The Ryuo's Work Is Never Done

Isa akong stripper o sa madaling salita, tagabigay ng ligaya sa mga lalaking nagnanais ng mainit na sandali tuwing gabi. Ngunit nagbago ang lahat nang makilala ko ang kliyente kong Zander Almeda. Isang flash lamang ng kamera nang magbago ang buhay ko at naging instant hot issue sa social media. At sa isang iglap, ang stripper na katulad ko ay naging instant girlfriend ng isang bilyonaryong CEO na si Zander Almeda sa bisa ng agreement na magkukunwari ako sa harap ng mga taong nakapaligid sa kanya. Ngunit paano ko mapipigilan ang puso ko kung mahulog na ng tuluyan ang loob ko sa kanya? Paano kung malaman ng lahat ng tao na isa akong dating tapagbigay ng ligaya sa mga lalaki sa isang club? Kaya niya ba akong ipaglaban?

Isang kasal na nakatali sa papel. Isang kasunduan na may hangganan. At isang gabi na hindi dapat nangyari. Pitong taon na si Vaiana bilang secretary ni Kyro, at sa loob ng tatlong taon, si Vaiana ay naging anino ni Kyro de Vera—sekretarya sa umaga, asawa sa papel sa gabi. Alam niya ang lahat ng ugali nito, mula sa paboritong kulay ng suit hanggang sa mga lihim na hindi nito kailanman inamin. Pero isang gabing hindi niya matandaan ang tuluyang gumulo sa lahat. Nang magising siya sa tabi ng lalaking hindi dapat kanya, ramdam niya ang pait ng katotohanan—siya lang ang nagseryoso sa kasal na ito. Pero nang muli siyang harapin ni Kyro, may isang bagay itong sinabi na nagpayanig sa kanya: "Vaiana, ang babaeng kasama ko kagabi… ikaw ‘yon." Sa isang kasunduang dapat ay walang damdamin, paano kung hindi na niya kayang itanggi ang sakit? At paano kung si Kyro mismo ang magsimulang magtanong—sino nga ba ang tunay niyang babae?

But one night, standing in front of his house's porch on what appears to be the most crucial question to him that turned everything he thought upside down. But, no matter what questions they ask, a dead girl can never answer for herself.

Mia comes back from school abroad to find out that her sister is already in a relationship, which is surprising because Davina was not the type to do that. Even more surprising was the fact that she had traveled to find her mate, and used it as an opportunity to school, only to be presented with her mate as Davina’s new guy. Her mother who ran a fancy restaurant and had a new romantic relationship herself, was too busy and already too involved in Davina’s life to face Mia’s completely. Ethan did not regard Mia at first, even after noticing who she was, but oh well, what happens next?

On the night of the Silvermoon Festival, the entire Black Forest pack is bathed in the light of the Moon Goddess. I'm about to share the spectacle with Kaelen through the mind-link, but then I spot a familiar figure. Kaelen Payne, my Alpha and fated mate, is holding a she-wolf in his arms. She tilts her face up to him, her voice edged with challenge. "Kaelen, prove I'm not just a secret. Mark me." My blood seems to freeze as I hear Kaelen murmur his agreement before pressing his mouth to hers. My wolf lets out a painful howl inside me. Just an hour ago, Kaelen's voice had come through the mind-link, "My Luna, I wish I could see the festival too, but there's an emergency at the border. Don't forget to share it with me through the mind-link." My fingertips turn cold, and I instinctively reach for him through the mind-link.
