"I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. Kahit na suplado ka, self-centered, selfish, and conceited. I thought deep down inside you, mabait ka. That you were just pressured to be your best in school because your father is the President of the Philippines. I thought...kulang ka lang sa pagmamahal dahil masyadong busy ang mga magulang mo and because they never understand you. But I was wrong. Robin was right. You are not the person I think you are and I'm just living inside a lie I created." "But I will continue to live in that lie...Anthony Marco Silva, I will love you until the day I die." ****** "Feel na feel ko yung Dear Tony.

PREVIOUSLY CALLED "BEAUTY'S MELODY" "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." ~Martin Luther King Jr. ~~~~~ In the beginning, there was a boy. A girl. And a beast. For years, legends rumor that there is a beast roaming in the Péige Forest near a northern village in the kingdom. It is merciless, ruthless, and undeniably dangerous to all those who come near. Hundreds of men have attempted to kill it only to never be heard of again. It has been a year since Mira's older brother has been gone after venturing off to kill the beast. And like all the others, everyone suspects he is dead and the pain comes right after when they find out that it is true. Determined to take revenge, her youngest sister goes off on her own into the Péige Forest to avenge her brother. Mira now has no choice but to save her siblings in a hunt that could very well end her life. But when she gets separated from her family for good, nothing seems certain anymore. Not even the strange, kind man, who never reveals his identity, she met along the way. He promises to help her find her siblings only with the condition that she would not come close to him. That one decision would change life forever, plunging her in a world of light and dark, hatred and love. ~~ A Beauty and the Beast Retelling Edited by flowergirl82 Cover by me Cover picture by Emily Soto (http://goo.gl/tYZhQP)

Once upon a time in a far away land, there was a cruel and uncaring lord. There was a good witch who wanted to teach him a lesson. There was a curse and there was a beast. 650 years later, an innocent California girl found herself imprisoned by said beast. The witch had a sister who may or may not be evil and may or may not be relevant to the story. A warlock was also involved, but no one really knows where he comes in either. There was plenty of trust and betrayal, fear and courage, unlikely friendships and maybe even love. And you thought you knew the story of Beauty and the Beast.

Philippines: year 2300 Ang panahon kung saan ang Pilipinas ay nahahati sa tatlong paksyon na tila caste system na pamumuhay; una, ang mga bid (ang pinaka mababang uri ng pamumuhay o ang pinakamahirap). Pangalawa, ang mga commoner (middle class napamumuhay). At ang huli ang pinakamataas na antas ng pamumuhay, ang mga bidders. Kung bakit bidders? Sila ang may kakayahan para bumili ng mga bid o kahit na commoner para mailipat ang kanilang memory gene sa ibang katawan at masabing imortal sila. Ang memory gene na ito ay inimbento ng kompanyang MEMO© na hawak ng kasalukuyang diplomatic government. Isang eksperimontong pumasa sa Europe at patuloy na ginagamit ng mga bidders upang mabuhay sa kahit gaano pa kahabang siglo.
