“Akin ka lang, Vespera. Kahit stepsister kita sa papel, kahit bawal tayo sa dugo at mata ng mundo—hindi na kita pakakawalan ulit.” Ako si Vespera Luxienne Salazar, 29 anyos na nagtago limang taon sa Italy kasama ang kambal kong anak—sina Azrael at Nyxienne—mula sa lalaking sumira at sumakop sa puso ko: si Draven Kairos Valtieri. Siya ang ruthless na mafia heir ng Valtieri empire—guwapong mapanganib, puno ng tattoos, at may obsession na hindi na matitinag. Simula nang mag-merge ang pamilya namin dahil sa arranged marriage ng mga magulang, bawal na pag-ibig ang naging simula namin: isang gabing puno ng galit, pagnanasa, at kasalanan na nag-iwan sa akin ng kambal. Nang malaman kong may kinalaman ang ex niya sa aksidenteng muntik nang pumatay sa akin at sa mga anak ko, umalis ako. Ngayon, bumalik ako dahil sa sakit ng ina ko—handa na sanang harapin ang nakaraan, pero hindi ang muling pag-alab ng obsession niya. Habang nagmamakaawa siya at pinoprotektahan kami, lumalabas ang mga lihim: ako pala ang lost heiress ng ancient Moretti bloodline, at ang kambal ang may dalang kapangyarihan na gustong agawin ng mga kaaway. Sino ang tunay na traidor? Makakalaya ba kami sa bawal na pag-ibig na ito, o mas lalo lang kaming mabibitag sa dilim?

Except, this demon is a willful, selfish, and as handsome as devilish he was. Extract: In fear, Belle tried to dash but a hand had sneaked out from the black fog, holding tightly to her elbow. What followed the tight grip on her arm was a voice that sounded deep— deep enough to sound as though he hell was shallower compared to him. "Now, now, where are you running, little prey?" Belle didn't know what she had done. She didn't know what force had caused her to activate what she did. She didn't know what had happened either as her mind was slow to grasp her surrounding. But there was one thing she knew after staring back at the bright red eyes across her. She was looking at a demon. She had called a demon.

I happen to come across a popular post regarding a company's finance department on social media. "Seriously, that person in the sales department is such an idiot! All I wanted was to claim reimbursement under her name for the bag I bought, and yet she still refused! "Since she doesn't want me to reimburse my bag, then she can forget about reimbursing everything! This time, I'll teach her a lesson about what happens when she offends a member of the finance department!" There are many bashing comments in the comment section, but the original poster doesn't care at all. She continues adopting a haughty tone. "What am I scared of? The finance department is extremely vital to the company! I refuse to believe that the boss has the courage to offend me, the most important person alive, just to stand up for a sales employee who's easily replaceable!" As I stare at the familiar profile picture belonging to the original poster, I can't help but mentally sneer. She wants to suspend all of my reimbursements, huh? Go ahead, then! This time, I'd like to see what the consequences are for offending a member of the finance department!
