She vowed she would never be a homewrecker like her, but when she finds out she's having a love child of her own, the apple doesn't really fall far from the tree... *** Camille is barely making ends meet--taking on odd jobs here and there just to feed herself, and one of them is to dance in front of four men at a bachelor's party. But then she wakes up tangled in the sheets with Tristan de la Cuesta, esteemed doctor and heir to the dela Cuesta hospital, and finds out a few months later that she's pregnant with his child. The problem? He's engaged and getting married to his longtime girlfriend. While Tristan is willing to take responsibility for the child and conveniently, his engagement is called off, Camille can't shake off the guilt of ruining his relationship. She can raise and love their child without loving the father...right? DISCLAIMER: This story is written in Taglish, a combination of Tagalog & English COVER DESIGN: Regina Dionela

Para kay Hezira ay isang kathang-isip lamang ang mga bampira. Hindi siya kailanman naging interesado sa mga ito. Pero lahat ay nagbago matapos ang isang madugong gabi nang paslangin ng mga nilalang na 'yon ang nag-iisa niyang pamilya--- ang kanyang ina. Paghihinagpis at ang nais na makapag higanti ang nag-udyok sa kanya para isugal ang buhay at pumasok sa mundo ng mga naiibang nilalang. Alam niyang hindi siya kailanman nabibilang sa mga bampira ngunit paano niya malalabanan ang pangungulila na pinunan ng mga ito? Paano kung sa kanila niya naramdaman ang pagmamahal ng pamilya na kailanman ay hindi na niya mararamdaman pa? Handa ba niyang talikuran ang tanging pakay at tanggapin ang pagmamahal ng mga ito o tatalikuran niya ang mga ito at susundin kung ano talaga ang pakay niya?
