Tatlong dekada na ang lumipas mula nang brutal na pinaslang ang bagong kasal na sina Lorenzo at Clara sa loob ng Mansyon de Montessori. Sa pagdaan ng panahon, patuloy ang pagpanaw ng sinumang sumusubok tuklasin ang madilim na lihim ng mansyon-kasama na rito ang mga magulang ni Elisa Montessori. Sa kabila ng babala ng kanyang lola, si Elisa at ang anim niyang kaibigan ay nagpunta sa mansyon para sa isang adventure. Ngunit ang inaakalang simpleng lakad ay nauwi sa bangungot. Isa-isa silang nilalapitan ng kamatayan-hindi lang ng mga multo, kundi ng isang mamamatay-taong nagtatago sa dilim. Habang lumalala ang sitwasyon, isa sa kanila ang pinaghihinalaang killer-si Kenjie, ang tahimik at misteryosong kaibigan ni Elisa. Maniniwala ba siya sa nararamdaman niya, o patuloy itong ipaglalaban kahit sa mga patunay na unti-unting lumalabas? Sa pagitan ng buhay at kamatayan, katotohanan at panlilinlang, kailangang harapin ni Elisa ang pinakamasakit na rebelasyon: na ang sikreto ng mansyon ay mas malapit sa kanya kaysa sa kanyang inaakala. Some secrets stay buried. Some come back... to kill.

Asher was just an ordinary young man when a powerful politician destroyed his family, leaving him alone-until a kind-hearted leader, Dela Vega, took him in and became his mentor. When Dela Vega runs for president, he is tragically assassinated by his longtime enemy-Mr. Tuazon, the same man who killed Asher's parents-leaving Asher with an unimaginable responsibility: to take over his mentor's position. At first, Asher hesitates. At just 27, he doubts his ability to lead, but the thought of letting Mr. Tuazon seize power leaves him with no choice. With determination and a promise to be a good leader, Asher steps into the role, fully aware that the weight of the nation now rests on his shoulders. As a young and reluctant president, Asher must navigate a web of corruption, political enemies, and dangerous conspiracies-all while learning that courage, integrity, and determination can emerge from the most unexpected leaders.

Every June, beneath the enchanting glow of the strawberry moon, the moon goddess Mayari is said to grant the heart's deepest desires-yet every wish comes with a hidden price. Celene, a loner fine arts student burdened by loss and solitude make a wish: to feel happiness, even for a fleeting moment, even in a world beyond her own. That fateful night, as the moon bathes her window in crimson light, her plea is answered. She awakens not in the modern world she knows, but in the ancient Philippines-a realm of proud warriors, powerful rulers, and sacred traditions. There, she is adopted by kind villagers and given a new name-Agnaya. As she learns to carve a place in this unfamiliar world, her path crosses with Prince Hilan, the formidable son of the Lakan. What begins as a clash of wills slowly blossoms into a bond neither of them can deny. But the closer Celene draws to him, the more she feels the weight of her wish. The happiness she found beneath the strawberry moon is radiant yet fleeting-and even the strongest love cannot escape the passage of time. Can an ancient love survive once the moonlight fades?

After a tragic car crash, famous actor Dreiven Sandoval is declared dead at the hospital. But to the shock of his grieving parents, he suddenly wakes up in the morgue-alive, breathing, and eerily calm. What appears to be a miracle soon reveals itself as something far more disturbing. Unknown to the world, a dark and vengeful spirit has taken over Dreiven's body-a soul with a violent past and unfinished business. He resumes Dreiven's life in the public eye with ease, mimicking his mannerisms, speaking his words, and smiling his smile. But beneath the facade, he is driven by a singular obsession: Ylarah Flores. Ylarah is a production assistant quietly trying to rebuild her life after years of suppressing trauma. At six years old, she was the sole survivor of a brutal family massacre-left alive by the same man who now wears Dreiven's face. When she meets him again on set, memories buried in blood begin to resurface. Though she tells herself it's impossible, Ylarah starts to recognize the look in his eyes, the way he speaks to her, the shadow that follows him. And while she tries to keep her distance, an unexplainable pull draws her back toward him. What begins as suspicion spirals into psychological warfare. Dreiven becomes increasingly fixated on her. He watches. He follows. He kills-but never her. Ylarah is the only person he refuses to harm. The only one he desires. As her fear grows, so does her confusion. Despite everything, part of her feels connected to him in a way she can't explain. And the more she tries to escape, the more tangled she becomes in a web of obsession, guilt, and twisted affection. Now, Ylarah must confront the truth: The man she's drawn to is the same one who destroyed her life. Can you love the monster who destroyed you... if he's the only one who ever truly sees you? 🔪 The Killer's Desire | Marie_Tales Horror | Supernatural | Psychological thriller | Dark Romance
