The Duke And I

I longed for a quiet and peaceful life. But everything changed when my family got into debt with the man who would make my life miserable! I sacrificed my own happiness just to keep my father out of jail. Mr. Rodriguez demanded a heavy price from me, and even though it was painful, I accepted it just to pay off my family's debt.

Sino siya? Will, siya lang naman ang lalaking nagpabaliw sa akin ng ganito. Kilala nila ako bilang isang inosenteng babae and that's true. Ayaw kong makarinig ng mga malalaswang bagay galing sa kahit sino.. kahit sa best friend ko na kilalang playgirl. Pero noong nakilala ko siya, doon ko natutunan lahat ang natutunan ng best friend ko. Halos lahat ng bagay binigyan ko ng meaning. Naging dirty minded ako dahil sa kanya. Pero iyun ang gusto ko, iyung ang ginusto ko, doon ko siya nakilala so bakit ako mag pabebe? Mahal ko siya at hindi ako mag rereklamo kong ano man ang nagawa niya sa akin. Masaya ako dahil sa kanya ko natutunan lahat. I don't care what they say. I don't care if magagalit ang best friend ko. Pero hindi siya nagalit sa akin kundi sa lalaking mahal ko. Super protective and that's fine with me. Until everyone's know. I'm a model and he's a billionaire. They say, hindi ako nababagay sa kanya. They say, hihilain ko lang siya pababa. Hindi ako kagaya ng best friend ko na palaban. I'm sensitive so after hearing those words from his supporters, it's hurt a lot and I left him. Yes, I left him for my peace of mind. I don't deserve him. Ang bilis ko lang siyang iwan. Deserve niya ang babaeng hindi siya iiwan para sa sarili niya, gaya ng ginawa ko. But can I stay? Why? Cause I love him.

Dalawang puso ang nakagapos na naaayin sa kagustuhan ng bawat isa. Thr thread can start to deepen or loosen and it's up to their descision. Ag sa bawat giit ng puso ay tila may binubulong, sa bawat katotohanan ay tila may nakatagong sekreto at sa bawat puso ay may nakamarkang pangalan ng nagmamay-ari rito. Ngunit paano mo mamahalin ang taong sumira at nagnakaw ng iyong karapatan? Paano mo itatama ang lahat kung una pa lang ay nagsimula ang kwento sa pagpapanggap at kasinungalingan? Hahayaan niya pa rin bang igapos siya ulit ng tadhana kasama ang lalaking kinamumuhian kahit na madaming rason para putulin iyon? Ngunit sa kagustuhan na pigilan ang sariling makulong muli ay hindi lang puso at katawan niya ang kalaban kundi pati na rin ang mapaglarong puso ng lalaking tinuturing niyang demonyo. "You smell nice Dawn, I don't care if you ars afraid of me but one thing is for sure, kailangan mong itatak diyan sa isip mo na I won't let you run away without having the thrill of having you and tasting you first,"— Flix Montero "I do prefer being tainted ang madumihan ng pauli-ulit ay sadyang nagbibigay ng kakaibang ligata sa akin and I won't let myself fall again for I know I won't ve love the way I like and expect it to be. Because happy endings are only for women that worth to fight for and I am not one,"—Dawn Mathison

Defending Mr. Billionaire || R-18+ When can we say that a person is worth defending? When he is already accused? When he already received a death threat? When he has money? When he's already dead? Ako, hindi ko alam. All I know is that I don't care about him. I don't care about that freakin' billionaire. Even if they made me his lawyer, I will not and will never defend him. Hindi ko gagamitin ang aking propesyon bilang isang abogado para lang ipagtanggol ang isang siraulong katulad niya. Pero kung para sa kapatid ko naman, ibang usapan na 'yan. Kapag natapos ang kaso na 'to ay magkakahiwalay na rin kami ni Anthony at pipilitin kong hindi na siya makita muli. I just need this one-time big-time chance for my brother. Pero paano kung magbago ang lahat? Paano kung ma-realize ko na mahal ko pa pala siya? Paano kung sa huli ay kami pa rin pala para sa isa't isa? "When will I start defending you, Mr. Billionaire?"

Nagtaksil sa akin ang taong pinili kong mahalin—ang aking asawa—at ang matalik kong kaibigan. Sinasabi ng lahat, ngunit nagbulag-bulagan ako. Pinili kong manahimik at maniwala sa kasinungalingan. Ang katigasan ng ulo kong iyon ang naging kapalit ng aking buhay. At sa huli, inangkin nila ang lahat ng aking pinaghirapan at iniwan. Ngunit hindi doon nagtapos ang aking kwento. Binigyan ako ng tadhana ng panibagong buhay—isang pagkakataong wala na ang dating saya, ngunit puno ng iisang layunin: paghihiganti. Sa bagong buhay na ito, mas pinili kong lapitan ang kanyang pinsan—isang ruthless businessman. Mas pinili kong danasin kung ano man ang bago kong kapalaran sa kamay ng kanyang pinsan na iniiwasan niyang maging katunggali sa anumang bagay. "What are you doing with my condoms?" "Bakit ka nandito? Akala ko ba ayaw mong makisama sa akin sa iisang kwarto? Saka pwede ba, magdamit ka!" “It’s my room, so I can do whatever I want. I’ll sleep without clothes, I’ll walk around however I like… and if you happen to look at my body, I won’t stop you. After all…I'm your husband.”

Forgiving someone who destroys us is one of the hardest things to do in this world. Forgiving someone requires a lot of courage and time, as well as healing from your painful past. Madaling sabihin ang salitang "I'm sorry" pero mahirap ito tanggapin lalo pa't binugbog ka ng sakit. Kakayanin mo bang magpatawad sa kabila ng mga masasakit na pangyayari sa buhay mo? O susuko ka na lamang at maghihintay sa paglaho mo? I am Anna Lucia Veranda, a student, a not-so-obedient daughter, and a girlfriend of Santrius Mikael Aquino. Are you willing to witness how I will face all my catastrophes in life after losing everything I have?
