Ayon kay Lao Tzu, a Chinese philosopher, be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you—na siyang isinasabuhay ko. I only have my mother and my two friends, Charlynn and Reisha. My mother works for Charlynn's family. We are not really poor and definitely we're also not rich but we're living comfortably. Nevertheless, I am contented with my life. But, after meeting the man that I like, I started to dream for more. I started to ask for more just to equal his riches even though I know for sure that it was impossible. Life is meaningful. Full of life lessons, full of challenges, and battles that you need to surpass. Pero no'ng nawala sa akin si Mama, iyon ang hindi ko kinaya. Sinisi ko sa lahat ang pagkawala niya. Nagtanim ako ng galit sa pamilya na tinuturing kong pangalawa kong pamilya. And he was there, just accepting my madness. But, what if everything that I believed was all a lie? Paano kung lahat ng sinisi ko, maling tao? Would I be able to get to his life again? Or our memory will remain just like how we first met? Dark.

Although Rome said nothing, his blood was boiling with rage and thirst for revenge. “I'll be back,” Rome said.

Lesley Hummer, my husband's sister, lies to me about being unable to conceive. She wants me to help her produce a child. To my shock and horror, my husband and mother-in-law agree with her! I refuse to give in, so they drug me and force me into bed with my her husband. When the pregnancy comes to term, I give birth to a daughter. My husband and his family go nuts because it's not a boy.

My fiancée steals my designs to help her senior win a competition. She's not ashamed in the slightest when I confront her. "You're talented, so you can come up with a new design in an instant. This competition means a lot to Avery, so stop being so petty." I drop out of the competition and head home to inherit the family fortune. That's when my fiancée panics. "Don't be so unreasonable, Yarrow. Design is your life's dream and the only thing you want to do. How can you give up on it so easily?" Her senior panics, too. "This design is the product of your blood, sweat, and tears. Can you bear to give up on it at this juncture?" I hang up, unmoved by their words. My fiancée doesn't know that her family's company is the one handling the blueprints for my design. I can't wait to see how her senior is going to handle the situation without my help.

I'm undressed and bound to a testing table when my family comes to pick me up. A thick, sharp needle pierces into my neck. A drug is administered into my blood, and the pain almost makes me lose consciousness. Behind me, I can feel a man's cold hands stroking my skin amorously. Before me, several people are staring at me. They point at me and treat me like an educational instrument. I tremble in fear and curl up on the testing table in pain. Three years ago, my brother sent me to Mykorra's war zone to stand up for Yvette Sanders. Those were the three most insulting and torturous years of my life. They burned away my hope for kinship but not my desire for survival. As the hands roam lower on my body, I bite my lip so hard that I almost draw blood. As the hands start to go overboard, someone knocks on the door. "Wendy Sanders, your brother is here for you."

Hindi akalain ni Adela na masisira ang buhay niya nang isang gabi lang dahil sa pagpinagkakatiwalaan niyang kaibigan. AT ang masalimuot na gabing iyon ay ang gabing makikila niya si Desmond Kyle Aviel Monarco ang kinatatakutan at pinaka makapangyarihan sa larangan nang negosyo at isa sa mga mayayamang tao. pilit niyang kinakalimutan ito, kahit halos gabi gabi itong bumabalik sa mga alaala niya, Ngunit paano niya gagawin iyon kung kahit saan siya magpunta ay nagkikita sila, Sa bawat pagkikita nila ay sinusunggaban siya nang halik, mga halik na lalong nagpapgagulo sa puso at isipan niya, sa bawat haplos nito ang nagpapadingas nuoh ng init ng katawan niya. Inaangkin siyang pag aari nito, pilit man niya na iwasan ito ay lagi siya nitong nahahanap. "Where do you think your going baby hmmm" Saad niya sa akin na ikinaatras ko, madilim ang mga mata nitong nakatitig sa akin, umiigting ang tulisan nitong mga panga. "K-Kailangan ko nang bumalik sa trabaho ko" Sagot ko rito na ikinaatras ko na lalo naman nitong ikinalapit sa akin. "Are you avoiding me?" Madiin niyang saad sa akin na ikinaatras ko pa, malamig na pader na ang naramdaman ko sa likod ko. Itinokod nito ang isang kamay nito sa pader sa gilid ko, langhap na langhap ko ang pabango at amoy nitong alak sa bibig niya. Bago pa ako makapagreact ay sinunggaban niya agad ako nang halik, may dahas ang bawat halik niya pilit niyang ipinapasok roon ang dila niya sa bibig ko na napagtagumpayan niya. "Hmmmppp" daing ko na pilit siyang tinutulak, pinakawalan niya ang labi ko, hingal na hingal kami dahil sa halik "Don't you ever try to avoiding me or else i'll make you cry harder, screaming and begging like no mercy" madiin niyan sabi sa akin,na iniwan akong tulala at may kaba.
