𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐃 | ©zerefiera Kasal - isang bagay na pilit iniiwasan ni Victoria. She hated the arranged marriage set by her father. Ni hindi nga niya kayang magustuhan ang lalaki, ang pakasalan pa kaya? Desperate to escape the leash of an unwanted marriage threatening to tie her down, she planned on fleeing to her grandmother's province, but fate had a different path carved for her. Nagising na lang siya na naliligaw sa isang malayong probinsya. The tall towers and luxurious life she grew up with were replaced by beautiful views of mountain range and wide rice fields. The life there was calm, peaceful, and slow - something she always craved for. The life there turned out to be sweet - as she started to get used to the pair of chocolate brown eyes greeting her in the morning; the only pair that could make her heart go wild, yet calm her down at the same time. Kasal - isang bagay na pilit niyang iniiwasan dahil takot siyang magmahal. But the man she met in that foreign province made her think that if she would end up marrying someone... It's going to be him. First Published: 2023 Republished: Nov. 22, 2024 Finished: July 9, 2025

As the daughter of a respected politician, she grew up having everything she could ever ask for-wealth, influence, opportunities, and a future already planned for her. Everything, except Jacob Gabriel Reyes-the infamous shooting guard of the Westbridge Golden Eagles Jacob came from a poor family and worked tirelessly to earn a basketball scholarship at one of the country's most prestigious universities. Determined to give his family a better life, he had no time for distractions-especially someone like Eloise. For the first time in her life, Eloise met someone who wasn't impressed by her wealth, status, or family name. And that made her want him even more. What started as a simple crush soon became something deeper. The more she pursued him, the more she realized that some things could never be won through money, influence, or power. And when Jacob finally began to fall for her, reality came crashing down. Their worlds were never meant to collide. But when love blossoms between two people from completely different worlds, will they fight for their future together-or let the winds of tomorrow pull them apart?

After running an errand for a friend from another school, she found herself stranded, with no hope of finding a cab.

As someone who spent countless hours in biochemistry labs, proving theories with hard evidence, she didn't believe in love born from a random encounter. Was it really just a coincidence? Or could it be something more-science, fate, and destiny intertwined?

(Hearts in Harmony #1) Casey Keena Valeria doesn't believe in lasting love after being abandoned by her mother without any explanation. Growing up, she learned to depend only on herself-strong on the outside, fiery and competitive on the volleyball court, but so guarded when it comes to anything that could make her feel vulnerable. For Casey, love has always been temporary. Something that leaves. Something that hurts. Then comes Augustine Riel Chan. UST's golden boy. A rising basketball star. Confident, calm, and frustratingly persistent in a way that slowly gets under her skin. The question is, is she willing to risk everything... just to possibly get hurt again?

An Epistolary ♡ | Sports Romance 🏀📰 In life, it's the little things that escape us... the glance that stays just a heartbeat too long, a forgotten cup of coffee cooling as someone drifts away in thought, the quiet ticking of time drowned out by the noise we choose to ignore. It's in these fleeting fragments, the shy smile tucked behind seriousness, moments of hesitation or silence that speak louder than words can carry concealed meanings that go unrecognized. Even the way someone's eyes brighten when talking about what they used to love, the silences thick with meaning, the little gestures, and unconscious habits that hidden emotions quietly live, waiting for someone else to notice them. It's within these unnoticed walls that Cailey Saavedra and Siobhan Rivero's fate unfolds at Sinclair Authreo de Epiphania University. What once were simple crossings now pulse with meaning. As Cailey steps into her role as Courtside Reporter, covering Siobhan's games, she starts to catch the subtle signs, the quiet glances, the little gesture that reveal something deeper than words. Amid the roar of cheering crowds and the rush of article's deadlines, a delicate, unspoken connection blooms, written not in headlines but in the silence between them.
