A rebellious woman and a policeman. Will she accept that she was loved and chained by him? Tunay nga na kapag tumitigas ang ulo ng isang bata, kailangang dinidisiplina. Pero sa kaso ni Gisselle na dalaga na, hindi niya matanggap na dinidisiplina siya ng isang pulis na hindi niya naman kilala. Ang nais niya lang naman ay magrebelde dahil sa sama ng loob niya sa sarili niyang ama na dating pulis, na aniya’y tila wala naman daw sa katuwiran, at abusado sa karapatan ng kababaihan. Naging party girl siya dahil sa mga barkada niya at sinasadyang magpa-late ng uwi upang inisin ang kaniyang ama. Pero ang hindi niya alam, iyon na pala ang huling beses na magagawa niya ang mga bagay na ’yon. Nahuli siya ng mga pulis sa kalsada nang hating-gabi, at naging buena manong curfew violator sa gabing iyon. Napatawan siya ng community service sa loob ng isang buwan. Naiinis siya sa tuwing nakakakita siya ng mga pulis, lalo na ang lalaking hindi niya inaasahang makikilala niya. Naiinis siya lalo dahil desidido itong palambutin ang ulo niya. Tahimik lamang itong lalaki pero walang sinoman ang kayang bumali sa mga salita nito. Hanggang sa hindi niya namamalayan na nag-iiba na pala ang tingin at pananaw niya sa mga pulis, na hindi pala lahat ay masasama tulad ng iniisip niya noon. May tulad pa rin pala ni PCol. Carlos Joseph Guevarra na matino at disiplinadong pulis na magpapatino sa kaniyang rebeldeng pag-iisip. Lingid sa kaalaman ng dalaga, may lihim palang interes sa kaniya ang single at treinta y tres anyos na pulis. Kaya naman pala kahit na anong gawin niya ay pinapansin agad nito at todo kung makaprotekta sa kaniya. Papaano niya kaya mapipigilan ang lalaki kung siya mismo ay hindi ito magawang mapaikot sa mga kamay niya?

"I hate you!" Allison spat, her teeth grinding against each other loudly in anger. "You do?" Dante asked, grinning wolfishly. His gold eyes glinted in amusement.

The wedding had barely started when the lights went out. Then came the moans—from the giant screen behind the altar. Hailey froze. Her skin went ghost-pale. Her whole body shook. A beat later, the doors slammed open. Leading the charge? Nolan. Cold eyes, sharp suit, and bodyguards in tow. He stormed the stage. The groom tried to stop him. Big mistake. Nolan's guys dropped him in seconds. Nolan grabbed a fistful of the groom's hair and yanked his head back. "Heh. I've slept with Hailey hundreds—maybe thousands—of times. Used condoms alone could fill your house. Wanna see the HD vids?" Hailey's eyes locked on Nolan, pure hate. She'd been his kept woman for eight years. He loathed her family. He loathed her. Swore she'd never know peace. Then she disappeared—and he lost his mind.

My parents' enemy kidnapped me and live-streamed cutting off my fingers, just to force them to show up. For a time, the entire internet was searching for my parents. But what no one knew was that the police chief on the live connection was my real father. At that very moment, he was on a beach in Havai, lighting fireworks for his adopted son. And on their barbecue table, the live stream of my fingers being cut off was playing. Later, I survived long enough to be rescued, and I reached out with my severed fingers, wanting to touch my parents. But they recoiled in disgust and, without so much as a backward glance, took their adopted son out for steak. What they never realized was that hidden inside my severed fingers was something that would make them regret everything.
