Shinee Member

Sa gitna ng karangyaan ng Blue Ocean Cruise Ship, isang banggaan ng galit at kapalaran ang magpapasimula ng pagbabago sa buhay nina Cherry at Jal. Si Cherry, isang matapang at determinadong crew member na may fiancée na nangangalang David, ay umuusok sa galit matapos ang magulong araw sa trabaho. Sa isang aksidenteng pagkikita, napagkamalan niyang gigolo ang isang gwapong lalaki na tila walang pakialam sa mundo—si Jal. Ngunit ang hindi niya alam, ang lalaking kanyang sinigawan at tinawag na bastos ay ang mismong kapitan, CEO, at bilyonaryong nagmamay-ari ng barkong kanyang pinagtatrabahuhan. Ngunit sa ilalim ng liwanag ng buwan at sa kislap ng dagat, naganap ang isang gabing hindi nila inaasahan—isang mainit at mapusok na one-night stand na nag-iwan ng masakit na katotohanan: si Cherry ay nagdadalang-tao ng triplets. Habang patuloy na iniwasan ni Cherry si Jal, ang galit niya rito ay nagiging masalimuot na damdaming hindi niya maunawaan. Ang kanyang puso ay tila nagkakaroon ng sariling isip tuwing nakikita si Jal, kahit pa alam niyang may malaking sagabal sa kanilang dalawa—ang kanyang matagal nang fiancé na si David, na naghahanda na para sa kanilang kasal sa susunod na taon. Sa bawat araw na lumilipas, lalo siyang nahuhulog sa kakaibang ganda at pagkatao ni Cherry—isang damdaming hindi niya inasahan at pilit niyang nilalabanan. Ngunit paano kung malaman niya ang lihim ni Cherry? Paano kung matuklasan niyang siya ang ama ng mga triplets na dinadala nito? Pipiliin ba ni Cherry ang responsibilidad ng pangako kay David, o ang tawag ng pusong nagsisigaw para kay Jal?

I put my things away, and when I pretended to leave Fight Club, I was approached by the least expected person of all. William Walker himself. "Sage?" he asked in a soft voice. "Yes," I said in a modulated tone of voice so he wouldn't recognize my real voice, though I could bet he would never realize who I was. "I liked your fight; the way you knocked that guy out was fun," he said, and I realized that the really dumb guy was looking at me like I was candy. "It's a good thing you liked it; I guess you bet on me," I said sarcastically and turned to walk away and leave him talking to himself, but the very wayward one grabbed my arm. "Sorry about that," William said, and I glared at him. "I'd like to buy you a drink and maybe lunch. I know from my own experience that after a good fight, it makes you very hungry." I shook my head at his pathetic attempt at conquest and laughed. "Sorry, but I'm not dating anyone, so I hope you have an excellent evening," I said humorously and headed for the exit. I hoped the spoiled child of the pack had gotten the message. ___________ Snow was the outcast of the Ever Green Pack, every pack member kept a distance from her. When William Walker, the Alpha heir found the weak ‘Omega’ was his mate, he unhesitatingly decided to reject Snow when she turned 18. But William didn’t know that his secret admiration of a girl named Sage in the Fighter Club was another identity of Snow. William had a big interest in Sage and wanted her so much. Sage is strong and Snow is weak, the two different profiles of the same girl make things interesting. Which side of her could win William’s heart? What’s the truth of Snow’s early shift and her great power? Read the book to find the answer.

On the night of New Year's Eve, I wake up in a hospital ward with an IV drip connected to the back of my hand. A nurse passes me the hospital bill. "It's 300 dollars in total, including the emergency treatment fee and the cost for a bottle of glucose drips." When I turn on my phone, I feel my heart sinking. I only have 29.01 dollars left in my bank account. The wallpaper of my phone is a countdown of my family contract's app. Today is the date when I have to renew my family contract for the year. In order to accumulate enough money to go home, I've been working as a staff member in concert venues. Earlier, I had collapsed backstage, so I was quickly sent to the hospital. The dial tone keeps beeping for a long time. Finally, my mom answers my call in what seems to be a noisy background. "Mom, I'm at the hospital right now. I need 300 dollars to pay the hospital bill." "You're at the hospital?" Mom's voice turns shrill immediately. "Why did you visit the hospital during the holidays? You really are a jinx!" "I fainted earlier. I was working at a concert venue—" "What? So, you refused to do chores at home during the holidays! Instead, you decide to work at a concert venue?" Mom interrupts immediately. "I don't have 300 dollars on me! You'd better come up with a way to pay that bill of yours!" "Mom…" My hand tightens around my phone. "Today is the last day of my family contract's renewal period. I'll renew the contract once I pay the bill." "Renew the contract, huh?" Mom just sneers at me. "That's a part of your duties! How dare you use it against me! Helena Lambert, if you don't renew the contract today, you can forget about calling me 'Mom'!" After that, she ends the call. I can only grip my phone to the point that my fingers turn white. After that, I tap on a social media app in hopes that I can borrow money from my friends, only to see the latest post on the social media feed. My younger sister, Hannah Lambert, has posted a photo collage there. "I'm here with my parents to watch my favorite singer's concert! Snagging tickets to the first-row seats is definitely worth it!" The background of those photos is the same concert venue where I work part-time at. It's the most expensive venue in town. Apparently, tickets cost 2,900 dollars each.
