EXCERPT: Students were running for their lives, vampires were hunting down their preys, friends betrayed friends by leaving them behind and saving their own lives first and soon, they all spread across the streets, causing chaos and killing anyone that they came across. There was carnage everywhere and from where Amber and the others stood, horror filled their eyes and Amber knew just what was happening. It was like the story that Hazel had told her back at the bookshop. The Chosen One didn't make a sacrifice. She wanted revenge and these were the army she was after. The last war was not really the last after all. Now, the fate of mortality lies in her hand. She was the Chosen One, but she does not remember any of that, even though she has a feeling that she knew these people. *** This is a story of Amber Willow, a seventeen year old girl living in a small City called Cinder. Though, her life doesn't always go according to the way it should, she believed she was just as normal as the rest of the kid out there but what she didn't realize was that, she was the One sent to bring an end to the existence of the wild creatures and because of that, other covens wanted her dead. The day she remembers who she really is, is the day the war would continue from where she last ended it and this time, she would not make the same mistake she made the last time. Her revenge would begin and it would start from the ones who took away the people dear to her. One by one, she would haunt them down and put an end to their immortality. ---Kyra Blackburn

"She's fierce, violent, and smart. That's why no one should ever underestimate her capabilities." Angela has been running away from the ghost in her past. But who would have expected that they will meet at different time with different goals in mind? Will she be able to finish her goal? Or she will be a failure just like what her parents said?

They called her life’s work trash. Then they fired her from her job. Now, she’ll rewrite the rules of the afterlife itself. Elara Vance, after being fired from her dream job, comes home to find her boyfriend and her sister in a compromising position on her sofa. Fleeing the scene, she runs into traffic and wakes up…not dead, but conscripted. The rules of the Survival Game are simple: as a newly deceased soul, you must provide entertainment, “fancy” deaths for a cosmic audience. The penalty for refusal is true, final obliteration. Elara’s only hope is Cipher, a mysterious man who knows the Game better than anyone. He is also “Aethon”—the revolutionary AI she personally coded and deleted. The creation she abandoned is now her only guide. To survive, this anxiety-ridden horror writer must team up with her greatest regret. To win, they must do more than beat the system. They must tear it down and write a new one.

Sinabi ni Mariya sa kaniyang sarili na hindi siya gagaya sa kaniyang ina. Na hindi siya papasok sa bar para maging bayaran o parausan. Ayaw niyang matulad sa ina niya na naanakan lang nang naanakan at hindi na pinanagutan. Ang hindi napapansin ni Mariya ay naging mas masahol pa siya sa kaniyang ina. Natuto siyang magnakaw para lang maibigay ang pangangailangan ng pamilya niya. Natuto siyang magpagamit sa boss niya kapalit ng malaking pera at ang mas masahol pa sa lahat, naging kabit siya ng boss niya kahit alam niyang may asawa ito na may sakit. Minahal niya si John sa kabila ng ginagamit lang siya nito tuwing kailangan nito ng parausan. Naniwala siya sa pangako ni John na iiwanan nito ang asawa para sa kaniya. Halos mabaliw si Mariya mula sa matinding pagmamahal niya kay John na umabot pa sa puntong pinilit niyang paghiwalayin ang mag-asawa para lang makaganti siya. Hanggang kailan kaya magkakasala si Mariya? kailan niya maiisip na itama ang mga mali? Ipaglalaban niya pa rin ba si John kahit na sa una pa lang ay alam niya na kung kanino ito pagmamay-ari? Hanggang saan siya dadalhin ng makasalanan niyang puso? SINNER

Pagmamahal na walang iwanan, pagmamahal kung saan nagsumpaang hindi ka pababayaan, marami mang pagsubok ang dumaan, mananatiling ikaw ang laman, mananatiling ikaw ang sinisigaw at tanging sayo lamang may pagtingin ang pusong simula palang ay pag-aari mo na at hindi nino man. ‘Pinakawalan na kita noon, hinding-hindi ko na hahayaang maulit pa ‘yun.’
