Staying Positive

As soon as I come of age, I become the secret lover of Luciano Carlotta, the future Don of his family. The reason why I choose to be with him isn't to covet his money—it's because I love him. To me, he's my savior who has rescued me from my sad, tragic life as an orphan. He even tells me lovingly that it's not my fault that my parents don't want me, and that he will be the one loving me from now on. So, when Luciano wants me to give birth to his child, I say yes. But once the baby is born, I'm only allowed to visit him once per month. Luciano explains, "I'm the future Don, Rosanna. My family wants me to marry a woman of a similar background and social standing. They still find it difficult to accept you at the moment. I have to keep their opinions of you in mind. "Just wait for a little longer. Once I conquer the final turf and become the Don, I'll definitely marry you. Our son shall become my heir. Staying in the Carlotta family is the best option for him, you know." Naturally, I believe Luciano's excuses. On sleepless nights, I just stare at photos of him and our son as I shed tears quietly. One day, I receive great news from my best friend, Sofia Rossi. Apparently, she's about to get married. "Rosanna, I'm getting engaged! My fiance is very handsome, and he loves me with all his heart, too! You must attend my wedding when the time comes!" As I congratulate her, I tap on the photo that she's just sent me. But I find myself staring at Luciano's face instead.

After completing the quest, I insisted on staying in that world, foregoing the lucrative rewards. It was because I had a happy and perfect family there. My brother was a genius world-renowned scientist, and all his research achievements were named after me. My father was the world's richest man, and all his wealth was under my name. My mother was an extraordinarily talented dancer, but she gave up the stage just to spend more time with me. My family pampered me. I was the most envied pampered daughter in the world… until the day their real daughter, Carrie Langford, showed up at our door. Their love for me vanished overnight. From then on, I became inconsequential. Carrie orchestrated her own fall down the stairs, and my mother was so angry that she broke my leg. I ate a small bite of the cake Carrie threw away, so my father locked me in a dog cage for three days to dine with the dogs. He also made a golden cake for Carrie to make her feel better. Just because Carrie complained that her heart hurt, my brother dug out my heart for her and replaced it with an artificial heart. "It's just a heart. You've always been healthy. Carrie needs it more than you do." Calmly, my brother stood to the side, analyzing the data. "Don't worry, artificial heart technology is already very advanced, so the theoretical survival rate is very high. You won't die." After my soul left my body, I saw Carrie casually throw my heart into a trash can. The long-dormant system was awakened. [Would you like to take back everything you've given them, including your father's wealth, your mother's dancing talent, and your brother's intelligence, in exchange for a chance to revive?]

She had to leave and when she came back five years later. She wasn't alone; her triplets were also with her, and she was ready to give love a chance. Not to him but to someone else. But when he came begging, she told him.  “I have moved on, and I have my kids and I. So, bye, billionaire ex-husband”.

He was only with her to pass the time and to gain his inheritance.  After the 3-year contract ended she was hoping that the unborn child would bring them together and he would love her again but she got the shock of her life when she got back home to give him the good news, there professing his love for another woman was Ethan and the woman was no other person but her cousin who was his college sweetheart but kept it away from Maria. The truth was that they had been dating secretly without her knowing.  As if that wasn't enough, he threw the divorce papers at her and asked her to sign them. Maria tried to leave because there was no use staying back. But Ethan and Susan couldn't let her; she had to suffer all through her days of pregnancy until she gave birth through forced labor.

"I accepted everything, even your unborn child na walang ama tapos susuwayin mo ang utos ko? Akira gusto mo bang lumaki ng walang kinikilalang ama 'yang anak mo?" Sermon, yan ang palaging bungad ng stepmother ko sa tuwing pupunta ako dito sa bahay. Tumingin ako sa mga mukha nito, halata dito ang galit at inis. Napayuko lang ako dito sa sofa habang nakaupo. All my life I was a spoiled brat girl but in one night, in just one mistake nagbago lahat. Nakita ko ang pag hakbang nito palayo, ngunit bago pa man siya makaalis ay nagsalita muna ito. "You have no choice Akira, its either abort that child or marry Mr. Briar." "WHAT?" Sa sobrang gulat ay napasigaw ako at napatayo, napahinto naman si tita Belle. Lumingon ito sakin na parang nagtatanong kung bakit ako sumigaw. "A-anong si Mr. Briar?" "Yes, Mr. Reigh Briar. You know him right? Sila ang number 1 kalaban ng pamilya natin this coming election, so kung maikakasal ka sa kanya, you'll be staying there and be our spy." "Pero—" "No buts Akira." may diing sabi nito at tuluyan ng umalis. Si Reigh? Sa lahat ng lalaki si Reigh pa talaga? Why him? Kaya ko nga di pinaalam sa kanila kung sino ang ama ng batang nasa sinapupunan ko ay para lumayo sa kanya tapos ngayon siya ang papakasalan ko? PAPAKASALAN KO ANG EX KONG AMA NG DINADALA KO?

I used to think that Arthur McKinley being my older brother was the luckiest thing that had happened to me. But now, the very same wolf happens to be the most unlucky thing that has happened to me. I'm not his biological sister. Most of my memories are filled with starvation, coldness, violence, lies… Only when Arthur brought me back to the Starfall pack did I finally end my seemingly endless life of being a homeless Rogue. He had given me the warmth and affection that I've never felt before, only to retract everything from me overnight. This all happened just because I had confessed my feelings to him on the night of my awakening. Isn't it natural for me to fall in love with a werewolf who takes immensely good care of me? Moreover, he's also my fated mate. But the problem is, Arthur is my older brother even though we aren't related by blood. It's fine. I believe that I have enough love and passion to melt his heart, just like how he had slowly etched himself into mine back then. Because of that, I choose to not get in contact with my birth parents despite having located them. This is so that I can continue staying in the Starfall pack and by Arthur's side. But everything has changed the moment he brings a she-wolf home and forces me to address her as the Luna. That is the first time his words cut into my heart. Well, I'm terrified of pain, and I'm also rather prideful. So, I lower my head obediently and say, "Hello, Luna." That night, I immediately contact the Alpha and Luna of the Silverfrost pack, who are also my birth parents.

Blurb… “You're mine. You, the baby you're carrying in your womb, you're all mine. So you don't have to be scared of me. I'm never gonna hurt you…” Celine Thorn is shocked by the words coming out of the mouth of the vicious Lycan King, Maverick Wolfe. Words that aren't making sense to her. “No…please. I'm not your mate. I can't be your mate…” she pleaded. “I'm not proposing. I'm telling you how it is. YOU ARE MY MATE, CELINE. So I'm never letting you go back to whichever bastard is waiting for you in your Pack. You're staying here with me…” “I can't. Please, I'm begging you. Let me go.” “Never…” ************************************************************** Celine Thorn never found her fated mate so she married her long-term Alpha boyfriend, Ryder. On their wedding day, she found her mate but rejected him because of her intense love for Ryder. However, he found his mate later on and tosses her aside. Deep in misery, Celine realizes the only way out is to run away from the Pack. The plan was to go far away and start a new life with her unborn child. She didn't expect to fall into the hands of the vicious and dreaded Lycan King, Maverick Wolfe. And he seems to not want to let her go. What happens when he insists that she's his mate? Would she learn to love the man she's dreaded all her life? How would she deal with the complication when Ryder comes back into her life, asking for a second chance? What happens when she's caught in the middle of a long-term animosity between the Lycan King and the Alpha King?

Talia Graves, a fierce warrior raised within the powerful Black River Pack, was chosen by Alpha Thomas to be his Luna until he shattered everything. At a lavish pack ceremony, welcoming the Alpha home from a month-long summit. He is not alone, flanked by a stunning new she-wolf: Mira. Before the entire pack, he formally rejects Talia and names Mira his future Luna. Reeling from heartbreak and betrayal, Talia is ordered to serve as Mira’s guard and protect the future Luna with her life if needed. The final insult. But she refuses. With her younger sister Alina in tow, Talia flees, determined to protect the only family she has left. Leon, Thomas’s Beta, has sinister plans for Alina. Staying would mean surrendering her baby sister to a fate worse than exile. Branded traitors and rogues, the sisters are hunted. They brave harsh elements, feral wolves, and the pain of losing their pack. Just when hope is slipping away, rescue comes from an unlikely source: Casius, the Beta of the Obsidian Crown Pack. He offers safety—but Talia suspects his intense protection of Alina is concerning. Is it fate? Or something more dangerous? They settle, and Talia carves out a new identity on her terms. She’s offered a position as a trainer and the king's second chance mate. But her growing influence draws jealousy from rival warriors—especially Ilode, a dominant she-wolf with her sights on the King and Talia's new position. Talia doesn’t want power, but she needs it to protect Alina. Lucian sees her not as broken but as a survivor who will serve him and his pack well. Rogue attacks escalate, and Talia’s past threatens to destroy everything she’s rebuilt. She must choose: stay and fight for the future she wants or run again.

Strip now! you're my wife anyway" Harrison had said to Katherina as she fret over the chair she was sitting on. He was definitely not the man she had nursed till he got his memory back. He was now violent and over protective of her. "You are my wife Katherina, you are mine. You are mine alone!" Harrison roared slamming the flower vase down. "No Harrison. I am not your wife and I never was your wife. Give me breathing space Harrison....leave me alone!" Katherina said in voice so tiny as tears flowed from her eyes. It was evident she was tired of the whole drama already. Harrison sprawled to his kneels in front of her. He gently hugged her patting her hair softly and swiftly. "I'm sorry Rina, I'm sorry for making you cry, I'm sorry for hurting you, I'm sorry....I'm sorry. Please give me another chance, please do not leave me alone all by myself. I love you....I love you so very much Rina" he wailed to her ear. "Harrison." "Swear by my name Rina, tell me you only love me and not my brother." Harrison cried holding her body firmly. He definitely was in pain as he uttered those words with great grievance. Katherina just watched him wretch in pain. "I do not love you Harrison, I do not!" She had said back to him throwing his hands off her. Had she made a wrong choice of staying with him? Was he showing her this side of his just to keep her to himself or was he getting a revenge on her for lying to him just to acquire his wealth?

Summer morning, Wynter ran away from home to avoid his father's wrath towards her. Despite being mistreated by her grandmother and relatives, she chose to go to her grandmother's province since it was her last resort. She planned to stay there until the end of summer before her school starts. Through her stay in her grandmother's mansion, she experienced an unusual happening. A ghost named Theros appears in her room and starts to pester her. She was scared at first until she finds comfort in the ghost that made them become friends. Sa maikling panahon na pagsasama nila, nahulog si Theros kay Wynter at sa kabila ng pagkakaiba nila, naglakas loob na umamin si Theros. Kahit na may pagtingin din si Wynter kay Theros, Wyner decided to keep her feelings until her 18th birthday. Gusto niyang sa araw na 'yon sabihin kay Theros ang sagot sa pagtatapat nito. However, the supposed special day turns into a sorrowful one. Sa araw na dapat pagkikita nila ay walang sumipot na Theros. Wynter waited from dawn until dusk but he didn't come. She waited until her last day staying at her grandmother's home, but still, no one came. After a year, in an Art Museum, she saw Theros again, right in front of her eyes. Theros, on the other hand, didn't recognize her. He introduced himself as Aziz. Upang hindi pagtabuyan ni Theros, hindi na lamang niya ipinilit ang katotohanang may pinagsamahan sila noon. Sa paraang 'yon ay naging malapit muli sila. But what if Aziz was not the real Theros, but the twin brother, Ajax? Will she start again with Ajax, or continue the deal between her and Aziz?

I'm Dominik, the dark side of an Archangel. I have no good in me. I have never loved a soul. Yet, here I am, falling for a Human girl with bright blue eyes. How? I want to get the fuck out of here. Ever since I was imprisoned here, my brother has been a thorn in my spine. I have continually schemed ways to escape. Not that I don't appreciate Hilda and everything she has done, my freedom has always been my priority. Tell me why I am so enamored with this little Human? The way she laughs. The way she admires me when she thinks I'm not looking. The pink flooding her cheeks. The problem is, The Keepers are looking for their amulet, and Master Rowen is looking for his pet… I didn't know which one was worse. I knew what I had to do to get us out, and It was going to hurt me more than it would hurt her. I even contemplated not doing it and just staying here, with her… But the Keepers couldn't be so kind as to leave her be. My plan was here, the time to execute was now, and I forced her to take us back with her. I didn't save her when she arrived, just to allow my fucking feelings to get in the way. Guilt flooded my chest when I manipulated her. It flooded my chest again when my brother shoved a flaming hot Angel blade right through her… What did I do? Oh, yea… I left her there to bleed out… And now that I've ruined any chance I ever could have had with the little Human… I'm going to open Pandora's Box and unleash hell onto this world. If I have to hurt, so does everyone else.
