The Choice

"We have that one rule in business, Lady. At iyon ang makasal ang babaeng tagapagmana bago makuha ang buong kapangyarihang pamahalaan ang kompaniya." Kailangang maikasal ni Infinity bago makuha ang pamamahala sa kompaniya ng kaniyang ama. Subalit paano siyang magpapakasal kung No Boyfriend Since Birth ang peg niya? The answer to her problem is to hire a husband—lalaking papasa para maging kabiyak ng buhay niya. Then this man came from nowhere—lalaking sobrang ingay, na siyang kinaiiritahan niya dahil gusto niya ng tahimik na buhay. Tatanggapin niya ang makasal kahit walang pagmamahal, ngunit hindi kay Teranusjulio 'Ranus' del Prado. Hindi kailanman! For Pete's sake! Ayaw niyang matetano sa lalaking iyon! But does she have a choice? Pipili pa ba siya ng iba kung ang binata na mismo ang nag-aalok sa sarili nito? Afterall, Teranus is a good choice; guwapo, matipuno, at matalino. At higit sa lahat, handa itong sumunod sa lahat ng ipag-uutos niya. Ngunit paano kung ang paglapit nito sa kaniya ay isang malaking palabas lamang pala? Mapapatawad ba niya ang binata sa ginawa nitong pagpapaikot sa puso niya?

Imagine you are given two choices. Choice #1 gives you a stable life with little to no uncertainties. You can have a comfortable existence but you may never experience the thrill of falling in love or the satisfaction of taking that leap into the unknown. Choice #2 gives you all the thrills and all the satisfaction but you also have the possibility of heartbreak and failures along the way. Which would you choose? For Aurora Butler, this is the exact crossroads she has come to as she starts her Senior Year at a new school. Her head is telling her one thing but after meeting Owen Marshall, her heart is telling her something entirely different. Choices are made even more difficult as responsibilities take a toll on her and she realizes some choices requires sacrifices she just isn't able to make. Just when she thinks she has it all figured out, bodies of young women who look eerily similar to her start showing up as the town realizes there is a serial killer walking among them, one who has particular tastes when it comes to his next victim. Will Aurora's instincts lead to the right choices or will her choices have deadly consequences? Can she survive to have it all or will she lose everything in the end?
