We Need

"Speaking, Mr. Thompson. What can I--" "I'm looking for my wife, Mr. Montevista. Is she with you, by any chance?" Hinaing nito sa kabilang linya dahilan para magngitngit nang galit lalo si Deiah sa narinig nitong salitang "wife" Ang lakas nga naman ng loob nitong tawagin siya nitong wife pagkatapos siyang pilitin nitong pirmahan ang papel na iyon. "Excuse me. Mawalang galang pero puwede bang piliin mo ang mga salita mo, Mr. Thompson. Ex-wife mo na ako ngayon. Hindi asawa." May diin sa tono ng pagkakasabi ni Deiah sa salitang "hindi asawa" habang ramdam niya ang pangangatog ng tuhod niya. Mas lumalakas na din ang kabog ng puso niya. "Totoo nga. Magkasama nga talaga kayo." Madiing sagot ni Primo, mahahalata sa boses nitong ang nagngingit nitong tono sa pagbitaw sa bawat salita. "Bakit hindi? Ikaw lang ba ang puwedeng humanap ng makakasama?" "Deiah!" Bulyaw ni Primo na halos hindi mapipinta ang mukha dahil sa madilim nitong awra. "I warn you, don't be hasty. Our divorce isn't finalized, we haven't received the certificate. Legally, you're still my wife. Consider the Thompson family's reputation and your dignity." Dagdag niya pang sabi kay Deiah.

Lumipat ang kaniyang kaluluwa sa asawa ng Mafia Boss na kung saan ay matagal nang nakakaranas ng paghihirap habang kasama ang asawa nito. Clyde Cleomonte, a 21 years old na kung saan ay pinakasalan ng sapilitan ni Silvia Kill na Mafia boss. "Hon, are you okay?", tanong ng babae saakin. Hon? Bakit niya ako tinatawag na Hon at bakit nandito ako sa hospital? Ang huli kong naaalala ay itinulak ako ni Blue, may tumulong ba saakin? "Nasaan sina Blue? Nakulong naba sila?", tanong ko sa mga lalaking nakaitim. I think mga pulis sila pero bakit hindi sila nakauniporme? "Whose blue? Hon, what happened back then?", tanong ulit ng babae. Bakit ba Hon ang palaging tawag niya sakin? Hindi ko naman siya kilala. Napatingin ako sa salamin na kung saan ay nasa side wall, I saw that this is not my face. Nanlaki ang mata ko sa gulat, anong nangyari sa mukha ko at sino sila. Lalapit na sana ang babae ng itinago ko ang katawan ko hanggang sa leeg ng kumot. "Stay right there!! Wah mokong lapitan", sigaw ko kaya napahinto naman siya at nag aalalang nakatingin saakin. "Do you- do you forget about me?", nauutal na sagot niya. Biglang may lumitaw na batang babae around 3 ata galing sa kaniyang likod. Nakatingin na siya saakin ngayon. "Mama?", tanong nito. Wait, naguguluhan na ako. Sino ba sila at bakit tinatawag akong Mama ng bata. "Hindi ko alam ang sinasabi niyo at wag mokong tinatawag na Mama!!" ,sigaw ko sa kanila. Biglang umiyak ang bata at nagpabuhat sa babae. Kinarga niya ito at nagdilim ang tingin nito saakin. Sino ba sila? I don't understand what's happening. Mama, i need you.

The choices we made would always have a massive impact on our lives. We may be hurt or feel happy about it. But as humans, as we are, there are times that we would be reckless, and instead of taking our time to think deeply, we would immediately jump into a situation not knowing the consequences ahead of us. I am Michelle Raye Castañares, the girl who made wrong choices and seeking a place where I can finally say that my choices are finally right.

Rimiera, an island which was surrounded by two villages,a city, and a province. The village of the ceruleans, known as the Ice Tavern, the kingdom of charmers, named Charm city, the Raven domain of colossians, where night never leaves and the province of Leviathans, also known as Levi’s forest. I am a Leviathan, they told is that we are the strongest race. In our race, I am the weakest... I have an Unseen allure, I became invisible. Father once told us that one of his children will become the strongest. I am unlike my sister, she has a Shadow allure ability, she's the only one who has that allure; usually Ravens have that skill. Anyways, months have passed in the middle of the night, when everyone was fast asleep we were attacked by Colossians and Ceruleans. In our race, my sister and I were the only ones who have fled. We thought we are safe, but we are wrong. We were chased down, my sister was killed. I continued running for my life, I promised myself if I live longer, I will protect Rimiera and punished the Colossians and Ceruleans. My tribe was almost wiped out, we were hunted because of their greed for power and also the Colossians would rule. You were salvaged by a City where everyone thought you were weak, but everything changed. Doubts were erased and soon you're carrying everything on your shoulders. To prevent another hunting season... But if they notice that I am still alive, another hunting season might happen. I will tell you my story on how I will overcome this issue, how my tribe was wiped out and how I and my friends recreate Rimiera. I am Dane, the Last Leviathan.

Nagkaroon ng malaking pagkakautang si Laica kay Hendrick Montañez nang ang binata ang gumawa ng paraan upang maisalba ang buhay ng kanyang nakababatang kapatid. Isang bagay iyon na wala siyang kaalam-alam. Ang tanging malinaw kay Laica ay ang pagkamuhing nadarama ni Hendrick para sa kanya dahil sa pag-aakalang mas pinili niya ang pera kaysa sa relasyon nilang dalawa. Lumipas ang maraming taon. Nang muling magkrus ang kanilang mga landas ay naniningil na ang binata sa malaking halagang nagastos nito para sa kapatid niya. But how can she ever pay him if what he wants is for her to... marry him? Would she agree knowing that what he's offering is nothing but a contract marriage? That she needs to be his wife just for business purposes? Or she would take his offer, not only to pay her debt, but because deep inside, she's hoping that he loves her still? "Magiging asawa lang kita sa papel, Laica. We'll stay married 'til I get the company. Once it's done, we'll have an annulment. Don't worry 'cause it would be easy since I don't have any plan to consume our marriage..."

BOOK 1: Seducing The Gay CEO BOOK 2: Akitin Ang Fiance Kong Tomboy We already witnessed the cute roller coaster love story of Zachary Villanueva and Gillian Guzman in SEDUCING THE GAY CEO. Pinatawa, pinasaya, at pinaiyak tayo ng STGC, finally the wait is over, mga ka STGC readers, let’s all welcome the story of their son, Earl Zach Villanueva. Earl Zach was now ready to make us feel the butterflies in our stomachs and set the standard. Earl Zach Villanueva, a.k.a. Zacky, is the eldest son of Zachary Villanueva. He gets almost everything he wants in life. At his young age, his father already trusted him with the whole company, but there was a private property island that he wanted to get, but he couldn't get it because it was owned by his dad's friend. So when his father's friend asked for help to let his daughter be engaged with him, he immediately agreed. Zacky doesn't believe in love, so it's not up to him to marry anyone. He has never seen his daughter because she grew up in the province, but the desire to get that island pushed him to do that. Arranging a marriage with that girl is easy, but he is so shocked and challenged at the same time when he hears something about that girl. The person who will be engaging with him is a tomboy. "Seduce her and make her a straight woman, and if you do that, the island you want from Palawan will be yours." Those are the words that his father's friend said to him. Makakaya kaya ni Zacky na gawing tunay na babae ang mapapangasawa niya na isang pusong lalake?

"I'm sorry Avry, let me explain.." Buong pusong pakiusap ko sa kanya. Nasasaktan ako. Ang sakit sakit. Bakit masakit? All of it is just part of the game. Make her fall in love with me yet ako ata ang nahulog ng malala. "Save it, Ice. I don't need it. Don't worry we're even. Hindi naman kita minahal." Bumalik ang walang emosyon niyang mukha. Bakit ganun? Parang mas masakit pa to kumpara sa lahat ng naging break ups ko? Ayaw ng tumigil ng mga luha ko.
