My stepson, Lucas Lincoln, is trapped in a fire. After calling the fire brigade, I quickly ring my husband, Jasper Lincoln. Jasper is the leader of a search-and-rescue team, after all. But to my dismay, Jasper is currently keeping his ex-wife, Yvonne Schmidt, company. Yvonne has won the "Forensic Doctor of the Year" award, and so they are out celebrating it. My phone calls are rejected again and again. Jasper never once calls me back, even after Lucas' cries for help disappear entirely. By the time the fire brigade arrives to quell the flames, Lucas has been burned to a crisp. I tell Jasper what happened to our son, but he only gleefully says, "He was nothing but a troublemaker who'd contribute nothing to society. If he's dead, then so be it. This way, he won't grow up to become a menace. "Yvonne happens to be giving a public talk tomorrow and is still in need of a specimen demonstrating burn injuries. She can use Noah's corpse for her demonstration since it's still fresh." I sneer. So Jasper thinks that my own son, Noah Green, is the one who died in the fire. I immediately send Lucas' blackened corpse to Yvonne's operating room.

Second book in My Archangel Soulmate series ** Strong arms wrapped around my much smaller frame, comfortable warmth engulfing my tingling body, followed by the softest, sweetest touch of his lips against mine, moving in a slow, gentle kiss. My eyelids fluttered closed on their own accord, pressing myself even closer, my hand finding its way around his neck, burying my fingers in his short soft hair while the small sparks of bright light still danced in between us, mixing with each other. It felt so magical, so utterly ethereal, the way his entire being felt so close to mine, tiny pieces of himself tangling with mine, like small silvery strings those tiny pieces drawing us together, creating a supernatural bond.

My husband and I have been legally married for five years. This is the tenth time he's canceled our wedding ceremony. This time? His student, Laura, is competing in her first international violin competition—and he 'needs' to be there. I still remember the last cancellation: an awards ceremony he had to attend with her. The time before that? She fell ill, and he stayed at her hospital bedside. The other times? I've lost count of the excuses, but it doesn't matter. The reason is always Laura. Her needs always outweighed my wedding. My marriage. My life. Fine. If he wanted to stand by Laura so badly, he could stay there forever. This hollow, five-year farce of a marriage? It's over.

Simula pagkabata, humahanga na si Alliana sa Ninong niyang si Amadeus isang propesor. Kaibigan ito ng kanyang mga magulang at isa sa mga taong naging sandigan ng pamilya niya noong bata pa siya. Kahit noon pa man, alam na ni Alliana sa sarili niya na hindi lang basta paghanga ang nararamdaman niya sa kanyang Ninong. Tahimik niyang pinangarap na balang-araw, kapag siya’y ganap nang dalaga, baka sakaling mapansin din siya nito. Lumipat ang pamilya nila sa Vancouver Canada, at doon siya lumaki. Nang bumalik siya sa Pilipinas, isa na siyang kolehiyala. Dahil hindi na makakauwi sa Pilipinas ang kanyang mga magulang, ipinagkatiwala siya kay Amadeus na hindi lang ngayon ay guardian niya, kundi isa rin sa magiging propesor niya sa unibersidad. Sa tabi mismo ng condo unit ni Amadeus siya nanirahan. Mula nang magkita silang muli, hindi nawala ang pagkamangha ni Alliana sa kanya. Hindi pa rin ito nag-asawa. May dalawampung taon ang agwat ng edad nila, pero lalong lumalim ang damdamin ni Alliana sa araw-araw na kasama niya ito. Nakikita niya kung paano ito igalang ng mga estudyante, kung gaano ito ka-organisado at katalino, at kung gaano ito ka-dedicated sa trabaho. Ngunit gaano man siya lumapit, tila may dingding pa rin sa pagitan nila. Turing pa rin sa kanya ni Amadeus ay isang bata. Isang inaanak na kailangang alagaan at ituwid. Nagpasya siyang akitin ito sa kahit paanong paraan na alam niya, at kung hindi pa rin ito bumigay sa kanya tutuluyan na niya itong kakalimutan talaga at ibabaon ang damdamin para rito.
