Stephanie and her older brother Caleb had been living with the Ong family for years, ever since a tragic car crash took their parents' lives. It was a devastating moment that changed everything. Steph had sustained a bruised leg and a bleeding arm from an open wound, while Caleb bore a deeper injury-a large wound that left a lasting scar. But the most painful wound they shared was the absence of their parents.
The Ongs, long-time friends of their family since high school, didn't hesitate to take the siblings in. Geo and Janice Ong, more commonly known online for their vlogs and adventures, had always been part of Stephanie and Caleb's lives. Even before the Ong family's rise to popularity, there had already been a bond formed through years of friendship.
With no one else to care for them - only a distant aunt abroad who couldn't take on the responsibility-Geo and Janice opened their home. They became second parents to the grieving siblings, offering not just a place to live, but a home filled with warmth, laughter, and purpose.
Since then, Stephanie and Caleb became part of the Ongs' everyday life. Whether it was joining family events, being included in vlogs, or going on spontaneous adventures, they were no longer just guests - they were family. Stephanie, in particular, slowly grew closer to Jeo, Geo's son. Their friendship had started off awkward, as Stephanie was too shy back then to connect easily. But over time, with shared routines, school, and countless moments together, their bond deepened.
Living with the Ongs wasn't just a change of environment - it was a new chapter of life. One that brought healing, unexpected adventures, and the feeling of belonging again.

THE HOUSEMAID'S SECRET
Samantha Eunice Del Mundo was only meant to serve, to sweep the floors he walked on, to prepare the meals he barely touched, to exist quietly in the background of Jeremiah Emmanuel Ong's life. To him, she was nothing more than a housemaid. Someone hired to tend, to care, to stay invisible. But silence has a way of speaking. In her quiet devotion, in the softness of her presence, something began to stir in Jeremiah's guarded world. He pushed her away, yet his heart betrayed him each time her tears slipped where she thought no one could see. He kept her at a distance, yet her absence left a strange emptiness he could not name. And so, in the quiet rhythm of their ordinary days, something unexplainable began to take root-not born of words or promises, but of glances, gestures, and unspoken ache. Sometimes, love doesn't come with grand beginnings. Sometimes, it blooms softly, in the places no one expects in the silence of a home, in the heart of a man who once refused to feel, and in the quiet strength of a woman who stayed. With memories a heart will never forget, can love survive when one heart longs in silence while the other hides behind coldness?Complete
Silk Sanctuary
Kim Taehyung witnessed the brutal ambush of his parents. Since that day, he's lived in what professionals call a "little space" - a mental retreat to cope with trauma. Jeon Jungkook, a member of an elite special task force, was assigned by his commanding officer to be Taehyung's personal bodyguard. He was hired to protect him. But in silk and silence, he found something worth saving. Because sometimes, love doesn't just protect it heals. This is a story about fragile minds, fierce loyalty, and the quiet power of love that blooms even in broken places.

In this imaginative world, genetic alteration allows for the possibility of male pregnancies and any other transformation may occur in between. The characters, places, and names are purely fictional, and any resemblance to real people, locations, or events is entirely coincidental.
