Zyreen Dela Costa a simple teacher in Zambales. Dahil bata pa lamang ay namulat na sa kahirapan hindi na niya nagawang kumuha ng kursong nais niya, ang architecture. Nang magkaisip ay naturuan agad kung paano tumayo sa sariling mga paa, kung paano kumayod upang mabuhay para makatulong sa may sakit na nanay at lasinggerong tatay.

"How dare you fucking disobey me," He grits his teeth clenching his fists while glaring at me. "Please let me go, I promise I won't say anything to anyone," I beg tears sliding down my cheeks slowly backing away from him. "Didn't I make myself clear already? You will never escape from here." My heart sinks down to my stomach. Anger quickly rising making me splutter two words I'd soon would regret. "FUCK YOU!," I scold. "What did you just say?," he grumbles his chocolate brown eyes three shades darker almost looking black. I gasp, as my back hits the wall watching him close in on me. I try to curve to the side, but he immediately closes me in by stretching both of his arms out. His hands firmly flat against the wall. "Repeat what you just said to me Madison," he evilly mutters his eyes locked with mine. "Leo please," I mumble. "You will learn to obey me," he venomously says his hot breathe hitting my flesh near my ear. Suddenly, his large hand grips my neck tightly chocking me. Both of my hands clutches onto his hand trying to free myself from his grip. "P-pl," I struggle to say while trying to breathe. I can feel the life in me slowly slipping away. My vision starting to blur in and out of focus. Leo suddenly lets go of my neck and I helplessly drop to the floor gasping for air like a fish gasps for water. I can feel tears sliding down my cheeks as I realize my life could have ended in the hands of this handsome murderer. "Recognize who you are speaking to. No one, I mean no one ever disrespects Leo Castillo, leader of The Red Eagles!", he firmly says his cold eyes glaring down at me. I stay silent completely mute. My body trembling from pure fear scared to say anything that might upset him again. Leo turns his heel walking out of the room locking it from the outside leaving me in shock of what just happened. "What the fuck did I get myself into?" A/N:DO NOT REPRODUCE/COPY ANY TEXT OR MY STORY IN ANYWAY. I WILL TAKE LEGAL ACTIONS IF NECESSARY!

Synopsis Solene Clemente was a typical Civil Engineering student struggling to cope with her studies. If she could simply bake the "eggs" she constantly scored on her test papers, she would have done so already. At a young age, she endured the harsh realities of life: poverty, abuse, and a broken family. But as someone who always looked on the bright side, she knew she could survive with just her mother and her best friend, Duke Laurence Sanders-the man she secretly loved. No matter the hardship, as long as her mother was with her, she could handle it. No matter how often she failed to grasp the lessons, it was okay because Duke was there to tutor her. No matter how cruel fate became, she kept fighting because two people loved and supported her. She became too dependent on the love they provided. But little did she know, much like the sun she adored, she was destined to stand alone. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A Quick Note on This Translation This is an unofficial, fan-made translation.

Klare Montefalco was born into a prominent and wealthy family. Everything is perfect. Her family loves her, and she loves them in return. Her life is simple. No drama, no sweat, no nonsense. When her heart first beat for someone, that's when she realized every wall she thought was strong could still be broken. That everything she held dear could be taken from her. Because there are kinds of love that no matter how hard you try to avoid, they always hit their mark. That kind of love where even when you dodge, it's still a bull's eye. The kind where even after you've closed your door, it still insists on knocking. But Klare is fierce, she wouldn't let that happen. No. She will risk her heart just to protect her comfort zone, her home, her everything. But in losing her love, will it only be then that she realizes what she has lost? That she had lost everything when she let him go? Is she ready to fight for it now? Now that he's gone? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A Quick Note on This Translation This is an unofficial, fan-made translation.
