Akala ko, tapos na ang kwento ko nung mawala ang asawa ko... focused lang ako sa business, sa mafia empire, at sa pagpapalaki kay Charles. Seryoso, low maintenance ang buhay ko. Until she crashed into my limousine... literal. Sino ba naman ang hindi mada-dazzle kay Victoria "Vee" Santos?

Kaya nung nagka-utang siya ng ₱87 million dahil sa accident, I gave her an ultimatum: be my personal maid for one year. Worst. Decision. Ever. Sunog ang kanin, basag ang antiques, at kung makasagot sa akin, wagas! She’s chaotic, and she claims she hates men. Pero nung bigla siyang tinawag ng anak kong si Charles na “Mama”... everything flipped. Ngayon, ang cold kong mansion, unti-unting umiinit. I find myself smiling at her antics, wanting to protect her vulnerabilities, and craving her touch. She's supposed to pay a debt, pero bakit parang ako ang unti-unting nauubusan ng kontrol? Bago pa man sumalakay ang mga kaaway ko, alam ko na ang totoong plot twist... I’m hopelessly falling for my wrong maid.

"Oral? Rough nights? That's what I've become-the plaything of a man whose name echoes across Asia. We've done things in places where we could have been caught, places where his men could see us, and yet we didn't care. The only thing that mattered was quenching the fire raging inside our bodies. Free? No. Nothing is free anymore. Every desire, every twisted fantasy he wants to play out on me comes with a price-and he pays it without hesitation. Even when it's degrading, even when it crosses boundaries I once thought I had, I take it. No questions asked. But here's what keeps me awake at night: is this all I'll ever be? Are we bound to this cycle, trapped in this dangerous game forever?"

"Vee bumangon ka muna! Ipapakilala ko sayo iyong bago mong bodyguard." Kahit inaantok pa ay bumangon ako at bagot na tinignan si Daddy. "What? Bodyguard na naman! Ayoko na nga ng ganyan eh! Nakakasawa na--" napahinto ako sa pagsasalita ng may lalaking pumasok sa kwarto ko. "Sino siya?" "Vee meet your new bodyguard, James Villianuevva." "Ito? New bodyguard ko? Seryoso ka dad?" "Yes, and I am sure magugustuhan mo siya. Magkakasundo kayo sa mga bagay-bagay, lalo na kung mag sho-shopping ka at pagdating sa mga makeup--" "Babae lang ang mahilig mag shopping at mag makeup dad." Saad ko at napatampal sa noo ko. "I'm gay." Muntik ng malaglag iyong panga ko sa sinabi niya.

"How much do you want?" Pagkakuwa'y saad ko. Kay bilis niyang napalingon sa akin muli ay masama niya akong tinignan. "Hindi ako mukhang pera!" I scoffed again. "Hindi nga ba?

“W-Why are you here? I already did what you wanted, didn’t I? I thought we had a deal?” Nina’s voice trembled as she blinked in disbelief. “I don’t negotiate, darling. You don’t get to decide what I do to you.” Hades smirked, his tone laced with amusement at her confusion and fear. “I’m not playing games with you, Hades! Please, just leave my house!” “Too bad. I can’t.” His smile darkened. “Now, are you going to be a good girl, or keep pretending to be feisty?” “Get out! Now!” Nina tried to slam the door, but Hades shoved it open, forcing his way inside. “No! Let me go! You’re hurting me!” He dragged her into the living room as she struggled to free herself from his tight grip. Her wrists burned under his hold. Then, with brutal force, he threw her onto the couch—hard enough that she stumbled and lost her balance. Hades stepped closer, his shadow swallowing the light between them. “Now… strip,” he said darkly. “I'm going to fuck you till you can't walk” Author’s Note: My first attempt at bringing a story to life.

Ngunit paano kung ang kontratang nagbuklod sa kanila ay siya ring maging dahilan para magkalayo sila?
