Octavia Helluva Boss

Sa araw, siya ang mahinhin at maparaan na chief secretary, at sa gabi, siya ang malambot at charming na kapares sa kama. Paglipas ng tatlong taon ng mutual support, akala niya ay minahal siya nito. Nagpropose siya sa binata, ngunit narinig niya ang sinabi nito: "Ito ay laro lamang na kasali ang katawan pero hindi ang puso. Sa tingin mo seseryosohin ko to?" Sobra siyang nasaktan at lumingon paalis. Simula non, ang buhay niya ay umangat, umangat din siya sa career, at naging gold medal lawyer na walang sino mang nangahas sa legal community. Merong hindi mabilang na manliligaw sa paligid niya. Pinagsisihan iyon ng binata at tinulak siya sa dingding na may namumugtong mata: "Ang katawan ko, ang buhay ko, lahat ay sayo, will you marry me?" Maliwanag ang mga ngiti niya: "Pasensya na, gumilid ka, hinaharangan mo ang panibagong buhay ko."

“Apa!!!” Deva setengah teriak setelah mendengarkan apa yang dikatakan wanita di depannya yang selalu dipanggil Boss oleh orang-orang di kantornya. Wanita yang duduk santai sambil menatap wajah Deva yang pucat pasi setelah mendengarkan apa yang dikatakannya tanpa wajah bersalah yang bernama Adelia Cantara Hermawan, nama itu terpampang jelas di papan nama di meja kerja wanita itu “Apa kau tuli?” tanya wanita itu. Deva terbelalak, sikapnya langsung salah tingkah di depan wanita itu, dia tidak percaya hari ini dia di lamar oleh bosnya sendiri. “Anda bercandakan,” kata Deva mencoba tertawa dan berharap ini hanya prank belaka, tapi wajah dingin bosnya membuat senyum di bibir Deva langsung hilang begitu saja. “Kau sudah berapa lama bekerja denganku, apakah aku tipe orang yang mempunyai waktu untuk bercanda?” jawab Adelia. Deva berdiri lalu berkacak pinggang, “Ini bukanlah hal yang dapat anda putuskan sendiri, bagaimana anda bisa memanggil saya lalu meminta saya untuk menikah dengan anda, bagi saya menikah harus dengan orang yang kita cintai,” kata Deva panjang lebar. Adelia menyenderkan badannya di kursi sambil melipat tangannya, “Kau kira aku benar-benar ingin menikahimu?” kata Adelia lagi sambil membuka laci mejanya dan mengeluarkan sebuah map hijau ke atas mejanya.

Moon De Vera was never the type to take risks—lalo na sa pag-ibig. Pero nang inalok siya ng isang deal ng estrangherong si Lucas Madrigal, pumayag siya. Fake relationship. No strings attached. Lucas needed a pretend girlfriend para patahimikin ang media, at si Moon—she badly needed the money para sa pamilya niya. Sa simula, malinaw ang kasunduan. Walang selosan, walang expectations. Pero kahit gaano nila tangkaing panatilihing peke, hindi nila mapigilan ang spark na unti-unting nabubuo. Late-night talks. Unexpected kilig. Lingering stares. Halos. Pero sa kasagsagan ng paglalim ng nararamdaman ni Moon, biglang nawala si Lucas. Walang paalam. Walang mensahe. Ghosted. Left hanging. Pitong taon ang lumipas. Si Moon, mas matatag na ngayon. Mas kampante, mas kumpleto. Sa pagbabalik niya sa corporate world, nag-apply siya sa isang sikat na kumpanya—hindi niya alam, doon din siya muling masasaktan. Lucas Madrigal is back. Pero ngayong CEO na siya, at si Moon ang magiging sekretarya niya, tables have turned. Lucas acts cold, pero may halong pag-aalalang hindi niya maitagong lubos. Moon, on the other hand, pretends she's fine. But the tension? It's there. Unspoken. Unfinished. Undeniable. As they spend more time together, lumalabas ang mga lihim—kung bakit bigla siyang nawala. Kung anong nangyari sa pagitan nila noon. At kung totoo nga bang wala siyang naramdaman. Pero ang mas mabigat: May bagong plano si Moon. At hindi ito para muling magmahal. It’s to make him fall—this time, without catching him. Matutuloy ba ang plano ni Moon? O hahayaan na lang nya ang nakaraan at sasabay sa agos ng pag-iibigang mabubuo muli

After a devastating heartbreak, she walks into a bar hoping to forget everything,but instead, she falls into the arms of the last man she ever expected. One accidental kiss. One unforgettable night. And now, her life is about to change forever.

It was all her fault. My life could have been simple—40-hour shifts at KFC, sneaking extra chicken crumbs, and binge-watching reality shows. But no. Instead, here I was, standing at the altar, saying I do to a man whose idea of “casual” involved drugs, women, and murder on speed dial. Thanks, Mom. Not only did she ruin my life, but she also sold it—traded me off to the deadliest Mafia boss alive, Mario Santiago, as if I were some secondhand couch on clearance. Mario Santiago. Yeah, that Mario Santiago. The Human Terminator. The guy whose enemies mysteriously vanish like my paycheck two days after payday. And now, I was his wife. He glanced at me with a slow, wolfish smile that practically screamed trouble. That was when I knew two things: 1. I was completely doomed. 2. This man was going to wreck my heart (and probably my life). But hey, it could be worse, right? At least I’d get a killer wardrobe out of it. *** Are you looking for romance and humor? Stuck with Mario Santiago is a hilarious, Mafia billionaire romance filled with danger, betrayal, drama, and a love story you won’t forget. Dive in—you won’t regret it (but the characters might).
