SIN & HONEY (Mikhaiah/Mekaya Story)
When Mikha Lim, a rebellious bartender with a bad reputation, is hired to work at an exclusive high-end club, she doesn't expect to catch the attention of Aiah Arceta, a cold and powerful CEO known for her ruthless business tactics. Aiah is used to control-over her company, her image, and most of all, her emotions. But Mikha? She's temptation in its rawest form: a challenge, a risk, a storm she never saw coming. What starts as a dangerous game of teasing glances and stolen touches quickly spirals into something neither of them can resist. Aiah finds herself craving Mikha in ways she's never craved anyone, and Mikha? She's addicted to the way Aiah falls apart under her touch. But love isn't easy when secrets, power, and control are in play. And when Aiah's carefully built world starts to crumble, will she fight for Aiah-or will she run from the one thing she can't control? Mikha leans in, her breath hot against Aiah's ear. "Tell me you don't want this," she whispers, fingers trailing down the silk of Aiah's dress. Aiah grips the edge of the bar, knuckles white, her body betraying her as she shudders. "I don't-" But the lie dies on her lips as Mikha presses against her, lips barely grazing her neck. "Then stop me," Mikha challenges. But Aiah doesn't stop her. Instead, she lets herself drown in the fire Mikha ignites-because for once in her life, she's tired of being in control. But the deeper they fall, the harder it is to tell... Is this love? Or just a beautifully crafted destruction? In a world where power is everything, surrendering to temptation might just cost them both their lives. Disclaimer: This is a work of pure fiction.

Threads of the Heart
In a world where tradition still holds power, two extraordinary women find themselves caught in a pact made long before they understood the meaning of love. Mariah Queen Arceta, known to the public as Aiah, is a 24-year-old fashion powerhouse. As the CEO and founder of the globally celebrated clothing brand ARC, she has built an empire with elegance, grace, and quiet determination. Known for her ethereal beauty and demure presence, Aiah is often described as soft-spoken and kind a true modern muse. Behind her success, however, lies a life dictated by responsibility and familial expectation. Mikhaela Janna Lim, or Mikha, is a prodigy in the medical field. At just 23, she is the youngest Cardiothoracic surgeon in the Philippines and already heads her department at St. Luke's Global City. Calm, composed, and enigmatic, she's often called the "Face Card" of the hospital not just for her striking, androgynous beauty but for the way she commands a room.

Their lives, so different yet equally intense, collide when a long-standing agreement between their families resurfaces: an arranged marriage neither of them expected nor wanted. Thrown into a commitment built on legacy rather than love, Aiah and Mikha must navigate their growing bond while balancing careers, public expectations, and the question of what love truly means when it's written into fate. But as secrets are revealed and walls begin to fall, will this unexpected union become the greatest love story neither of them saw coming?Complete
