I departed, I found out that I won a random lottery that I had bought before for $50 million. In order to not delay the redemption of the lottery ticket, I took a red-eye flight back home and wanted to share the news with Jared. Before I went into the house, I heard his smug laugh. “That jacket belongs to Sammy, I’m sure! That dumb witch has been eaten by a bear! I’m so glad that Penny and I sent her on that trip.” It just so happened that the tour group chat sent a video of a member being eaten by a brown bear. My jacket was bloody. However, I was not the one who had been wearing that jacket. It had been his lover, Penny Lee.

Hindi kailanman inakala ni Luhan na ang isang gabing dapat ay simpleng “boy’s night out” lamang ang sisira sa pinaghirapan niyang relasyon at nakatakdang kasal kay Stephanie. Sa isang iglap, nasangkot siya sa isang gabing puno ng alak at kalituhan—at nagising na may nangyari sa pagitan niya at isang babaeng hindi niya kilala. Sa desperasyong linisin ang kanyang pangalan, hinanap niya si Bella, ang kaibigang maaaring makapagpatunay na hindi niya ginusto ang nangyari. Samantala, pasan ni Cattleya ang mabigat na responsibilidad bilang ina kay Kesleigh, isang batang may sakit sa puso. Sa gitna ng problema sa pera, pagkawala ng tirahan, at trabaho, napilitan siyang tanggapin ang alok na maging sekretarya ng isang istriktong boss—si Luhan. Sa una’y puro iringan ang namagitan sa kanila, lalo na nang pagbawalan siyang magdala ng anak sa opisina. Ngunit habang tumatagal, unti-unting nahulog ang kanilang mga puso sa isa’t isa. Naging masalimuot ang lahat nang muling manggulo si Stephanie at unti-unting mabunyag ang koneksyon ng nakaraan. Isang rebelasyon ang yumanig sa mundo ni Cattleya—si Luhan ang lalaking nakatalik niya noon. Sa takot na mawala ito, itinago niya ang katotohanan, hanggang sa isang hindi inaasahang pagtatagpo ang naglantad ng lahat. Dumagdag pa sa kaguluhan ang paglitaw ni Caloy na nag-angking ama ni Kesleigh. Nasubok ang tiwala ni Luhan, ngunit pinatunayan ng DNA test na siya ang tunay na ama. Sa araw ng pag-alis nina Cattleya patungong ibang bansa, pinili ni Luhan na habulin sila—handa mang maghintay, umaasang balang araw ay mabubuo rin ang kanilang pamilya.
