Pada hari kelahiran kembar, aku menyuap dokter keluarga dan menyuntikkan semua inihibitor persalinan kuat yang ada di rumah sakit untuk menunda persalinan. Alasannya karena di kehidupan sebelumnya, Vincent Kusuma didiagnosis dengan oligospermia. Demi punya penerus, Vincent sampai cari belasan selingkuhan di luar. Dia mengumumkan, siapa pun yang duluan melahirkan anak cowok, anak itulah yang akan jadi bos keluarga berikutnya. Katanya, asalkan aku duluan melahirkan, dia akan mengusir semua selingkuhannya dan membiarkan anakku menjadi pewaris Keluarga Kusuma. Aku memercayainya. Saat tahu aku hamil kembar, rasa haru dan senang yang sulit dikatakan membuatku gemetaran. Tapi setelah melahirkan, dia malah suruh orang mengurung aku dan bayi yang baru lahir ke dalam gudang anggur yang dingin dan melarang semua orang dekatin kami. “Lusi berasal dari keluarga sederhana. Aku cuman mau kasih anaknya status yang sah supaya masa depan mereka lebih baik. Tapi kau sengaja menyebarkan kabar itu, sampai dia keguguran karena putus asa. Akhirnya dia dan bayinya mati.” “Kau segitu kejam! Kau sama sekali nggak layak jadi ibu pewaris Keluarga Kusuma! Renungkanlah kesalahanmu! 3 hari lagi baru aku lepaskan kau dari sini!” Setelah selesai berbicara, Vincent suruh kepala pelayan kunci pintunya tanpa menyisakan lubang. Tapi, dia nggak tahu. Malam itu, gudang anggur kebakaran. Aku dan anak kembarku tewas terbakar. Pas aku buka mata lagi, ternyata aku kembali ke malam sebelum melahirkan. Di kehidupan yang baru ini, aku nggak mau jadi istri sah mafia lagi. Setelah anakku lahir dan tenagaku pulih, aku akan bawa anakku pergi jauh dari sini.

For ten years, I was Vincent's blood bag and his sharpest blade. I offered my rare blood to sustain his ancient power. I offered my loyalty to secure his throne as the Vampire Lord of this territory. I thought my devotion might earn me the eternal embrace of the turning. Instead, I received the announcement of his marriage to Lilith. A princess from a powerful European vampire clan. He said it was a necessary alliance. He said my blood was still precious. But when the sanctified silver tearing through the car,he used my body as a shield, to ensure his bride remained unblemished. That's when I knew. I was never his lover. I was just a consumable resource, a blood bag to be used and discarded. So, when I was ordered to become his blood servant under the title of his fiancée, I made a call to my father. “In seven days,” I said, my voice clear and final in the dark, “make the name Elena Rossi disappear from this city. From vampire’s world. Forever.” In seven days, when Vincent finds his precious living blood bank gone, he went insane. And this decade-long game of predator and prey… will have a new set of rules.

She’s loud. He’s cold. She believes in happy endings. He doesn’t believe in love at all. Sa mundo ng luxury, deadlines, at perfection, siya ang lalaking hindi marunong ngumiti. Cesar Araneta, 35, CEO ng Luxe Life Magazine, gwapo, matalino, at mayaman — pero kilalang pusong bato. Para sa kanya, ang feelings ay sagabal, at ang pag-ibig ay walang lugar sa success story niya.

Masayahin, palpak minsan, pero may tapang at puso.Hindi siya intimidated sa suplado niyang boss sa katunayan, crush pa nga niya ito simula pa college! Ngunit isang viral post ang gugulo sa tahimik na buhay ni Cesar. Ang “Heartless but Handsome Boss” article ni Gavine ay magpapainit hindi lang ng internet, kundi pati ng opisina ng Luxe Life. But when her “Heartless but Handsome” post goes viral, their worlds collide in the most chaotic, hilarious, and unexpectedly romantic way. Pero paano nga ba magtatagpo ang dalawang magkaibang mundo? Siya, mayaman, sikat, at sanay na lahat sumusunod. At siya, simpleng dalaga lang walang pangalan sa lipunan, pero may pusong kayang umintindi kahit sa pinaka-malamig na tao. “You called me heartless.” Can a cheerful nobody melts the heart of a man who thinks love is overrated? Maybe love isn’t overrated after all — maybe it just needed the right kind of disaster to begin.

“Tell me again,” he murmured, his bare chest a hot, dangerous brand against her back. His teeth grazed the shell of her ear, making her shudder. “How you want me to treat you.” She clutched the silk sheets, dragging them up to her chin, hating the tremor in her voice. “I—I want you to be professional.” A low, dark laugh ghosted over her damp skin. “Then stop looking at me like that.” His amused, arctic-blue eyes held hers captive in the bedroom mirror. She squeezed her eyes shut, wondering what in the world she’d gotten herself into. ^ ^ ^ Isabella Rossi’s life shattered when she discovered her boyfriend’s affair with her best friend, Chloe. The happy couple were even expecting a baby, and she was supposed to be happy for them. Hah. Heartbreak was just the beginning. Drunk and deceived, she woke up in the bed of a powerful, enigmatic stranger—Vincent Sinclair. She thought it was a one-time, humiliating mistake. A secret she would bury forever.

Flustered but confident, she met his eyes. Men like him didn’t remember girls like her. She was sure of it. He was most likely just an entitled playboy and the faces in his bed probably blurred. But oh, how wrong she was. Vincent Sinclair remembered everything. Finding his "one-night stand" playing the part of a forgettable employee was his new favorite amusement. First, he made her his personal secretary. Then, he made her life a living, tempting hell. Finally, he served her a contract. Not for a raise—for marriage. It was absurd. But with her life in shambles and his offer too lucrative, Isabella signed.
