Akala ni Dianna ay isa lamang na panaginip ang pakikipagtalik niya sa isang estranghero noong gabi ng kasal ng kanyang best friend na si Judith. Ngunit nagising na lamang siya na hubo't hubad habang katabi pa niya si Angelo De Leon. Nangyari ang lahat ng iyon sa mismong bahay ni Judith. Si Angelo De Leon ay ang mayabang at antipatikong lalaki na kinaiinisan niya dahil sa pilit nitong pag-angkin sa kapirasong lupa na minana pa ni Dianna sa kanyang mga magulang. Lapastangan talaga ang lalaki! Nang napagtanto ni Dianna ang lahat ay agad niyang nilisan ang lugar na 'yon at pinagdarasal na hindi na muling magkrus ang landas nilang dalawa. Ngunit ang kapusukan nila noong gabing iyon ay nagbunga ng hindi niya inaasahan. Nabuntis si Dianna. At kahit labag sa kalooban ni Dianna ay kailangan niyang tumira sa isang bahay na kasama si Angelo De Leon.

Madaling-araw na pero nasa deck pa rin ng pag-aaring yate si Renz Navarro, tired and bored to death. He had just made love to his current girlfriend and found no satisfaction. Nang mula sa kung saan, nakita niyang sumampa sa railings ng yate ang isang... babae! His yacht was more than a thousand yards away from Manila Bay. Ang magkaroon ng hindi inaasahang bisita mula sa madilim na karagatan sa ganoong oras ay bahagi lang ng pagkamangha niya. What took his breath away was the fact that the woman who climbed up to his deck was wearing nothing but seawater dripping down her body!

JSS was intrigued when he saw Sandra crying desperately in a semi-darkened office room. Namumugto ang mga mata at namumula ang ilong nito sa kakaiyak. At ang higit na nakakaintriga kay JSS ay hindi siya kilala ng dalaga. And for the life of him, he was there and coaxed her to pour out to him her problems. And on top of all that, inialok niya ang sarili sa dalaga bilang kahalili ng taksil nitong boyfriend. Subalit paano pakikibagayan ng isang tulad ni Sandra ang isang man of the world na tulad ni Jaime San Sebastian?

Sometimes, love could be easy and uncomplicated. Matagal nang gusto ng kanya-kanyang pamilya na magkatuluyan ang isang Punzalan at isang Soriano. Pero hindi iyon nabibigyang-katuparan dahil walang Punzalan at Soriano na nagkakagustuhan. Hanggang sa magkaharap muli ang kapwa brokenhearted na sina Mimi Punzalan at Mark Soriano. Pareho silang naglaan ng mahabang panahon at nag-invest ng pagmamahal sa mga taong hindi naman sila totoong minahal. Naisip ni Mimi, wala naman sigurong masama kung susubukan nila ni Mark na mahalin ang isa't isa. "Be my boyfriend, Mark," deretsahang sabi ni Mimi. Napamata sa kanya si Mark. "Pakiulit." "Let's be officially together. I'll be your girlfriend, you'll be my boyfriend. Subukan lang natin. Tingnan natin kung compatible tayo. Mukhang magkakasundo tayo nang husto. Guwapo ka, maganda ako. Heartbroken ka, heartbroken din ako. Iniwan ka, pinagtaksilan ako. We can heal each other. We can make each other happy." "Okay." Nagsalubong ang mga kilay ni Mimi. "Okay? Okay, let's just forget about it?" "No. Okay, let's be officially together. You'll be by girl, I'll be your man. We'll be devoted to each other. Only to each other." Magtatagumpay ba ang relasyong by choice at hindi nagsimula sa pagmamahalan? - guys, this is the unedited version, okay? patawarin po muna ako sa mga mali. happy reading! :)

HANNAH I've spent my entire twenty-one years on this earth in the background. Walked over by friends. Family. Strangers. And I didn't see a problem with it; I'd rather nobody pay attention to me. It was safer that way. Easier. Until I got the wrong kind of attention. Lev Somov caught me running from an impromptu crime I was committing against my ex-boyfriend, and in that moment, he somehow decided I was worth giving his attention to. All the bad kinds of attention. Next thing I know, he's watching over me, hijacking my job and becoming my client. And then he takes things above a level I never thought possible. He is a monster, incapable of feeling any type of remorse or guilt for anyone and anything, including me. All I can hope for is that I make it out of this obsession alive. LEV This life wasn't meant for me, but now that he's gone, it's mine for the taking. And no one is going to stop me. I've shown my loyalty through blood, and I make no plans to change my future. Especially not for the little kukolka I found stumbling into the wrong alleyway. I'll take my time before I break her. And then, the Dynasty will be mine.
