Haoran Lauchengco thought she was invincible. Ilang riot, gang war, o gulo na ang nasangkutan niya, at ilang assassination attempt na rin mula sa mga kalaban niya ang dinanas niya ngunit alinman sa mga ito ay walang nakapagpatumba sa kaniya. She remained indomitable and stayed at the top of the organization. Kaya naman hindi niya akalain na sakit sa puso pala ang tatraydor at makapagpapabagsak sa kaniya. She battled the heart disease for three years, and miraculously survived after a major open heart surgery in the US. Given with a second chance of life, nagbago ang pananaw niya sa buhay at nagpasyang talikuran ang lahat ng gawi niya noon at mag-umpisang muli pag-uwi niya sa Pilipinas. Then she crossed paths with Mavericke Vergel De Dios, a drop-dead gorgeous doctor and professor who always captivates everyone's attention. She's a 10, yet an ill-tempered and a terror. Haoran never liked the feeling whenever she's with her. Pakiramdam niya kasi ay sasabog ang dibdib niya at aatakihin siya sa puso sa tuwing malapit ito, lalo na kapag nagtatagpo ang mga mata nila. Sa takot na bumalik ang sakit niya, umiwas na siya habang maaga pa. She tried to never crossed paths with her again... but it seems fate has another plan for them. ___ © 2022 Hraefn

Tangled long, blond hair matted with blood stuck to her face. The whites of her big eyes contrasting against pale skin spattered in blood. Wearing only a bikini bottom, her breasts were covered in blood, a large gash to her upper eye and forehead streaming blood down to her waist. But the hand she held the gun in was clean, dry and steady, raised at her shoulder height. An empty holster for a dive knife was strapped to her leg, the small blade grasped tight in the fist that stabilized the raised nine-millimeter Luger. She took two shallow breaths and turned slowly to look over at Voss and his brothers for a quick second. She collected two guns off the dead gunmen and crossed the galley, quickly freeing Voss’s hands, leaving him the knife to take care of his brothers. She said nothing.'

Angel Lastor, maker of her own demise and a modern day femme fatale. As a descendant of one of the most powerful and wealthiest families in the world, she is understandably revered and envied by those who knows her name. As a casual outlaw infamous for the unrelenting force of her fury and wanton lust for violence and a needle to her vein, her name is synonymous to a shot gun housing a set of bullet shells held to your head. It goes without saying that the last thing a rule abiding, saintly, and almost-too-good-to-be-true man like Frederick Richardson would want was to attach himself to a shit stain like Angel Lastor. Unfortunately, we don't always get what we want, do we?
