Predatory Marriage

Sa isang mundo kung saan ang pag-ibig ay tila isang laro ng kapangyarihan at pangangailangan, nagkrus ang landas nina Isla Montemayor at Liam Callisto-dalawang taong magkaiba ng mundo pero parehong desperado sa isang bagay. Si Isla, isang matapang at determinadong babae, ay kailangang iligtas ang kanilang naluluging negosyo at ang nag-iisang pamilya niyang natitira—ang kapatid niyang si Lucas na may malubhang sakit. Samantalang si Liam, isang malamig at istriktong CEO, ay nangangailangan ng isang huwad na asawa upang mapanatili ang kanyang posisyon sa Callisto Group at hindi ito mapasakamay ng kanyang tusong madrasta. Dahil sa desperasyon, isang kasunduang kasal ang nagbuklod sa kanila—isang kasunduan na dapat ay walang halong damdamin. Ngunit paano kung ang larong ito ng pagpapanggap ay unti-unting maging totoo? Paano kung sa kabila ng kanilang matinding away, pagkakaiba, at mga lihim, ay matutunan nilang umibig sa isa't isa? Sa gitna ng pagsubok, pagtataksil, at mga hindi inaasahang rebelasyon, matutuklasan nina Isla at Liam na ang tunay na pag-ibig ay hindi isang kasunduan—ito ay isang bagay na lalampas sa kahit anong kontrata. Ngunit sapat ba ang pagmamahal upang talunin ang lahat ng balakid? Isang kwento ng pag-ibig na hindi lang tungkol sa isang kasunduan, kundi sa pagpili ng pagmamahal kahit gaano kahirap. Dahil sa huli, kahit anong pagsubok, ang tunay na pag-ibig ang magtatagumpay.

**They wanted to choose my husband. So I bought one instead.** --- "You'll be meeting your soon-to-be husband at the next family dinner." Aunt Melissa's words hit like poison. I choked, shock stealing my breath. Family dinners at my grandparents' estate were already hell—arguments shattering crystal, curses wrapped in concern, smiles hiding knives. But this? This crossed every line. Who the hell did they think they were, choosing my husband like I was some pawn in their twisted game? *That's never happening.* I built Phias Empire from the wreckage of my inheritance, clawed my way up from the car crash that killed my parents twenty years ago. I survived being trapped underwater, survived my family's hatred, survived my cousin Sophie's lifetime of cruelty—always my shadow, desperate to eclipse me. I didn't survive all that to let them control who I marry. Then I saw him. David Kane. Six-foot-three of devastating perfection, commanding my manufacturing floor like he was born for it. Dark hair, ice-blue eyes, a body that made me forget how to breathe. A contractor. The branch manager's son. Nobody important. *Perfect.* My family wanted to force a husband on me? Fine. I'd bring them one—on my terms. A contract so airtight no one could question it. And God, I wanted him. I couldn't wait to see Sophie's face. Couldn't wait to watch their plans crumble. They forgot who I am. I'm Sophia Ashford. I don't play by their rules. And I'm about to make the most dangerous deal of my life.
