Long Way Down Elevator

Realizing how cruel and abusive her husband was, Kris regrets marrying Liam way too late. She planned to escape and tried to take her baby away from its father, Kris started a new life living as her twin sister, Gwen, who died a few years ago.

In a world ruled by power and betrayal, Atticus Escoban, the younger daughter of the influential Escoban family, has always lived away from the dangerous chaos of their criminal empire. For 21 years, she was sheltered, hidden, and protected. But her life changes forever when Alijax Costaloña, the cold and calculating heir of the Costaloña dynasty, violently confronts her father, leaving him gravely wounded. Atticus never expected to be caught in the crossfire of her family’s schemes. Worse, Alijax discovers her existence and shocks everyone by choosing her—over her older sister Anneth—to be his fiancée. The engagement is a sham, a dangerous ploy to secure alliances, but Alijax has plans no one can predict. Determined to protect her family at any cost, Atticus agrees to the engagement, kahit na lumalaban ang puso niya sa ideya. Behind her composed exterior, she plots her way out, refusing to let the Costaloñas dictate her future. But the closer she gets to Alijax, the harder it becomes to distinguish between the man who ruined her family and the one who seems capable of understanding her like no one else. “Do you think you can escape this, Atticus?” he said, his voice dangerously low as he cornered her in the dimly lit study. “You’re mine now. Whether you like it or not.” Her fists clenched, and she met his cold, unreadable gaze with defiance. “You can own the world, Alijax Costaloña, pero ako? Hindi mo ako makukuha.” In a game of power, deception, and forbidden emotions, Atticus must make the ultimate choice. Will she sacrifice her freedom to protect her family, or will she risk it all to claim the life she truly deserves? Love and survival collide in a story where nothing is what it seems, and every decision could be deadly.

It wasn't an easy decision, but he had to do it. Owen Sebastian Gonzales had undergone many dangerous missions but none of them required him to fake his death. He has no choice though, because doing it would be the only way to save Henzel Artemis Flores—his longtime girlfriend. He had to watch her mourn for his “death” before he was sent out of the country with a new identity to do overseas missions for the mean time. Years later, he comes back as Aiden Clifford Williams, the greatest spy of his generation and ready to do missions in his home country again. He gets the shock of his life when the profile of the next target given to him holds the same face with the woman, he had fooled years ago—his ex, Artemis. They’re not allowed to ask about why their target needs to be eliminated, they just have to accept what is given, build a plan and then kill. And so, with a reluctant heart, he goes to clear his mission or he’ll be the one to face the consequence—death, for a failed mission. But what happens when in the middle of many attempts, he discovers something about her? What happens when the girl he thought he knew all those years ago also holds secret as deep as his own? What happens when the target he's supposed to kill turns out to be a mother, most specifically, the mother of his child he never even knew existed?

Lumi-as someone who's being told what to believe and hope in everything as she grows up-reckons that living is a way to comply with and entrust one's entire life to serving superiors on top of the hierarchy. Who will not think of that way anyway? Being harbored in the lands of Castellanos, it is engraved in her mind that she lives to pay her debt of gratitude to the family who sheltered her, who protected her from all the cruelties the outside world has to offer behind those fences. What they're doing is to protect her life and welfare-that's what they told her. So there's no other way to live but be the gullible and obedient yokel of the Castellano clan, because they're doing everything just for her safety. But that's before her life turns upside-down as she discovers a strange note from the attic. "To whoever finds this message, they erased us. This is all that remains. Remember us, please." What does the note want to convey? Is it just one of those mundane trivial stuff found in an attic like the usual when someone decides to clean it? Or is it something connected to her... "safety?" For sure it is for her safety. That's what they always tell her. But what one hears is not always the version of reality. Most of the time, it is the most convenient scheme to twist and bend the truth. That... That's what they will never tell her.
