It was never supposed to be painful and depressing. A stupid mistake she knows that. After all, Jude Murray was her boss, and falling in love with him wasn't in her job description. But can they blame her? A little moth-like her couldn't stay away from fire even if it burns. And so their journey begins. Mary Jane Austen, the assistant secretary of the cold billionaire. One mistake, she left him for good. However, two years later they met again. “... You, you hurt me Jude. You made me look so small with all that whore you f*ck inside your office while I was just a foot away from your door...you! You are a heartless assh*le who didn't even realized that I was hurting.” Saad niyang nagpapahid na ng luha. “... How could you?” Sigaw niyang dagdag habang ang luha ay nag uunahang pumatak, na para bagang ilog na dumadaloy na lamang ng walang katapusan.

"Anong dahilan ito ng pakikipaghiwalay mo?" tanong ni Zeus kay Maureen, "hindi kita mapaligaya sa kama? anong kalokohan ito?" "Totoo naman, hindi mo ako mapaligaya sa kama. Uuwi ka ng bahay, matapos ang ilang linggo mong pagkawala, tapos, lalayasan mo ulit ako pagkatapos. Kaya tama yang nababasa mo, hindi mo nameet ang standards na gusto ko!" sagot ni Maureen sa lalaki. "Talaga ba? Ilan ang gusto mo? makapito tayo sa isang gabi? Sige, humanda ka sa akin pag uwi---" hindi na nito naituloy ang sinasabi dahil agad niya itong sinagot. "Sino namang may sabing uuwian pa kita? ano ako, baliw?" kaagad pinutol ni Maureen ang tawag na iyon. Alam niyang galit na galit ito sa kanya. Subalit pagod na siyang habulin ang lalaki, gayong ang trato nito sa kanya ay isang basura! Tapos na ang pagiging masunurin niyang asawa. Sinayang lang nito ang pagmamahal niya. Paglipas ng panahon, naging isa siyang successful na fashion designer. Napapalibutan na siya ng mga bata at gwapong kalalakihan. Madalas niyang nakakasalamuha sa mga events ang dati niyang asawa. Minsan, kinorner siya nito sa sulok saka hinalikan. "Maureen, mahalin mo ulit ako, please.." pakiusap nito. "Gaya ng dati. Handa akong magpaalipin sayo, balikan mo lang ako."

Herajeya and her friends were celebrating because she received a message from her aunt, who is a famous designer in Europe, saying that she's finally working as a professional designer. She was too drunk at that time so she went in to her hotel room to sleep soundly and peacefully. Dahil sa sobrang kalasingan ay nadarang siya sa mga haplos ng isang lalaking bigla nalang pumasok sa kwarto niya. She screamed that night, not with the pain but by pleasure. Iyon ang pinakaunang experience niya in sex sa isang lalaking hindi niya kilala, it was the first time she felt too much pleasure, but everything has changed when she found out that she was carrying that asshole’s kids. He called and mistook her as an prostitute and insulted her. He’s an asshole, a big jerk, a freaking womanizer, and he is the one who ruined her life. Kaya ipinangako niya sa sarili na hinding-hindi siya lalapit o magpapakitang muli dito. She is HIDING THE CEO’s HEIRS.

Dahil sa matinding sakit at kahihiyan na inabot ni Daniela sa hindi pagsipot sa araw ng kasal nila ng groom niyang si Drewner Ramsel, ang batam-batang CEO ng Ramsel Business Conglomerate ay kaagad siyang nagtungo sa ibang bansa. Doon niya ipinanganak ang mga naging bunga ng minsan nilang pagtatalik ng binata. Ngunit sa unang kaarawan ng kanilang kambal ay kinidnap siya kasama ang isa sa kambal.

May pag-asa pa bang madugtungan ang naudlot nilang kahapon lalo pa't may dalawang anak na sila at kambal pa?

I was the sole front desk clerk at a haunted hotel. Welcoming players, checking in on the bosses’ quarters, and slacking off a bit were all part of the job. At least, that was what I thought. It turned out my days were far from ordinary. A blood-drenched little girl in a tattered red dress kept ringing the service bell. Her eerie voice echoed, “Miss, why didn’t you come play with me?” A creepy black cat with glowing eyes wouldn’t stop meowing and rubbing against my legs. And then there was the old woman with claws like knives, cheerfully knitting me a sweater… out of players’ skin. One day, I took a day off to care for my sick mother. That was my biggest mistake. The entire game instance erupted in chaos. Bosses interrogated players, demanding to know where their precious front desk clerk had gone. “Did she abandon us? Is she never coming back?” I ran. They chased. But no matter how fast I fled, their grip on me only tightened. In the end, escape wasn’t an option.

More chaos when she finds out that the dark lord hated her and the peak was when she finds herself falling deeply for him.

((( Julius POV’s )))Napabangon ako dahil sa bungangang yun. Tinignan ko yung babae.“Huwag kang lalapit sa akin!” Bigla akong ngumit at natawa sa sarili ko. Kung gano'n ang babaeng 'to ay walang iba kundi si Janine.“Seems I have a “good” Morning. Good morning Janine.”Bigla akong pinaghahampas ng unan ni Janine. Ewan parang ang saya eh. Nakalapit ako sa kanya. Pinigilan ko ang kamay niya saka hinila ko siya palapit sa akin.“Bitiwan mo ako Julius!” Hinalikan ko siya sa noo. Natigilan siya sa kakapalag.“Now, your mine.” Saka ko siya hinalikan sa labi.Bakas sa mukha niya ang pagkagulat. Kaya bigla niya akong sinampal. Ngumiti lang ako bilang tugon...“I know. I deserve it.” At muli ko siyang hinalikan.“Julius! Gumising ka nga!” At pinagsasampal ako ni Janine, magkabilaang pisngi. Pinigilan ko ang kamay niya.“Gising na gising ako. Gusto mo pa?” Pak!Aww...yun ang masakit.“Di ako nakikipaglokohan sa'yo!” Ngumiti ako.“Sa tingin mo niloloko kita?”“Ahhhh....hmmm..” Hinalikan ko eh.At bago ako bumangon, hinalikan ko siya sa pisngi. Natulala siya.Bumangon na ako. Tinali ko ang robe ko at kinindatan siya bago ako pumunta ng banyo.Nang makapasok ako, narinig ko ang pagsisigaw ni Janine.Nakita ko naman ang refleksyon ko sa salamin. Ngiting-ngiti na napapailing. Naghilamos ako. Iniisip ko kung sino sa dalawang ama-amahan ko ang gumawa nito.
