Demian Ford Alcoceasar could never understand why his parents were so insistent on the Santos family's marriage proposal, no matter how many times he turned it down. The truth only became clear when they introduced him to Vito Mikhail Fernandez, the commander and founder of the North East Security Company, the man entrusted to protect them from the organization that wanted them dead. With Vito's protection, Demian and his family vanished from the public eye, forced into hiding on a secluded island where they had to adapt to a life they had never known. Each passing day blurred into shades of gray and blue, until Demian found his heart drawn to the one man he never thought it would choose. He was falling for the commander, a man older in years yet stronger than anyone he had ever met. But can love truly flourish when born out of darkness and desperation? Or is it nothing more than a fragile bond of survival on the island? DISCLAIMER: This is written in Tagalog and English.
