The Weekend Away

Alyra “Alya” Lucrezia is a woman who lives a quiet life while preparing herself to serve God. Lumaki siya na may matibay na pananampalataya, kaya naniniwala si Alya na ang tunay na kapayapaan ay makikita lang sa debosyon at sakripisyo. Sinusubukan niyang lumayo sa ingay ng mundo. However, everything changes when a powerful and wealthy man, Cameron Villareal, enters her life. Cameron is known for his influence, money, and dangerous charm. Sa unang pagkakataon pa lang na makita siya ni Alya, nagsimulang magulo ang tahimik na buhay na pinaghirapan niyang buuin. Unknown to the people around them, Alya and Cameron share a painful past. One filled with secrets, mistakes, and a desire they both tried to escape. Alya ran away months ago to leave that life behind and to protect herself from the chaos Cameron brings. Pero si Cameron ay hindi ang tipo ng lalaki na basta nalang hinahayaan ang mga bagay na matapos nang walang kasagutan. What they share is not simple love, it is a mix of anger, longing, temptation, and guilt. Habang patuloy na nagkakasalubong ang kanilang mga landas, napapagitnaan si Alya sa dalawang mundo: ang pangako niya sa Diyos at ang malakas na paghila ng damdamin niya kay Cameron. Habang pilit siyang ibinabalik ni Cameron sa buhay nito, nahihirapan si Alya na protektahan ang kanyang puso, and the fragile peace she fought so hard to find. In a story filled with secrets, temptation, and emotional battles, Alya must face the hardest question of her life: Will she remain faithful to the life she chose, or will she fall again into the dangerous desire she once tried to escape? Because sometimes, the greatest sin is not breaking the rules— but loving the one person you were never meant to love.

Travis Villaflor does not lose. In business, he conquers. In life, he dominates. With godlike beauty, ruthless intelligence, and power that bends men twice his size, he has built an empire where everything and everyone falls into place exactly as he commands. And he belongs to Cathyrine Reva. At least, that is the lie he has repeated for years. Because there was once a boy. Raine Montemayor. Fifteen years of age. Soft-eyed and devoted. Recklessly in love. A boy who trembled but still offered everything. His body, his heart, his soul. And the confession, it terrified him. So he crushed it. “I’m straight,” he said coldly. “I only see you as a brother.” And just like that, he destroyed the only person who had ever looked at him as if he were something more than a god. Raine left for Canada soon after. Travis thought distance would erase the memory. Well, it didn’t. Years later, Raine returns. But the boy Travis rejected is gone. The man who steps off the plane is controlled and polished. Sinfully beautiful. His smile no longer innocent, but knowing. His presence no longer pleading, but commanding. Raine no longer looks like he belongs to him. And that is unacceptable. He has a girlfriend, a reputation and a name built on control. Yet every time Raine turns away from him… every time someone else dares to touch him… Jealousy tastes like blood in his mouth. He wants to drag him close. Mark him. Remind him. “You think you’ve outgrown me?” Travis murmurs one night, voice low and dangerous. “You think you can come back here and pretend I don’t own every part of you? You're wrong baby. You're mine, only mine. Even your brothers can do nothing about it. I possess you.

Juliana has everything that money could buy, at hindi kasama doon ang pagmamahal ng isang magulang. Her mother made sure of that the day she married her stepfather, a man twice her age, in exchange for wealth and status. Kaya naman nang mabalitaan niyang nasawi ang mga ito sa isang aksidente, wala siyang naramdaman na kahit ano. Ni isang patak ng luha ay walang tumulo mula sa kanya. She already lost to money the only family she had, kaya hindi na bago sa kanya 'to. For sure, after going through their burial, she would be back at the all-girls boarding school they sent her away to, and everything would stay the same. But just when she thought that nothing would ever change, nalaman niya ang laman ng last will ng kanyang ina. To claim her inheritance, kailangan niyang tumira sa iisang bubong kasama ang kanyang stepbrother, her stepfather’s only child from his first wife, until she turns 21 years old. Ang problema? She just turned nineteen a week ago before their accident! Dalawang taon niyang kailangang magtiis sa poder ng taong pinaka-ayaw niya sa lahat. At ang mas malaking problema? Their state, the mansion where her stepbrother currently resides, is far from the city and the life that she’s used to! It’s in a secluded area in a remote province! What would her life be like from now on? Hindi puwede ‘to! Mamamatay muna siya bago siya tumira kasama ang lalaking ‘yon na masahol pa sa demonyo ang ugali! But between hatred, lies, and the forbidden tension she couldn’t name, matutuklasan ni Juliana na may mga bagay na hindi kanyang diktahan, lalo na ang puso. — THIS BOOK CONTAINS MATURE THEMES, EXPLICIT SEXUAL CONTENT, AND SCENES THAT MAY BE DISTURBING OR TRIGGERING TO SOME READERS.

“Anastasia, ready?” Seryoso kong tinignan ang manager ko na siyang bumanggit sa pangalan ko. “Always,” tipid kong sagot sa kanya. Kinuha ko ang lipstick sa table. It’s a bold red lipstick, my signature. Mas masarap halikan kapag ganito ka pula ang labi ko. “Remember, no fighting with the clients okay?” bilin nito sa akin. Bahagya akong ngumisi sa sinabi nito sa akin. Hindi ko ito sinagot, minsan na akong nakipag away sa mga kliyente dahil sa mga pina pagawa nila sa akin na hindi ko gusto. “Anyway, your client is a big time billionaire,” sagot nito sa akin habang humi hipak sa sigarilyong hawak niya. Dahan dahan akong tumayo, ang pag iingay ng mga perlas at alahas na naka kabit sa kasuotan ko ay nag ingay, kaya naman nakuha nito ang atensyon ng mga kasamahan ko sa kwarto. Kita ko ang inggit at galit sa mga reaksyon nila pero ni isa sakanila ay wala akong pinaunlakan. Kinuha ko ang sigarilyo na nasa labi ng manager namin at ako ang humipak dito. “Who?” “Rocco Blackwood” Kusang huminto ang mundo ko nang ma rinig ko ang pangalan ng lalaking naikama ako noong nakaraang gabi sa isang high end bar. Bago pa ako maka tanggi ay na kita ko na agad ang lalaking may madilim na ekspresyon naka titig sa akin, as if he is staring at is prey, ready to devour me wholly, in bed. Rough and steamy, I found myself in bed with the ruthless Billionaire. Ang liyab ng pagnanasa na pinaparamdam niya sa akin na siyang nagpapa baliw sa akin sa tuwing nasa kama kaming dalawa.

Desperate to escape the heartbreak, umalis siya ng lungsod, determined to forget… kahit sa loob ng isang gabi lang. Pero hindi niya inakala na ang gabing iyon ay magbabago ng lahat, dahil doon niya nakilala ang lalaking hindi niya dapat gustuhin — Damien Garcia.

But obsession doesn’t care about rules… at ganoon din si Flora.

For five long years, Lyra Santiago believed love was enough. Kahit galing siya sa simpleng pamilya at ang fiancé niyang si Tristan ay anak ng isang business tycoon, hindi siya natinag. But on their wedding day, everything shattered—Tristan dumped her for a wealthier woman, in front of everyone, leaving her broken, humiliated, and wearing a wedding dress that mocked her pain. Walang direksiyon, umiiyak at wasak, she wandered into the night—only to meet a silent stranger in a wheelchair. His name was Elias Montero. Mysterious. Cold. Untouchable. And when he suddenly asked, “Will you marry me tonight?”—Lyra, driven by grief and impulse, said yes. What began as a reckless decision turned into something life—altering. Sa kanilang wedding night, Elias stunned her—standing up from his wheelchair, carrying her to bed with strength and dominance that contradicted everything she assumed.

BREE LEV. I thought it stands for something simple until I heard his deep soulful voice. A single hello was all it take for him to have my undivided attention. Akala ko hulog siya ng langit. Isang anghel na magsasalba sa akin. I was all wrong. He's a fallen angel with dark blue eyes and cold leather-covered hands. A man mantled with power and veiled with sin. We're opposites. I'm weird and a social butterfly. He's terrifying and brooding. A lone wolf. I love pinks and swirls. He prefers pointed knives and black guns. Darkness seems to be his fave companion and death his pastime. I, on the other hand, will always choose life. He told me to stay away from him. Guess, you know by now, that I did the exact opposite, right? I stayed 'cause I want him so bad, it hurts.

Broken and beyond repair. Twenty-four hours before her 18th birthday, nagbalik ako para bawiin s'ya. Twelve hours after I abduct her, we exchange I dos. Eight seconds after our first kiss, I know I will protect her with my gun and with my life. I, Lev Petrov, Heir to a fallen empire, vows to avenge Bree from all of the people that wronged her. It will be my life's mission until the last drop of my sinful blood...I will never let them rest in peace.
