I M Number Four

Sa isang mundong pinaghaharian ng yaman at kapangyarihan, ipinanganak si Elena Cruz sa kahirapan. Maganda siya—mala-porselanang kutis, brown ang mata, at may alindog na kahit sa simpleng ayos ay nakakakuha ng pansin. Pero sa likod ng ganda, puno ng sugat ang kanyang buhay—ama niyang lulong sa sugal at inang kasambahay sa pamilya ng mga Monteverde, isa sa pinakamayamang angkan sa bansa. Isang gabi, nagbago ang lahat. Sa desperasyon at gutom, nagnakaw ang kanyang ama mula sa mansion ng mga Monteverde—isang kasalanang nahuli sa CCTV. At nang mabunyag ito, nasira hindi lang ang tiwala, kundi pati ang buhay nilang mag-ina. Sa gitna ng kahihiyan, pagkakautang, at apoy na sumunog sa kanilang tahanan, namatay ang kanyang ina sa konsensya at pangamba, habang nagtatago naman ang ama. Walang ibang natira kay Elena kundi ang pangalang minantsahan ng kasalanan. Hanggang sa isang gabi, muling tumagpo ang landas nila ni Lance Monteverde—ang bilyonaryong CEO na anak ng among pinagsilbihan ng kanyang ina. Malamig, makapangyarihan, at walang pakialam sa pag-ibig. Ngunit sa kabila ng lahat, tila may kakaibang puwersang nagtulak sa kanya na iligtas si Elena mula sa kamay ng mga mapang-abusong nanghihingi ng utang. Kapalit ng kaligtasan, isang alok ang binitawan ni Lance: “Babayaran ko ang lahat ng utang mo, Elena. Pero may kapalit... ikaw.” Sa pagitan ng utang, galit, at pag-ibig na unti-unting tumutubo sa gitna ng poot—mapipilitan si Elena na maging asawa ng lalaking kinaiinisan at kinatatakutan niya… ang lalaking unti-unti ring matututo kung ano ang tunay na halaga ng pag-ibig at pagkatao. Ngunit sa mundo ng mga Monteverde, walang libre. At sa dulo ng bawat pangako, may kapalit na kalayaan.

To temper my attitude, Frederick Burke throws me into the mountains. What he doesn't know is that this mountain lies deep within a high-radiation zone. Five months later, he finally shows up with a group of people to bring me back. However, my body is already starting to rot from the radiation. "Anastasia, if you hadn't pushed Colette down the stairs, I wouldn't have punished you like this. I wouldn't have left you to rot on this godforsaken mountain. Do you admit your mistake now?" I kneel on the ground and prostrate myself before Colette Reeves. Frederick freezes and instinctively reaches out to help me up. "Alright, there's no need for this…" I say nothing. I just quietly watch as he grabs my arm. Unbeknownst to him, my body is already soaked in radiation after months in this mountain. Anyone who touches me will slowly begin to rot, too...

On the day of Winter Hunt, Grayson Ashcroft, the future Alpha of the pack, successfully hunts down a white deer, which is very rare to be seen in the woods. He's about to give the prize to me when Raven Black, a she-wolf who has just joined the Northwind pack, speaks up. She points at the deer while saying, "Grayson, you promised that you'd give me a present. Is it okay if I ask for that present to be this deer?" I am Grayson's mate. Before the hunt, Grayson has vowed to the Moon Goddess that he'll give me the first prey he has hunted. All the wolves await the humiliating moment when Raven's request will get turned down. Surprisingly, Grayson gives her the white deer instead. "Since you like the deer that much, you can have it. Winters in the north can be very harsh and cold. I'll have someone make the deer's pelt into a cloak that you can wear." All the wolves in the pack turn to look at me at that moment. Feeling rather conflicted, Grayson says to me, "Ella, I'll give you something else that's better next time. Just let Raven have the white deer today, okay?" It has been less than half a year since Raven joined the Northwind pack. But during those months, Grayson has repeatedly asked me to give away a few things so far. This includes a silver ring that has his baby fang embedded in it, the spot next to him during the Full Moon Assembly, and the bear paw that he has severed during his first solo hunt. As I gaze at Grayson, who expects me to obey him as always, I can only smile in a self-derogatory manner. Since he wants me to let Raven have her way all the time, I might as well give this mate of mine to her at this point. Yes, I don't want him anymore.

She gave him her youth, her loyalty, her heart……only to be betrayed in the cruelest way. Adrian paraded his mistress and their daughter before the world while Serena, carrying his child, was left broken and forgotten. Even her own son was turned against her, calling another woman “Mommy” as if she never existed. Years later, the woman they all discarded returns. No longer weak, Serena is now the dazzling force behind a global empire. Her ex-husband burns with obsession, the mistress grows desperate to destroy her, and the child she lost to lies begins to see the truth. “Why now?” Adrian demands, eyes dark with desire. Serena’s gaze is cold, her smile sharper than glass. “Because this time, I belong to no one… not even you.” Her rise will be their ruin — and her revenge will be unforgettable.

After getting into an accident, I pretend to be an amnesiac to pull a prank on my husband and son. "Who are you guys?" I ask. A hint of delight flickers in my son's eyes. He pulls a woman waiting outside the hospital ward inside and says, "My parents and I came to visit you, ma'am." My husband watches all of this happen without saying a word. He doesn't correct our son.
