Grateful For Everything

I was raised to believe that love meant endurance. That if I loved him enough, I could survive anything. For seven years, I was stationed at the border—alone, bleeding, freezing, nearly dying more times than I can count. Every transfer request I submitted was denied. Every time I asked why, I was told the same thing: the family needed me. The alliance came first. Others needed protection more than I did. What I didn’t know was this— Every sacrifice I made was approved by the man who claimed to love me. Adrian Holt, the Don who raised me, protected me, promised I would be his Donna one day… He was the one signing my name away year after year. He chose widows. He chose alliances. He chose power. And he chose for me—without ever asking. Because he was certain of one thing: That no matter what he did, I would never leave him. He believed love meant I would understand. That loyalty meant silence. That I would forgive anything—as long as he said he loved me. So when I finally walked away, I didn’t argue. I didn’t beg. I disappeared. And that was the moment his world collapsed. Now he’s tearing through cities, alliances, and his own sanity trying to find me— Too late realizing that love is not sacrifice when only one person bleeds. This is not a story about redemption. It’s a story about what happens after you lose the woman who endured everything… And finally chose herself.

She was ruining everything we had just to protect a single secret, she didn't trust me enough for it. "It's better this way" she said, but was it really?

“A marriage of convenience… turned into a love worth fighting for.” Isang kasal na hindi pinili, kundi ipinilit ng kapalaran. Para kay Vernice, ang kasal ay isang bagay na dapat nagmumula sa pagmamahal at hindi sa kasunduan. Ngunit biglang nagbago ang lahat nang mapilitan siyang pumayag sa isang arranged marriage—at ang lalaking nakatakda niyang pakasalan ay walang iba kundi si Caius, isang makapangyarihang negosyante na kilala sa kanyang malamig na ugali at walang interes sa pag-ibig. Sa simula, parang isang bangungot ang pagsasama nila. Ang buhay ng isang simpleng babae ay biglang naipit sa mundo ng karangyaan, intriga, at matinding pressure na dala ng pagiging asawa ng isang kilalang billionaire. Sa kanilang pagsasama, tila dalawang magkaibang mundo ang pinilit na pinagtatagpo—isang pusong naghahanap ng pagmamahal at isang pusong sanay nang magtago sa likod ng yaman at kapangyarihan. Ngunit habang lumilipas ang mga araw, may mga simpleng bagay na unti-unting nagbabago. Ang mga tingin na dati ay malamig, naging mainit. Ang mga usapan na dati ay pormal at walang saysay, nagiging puno ng lambing at tawa. At ang kasal na dati’y walang emosyon, nagiging isang tahanan ng pag-ibig na hindi nila inasahan. Subalit hindi mawawala ang mga pagsubok—mga taong tututol, intriga ng lipunan, at takot na baka ang lahat ng ito ay pansamantala lamang. Ngunit sa kabila ng lahat, matutuklasan nilang hindi ang kasunduan ang magtatali sa kanila, kundi ang pusong natutong magmahal ng totoo. Isang kwento ng dalawang taong hindi pinili ang isa’t isa, pero pinili ng tadhana. Sa huli, mapapatunayan nilang minsan, ang pagmamahal ay dumarating sa pinaka–hindi inaasahang paraan.
