In a city of power, privilege, and quiet expectations, love is never just love. Among Manila's elite-where names carry weight and choices have consequences- lives intertwine in ways they were never meant to. Behind polished smiles and perfect lives are stories of almosts, of feelings that came at the wrong time, and connections that were never meant to last... but did anyway. Some will fall in love. Some will fall apart. And some will learn that even in a world where everything can be chosen- love... isn't one of them. Maybe, it stays. Maybe, it doesn't. Maybe, Manila. These are their stories. Every story begins somewhere. This one begins with them- Celestine Lopez Villanueva and Diego Castro Reyes. Maybe, Always.

Si Mirasol Eliana Ruiz ay kilala sa kanilang bayan bilang "Manang Sol." Lumaki sa puder ng kanyang lola Asul, nasanay sa tahimik na buhay, konserbatibong paligid, at asal na tila lagpas at hindi naaayon sa bata niyang edad. Para sa iba, kakaiba siya. Sobrang kakaiba. Ngunit para kay Sol, iyon siya... at iyon ang mundo niya. Hanggang sa dumating si Hael Alonzo De Vera sa bayan at buhay nila. Isang batang Maynila na napadpad sa Batangas para bisitahin ang kanyang lolo kasama ang kanyang kapatid at pinsan. Sanay si Hael sa ingay ng lungsod, sa mabilis na takbo ng buhay, at sa mga taong hindi nagdadalawang-isip sa paglalahad ng iniisip nila. Sa madaling salita, kabaligtaran siya ni Sol. Sa gitna ng isang mainit at payapa sanang bakasyon, magtatagpo ang dalawang mundong hindi dapat magtagpo- ang tahimik at ang magulo, ang tradisyonal at ang moderno. Ngunit paano kung sa likod ng pagiging "Manang" ni Sol ay may puso pala siyang handang matutong sumabay sa bago? At paano kung si Hael, sa kabila ng kanyang kasiyahan sa lungsod, ay unti-unting mahulog sa katahimikan ng probinsya... at sa babaeng hindi niya inaasahang mamahalin niya? START: April 9, 2026 END:

BOOK 1 of the Engkanto Chronicles Series = Gemfot Fanfic featuring KATAW = Disclaimer: This is a fantasy series inspired by the mythical creatures of Philippine mythology, with a touch of BL. Engkantos are supernatural environmental spirits and nature dwellers in Filipino folklore. They are often portrayed as beautiful, elven beings-or in some cases, hideous and powerful ones. Depicted as having high-level magical powers, they can control elements and sometimes appear in human form, with variations depending on the provinces where their stories originate. This book focuses on Chrysos, the star futsal player of Chulalongkorn University's Law Department who is working hard to earn his law degree and support his family. He shouldered heavy responsibilities at a young age when his father left them two years ago after a car accident, leaving him as the sole guardian of his little sister and disabled mother. He thought his life would be stuck in a constant cycle of just getting by from then on-but that changed when he met Calix, the cold and mysterious captain of the Chulalongkorn University swimming team.

In a world where love between humans and other beings is forbidden. Mira and Elian crossed paths a mysterious man of royal blood, later cast out by his own kind. Their bond, more than a scandal, shook the fragile balance between two worlds. Defying the laws of his lineage, Elian risked everything even his freedom and eternal life for a secret love that burned like fire, awakening the Ancient Powers that long slumbered. The Elders of Biringan gave their warnings. Elian's parents knew that one day, he would need to become stronger than anyone. His mother took steps to prepare him for that time, while his father journeyed across realms in search of allies who could free him from the prison of the Forgotten Stars, where he was bound by the Chains of the Heartless Moon. Their love meant to remain hidden led to both a miracle and a threat the world had never seen. Three children were born beings of the Two Worlds. And as the children grew within Mira's womb, so too did the forces that sought either to claim them... or to destroy them. The Watchers, ancient keepers of destiny, saw Amee as a weapon. The Elders feared Liam's blood, for it carried the forbidden lineage of Elian. And the mystical Lords of Unmaking sought to erase Aelani before she could become the thread that would unravel their order. With the aid of divine beings, mystical forces, and the strength of her family, Mira stood her ground. A single family shattered the silence and their legacy might be the one to shatter the world itself. Can love truly bridge the Law of the Two Worlds? Or is the price far too great to bear?
