Scarlot Rot

Ythaniel delos Reyes is the campus heartthrob. Tahimik, seryoso, at laging inuuna ang pamilya at pag-aaral. He rarely talks, but he has a soft spot for one person: his step-sister, Ashannah Zacharias. Ashannah is his total opposite, magulo, masayahin, at tila laging sinusundan ng malas. Trouble seems to find her, kahit anong iwas niya. Mabait siya, pero parang may sumpa. And every time may gulo, si Ythaniel ang laging sumasalo. Hindi sila tunay na magkapatid, pero may natural na koneksyon sa pagitan nila. He’s always there for her, whether it’s a late-night rescue, school drama, or family conflict. At si Ashannah? Sa kahit maliit na bagay, si Ythaniel agad ang takbuhan niya. Hanggang sa dumating ang puntong hindi na lang “kuya” ang tingin niya sa kanya. At si Ythaniel? Hindi na lang basta “kapatid” ang turing niya kay Ashannah. They didn’t plan it. They didn’t want it. But they fell in love. Mali sa paningin ng iba. Bawal sa mata ng pamilya. Pero totoo sa puso nila. Will they fight for their love or choose peace for the sake of family? Can love survive when the world sees it as wrong? This is a story of forbidden love—between two hearts brought under one roof, not to fall in love… but did. --- DISCLAIMER: This is a work of fiction.

Hindi maalala ni Angela ang kaniyang nakaraan dahil sa isang aksidente. Pero madalas siyang dalawin ng mga masasamang panaginip kung saan binubugbog daw siya ng isang lalaki dahil sa labis na selos. Mabuti na lang tuwing gigising siya ay niyayakap siya ng kaniyang asawang si Kyle, at sinasabi nitong isang bangungot lang ’yon, walang katotohanan, at lalong hindi parte ng kaniyang naburang alaala. Kaya lang pakiramdam ni Angela minsan ay ayaw sa kaniya ng kaniyang asawa at parang hindi siya nito mahal, lalo na't madalas siya nitong iwan sa Mindoro dahil madalas itong pumunta ng Maynila para sa negosyo raw nito na hindi naman niya alam kung ano. Kaya minsan ay naiisip na lang niya na baka may babae itong tinatago sa kaniya at iyon ang pinupuntahan nito sa Maynila. Kaya naman para malaman ang madalas na pag-iwan sa kaniya ng asawa ay gumawa siya ng paraan. Sinundan niya ito sa Maynila nang hindi nito alam. Ngunit paano kung sa pagdating niya ng Maynila ay doon na mag-uumpisang bumalik ang lahat ng kaniyang mga naburang alaala, at malalaman ang mga sekretong pilit na itinatago ng kaniyang asawa? At paano kung malaman niya na lang na hindi pala siya tunay na asawa ng kaniyang pinaniwalaang asawa, but his brother’s wife?

Tagos sa kasalanan. Lunod sa tukso. Trixie Manalastas thought she had it all figured out—loyal assistant by day, quiet and composed by night. Pero nagbago ang lahat nang mapilitan siyang tumira sa iisang bubong kasama ng lalaking bawal niyang pagnasaan—ang brother-in-law niyang si Lance Dominic "Dom" Arriola. Tall, brooding, at laging naka-sando na parang kasalanan ang bawat muscle, si Dominic ang tipo ng lalaking tinitingnan mo lang dapat… pero hindi mo dapat hinahangaan. Lalo na’t kapatid siya ng fiancé mo. Pero paano kung sa bawat titig niya ay may banta ng tukso? Sa bawat sulyap, parang hinuhubaran ka na? Sa bawat gabing tahimik, may mga ungol na gustong kumawala? At paano kung isang gabing walang kuryente, sa ilalim ng init ng dilim, hindi mo na mapigilan ang sarili mo—at ang kasalanan ay hindi lang basta nangyari, kundi sinadya? This is not your typical love story. This is a tale of temptation, guilt, and a kind of pleasure na bawal pero hindi mo maitatangging gusto mo. Because sometimes… the one who ruins you, is the one you crave the most.
