For love, would you play the role of the hero or the villain?
An unmasked serial murderer is on the run, and killings are taking place all over the country. What a bad moment for a girl named Skylar Millie Parker to return home after four years in Canada, quitting a well-paid job.
Unexpectedly, something happened on her way home when she met someone who would eventually lead her to an even better job opportunity from a prestigious family. Skylar accepted it without having a hint of the bigger trouble that would appear in her life in the form of a person; a woman named Hera Cythera Arentsvelt.
The stories about Cythera intrigued her, even without personally seeing the infamous head of the family as she's always locked in her room. Quiet and mysterious, hauntingly playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata.
But then the time finally came, and something unexplainable changed inside Skylar the moment she saw the woman behind that name...
"I remember vividly the first time I laid my eyes on you. You were wearing your purple robe with the same color as your eyes. I suddenly felt like everything around me had stopped, and you were the only one moving. Slowly taking the steps down the grand stairs. It felt like my breath got stuck in my throat, my heart pumping more blood than it should, and my head whispered to my ear...she looks ethereal."
Ngunit ano nga bang malaking gulo na dala ng dalaga sa buhay ni Sky? At ano ang katakot takot na sikreto nito ang siyang tuluyang magpapabago sa buhay niya at sa mga tao sa paligid niya? Worse than that, it looks like Cythera knows something about the infamous serial killer in town...
But is she the killer?
Anong kaya mong isugal para protektahan ang taong pinaka importante para sayo?

Trapped with the Cactus-Lover
"You're my betrothed." "Naliligaw ka, Miss." Inis na isasara ko na sana yung pinto ng humarang sya doon. "I don't think so. You're Terry Alcatraz right?" Terry has never been terrified all her life, ngayon lang. As she is now standing infront of a Goddess in the form of this woman with 5'10 height, pinkish white skin na hindi yata sanay sa araw, ash gray hair, at yung malalamlam na mga mata na akala mo laging inaantok. Am I still dreaming? "Sino ka ba?" "I'm your betrothed." Hay nako. May baliw na naman na naligaw. I pity her. Maganda nga. Baliw naman. "You got it wrong. Babae ako, Miss." Tsk. Bibigyan ka na nga lang din ng kapareha. Babae pa na mas maganda sayo at may saltik sa utak. Where's justice? "No. I'm in the right place. We're engaged." "Baliw ka ba?" Asar na tanong ko na sa kanya. Nauubos na ang pasensya ko dahil inaantok pa ko. Nagtatakang tiningnan ako ng mga matang kulay tsokolate na iyon. "Me?" Hinagod pa ako nito ng tingin mula ulo hanggang paa. "Shit, why am I trapped with you? I wonder. I could have atleast chose a better one. My toenails is way more appealing than you!" Ano daw?

They give and take." pagkatapos ay ngumiti ng pagkatamis tamis na akala mo santita. "Hmm. Bakit parang mas maganda pa sayo yung slippers mo? You could have bought a face too." Ano daw?

Vampires: Pieces of Arca
(Tagalog Story) A time when humans and vampires co-exist. How would Patricia detach herself from a bunch of Lartruses, the highest ranked creatures in the Vintrese, the vampires' mainland, especially when she was supposed to work with them in finding the missing pieces of Arca? /Excerp/ His hands and feet are all chained. Nakaupo siya sa gitna nito. Nahigit ko ang aking hininga nang magtagpo ang aming mga mata. Those blue orbs that I always find myself lost within, as cool as the calm sea, yet as dangerous as the snow storm. His face was void of any emotion, like he have been exhausted for days, numbed and thirsty. "Zedrick." "What took you so long, Patricia?" he gradually stood up. Pumunta siya sa direksyon ko. Sa bawat hakbang niya ay ang pagtunog ng tanikala sa kanyang mga paa. The chains emitted creepy sounds as it approach me. "Anong nangyari. . .Bakit-" naguguluhan kong tanong. Unti-unti akong lumapit sa kanya. "I'm freezing." his voice is as cold as ice. "Can't you come near?" he asked. I felt a weakness pulling me in as I walk towards him. I hold onto the rails. I know it's stupid of me to come nearer. But an uncertain force-like field brings me to the devil. Nakaharap na kami sa isa't-isa. Bigla na lamang akong namanhid na tila di ko na nararamdaman ang lamig. He lifted his hands and it reached my left cheek. Saglit akong napapikit. Pakiramdam ko ay nanindig ang mga balahibo ko sa batok. All I can feel is his gentle touch as he caresses it. "Will you release me? I might die anytime soon." he whispered. Napahawak ako sa kamay niyang nasa pisngi ko. He'll die? The side of his lips arched. Something flickered on his eyes. I believe their color changed! Hindi ko lang nahuli. I was still in awe when he held my hand tightly as he speaks, "But maybe one bite. . . will suffice." He wasn't even asking for permission. He was suggesting it to himself. Because deeply, he knows, I'll never escape his grip. Highest Ranking Achieved Vampires #25Complete
