A woman who will never lower her guard down to anyone. Halos perpekto na ang kanyang buhay. Ngunit sa kasamaang palad, magbabago ang kanyang landas. Upang mapanatili ang negosyo ng kanilang pamilya, nagtakda ang kanyang mga magulang na ipakasal siya sa anak na tagapagmana ng isa sa pinakamaipluwensyang negosyante sa bansa. Dean Larry Valerco, a goody-two-shoes introvert man. Siya ay isang taong may matigas na puso. Mas gustong manatili sa bahay kaysa gumala at mag-party kung saan-saan. But as the heir of their family, he needs to remain his communicating and socializing with people. Palagi siyang nakabuntot sa kanyang mga magulang, kaya hindi na siya nag-abala na ipasok siya ng kanyang mga magulang sa isang political marriage. An extrovert vs an introvert. Isa nga bang delubyo ang pagtatagpo ng dalawa?

It's all just a game. Iyon ang itinatak ni Aleira Estrella sa isipan. She was born with a silver spoon on her mouth and everything was easy to get. Kung may isang bagay man na hindi niya kayang tibagin, it's her mother's words. She's the woman she respects the most and she wouldn't dare disobey her. Kaya nang sabihin nitong magpapakasal siya sa isang lalaking hindi kilala, she was willing to oblige. After all, the past relationships she had were nothing but games. For her, love is nothing but an extinct sentiment and marriage for convenience is practical. But then... how could someone so sure of her plans doubt her principles? Is it really worth it? To follow the plan and give up all of her? To abide her family and give up everything? To give up something she unconsciously learned to love?

I thought the worst part of my life was over when Lucas Mattfield divorced me and dissolved our bond. I thought I'd be free. I was wrong. After enduring two years of abuse at the hands of the future Alpha of Red Ridge, I’m left bruised and broken. Betrayed by my mate, my pack, my best friend, and even my own father, I’m nothing more than a discarded Omega, sold to yet another man. A rogue Alpha in a town I’ve never heard of - Haven's Crest. Alpha Johnathan Banks — tall, commanding, and impossibly handsome — offers me a new life and the chance to be his Luna. With his dark eyes and rugged charm, he’s as dangerous as he is captivating. The town is breathtaking, the people are friendly, and everything seems perfect. But something dark and dangerous lurks beneath the surface, and I don't know who I can trust anymore.

After the heated kiss, Sebastian's expression softened, his eyes still burning with desire. "I wasn't avoiding you," he whispered, his voice laced with sincerity. "I just want you to focus on your studies, not me all the time. You're a topper, baby," he said, a hint of pride in his tone. "And if you don't score well, I'll think it's because of me." His gaze locked onto hers, intense and serious. "In college, we should remain like professors and students—professional and detached. But outside..." His voice dropped to a husky whisper. "You can consider me your boyfriend, husband, friend... Daddy." **** "Adeline!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with emotion. But as he wrapped his arms around her, she distanced herself, her body language screaming rejection. "Sebastian, don't," Adeline warned. "Why didn't you answer my calls? I've been worried sick, imagining the worst, and feeling helpless. It's been three agonizing days since I last saw you, and I've been unable to focus on anything." Adeline remained silent, "What's wrong, Adeline? You're scaring me," he pleaded. "I'm pregnant," she stated. Sebastian's face lit up with joy, his eyes shining with excitement. "Oh, Adeline! We're going to be parents!" he exclaimed. But his happiness was short-lived, as Adeline's next words shattered his dreams. "I'm going to abort this child," Adeline declared. Sebastian's world crumbled around him, his heart shattering into a million pieces. "But before I do, I wanted to tell you," Adeline continued. "That's why I'm here—to end this chapter of our lives and move on." Adeline's voice dripped with finality. "Everything between us ends with this child," she declared.

She died early and went to heaven. Her first wish was to live more in one place, her second wish was to fall in love and her third wish was to die a natural death.

But she is stubborn to fulfil her wishes her own way...will she be able to go against the orders of the almighty? ................................................................................................. "Who are you?", I asked. "How can you be so dumb", he replied. "Nice name but a bit long for my liking", that was me. And all I got was an angry look. "What! You could have just answered my question without any stupid remarks.", I have no idea from where this audacity came in me. His eyes were red and at that moment I knew he is from some higher order family who have no habit of listening to comebacks. "It's not tough to see how dumb you are to treat the animal before even looking for the rider.", he said with so much arrogance that even the horse made a sound which clearly meant 'I WANT TO PUNCH HIM'. "If a rider doesn't know how to ride without getting hurt, I guess it's more worth saving the horse. It can at least have a master who knows how to ride properly and be productive.", I said with a smirk. "You clearly don't know who I am or else you would have not just saved me first but also would have shown respect.", he shouted at me. What an arrogant jerk! At that moment I knew we hate each other, but fate had some other plans for us!
