Medical Series #1
Bloom Fiorenza Zamora is perfection carved in steel.
At Lunaria Prime Medical Center, an elite and highly secretive hospital in the Philippines, she is revered as a surgical prodigy and whispered about as a nightmare to work under. Her hands save lives with brutal precision, yet her words cut just as deeply. Ishara does not believe in rivals only in those who fall behind. To her, greatness is solitary, earned through control, sacrifice, and emotional detachment.
Everything changes when Golden Yvren Guerrero steps into her operating room.
Graduating as the undisputed top of her class, Golden begins her internship at Lunaria Prime under Bloom's direct supervision. Calm, observant, and irritatingly composed, Golden refuses to be shaken by Ishara's frostbitten stare or merciless standards. She challenges protocols, asks questions no one dares to ask, and carries a quiet brilliance that threatens to stand shoulder to shoulder with Bloom's own.
Their dynamic ignites instantly sharp glances beneath surgical lights, silent power struggles in sterile hallways, and tension that lingers long after shifts end. Ishara sees Golden as a threat to her dominance. Golden sees Ishara as a fortress built from fear, not strength.
As emergency nights stretch into dawn and lives are held between heartbeats, cracks begin to form. Beneath Ishara's cruelty is a woman terrified of being surpassed and of being seen. Beneath Golden's persistence is a heart steady enough to wait and bold enough to care.
In a place where emotions are considered weaknesses, can two women who mastered indifference learn to surrender to something as human as love? Or will ambition, pride, and fear destroy the one connection neither of them planned for?
Because sometimes, the most dangerous surgery is allowing someone to touch your heart.
