Kabanata 7 Noli Me Tangere

My dormmate invites me to a college mate's engagement party. I choose an expensive tailor-made gown for the occasion. When I arrive at the hotel, I see several of my former classmates are already there. Everyone looks like they're doing well—they're wearing expensive clothing. Someone is even wearing something from a luxury brand. As soon as I enter the private room, a familiar classmate rolls her eyes at me. "Look at who it is—the woman who was once the most outstanding student in our class. You're dressed so plainly for such an important occasion." Everyone is circled around the classmate who's wearing something from a luxury brand. They ignore me. Only our former class monitor clinks glasses with me and consoles me softly. "It's good enough that you're here. You're dressed plainly, but don't give up. You'll succeed one day." I sip my wine and smile. "My outfit may not be too opulent, but it's an expensive, tailor-made piece. It's 100% handcrafted by a master designer."

Never make a promise you can't keep. Everyone should know that, including Alpha Romero, Eclipse Howl's most beloved future leader. We were just cubs when I saved his life. He promised me then that he would one day make me his Luna and love me unconditionally. And I have waited all these years, even though he has become a magnificent Alpha. Countless horny she-wolves swarm around him, dreaming of being chosen by him next year. Alpha Romero seems to have forgotten me and his promise. But I wait patiently and silently for his twenty-first birthday when he should find his destiny mate. Meanwhile, I'll get rid of all my rivals, so it won't matter if he starts to doubt himself when all his lovers suddenly disappear from the face of the earth. And on the eve of his departure for Alpha training, he makes sweet love to me, the only woman who has any right to be in his arms. And I keep waiting for his return, the quiet girl in the pack that everyone overlooks, the promised Luna of the Eclipse Howl Pack with the Alpha triplets..

On the day of the wedding, Galen Shaw forces me to crack walnuts with my bare hands for his so-called female buddy. My expression goes cold, and I refuse outright. "My hands are for holding a scalpel, not cracking walnuts for her!" He only chuckles and orders someone to hold me down. Then, he glues the walnuts to my palms himself. One by one, he slams them against the ground. "You cheated while studying medicine. Now that you've married me, forget about ever being a doctor again!" I grit my teeth through the pain. My fingers are aching, but I try to explain. "I went abroad to study medicine for you!" His so-called female buddy sneers in a shrill voice. "All that talk about the Shaw family's hereditary disease is nonsense! Galen has been perfectly healthy for over 20 years. Don't tell me you just want another excuse to cozy up with your precious senior?" The moment those words leave her lips, the faint thought of having someone bandage my hand disappears. A shadow crosses Galen's face. "Looks like you haven't learned your lesson!" He throws me into the basement and locks me there for three days. By the time I crawl out, my hands are completely ruined. Later, when Galen's hereditary disease finally surfaces, the doctor tries to comfort him. "This disease may be terminal, but there is still a way. Dr. Robinson has just returned from overseas. She's the only one in the world who can perform this surgery. "I hear that she's your wife."

Si Seraphina Velarde—isang masipag, maganda, at palaban sa buhay ay isang babaeng nahulog sa bawal na pag-ibig. Isa siyang kabit—isang relasyong lihim, isang pagmamahalang itinatago. Sa kabila ng init at atensyong natatanggap niya, nananatiling may kulang… sapagkat hanggang kailan siya magiging pangalawa? Hanggang kailan siya mamahalin sa dilim? Dahil kahit ilang ulit pa siyang angkinin sa mga gabing punong-puno ng pagnanasa, may isang alaala pa rin siyang hindi matakasan, isang gabing nangyari walong buwan na ang nakalipas. Isang one-night stand na punong-puno ng damdamin, init, at koneksyon. Hindi niya matandaan ang mukha ng lalaki, pero hindi niya malilimutan ang haplos. Ang gabing iyon ang nagbukas sa kanya sa tunay na sarap—ang klase ng sensasyong hindi niya muling naranasan. At ang lalaking iyon ay si Pierce Damien Saveedra—isang makapangyarihan, misteryoso, at hindi niya inaakalang muling papasok sa buhay niya. Sa bawat pagtatama ng kanilang mga mata, sa bawat paglapit, dama ni Seraphina na siya ang lalaking iyon—ang unang dumampi sa kanya, ang lalaking hindi lang nagpagising sa kanyang katawan kundi sa kanyang pagkatao. Si Pierce ang lalaking nagparamdam sa kanya ng pagmamahal na hindi palihim. Sa mga titig at haplos niya, ramdam ni Seraphina na hindi siya kailanman magiging pangalawa. Naramdaman nyang karapat-dapat din siyang mahalin ng buo, walang kahati, at walang limitasyon. Sa piling ni Pierce, unti-unti niyang natutuklasan kung ano ang ibig sabihin ng pagmamahal na totoo—yung hindi kailangang itago, hindi kailangang ipaglaban sa dilim… kundi isang pagmamahal na malaya, malinaw, at buong-buo.
