Nami Vivi

“Kahit sabay pa tayong nangako sa altar, wala kang aasahan sa’kin. I’m not going to be the husband you want.” Ang mga salitang ito mula kay Luigi Ibarra ay parang kutsilyong tumagos sa puso ni Nami Santiago—isang mayaman ngunit nerdy na babae na matagal nang may lihim na paghanga kay Luigi. Si Luigi, ang pinakasikat na aktor sa bansa, ay napilitang magpakasal kay Nami upang mapanatili ang legacy ng kanyang pamilya. Ngunit kahit kailan, wala itong patak ng pagmamahal para sa kanya. She was the complete opposite of his type, and she knew it. Pero masyado lang talaga siyang martir. Hanggang isang gabi, nagbago ang lahat. Nahuli niyang may ibang babae si Luigi—ang ka-love team nitong si Sasha Alvarez. Sa puntong iyon, tuluyan na niyang binitawan si Luigi. Pero kasabay ng kanyang paglayo ay natuklasan niyang nagdadalang-tao siya. Four years have passed, at nabaliktad ang sitwasyon. Si Luigi na ngayon ang naghahabol nang malaman niyang may anak sila ni Nami. Will she choose to forgive him, or will she move on and choose Arren Corpuz, another famous actor who stood by her side when everything fell apart?

Reborn as the long-lost Rogers heir, missing for fifteen years, I avoided every chance to bond with my two brothers in this family. When they tossed me Vivi’s discarded, ill-fitting gown for the family gala, I smiled and put it on. When they sent Vivi to get an elite education while ordering me to scrub the utility room, I picked up the mop without a word. When they let Vivi chase love and dumped her rejected suitor on me, I didn’t fight. I accepted her leftovers with a calm nod. This was all because in my past life, I had spent my entire life desperate for my brothers' approval, only to end up despised by everyone for it. When I died in the crossfire of a gangland shootout, my own son pushed my body away in disgust. "Mom, did you really waste your whole life on such a petty fight with Aunt Vivi? Dying for the family would have been a more dignified end. At least then you wouldn't have disgraced our name." I left this world filled with resentment, only to open my eyes and find myself back at the moment I first set foot in the Rogers estate. This time, I'm done fighting. The power, the name, the honor. I'm letting them have it all. I’ve already been accepted into a closed-door medical project. Soon they will never see me again.

Lucius the Alpha is cursed. Fair and square. He has always known that, since he was right there when the spell was cast and the yoke was made. Fighting against the curse only dredged up the pain of his parents tragic end, so he stopped fighting and worked towards his pack getting stronger. Iris is a slave, with a stepsister that has an ego mightier than the strongest wolf, a stepmother that hates her and a father that is spineless. She has learned to live with it, regardless. When a mishap causes Lucius to fall into bed with Iris and pregnancy occurs, Iris is strong armed into running for her life and leaving the pack that once protected her. With Lucius never knowing of that pregnancy and the very possibility of his curse getting broken by his own blood, what happens to the slave of an alpha.

"What if....you were the one inside this novel?" In a chain story, the novel started with a girl named Leah, a beautiful girl with spoiled love from her brother [Lewis] he, who protect her from dangers, and her friends [Nami, Gu, Georgia and Ole] they, who helped her from her woes and problems. Now, however, she found something new. A novel that will change her life forever. If that's the case, then what will Leah do if she found herself in a novel where the novel chained her? "What if...." in a story, where you are just a side character running around with the main characters. Just "what if..."

My boyfriend, Harvey Seinfeld, got diagnosed with cancer and needed a liver transplant. When I found out I was a match, I didn't think twice. Two-thirds of my liver—gone. The pain was brutal. As soon as I came to, I dragged myself to his room. Right before I walked in, I heard him laughing with his friends. "Harvey, you're a genius for coming up with such an epic revenge plan." He snorted. "If I didn't have to keep it low-key, I would've taken a kidney just for fun. "It's her fault Vivi bombed her art exam and had to study abroad. Vivi's coming back next month. That's when I'll be done with her for good."

Renacida como la heredera perdida de los Rogers, estuve perdida por quince años, evité cada oportunidad de crear lazos con mis dos hermanos en esta familia. Cuando me tiraron el vestido desechado y mal ajustado de Vivi para la gala familiar, sonreí y me lo puse. Cuando enviaron a Vivi a recibir una educación de élite mientras me ordenaban fregar el cuarto de servicio, tomé el trapeador sin decir una palabra. Cuando dejaron que Vivi buscara el amor y me dejaron a su pretendiente rechazado, no luché. Acepté sus sobras con un gesto tranquilo. Todo esto era porque en mi vida pasada, había pasado toda mi existencia desesperada por la aprobación de mis hermanos, solo para terminar siendo despreciada por todos. Cuando morí en el fuego cruzado de un tiroteo entre bandas, mi propio hijo empujó mi cuerpo con asco. —Mamá, ¿de verdad desperdiciaste toda tu vida en una pelea tan insignificante con la tía Vivi? Morir por la familia hubiera sido un final más digno. Al menos así no habrías deshonrado nuestro nombre. Dejé este mundo llena de resentimiento, solo para abrir los ojos y encontrarme de vuelta en el momento en que puse un pie por primera vez en la mansión Rogers. Esta vez, he terminado de luchar. El poder, el nombre y el honor. Les dejo que lo tengan todo. Ya me aceptaron en un proyecto médico a puerta cerrada. Pronto no volverán a verme.

It's my wedding day. However, Julian Lancaster shoves me aside when he receives a call from Vivienne Hayes. "I'm sorry, honey. Vivi has an upset stomach—I need to bring her some medication for that."

Pacarku, Bima Arya, divonis menderita kanker dan membutuhkan transplantasi hati. Begitu tahu aku cocok jadi donor, tanpa ragu aku langsung memutuskan untuk menjalani operasi. Dua per tiga hatiku diangkat, rasa sakitnya luar biasa. Namun, saat sadar, hal pertama yang kulakukan adalah memeriksa keadaannya. Di depan kamarnya, aku mendengar dia berbicara dengan temannya. "Kak Bima, kamu benar-benar genius. Bisa-bisanya kepikiran cara balas dendam sehebat ini." Bima tertawa kecil. "Kalau saja aku nggak mau buat masalah besar, sebenarnya aku ingin ambil ginjalnya buat main-main." "Semua ini gara-gara Nimas, Vivi jadi gagal ujian masuk universitas dan harus kuliah di luar negeri. Sebulan lagi Vivi akan pulang ke dalam negeri dan saat itulah aku akan sepenuhnya putus dari Nimas."

Satu malam yang tak seharusnya terjadi mengikat Vivi pada Giorgio—tunangan yang juga dosen mudanya. Rahasia kehamilan yang ia sembunyikan kini jadi bom waktu di balik reputasi dan pernikahan yang dijadwalkan. Bagaimana mungkin menjaga jarak, jika setiap hari justru membuat mereka kian terjerat?

Sybil von Rosen was never meant to grow up among humans. Born a Lycan princess through a human surrogate, she was stolen from the castle as an infant by the very woman meant to nurse her, a woman who turned out to be a witch. Hidden beneath a powerful spell that caged her wolf and erased her scent from the supernatural world, Sybil was raised knowing exactly who she was… and exactly what she had been bred for. A womb. A crown. Her bloodline’s legacy. But Sybil was never meant to be a broodmare queen. She grew up human with the strength and senses of a shewolf and the magic of the witches, which got transferred to her while she was still in the womb of her surrogate. Betrayed by her hybrid fiancé, who abandoned her to marry the princess of their kingdom, Sybil made a decision that will shake three kingdoms. She returned. Not for love. Not for duty. For revenge… But the throne comes with chains. Instead of marrying one Alpha, she is bound to four—the Alpha Guardians of Lupenreich. Ruthless. Powerful. Pureblood. Feared across kingdoms. She cannot smell her mates. She is a Lycan princess trapped in a wolfless witch body. While the Alphas believe they're claiming their future Queen, Sybil is already planning something far more dangerous. She will not stand beside a king. She will not be used to breed to secure bloodlines. She certainly will not be ruled. If the kingdom wants a queen… They’re about to kneel to a rebel queen. Sybil von Rosen is not an ordinary Luna. She is the last Lycan heir. The forbidden daughter of witches. The mate of four Alpha Guardians. And she intends to take the throne for herself and will bow to no one.
