Wonderland Series #5
....
I used to be a chase fiend kinda girl. May it be hobbies, work, friends, sex...madali akong magsawa. They said na sadya raw akong maarte at matigas ang ulo,kaya kaunting inconvenience ay kaagad na akong umaayaw. 

Umaalis. Lumilipat. Permanence was never in my vocabulary. 

At bakit naman ako magtityagang mag-adjust kung marami namang pagpipilian? 

Choices that were much better, easier and pleasurable? It was not my fault that men mistake my red flags to be their butterflies. At bakit ko kailangang mag explain? Were they the ones walking with my skin on and enjoying every waking moment of my life? Hindi naman so, no. I could care less. 

Well that was my mindset then, for the second I stepped inside Wonderland? I came face to face with the truth: that I was alone. That no matter how much I ran, I was and always would...run in circles. 

And I was...alone. Simple as that.

The epiphany led me to start changing my goals in life, that was, if I even had any. I denounced my old lifestyle, started practicing self control and landed a job that I believed I would actually like for a long term. 

But it was hard, alright. It got even harder when my work assigned me to one Javier Aragon. That man...god...who introduced me to Wonderland. He brought out all kinds of desperation in me lalo pa at alam kong wala naman siyang interes sa akin maliban sa mainit na bagay sa gitna ng mga hita ko. And I hated that.

But I was like a masochist moth to the flame for Javier just makes me want to say yes whenever he's around...but I also wanted to chase him, corner him, make him submit and taste him over and over 'till I feel like I was back in control.

Then what? So that I can run again? Probably. 

Or for once, maybe...I'll...stay.

You Broke Me First (Pontevedra Series #3) by raixxne

I always wondered how it feels like to be rich. How it feels like to walk with a luxury bag clinging on your arm. How it feels like to have jewelries to make you shine. Maybe I am ambitious. Maybe I am materialistic, because I never experienced having any of it. I needed to work for myself. I needed to support my study because I have no one. I don't have anyone to support me that's why I didn't know how to act and how to grow myself as a person. No one guides me to the right path. No one is there for me. I am always alone. That's why when I meet this rich handsome man, I did everything to get close to him. I flirted with him. I tried to catch his attention. In short, nagpapansin ako. All I thought, kapag malapit na kami sa isa't isa mararanasan ko na ang magandang buhay pero hindi e. Mas lulubog pa pala ako sa kaniya. Mas babagsak pa pala ako. Luluha lang pala ako at masasaktan. Bakit kaya hindi umaayon sa akin ang tadhana? Why did it choose to give me bunch of challenges and problems and not happiness? Kahit saglit lang. Kahit patikim lang ng saglit na kaligayan. Gano'n ba kahirap ibigay sa akin iyon at kailangan pang ipagdamot sa akin?

Ms. Sunny Meets Dark Prince by ChamieChamCham

Sunny says: "Bakit bigla kitang naging boyfriend?!" Cloud says: "Ayaw naman kitang maging girlfriend!" Will their story turns out a sunny happy ending or a cloudy sad one? Find out!-- Cheesiness alert. Disclaimer: This story was written when I was 17 or 18 years old. I first published this on Wattpad way back in 2012 or 2013. I am not a writer, a linguist nor a grammarian. Anything that is out of place here is due to the lack of my knowledge in the area. I apologize for inconsistencies or plot holes but I still hope that you'll enjoy a story born from the chaotic mind of an awkward teenager with raging hormones. At first, I decided to delete this. Now I realized, I am now 27 and I don't write stories anymore. Gone are the days I have overflowing passion, motivation, energy and endless creativity for novels and the like. I won't delete this piece anymore because it's like a small window of my younger self playing outside on a sunny day while the current me is inside a four-cornered room where I only do 'adult chores'. Don't get me wrong but I am not depressed or anything. I just know that I am at that age where the reality and its responsibilities smack you hard on the face with a metal chair. Thank you to the people who supported, reacted (whatever emotions you felt) and congratulated me during my first views until it blew up to 4.8 million. I didn't get trophies, money nor certificates but I was happy... NO. I AM HAPPY. Oo nga pala. Naaalala ko pa. Minadali ko yung ending nito dati kasi naghahabol ako ng thesis proposal ko.

Sweetest Mistake by iamwanna29

Alam mo 'yung feeling na wala ka namang ginagawang masama, pero parang pinagtitripan ka ng universe? Yung tipong isang maling liko mo lang, biglang ang daming domino effect na sumasabog sa mukha mo? Gano'n ang ganap sa buhay ko. Once upon a time, I was just an average girl-well, not-so-average dahil certified independent woman tayo, mga besh. I had a decent job, a stable life, and a heart that was very much closed for renovation. Bakit? Kasi my ex-boyfriend ghosted me. As in, bigla na lang nawala, walang pasabi, walang closure, walang anything. Eh di syempre, bilang matinong babae, I did what any rational human being would do-nag-move on nang slight. Pero 'di ko akalain na sa kagustuhan kong iwasan ang lalaking sinaktan ako, biglang may ibang lalaki namang ipapatapon sa buhay ko ang tadhana. At saang lugar pa? Sa isang hotel room. With a stranger. At hindi lang basta-bastang lalaki, kundi isang nakakagigil na tao na later on, malalaman kong magiging bagong boss ko. Yes. Alam kong wala akong luck sa love life, pero bakit pati sa career, pinaglalaruan ako ng tadhana? This is the story of how one mistake-one embarrassing, nakakahiya, and downright WORST moment of my life-turned into something I never expected. Welcome to my Sweetest Mistake

LOL= Love out Loud I: The Denial by IcyMinty

Imposible mang isipin pero pagdating sa pag-ibig, walang imposible. Kahit anong gawin mo if it's meant talaga, mangyayari talaga. -- Una ko palang kita sa kanya, naramdaman ko na yung kakaibang pakiramdam na hindi normal na nararamdaman ng isang tao, in short na love at first sight ako. He's always my inspiration since I enter college, kahit hindi kami magka-klase at di pa niya ako kilala nong first sem, I always follows him and always look at him. Nag audition pa ako sa banda sa school as vocalist para mapansin niya ako kaso hindi ako natanggap yet kinuha ako as the contestant for the Diva off yung contestant for the singing contest, I grab the opportunity kaagad at di inisip ang consequences pero binalewala ko yung takot for the sake na mapansin ako nang taong yun. Tsk. Second sem naging kaklase ko siya at napunta sa puntong nakalat sa buong klase... ay hindi pala, sa buong batch pala namin, even mga teachers alam na may gusto ako sa kanya. I really can't approach him kasi nahihiya ako and him also. Malay ko ba. Did this simple crush turns to the next level or it will fade away because of the differences in their social roles and the way they think their visions in life? Will this negative and positive attracts to each other? Or will it turn to nothing? Experience the crazy, complicated, thrilling story that you might turn your head upside down to this story entitled love out loud. -- Everytime you look at me my world stops and I can't help but to smile like an idiot. -Cyrus Alvarez

Wicked Escape (COMPLETED) by helene_mendoza

I never had any experience dating men. Never had the chance to enjoy my life on my own. Never experienced to be an ordinary girl. Parties. Dates. First kiss. Never had any of those. I was so jealous of my friends who can go out whenever they wanted to go. Because I grew up always surrounded by the security detail that was provided by my father. Thanks to his successful political career that ruined my freedom. But I had enough. I am done with those uniformed bodyguards that always followed wherever I go. I am done being confined in our own home. I am done being the prisoner of my own life. I would start to live and enjoy my freedom by running away. Then I met him. And it was the best times of my life. ----------------- My latest assignment was to become an additional security detail for a spoiled brat daughter of a famous political man. An assignment that I totally disliked from the start. But as an agent, I was trained not to say no to any case that was given to me. As much as I hated this kind of a no brainer mission, I needed to do it. She was a brat. Selfish. Who in their right mind would run away from a family that was giving her the best life that anyone could wish? But she was my mission, and even if I hated her, I was bound to protect her with my life. But for the first time, I failed my mission. The most important one in my entire career as an agent. Everyone thought that I was the hero that saved her. They didn't know the wicked little secret that I was hiding from them. My only job was to protect her. And I ended up wrecking her. . ---------- A/N: PHYSICAL BOOKS NOW AVAILABLE. Same plot and characters but this copy is totally different from the self-pub version.

Tarot Series #01: She's the Devil in Disguise by JayLawrenceRoosevelt

She gave off the impression of being quiet and indifferent to everything around her. Because of that, I assumed she was just some odd woman. But as they say, 'Don't judge a book by its cover,' or risk regretting it. Nag-umpisa ang lahat sa l*ntik na sulat-isang cliché na love letter. Kilala ako bilang calculative, calm, at rational thinker. But everything falls apart when someone dares to cross my boundaries. Isa na rito ang privacy, ang personal space ko, ang sarili kong buhay, at ang mga bagay ko. Wala akong pakialam sa sulat, pero ang ikinagagalit ko ay kung saan ito inilagay ng walang hiya. It was right inside my damn bag. Ibig sabihin, may nangialam sa gamit ko para itanim ang walang kwentang sulat na 'yon. Sobrang nag-alab ang mga mata ko, and I wouldn't stop until I found that stupid *homo australopithecus.* Hanggang sa dinala ako sa kanya. To be honest, I never expected someone like her to do something so disgraceful. Wala sa mukha niya ang pagiging naive o crazy. Kung tutuusin, siya ang tipo na tititigan ka lang mula sa malayo at susuko agad kaysa maghabol sa isang tulad kong napakataas para abutin. Hindi ako nagmamayabang, at hindi ko gawain 'yan. Pero sa sitwasyon ko, hindi ito maiiwasang isipin. Ever since that disastrous event, I found myself saying things that struck deeper each time, eventually crossing every line. It was almost effortless, watching her shatter piece by piece. Every time na nakikita ko siya, talagang kumukulo ang dugo ko, lalo na kapag nagsasalita siya dahil magkaibang-magkaiba ang aming pananaw. Laging nauuwi sa bangayan ang pag-uusap naming dalawa. I really despise every fiber of her existence. It irritates me. Then, one day, may ginawa akong nag-trigger sa lahat. Lahat ay nagbago. I realized I had awakened the devil from a deep, unbreakable slumber. And for the first time, I almost felt... entertained. [𝓘𝓽𝓾𝓽𝓾𝓵𝓸𝔂...]

The Unchosen Wife (Mature Content/Rated18) Levi Ackerman Fanfic by kanedemitri

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

The Gangster's Obsession [ON GOING] by blackblackblacky

"You can never run away from me.. " he said those words firmly while throwing daggers on me with his cold eyes. "X-xander.. H-how?.. How did you find me?" Napahikbi nalang ako sa sitwasyon ko ngayon. Wala na akong lakas pa para tumayo ng matuwid. "I didn't lost you." He said while looking at me intently, he stepped more closer till I felt the cold wall on my back. "I've been watching you.. All... This. Time.. " Before I lost my balance he grabbed me by my waist and hold me in his arms with those familiar pleasure. Napapikit nalang ako habang nasa matitipuno nyang dibdib ang mga kamay ko.. Ahhh.. How I miss being with his arms. I feel safe. Im happy. I fell inlove. "Don't let this mistake be the reason to provoke me again.. " He said with authority in his voice. "Or else... I'll kill you.. " paos nyang sabi sabay halik sakin nyang mariin. But now I feel danger. "Hmmm.. N-no please x-xander.. T-this is wrong! " I cried. But then he never did listen. He never did. That's why I left him.. "Stay still and be a good girl, hmm?.. " he said then kissed me roughly with his sinful lips. Napapakit nalang ako knowing the fact na hindi dapat ako nagpapaubaya. I hate it. I hate myself. I hate that no matter what I do to get rid of this feelings... I can't.. "You're mine.. " I just love him. So much. _____________________________________________ R-18 This story contains graphic depictions of violence, sexuality, strong languages and other mature contents. Read at your own risk!
