Asturia Series #2
Zareisha Cleo de Guzman was defined by her neighborhood as the poor disguised as a fashionista.
Hindi siya papayag na lalabas sa kaniyang mala-palasyong tahanan na hindi fresh. Kailangan ay palaging maganda ang mukha, suot, at kahit ang mood. That was her daily setup.
She loved mirrors; she loved looking at herself in them. She was the epitome of confidence and boldness. Siya ang salamin na walang makababasag. Matibay. Matigas. Malakas.
But she reflected more than just beauty and confidence---she reflected illusions... A very well-crafted layers of perfection, happiness, and strength, lie a girl hiding behind the thick mask.
Ito na siguro ang pinakamakapal na maskara sa buong mundo. At hindi niya basta-bastang huhubarin ito sa harap ng kahit na sino.
Just like the mirrors she loved, she definitely depicted different versions of herself... she had long lived in the flickering masks of pretending. She was very pretentious, and that was what Warren Valentio Asturia thought...
Yet, he saw right through her.
He was never fascinated with her sparkle... He was suspicious of it. He believed she had no depth, and wanted to dive right into her. Ngunit paano kung parehas lang naman pala sila? Mga mapagpanggap...
And just like the thick masks they wore, what once was a beautiful story, suddenly fell and broke apart with a lot of hitches.

The Bizarre Files from Aksamala's Twisted Mind II
I know you didn't come back out of longing. You came back out of curiosity. Because in the first book, I deliberately left some doors closed. Or maybe-just maybe-you're reading this because you're still single and lonely. Relax. Lonely people are often the ones who linger the longest in someone else's story. Especially when the story is messier than their own life. In these book, I open just enough for you to peek in- but never enough for you to feel at ease.

Beneath Their Eyes
Born into a well-known and respected family, Yves Shane Rivera was the university's pride-beautiful, brilliant, and beloved by everyone. A 21-year-old Business Administration student, she ruled the campus with her grace and intelligence. She was the perfect image of what every student dreamed to become-confident, kind, and endlessly admired. The "School Queen," they called her. But behind her radiant smile and flawless image was a girl silently suffocating under her parents' expectations and the weight of perfection. Every move she made was watched, every word she spoke was judged, and every emotion she felt had to be hidden behind a practiced mask. Then there was Cleo Selene Alvarez, also 21, taking up his MBA in Hospital Management. Known for his cold, emotionless aura and sharp eyes that seemed to pierce through anyone who dared to look too long, Cleo was the complete opposite of Shane. He rarely spoke, preferred solitude, and never cared for the admiration that followed him. Yet, girls couldn't help but fall for the mystery he carried-the quiet, unreadable man who walked through the corridors with an effortless kind of charm. They were two worlds that were never meant to collide-until they did. What started as stolen glances and quiet smiles turned into something, neither of them expected: love. But love, for them, was a dangerous secret. Shane's parents had already chosen someone else for her, someone with wealth and power. Cleo, no matter how genuine his love was, would never be enough in their eyes. So they hid. In a world that praised Shane for her perfection and feared Cleo for his coldness, they found warmth only in each other's arms-away from the eyes that would never understand. Because sometimes, love isn't about being seen. It's about surviving-together, even in the shadows. Warning: 🔞 Macolet

Verre
In this world we live in, people say be real. But when one becomes at their realest state, they're frowned upon for not being the same as what the majority is.

The Way She Looked at Him
It started with a look. It won't end with one. She never meant to notice him - not like that. But once she did, she couldn't stop. A quiet woman begins to orbit a stranger, her fascination growing with every accidental meeting, every shared glance. To her, it feels like love - gentle, fated, inevitable. Yet the more she looks, the less she truly sees him. What begins as longing slowly bends into something else: fixation, control, the illusion of connection. The Way She Looked at Him starts as a tender, introspective love story and deepens into a study of obsession - how easily affection can become delusion, and how dangerous it is to mistake noticing for knowing.
I know you didn't come back out of longing. You came back out of curiosity. Because in the first book, I deliberately left some doors closed. Or maybe-just maybe-you're reading this because you're still single and lonely. Relax. Lonely people are often the ones who linger the longest in someone else's story. Especially when the story is messier than their own life. In these book, I open just enough for you to peek in- but never enough for you to feel at ease.
