TO BE EDITED SOON Dear Readers, I've decided to temporarily delete my story (soon) for a major revision. As I looked back on it, I realized there were several overlooked details and plot loopholes that I want to fix. Instead of continuing with those inconsistencies, I'd rather take the time to rewrite and improve the story so it becomes the version it was always meant to be. Thank you for all your love, support, and patience. I truly appreciate everyone who has been part of this journey, and I hope you'll join me again when the revised story returns. See you soon, and thank you for understanding. 🤍 -botheredheart

A completion of short WinRi stories

A collection of one-shots about two senators discovering that amidst the noise of politics, the heart still finds room to speak.

For ten years, bubbly and hyper-competent secretary Risa Hontiveros has been the only person who can handle her brilliant but notoriously cold CEO boss, Sherwin Gatchalian. Where Sherwin is strict, sharp-tongued, and guarded by a painful past, Risa is charming, smart, and completely unfazed by his impossible demands. Sherwin insists their relationship is strictly professional, but the office dynamic shifts completely when his smooth, charismatic business partner, Antonio "Sonny" Trillanes, tries to sweep Risa off her feet with purple tulips and lunch invitations. As an unspoken, jealous tug-of-war erupts between the two powerful men, the ultimate perfectionist CEO faces his toughest challenge yet: admitting that his most reliable employee is the one distraction he can no longer live without. WinRi and SonRi - Love Triangle

The Senate is in chaos. The internet is worse. After accidentally posting a reaction video that sends Filipino TikTok into cardiac arrest, a social media staffer finds herself documenting two unfolding disasters: 1. A political crisis. 2. Whatever the hell is happening with #WinRi. Featuring: * Senate walkouts * quorum battles * parliamentary procedure * one very confused senator * one increasingly alarmed communications team * several thousand Filipinos with far too much free time And a TikTok that should have stayed in the drafts.

A Senate slow burn AU where everything stays professional in public-but never simple in private. Between sessions, group chats, and viral moments, Risa Hontiveros and Win Gatchalian keep things unspoken, even when the silence says otherwise. Because after the gavel falls, nothing really ends.

The Senate was never meant to be a place for love. Yet somewhere between late-night hearings, endless debates, and quiet moments away from the public eye, two senators found something worth holding on to. Beyond the Plenary is a story of love, sacrifice, family, and second chances. As politics, public scrutiny, and personal ambitions pull them apart, Risa and Sherwin must navigate the painful distance between duty and the life they once dreamed of together. Because sometimes, despite the years, the heartbreak, and all the chaos in between, love finds its way back home.
