His Assistant, His Obsession
Aira thought her new job as executive assistant would mean schedules and spreadsheets-not secrets and stolen glances. But her boss, Dario Virello, is no ordinary CEO. Beneath the tailored suits and cold commands lies the heir to a powerful mafia empire. As she's pulled deeper into his world, danger stalks every corner-and so does desire. Lines blur between professionalism and obsession, between loyalty and betrayal. He's used to control, but she's not so easily owned. In the heart of the city's most dangerous game, falling for the boss isn't just reckless-it might be deadly. But some temptations are impossible to resist. Small excerpt from the book I wanted to scream. I wanted to sob. And instead, I just said: "You don't even know me." He stepped closer. "No," he murmured. "But I see you." And then, without warning, he lifted his hand - gently - and touched the side of my face. His thumb brushed my cheek. Slow. Careful. Like he was touching something breakable. "You think I'm dangerous," he whispered. "You are," I breathed. His lips quirked. "Good." Then he leaned in - not a kiss. Not quite. But close enough that I could feel the heat of it. "I won't hurt you," he said. "But I'll destroy anything that tries to."Complete

In the nation's sprawling Capital City, where power is a currency and corruption paves the streets in gold, Lorenzo 'Enzo' Velasco lives a prince's life. As the son of a notoriously corrupt congressman, his future is set, his comfort guaranteed by money stolen from the very people his father swore to serve. But the gilded cage shatters when a preventable tragedy, a landslide born from his father's greed, claims the one person he truly loves: his idealistic sister, Sofia. Haunted by guilt and shattered by the truth, Enzo does the unthinkable. He turns his back on the Velasco empire, sheds his name like a borrowed coat, and vanishes. With only the cash in his pocket and a new identity, he journeys to the forgotten, mud scarred mountains of a remote province, the very community his family destroyed. There, among the victims of his family's crimes, he seeks a punishing penance, not in prayer, but in sweat, callouses, and the back breaking work of rebuilding what was lost. But in a town where the name 'Velasco' is a curse, anonymity is a fragile shield. As he fights to earn the trust of the resilient locals, he must confront the ghosts of his past and the escalating threat of his powerful father, who will stop at nothing to silence the truth. Can a son truly wash his hands of his father's sins? And in trying to save a community, can he redeem the one thing he has left, a borrowed name?Complete
BEHIND HIS HAZEL GAZE
Marahan akong umakyat sa hagdan, pinipigilang gumawa ng ingay. Tahimik na tahimik na ang buong mansion. Madilim na ang pasilyo sa second floor - alas-dose na rin kasi ng gabi. Pagdating ko sa tapat ng pinto ni Master Xavier, bahagya akong huminga nang malalim. Kumatok ako ng mahina, Nang marinig ko ang boses ni master na Pinapasok niya ako.. Aabutin ko na sana ng kamay ko ang doorknob, nang biglang bumukas ang pinto sa katabing kwarto.. Napalingon ako - at doon, nagtagpo ulit ang mga mata namin ni Master Alessandro. Sandali lang 'yon, pero parang tumigil ang oras. Bago pa ako makapagsalita, bigla niya akong hinila papasok sa kwarto niya. Hindi ko na nagawang mag-react - sa isang iglap lang, marahas na niya akong isinandal sa pinto. "A-Alessandro!!" gulat kong sabi, halos hindi makahinga ng maayos. Tinitigan niya ako nang mariin, 'yung titig na parang kaya akong basahin, kaya akong lamunin. Kinabahan ako. Ramdam ko ang panginginig ng kamay ko habang pilit kong itinulak ang dibdib niya. "B-bitawan mo ako..." halos pakiusap ko na. Ngunit imbes na makinig, bahagyang ngumisi si Alessandro - 'yung ngiting mahirap basahin kung galit ba o nang-aasar. At sa malamig na boses, dahan-dahan siyang sumagot, "Ayoko nga." ALESSANDRO VINZENZI STORY The unwanted sonComplete
