"I didn't expect that marriage will be introduced to me like food in a silver platter. It's hard to fathom why someone like you would need my help. Hindi ko kasi alam ang totoong ibig sabihin ng lifemate, naintindihan ko nalang iyon ng makita ko na vulnerable ka na at ng matakot akong mawala ka sa akin. You complete the missing piece of me and I intend to take you my captive for as long as there's forever." Proverbs is contented living a simple life. Her three brothers all went and stayed under the limelight while she kept her profile low. The day she found out that her boyfriend and soon-to-be fiance cheated on her was also the day she knew of her marriage to an unknown guy named Niccolo Moresco. She was shocked to know that it was her grandmother who orchestrated the event and so she vowed not to obey but be as defiant as she can be. She's been following orders all her life and it's high time that she shows some fangs to people especially to her groom-to-be. She stood firm even when she found out that she's a part of the so-called UNDEAD. Figuring out that Niccolo is the same and so is her whole family does not make much of a difference. She still won't budge. But will she continue being defiant and stubborn if she found out the real reason why Niccolo is marrying her?

Eleanor has always lived a life of privilege. Chauffeured rides, luxury vacations, and a future meticulously planned for her. But when everything crumbles, she does the unthinkable. She runs. With nothing but a duffle bag, a backpack, and a phone she barely wants to use, she escapes to the countryside, far from the city she once called home. Lost in an unfamiliar place where even the language feels foreign, Eleanor must learn to rely on herself and the kindness of strangers. Awkward exchanges with the locals turn into moments of quiet understanding, and the simplicity of rural life offers a peace she never knew she needed. Maybe being lost isn't so bad after all. She never planned to stay forever. This was only supposed to be a temporary escape, a pause before she faced the wreckage of her old life. But then she meets him. A quiet, steady presence in a world that finally makes sense. In his company, she finds laughter in the little things, comfort in shared silences, and a kind of love she never thought she deserved. Just when she starts to believe she has found where she truly belongs, her past catches up with her, forcing her to make an impossible choice. Does she walk away from the life she has built in the countryside and the man who made her feel at home? Or does she stay, even if it means risking everything? How long can she outrun the life she left behind? And what is she really searching for at the end of the road?

As I began to disrobe, undressing myself in front of him, his attention was solely focused on me. A smirk formed on his lips as he took a sip of his Tequila. His eyes roamed freely over. I hope he finally realizes my worth and values the love I have for him. I am determined to fulfill his desires and ensure his satisfaction as his devoted wife. Despite lacking experience in such matters, I am willing to go to great lengths to establish a deep connection with him. I yearn for the opportunity to prove myself and fervently hope he gives me the chance I deserve. As I look at him, I can sense his disdain overwhelming him. His scrunching eyes and tight-lipped mouth reveal his feelings of disgust. Even his body seems to tense up, as if recoiling from something truly repulsive. I can almost imagine the waves of revulsion radiating from him, as though daring anyone to come near. It's a look that sends a shiver down my spine, making me wonder what could have possibly earned such a reaction from him. As I moved quickly toward him, my heart pounded in my chest, not just in a blink of an eye, he also grabbed my neck and throw me to the ground. Sa takot ko, di ako umimik ng ilang segundo. I am choking, can't even barely take a breathe and move. I wanna cry but walang lumalabas na luha sa mga mata ko. Probably because my tears seem to have dried up from constant crying. It's frustrating to want to release the emotions through tears, but they just won't come. "You wish, bitch. You're not even appetizing. You're a boring filthy whore." It was in that moment that I became aware of the utter embarrassment of my situation. He let go of my neck and walked away. I coughed, running out of breathe. I slowly get my clothes and cover my body. I failed. Humagolgol na lang ako sa pag-iyak. Highest ranks: Top 1 - Loneliness Category Top 1 - Anime Category

Isang gabi lang. Pero sapat na para magbago ang lahat. Nina thought she had it all-career, comfort, and a relationship na matagal na niyang pinanghawakan. Everything seemed perfect... until dumating siya. The man with those piercing eyes, a smile that disarmed her logic, and a presence that shook her carefully built world. Cliché? Maybe. Pero hindi na ito rom-com sa sinehan-ito, buhay na niya. Kahit pa may ibang taong laman ng kanyang mga litrato at alaala, bakit nga ba si Iñigo ang laman ng puso niya gabi-gabi? Bakit siya ang naiisip niya kapag mag-isa na lang siya sa kwarto, habang tahimik ang mundo? Bakit siya ang gusto niyang makita pagkagising? His eyes-those intense, magnetic eyes-glimmered like cut diamonds, stealing every rational thought she had. His strong, perfectly built frame, parang knight in modern armor, always ready to catch her-figuratively and literally. He was a gentleman in every sense of the word. Calm. Confident. At may tinig na parang kayang tunawin ang lahat ng ingay sa paligid. Pero kapag hinahalikan niya si Nina, wala nang tahimik. Fireworks. The way his lips skimmed across her jaw, the electric pull when he crushed his lips against hers-it was more than just a kiss. It was chaos and comfort all at once. At dun niya narealize... She wasn't just drawn to him. She was falling. Hard. At habang pinipilit niyang itanggi, her body already betrayed her. Her heart? Matagal nang sumuko. Uh-oh. Nina could smell it. This isn't just attraction. This... is trouble. But the kind that makes you want to risk it all

Being a perfect daughter is what Mera Francheska only wants in her life. She wants nothing but to please her parents and follow whatever they ask even if it's already beyond her. Ang hindi pagkakaroon ng nobyo habang nagaaral ang kaisa-isang patakaran ng mga magulang niya. It's easy for her... too easy. Not until he met Daniel Monasterio, the man who judged and embarrassed her in front of many. "She's pretty. Too pretty actually. Pero walang dating. Puro ganda lang. Hindi papasa sa akin." Those words kept on ringing inside Cheska's head that fueled the anger in her. Dahil doon, nagdesisyon siyang patunayan sa Daniel na iyon na may ibubuga rin naman siya at hindi puro ganda lang. Little did she know that while she's having those small fights and arguments with Daniel, it only made her fall for the man whom she thought was nothing but a playboy. He has been always ready to fight for her; she isn't. He's ready to marry and build a family with her; she married someone else while he's watching from afar. Hearts and promises gets broken. Love becomes ugly and coward.

COMPLETED✓ "Ibalik mo sa amin ang Anloague! Iyon ang gusto ko!" I replied to him. Kinuyom ko ang mga palad ko ng makitang hindi man lang siya naapektuhan sa sinabi ko. His lips formed a mocking smile that made my inside burst. Napakayabang mo! Lumapit pa lalo siya sa akin. I licked my lips as I looked at his deep brown eyes filled with rage. Hindi ko kayang tingnan ang mga matang iyon kaya umiwas ako ng tingin. Napapikit ako ng mariin. "Ibabalik ko lang iyon kapag naging akin ka, Ada," his breath reached my ears. "I wanna change your surname to Primotivo. Can you do that?" kakaibang sensasyon ang naramdaman ko sa bulong iyon. Heat spreads through my body. Come on, Ada! This is not the time for this. No... No... No! This is forbidden! A Montejo and Primotivo cannot make a deal together. It's not right! One must take the courage to win. I'm not going to loose from him. Mababawi pa kaya ni Andrada Germaine ang lahat ng nawala sa pamilya niya? Or will she surrrender to her feelings and forget the feud between the families? A/N: Not Edited.
