“Gusto mo?” His voice was low, almost teasing, lazy yet dangerous. Sumiksik si Amanda sa kanyang dibdib, namumula ang mukha, nanginginig ang katawan habang umaatake ang kanyang kondisyon. She bit her lip, then nodded. Isang taon na siyang kasal kay Warren Garcia pero ni minsan, hindi siya hinawakan. A wife… who was never desired. Dahil doon, unti-unting nasira si Amanda. Tuwing aatake ang kanyang sakit, she loses control, trapped in a body longing for something she was never given. Until one night… nahuli niya ang asawa niya, kissing her sister’s photo.

Desperate, she goes to the hospital and meets a young, dangerously handsome doctor. But something goes wrong. Because that night, she almost crossed the line. And she didn’t even know his name. Kinabukasan, her world turns upside down.The same man is now the newly appointed CEO. Her boss. Her temptation. Trying to act like strangers, Amanda kept her distance but fate had other plans. Na-promote siya. Diretso sa tabi ng CEO. As his personal assistant. “Sir, may asawa na ako… are you trying to be the other man?” Namumula sa galit si Amanda habang napilitang mapaupo sa kandungan nito. He held her waist tighter. Then kissed her. “Baby… did you forget?” His voice dropped into a whisper. “Last night… you called me ‘husband’ all night.” In the end, Amanda walks away. No hesitation. No turning back. She remarries. Choose someone else. Chooses herself. But the man who never touched her, finally breaks. Namumula ang mata, puno ng pagsisisi.. “Amanda… let’s start over. Please, don’t leave me. I’ll do anything.” She looks at him cold, unfeeling. “Sorry.” A faint smile. “I’m not interested in a useless man.”

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.

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.

My eyes spontaneously moved to wander at the woman who looked so different compared to the other women. She's not that tall like the other young ones, I can see her good physique, slim, voluptuous and matured body like the models I see from magazines and televisions. The woman has a white and silky skin, long and black spiral curls hair that almost extended past to her waist. Nangingibabaw siya kumpara sa iba, nangingibabaw ang kulay ng balat niya, lalong lalo na ang kaniyang itsura kahit pa mayroong takip na face veil ang kalahati ng kaniyang mukha. I turned to a gay and motioned for him to come over to me. "Yes, Mr. Elizondo? How can I help you?" I pointed the woman before. "I want her." Tiningnan niya ang itinuro ko, nakita ko ang pangamba sa kaniyang mukha. "S-Si... Ana, sir...?" "Ana..." I mumbled. Such an angelic name but that body is wanting me to make a goddamn sin. "Yes, I want her. Maibibigay mo ba?" "I'm so sorry, sir. But you need to wait until the auction starts. And it is strictly forbidden to bring our women with—" "Who's her owner?" "Her Auntie, sir. Hawak siya ng Auntie niya at mukhang pinahihinog pa." "I'll talk to her," I uttered and searched for the woman again. She's looking at the crowd with her innocent eyes, with the sudden burst of her tears, the woman possessed with seducing regard. "I want her," pag uulit ko, mas mariin. "Ana..."
