WHILE ON THE OTHER SIDE EPILOGUE JAXON AVERELL Z. MONTERO

[Last of LOYAL HEARTS ] Abuse. Neglection. Independence. Malaki ang epekto sa buhay ng isang tao kapag lumaki sa kapaligirang hindi inaambunan ng pagmamahal. Love composes almost the whole percentage of life in general. Love in any kinds. Along in growing up is a discernment that you're not capable of the platitude affection. Ngunit sa paggising mo isang araw kung saan napagtanto mo ang isang bagay na inaakala mong hindi mo mararamdaman kahit kailan, isang pag-unawa ang pilit kumakain sa isip. And it is thinking that you don't deserve it. You don't deserve reciprocated feelings. Because you also grew up with the thought that you don't deserve the beautiful things. Nang makilala ni Davina si Jaxon, she knew her heart's at stake. Slowly, she let herself be engulfed with his attention. Dapat sa kanya lang ang malasakit ni Jax. She should be at the receiving end of his care and residual affection but love. She wants to hold him prisoner. A committed relationship, emotional issues and life status; Ito ang mga pader na nagbubukod sa kanila. The ones keeping them on the other side of each other. The reasons that resolved to her forbearing. But also became the backwash of their destruction. Both friendship and love. The wall thickens. It stands even higher as the conflict of the past is haunting. This time, Davina is the willing one to break those walls and go across the other side. To his side. Once again. Iyon ay kung tatanggapin pa siya muli nito.

Wild, young and free... Madalas kapag sa murang edad nagsisimula ang isang relasyon, hindi gaanong siniseryoso ang mga bagay-bagay; Rash decisions, immature mindset, juvenile beliefs...but one man excluded himself among those who believe in the theories of young love. He doesn't believe in the ideals. He believes with his heart. Magagawa pa rin kaya niyang ibukod ang sarili hanggang wakas? There are some hearts who would never take their first heartbreak too lightly. Ang iba ay ginagawa pa itong pundasyon sa pagkakaroon ng baluktot na paniniwala sa relasyon at pag-ibig. Some guaranteed detestation from their erstwhile love. Just like how he bled himself dry. Everything was used to be so perfect for Dean Cornelius Ortigoza. From an up and coming rock and roll career to supportive significant others...sa murang edad ay kulang na lang at lalagpasan na niya ang mga pangarap. Mga pangarap nila. One more step to get ahold of his dreams. All in just one single reach. Just one more...until a requisition of vow became a misstep that took a three hundred and sixty degree turn. Inside out. Hearts are breaking. Promises undone. A heart turned cold. The day he became ruthless.

Wren Martin is socially awkward. She blocks off herself to the world, hiding behind her favorite hoodie. All she wants to do is keep a low profile, and graduate well enough to qualify for a college scholarship. But then a babysitting job leads her to cross paths with Asher Reed, Eastview Highʼs notorious athlete. When a field injury kickstarts his senior year, heʼs turning his free time and attention to Wren. And maybe she might not want to be invisible after all. ***** [Watty's Collector's Edition Winner] [TFA Runaway Prize Winner] [[word count: 150,000-200,000 words]] Cover designed by Ashley Santoro
