What a bad moment for a girl named Skylar Millie Parker to return home after four years in Canada, quitting a well-paid job. Unexpectedly, something happened on her way home when she met someone who would eventually lead her to an even better job opportunity from a prestigious family. Skylar accepted it without having a hint of the bigger trouble that would appear in her life in the form of a person; a woman named Hera Cythera Arentsvelt. The stories about Cythera intrigued her, even without personally seeing the infamous head of the family as she's always locked in her room. Quiet and mysterious, hauntingly playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. But then the time finally came, and something unexplainable changed inside Skylar the moment she saw the woman behind that name... "I remember vividly the first time I laid my eyes on you. You were wearing your purple robe with the same color as your eyes. I suddenly felt like everything around me had stopped, and you were the only one moving. Slowly taking the steps down the grand stairs. It felt like my breath got stuck in my throat, my heart pumping more blood than it should, and my head whispered to my ear...she looks ethereal." Ngunit ano nga bang malaking gulo na dala ng dalaga sa buhay ni Sky? At ano ang katakot takot na sikreto nito ang siyang tuluyang magpapabago sa buhay niya at sa mga tao sa paligid niya? Worse than that, it looks like Cythera knows something about the infamous serial killer in town... But is she the killer?

(COMPLETE) Artemis 'Tammy' Samaniego is smart, sharp, and stubborn. A top scholar at the prestigious University of Saint Raphael, one of the most respected schools in the Philippines. She's always at the top of her class, a well-respected officer in the Accountancy Department, and a promising future CPA. Above all, she values integrity-and never backs down from what she believes is right. Antonia 'Nia' Marie Vasquez is the 'Queen Bee'-once the pride of the Banking and Finance Department, known for her quiet influence and commanding presence. But then she vanished. Now she's back, more mysterious than ever, and no longer the golden girl. As an irregular student, her return is full of questions, and her calm, calculated moves disrupt the balance. Their paths were never meant to cross. But when they do, sparks fly-and not the sweet kind. Arguments. Mind games. Power plays. And yet, beneath it all, something dangerous begins to bloom. Will Tammy uncover the truth behind Nia's disappearance? And will Nia be able to tame someone who refuses to be controlled? Warning: This is a medium burn story. This is not edited yet as well.
