“Lila,” I began softly, choosing my words. “About last night...” She stood abruptly, cutting me off. “Don’t. There’s nothing to apologize for. It happened.” I frowned, trying to gauge her. “So, what are you saying?” She crossed her arms, steadying herself. “I’m saying I have a deal for you.” “A deal?” “We keep seeing each other—secretly. No one has to know. No strings attached.” I stared at her, wondering if she was serious. But from the look in her eyes, I knew she was. ********** Lila Frost, a brilliant bio-genetics student and the fiercely protected sister of Alpha King Ronan, returns to Silver Lake for a quiet summer focused on her research.

After Calvin’s older brother passed away, he devoted himself to taking care of his brother’s wife and daughter. He justified it by saying that ‘family should look out for each other.’ To others, the three of them looked just like a close, happy family. When my mother was on her deathbed, he was busy comforting his sister-in-law, who had been brought to tears by her own son. I knelt on the floor, crying and begging him, “My mom is dying. Please, just visit her one last time, I am begging you!” However, Calvin’s voice was ice-cold as he snapped back, “Tell your mom to die later! I am busy!” I waited for two whole hours, and in the end, my mother never got to see her son-in-law one last time. Broken and exhausted, I finally asked for a divorce. “Why don’t the three of you just stay together and enjoy your happy little family.”

Since she was sixteen, Sydney Rae Salvador has been in love with Clyren Zeye Matteo. But that's not how he ever saw her. He was constantly present but never hers, he was her older brother's best friend. Sydney quietly loving him, while he loved other girls. Then everything changed one night. She became pregnant even though she had no idea what it meant to him. She kept her pregnancy a secret. She wished to avoid making him feel obliged to stay. She also became irrationally angry with him. However, she secretly missed him when he wasn't present. She was simply seeking things, it turned out, and she wanted Clyren close to her most of the time. Months later, her brother discovered that she was pregnant. He got angry with Clyren and confronted him but Clyren already knew. He had been waiting for Sydney to tell him herself. After that, Clyren took care of her. He was always there. Then one day, when she was six months pregnant, she asked him to buy her a mangosteen that she was craving. He went out, but he never came back. She gave birth alone. For years, there was no sign of him. Four years later, her twins were already toddlers. At the airport, her son had an accident. At that exact moment, she ran into Clyren again. He was checking on her son’s head, which was covered in blood. She begged him to help their son, so they rushed to the hospital. What happened to Clyren? Do second chances really exist?

I was in the middle of hosting an important international meeting when my younger brother’s sudden call interrupted me. On the other end, his voice was low and trembling. "Matt, someone took my spot for the exchange student program." I rushed to his school right away, only to find him cornered in an office, his eyes slightly red. A cocky-looking boy was pointing at Tim’s nose, his face full of arrogance. "You want to compete with me? I’m the heir of the Smiths in Ardenford. My mom just donated an entire lab building to the school! Who do you think you are?" Even the teacher nearby spoke up in support of him. "Timothy, the Smiths are one of our school’s major benefactors. You’d better be sensible and not cause any trouble." I was about to step forward and confront them when those words—the Smiths in Ardenford—made me stop cold. The Smiths in Ardenford? Since when did my mom have a third son besides me and my brother, Timothy? I immediately dialed her number, a cold laugh slipping from my lips. "Mom, when did you have another son behind Dad’s back?"

"Say what you must but it is a beautiful day to die" "Can you give me my father's car keys before you do that?!" I yelled at her "I can hear the river below the bridge calling my name, telling me it was time to come home. It is almost music to my ears" "I don't care! Just give me the car keys!" I yelled at her.

Sa loob ng limang taon, buong pusong minahal ni Bettina si Elijah. Ngunit sa mismong araw ng kasal nila ay tinalikuran siya nito dahil kay Agatha—ang babaeng ilang beses nang nagtangkang magpakamatay para makuha ang atensyon ng lalaki. Saka lamang napagtanto ni Bettina na kahit gaano pa kalalim ang ibigay niyang pagmamahal ay hindi siya pipiliin ni Elijah. Kaya nilisan niya ang lahat at nagpasya na magsimula ng bagong buhay. Pero hindi niya inaasahan na sa isang gabi ng kalasingan, aksidente niyang naka-one-night stand ang isang bilyonaryong lalaki at mortal na kaaway ng kapatid niya—si Evander Hudson! Kinabukasan, dahan-dahang nagtangkang tumakas si Bettina ngunit bigo siya nang biglang may humawak sa kanyang paa at hinila pabalik. “After everything you did to me last night, you’re really going to run away?” sabay turo sa marka sa leeg niya. “Ganyan mo ako hinalikan… and you're not even going to explain what we are now?” Kilala si Evander na malamig at walang interest sa mga babae. Pero walang nakakaalam na matagal na niyang minamasdan nang palihim si Bettina. Simula nang mapunta ito sa kanyang bisig, hindi na niya ito pinakawalan pa. Naglabas pa siya ng sampung bilyong piso para bilhin ang isang private island resort sa Palawan para kay Bettina. “If you don’t want to stay in Manila, then let’s turn this place into a paradise. Just for you, Tina.” “Akala ko Evan hindi ka interesado sa babae?” “I’m not interested in anyone else. But you… you’re the exception.” Pero paano kung mahulog ang puso niya kay Evander? Ano na lang ang sasabihin ni Bettina sa kuya niya?

I got hurt and lost consciousness on the battlefield. When I woke up after a three-day coma, I suddenly wanted to pull a prank on my mate. “Who are you?” When I saw my mate freeze, I wanted to laugh, but he suddenly saluted. “Miss Selena, I’m your comrade, Galeis.” He then pointed at his brother. “He’s Leonore, your mate.” I froze. Leonore stepped forward. “Yes, I’m your mate.” I forced out a smile. “Take me home, then.”
