TAGALOG As a ugly and chubby kid in the Philippines, I was often bullied by a classmate who took joy in tormenting me. But my life transformed when my mother and I moved to America - I finally found happiness and acceptance. Tragedy struck when my mother passed away, and I had to return to the Philippines to live with my father and grandparents . In a bitter coincidence, I saw my bully and face my past again

I thought I knew what happiness looked like neatly filed plans, glowing achievements, a future carved with precision. I had no time for detours, no patience for mess. Love was a distraction, spontaneity a weakness. I told myself I was content. Safe. Unshaken. Then you came along loud where I was quiet, wild where I was still. You didn't fit into any part of the world I built, and yet somehow, you made the whole thing feel more alive. Now, I'm standing in the middle of everything I never planned falling, feeling, letting go. And for the first time, I'm not afraid to get it wrong. Because with you, even the chaos feels like home Where Intellect Meets Desire - A Story

Hope Eloise Sullivan grew up inside a mansion that never felt like home. Under the Zalduana name, she learned early that survival meant staying quiet, staying useful, and never asking for a place no one was willing to give her. But inside the hospital, she is no one's hidden burden. She is Dr. Sullivan-brilliant, sharp-tongued, steady-handed, and impossible to ignore. Then the Levistes enter the picture. And with them comes Zantasia Cazhielle Leviste. Composed, powerful, and dangerously unreadable, Zantasia is the kind of woman Hope should never want to understand. She belongs to a world of influence, arranged alliances, and family secrets-the same kind of world that has kept Hope within limits her entire life. But Zantasia looks at her like she sees too much. And Hope, despite every warning in her head, starts looking back. What begins as tension quickly turns into something far more dangerous: desire, guilt, obsession, and a truth neither of them is ready to face. Because the closer Hope gets to Zantasia, the more the past begins to move-and some buried things were never meant to stay buried forever. In a world where powerful families rewrite the truth, where love can be used as leverage, and where being seen can be just as dangerous as being erased, Hope must decide how far she is willing to go for the woman who could either free her from the limits she was born into... or become the reason she breaks them.

(GxG) I wrapped my arm around the small of her waist and went to her ear. I then gently rubbed her side and whispered, "Later on tonight when you're laying in bed after you've downed your seventh glass of wine I want you to think of me." "W-why." She said nervously. I blew down her neck. "Because when your body is warm and your face is flushed and you have nothing to do but stare at the ceiling...I want my face to be on your mind when you reach for that bottom drawer on your night stand." I gently pressed my head against hers. "And when you close your eyes and arch your back against that warm vibration, as you explode into that world of pleasure, just know I'm in another place wishing you the happiest of birthdays." I said lowly. I stepped away and there was a deafening silence from her. "See you tomorrow Liv." I winked with a smile. Her eyes were glazed over as she looked at me. She was weak in the knees. |~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~|~| Talia Love is a young prospecting teacher who finds herself struggling with the responsibility of being a full time mother and living up to the expectations she's expected of.
