They say we should think before deciding. That we should weigh our words before speaking. Even when we're hurt, we should stay rational-careful not to leave guilt behind, eat our own words, or wound others. But what if they deserved it? Especially when their pain wrecked us to the brim? Spoiled, spoon-fed princess, and a hard-to-get woman. Ganyan daw ilarawan si Abegail. Fortunately, she doesn't give a damn about it. She had everything-wealth, power, and a last name that could bend anyone in the city to her will. To them, she was the spoon-fed princess, the untouchable queen who had the world at her feet. And honestly? They weren't wrong. Abegail Rye Monteverde didn't need anyone. Not when life was already served to her on a silver platter. But do they really know the whole story? Her standards were sky-high, and no guy ever made the cut... until him. Ezekiel Jairus Guerrero. That guy with a smile that could light up a room and a heart too good for the cruel world she lived in. He was everything her world wasn't-genuine, simple, real. And against all odds, he broke through her walls and made her believe in something she never thought she needed; love. But fate had other plans. In a world where power meets control and secrets stay locked, they were left with threats, lies, and an unforgivable accusation that shattered her trust. He was left broken. She was left betrayed-with words she wished she never said. Words that left her on read. Now fate gives them another shot-but the past refuses to let go. Can they start over? Or will they go back to square one, where regrets rot with what-ifs and maybes? Art/Story Cover (IG): @steorralie.koi FB: Eeyoreinn WP
