Where Did Goku Black Come From

Somewhere between staying silent and screaming for help… she existed. Seventeen-year-old Maren has mastered the art of disappearing in plain sight. Haunted by past trauma, locked in a toxic relationship she can't escape, and drowning under the pressure of school and a world that never cared to understand her, she begins to wonder if life is even worth staying for. No one sees her pain—until he does. The new boy, Kade, has his own shadows. He’s blunt, observant, and completely unafraid to call her out—making him an instant enemy. But when he overhears a moment no one was meant to witness, he realizes the truth: the girl everyone overlooks is barely holding on. As Kade steps deeper into her shattered world, their connection becomes a lifeline. But secrets run deeper than he imagined, and when Maren goes missing, no one believes she’s worth finding—except him. Fighting time, silence, and the lies that built her cage, Kade refuses to give up. Because sometimes, saving someone means proving they were never invisible at all. A heartbreaking, haunting, and ultimately hopeful story about survival, truth, and what it really means to be seen.

It had been ten years, and Ethan—my mate—and I still didn’t have a pup. One day, he suggested we adopt one from the Werewolf Orphan Charity Agency. “My mate,” he said gently, “pregnancy is too hard for you. You’d have to go through so many checkups and herbs. Your wolf shouldn’t have to suffer like that.” When others heard this, they all said Ethan loved me deeply—that he couldn’t bear to see me in pain. But I saw the truth with my own eyes. He took an infant pup from another she-wolf. “Luckily, Mia isn’t pregnant,” he said. “That way, the excuse of adopting an infant works—and the pup can have a legitimate status in my clan.” I knew that she-wolf well. The same one Ethan used to call a “stupid omega.” Swallowing the bitterness in my heart, I called my mentor at the Werewolf Research Academy. “I want to devote myself to herb research,” I said calmly. Three days from now, during the pup’s first New Moon blessing, I’ll fake my death in a fire. No one will be able to stop me.

Si Seraphina Velarde—isang masipag, maganda, at palaban sa buhay ay isang babaeng nahulog sa bawal na pag-ibig. Isa siyang kabit—isang relasyong lihim, isang pagmamahalang itinatago. Sa kabila ng init at atensyong natatanggap niya, nananatiling may kulang… sapagkat hanggang kailan siya magiging pangalawa? Hanggang kailan siya mamahalin sa dilim? Dahil kahit ilang ulit pa siyang angkinin sa mga gabing punong-puno ng pagnanasa, may isang alaala pa rin siyang hindi matakasan, isang gabing nangyari walong buwan na ang nakalipas. Isang one-night stand na punong-puno ng damdamin, init, at koneksyon. Hindi niya matandaan ang mukha ng lalaki, pero hindi niya malilimutan ang haplos. Ang gabing iyon ang nagbukas sa kanya sa tunay na sarap—ang klase ng sensasyong hindi niya muling naranasan. At ang lalaking iyon ay si Pierce Damien Saveedra—isang makapangyarihan, misteryoso, at hindi niya inaakalang muling papasok sa buhay niya. Sa bawat pagtatama ng kanilang mga mata, sa bawat paglapit, dama ni Seraphina na siya ang lalaking iyon—ang unang dumampi sa kanya, ang lalaking hindi lang nagpagising sa kanyang katawan kundi sa kanyang pagkatao. Si Pierce ang lalaking nagparamdam sa kanya ng pagmamahal na hindi palihim. Sa mga titig at haplos niya, ramdam ni Seraphina na hindi siya kailanman magiging pangalawa. Naramdaman nyang karapat-dapat din siyang mahalin ng buo, walang kahati, at walang limitasyon. Sa piling ni Pierce, unti-unti niyang natutuklasan kung ano ang ibig sabihin ng pagmamahal na totoo—yung hindi kailangang itago, hindi kailangang ipaglaban sa dilim… kundi isang pagmamahal na malaya, malinaw, at buong-buo.
