Chiara Asunción has survived a life of betrayal, trauma, and neglect, yet the scars run deep. Rebellious, guarded, and carrying the weight of her past, she trusts no one until Demian Chavez, her former senior and now professor, enters her life. Quiet, steady, and strangely attuned to her pain, he offers something Chiara thought she'd lost forever: a chance at justice, healing, and maybe even love. But can Chiara let down her walls for a man who seems so detached yet so determined, or will the shadows of her past keep them apart forever?

Serein Chua learned early that love doesn't stay. It drifts, it betrays, it chooses someone else. When her father left to build a life with his mistress, she stopped believing in forever and started believing in control. No labels. No promises. No heartbreak. So she began treating people as convenience. Temporary comfort, nothing more. She took what she wanted, gave only what was needed, and never stayed long enough to be left behind. Until Hughie Azrael. He wasn't loud or demanding. With his soft, almost delicate features and quiet strength, he didn't look like someone who could shake her rules apart. Yet behind his calm presence was a man built on responsibility, steady in ways she never allowed herself to be. And for the first time, Serein found herself drawn to someone she couldn't easily use, forget, or control. Someone she couldn't help but be lured by.

Highest Ranking #15 in action First book of the Sanguinum Queens' Series The Bloody Empresses, they're the most powerful gangsters who've ruled the underworlds, but now they have disappeared. My name's Annessa, and yes, I'm not the 'main' character of this story... It's about us, Sanguinum Queens, how we will rise to the top once again. Though it wasn't really much of a challenge, it was fun. We got to go to a famous university, a school for not so normal people, and for the elites. Akuma's University, where it begins. (Possible na every chapter ay may curse words, so kung di niyo yun gusto, wag niyo nang basahin to and last. Editing paring ang A.U. kaya expect typos and grammatical errors at iba pa, and I'm also trying to lessen the cursing and it pains me to see that I have a lot of errors...)
