Kwento Ng Ibong Adarna Grade 7

She's always been described as "her" shadow. The shadow of a beautiful, intelligent sister that she could never beat. Her whole life, she has tried her best to meet up to her sisters standards but it has never been the same. She has never been able to shine by herself without being compared to Willow. For 20 years now, she's been the shadow and never once has she realised that she was equally as beautiful and intelligent. Today was the day, the day that it would be all about her, well that's what she thought initially. It was her 20th birthday party where she will be revealed as her fathers heir of the company after being abroad for a year studying 24/7 to be able to live up to her fathers standards. Today was her day being in the spotlight after disappearing from it for 2 years. In this year, she has changed drastically. So much that her parents didn't recognise her when she stepped out of her fathers private jet. So much that her old high school bullies wouldn't even have recognised her. She was finally back and stronger than ever. Neveah was back to show everyone that she is not the same girl as she was 2 years ago. Alec McKinley, the typical playboy of the century. Having flings left, right and centre but discarding them after a night with their bodies. He was notorious for this but it didn't stop females from dropping their skin tight dresses to state to the world that they've has a night with the heir to the McKinley Enterprise. These naïve females all through that they would be the one to change him. To be able to tame the beast in bed. However, they leave empty handed, without their clothes but just a robe as always.

Born an Omega, Sorrell came into the world with very few prospects in life but refused to let those stand in her way. For as long as she could remember she has dreamed of being a pack warrior, wanting to fight for her pack and prove that Omegas are more than just servants. Determined to not let anything stop her, she holds firm despite catching the eye of the new Alpha. She can't understand why the obnoxiously good-looking Alpha has taken such an interest in her, but it all makes sense when on her 18th birthday she learns they have been fated. Sorrell was ready to become a pack warrior but becoming a Luna to a pack who definitely don't want her is not something she was ready to sign up for. Will she turn her back on fate, or can Alpha Alden convince her to take her rightful place as his Luna? Bite-Size Luna is a prequel novella to A Queen Among Alphas, book 1 in the Queen Among series.

Panimula: Ngunit ang lahat ay nagbago nang isang araw, napilitan siyang magtungo sa police station dahil nasangkot ang kanyang kapatid sa isang gulo sa bar. Doon, isang babaeng pulis ang umagaw ng kanyang atensyon. S'ya si Kurt John McCain, isang multi-billionaire na business tycoon, ay kilala hindi lang sa kanyang yaman kundi pati sa kanyang nakamamanghang hitsura—matangkad, makisig, at ang kanyang ngiti ay sapat na para mawalan ng ulirat ang sinumang babae. Ngunit para sa kanya, ang mga babae ay walang iba kundi panandaliang libangan. Walang puwang ang seryosong relasyon sa kanyang abala at marangyang buhay. Para sa kanya, ang mga ito ay parang laro lamang—walang emosyon, walang komplikasyon. Ang lahat ay laro lamang. Si SPO 3 -Althea Perez, isang dedikadong policewoman, ay hindi lang mahusay sa kanyang tungkulin kundi kilala rin sa kanyang kagandahan, kaseksihan, at kabutihang-loob.

Bagamat maamo ang kanyang hitsura, huwag kang magkakamali—hindi siya aatras sa sinumang nagtatangkang umabuso sa kanyang prinsipyo. Isang araw, nasapak niya ang isang mayabang na lalaki na nagdulot ng kanyang pagkawala ng malay. Ang mayabang na lalaki? Walang iba kundi si Kurt.

Abangan ang kwento ng dalawang magkaibang katauhan na pinagbuklod ng kapalaran.

Auditor sa umaga. Asawa sa gabi. Kalaban sa katotohanan. Kapag puso, pamilya, at katarungan ang nagbanggaan—sino ang handa mong ipaglaban? Si Maria Ysabel Cruz ay isang ordinaryo pero masipag na auditor na napilitang akuin ang responsibilidad nang mamatay ang ina at bumagsak ang kalusugan ng kanyang ama. Sa desperasyon, nagkubli siya sa pangalang Maya Santos at pumasok sa isang contract marriage kay Renzo Alcantara—ang guwapo at makapangyarihang tagapagmana ng pinakamalaking construction empire sa bansa. Sa simula, naging perpekto ang lahat: natugunan ang gastusin ng kanyang pamilya, unti-unti siyang nahulog kay Renzo, at naranasan ang isang uri ng pag-ibig na akala niya ay para lang sa mayayaman. Ngunit gumuho ang ilusyon nang ma-assign siya bilang auditor sa mismong kumpanya ng mga Alcantara. Sa araw, siya ang matapang na Maria Ysabel na nag-iimbestiga sa mga katiwalian. Sa gabi, siya ang mapagmahal na Maya, asawa ni Renzo. Dalawang katauhan, iisang puso—at isang mapanganib na lihim. Hanggang sa mabunyag ang masakit na katotohanan: ang pamilya ni Renzo ang nasa likod ng ghost projects na kumitil ng maraming buhay at sa trahedyang pumatay sa kanyang ina. Ngayon, kailangan niyang pumili: Ipaglaban ang pamilya at katarungan para sa bayan… o ipagtanggol ang lalaking minahal niya? At si Renzo, may sarili ring laban: Patatawarin ba niya ang babaeng ilang ulit na nanloko sa kanya? O patuloy pa rin ba niyang mamahalin—Maya man siya o Maria Ysabel—kahit kapalit ay ang pamilyang kailanma’y hindi niya tinalikuran? Isang kwento ng pag-ibig, pagtataksil, at ang tanong na walang kasiguraduhan: Hanggang saan ang kaya mong isakripisyo para sa pag-ibig at katotohanan?

Hinahabol ng mga nilalang na hindi niya akalaing nabubuhay pala sa mundo. Mga halimaw na nagkukubli sa kadiliman.
