Beyond the Mask
Started: March 20, 2026 Ended: She died... but not completely. Valeria is back-this time, in her own body. No more pretending. She finally reclaimed what was hers. But everything she left behind? Hindi pa rin tapos. Fate has a cruel way of playing games... dahil muling pinagtagpo ang landas nila ni Alysandra-not as lovers, not as strangers-but as business partners. The same woman who once held her like she was everything... now looks at her like she's nothing. Alysandra is still trapped in the past-haunted by the love she lost, grieving the wife she thinks she buried... unaware that the soul she cried for is standing right in front of her. And Valeria? She knows the truth. She remembers everything. She feels everything... even the things she never dared to admit. But the question is- Should she tell Alysandra the truth? Or keep hiding behind a different kind of mask... forever? Because some truths don't just heal- they destroy. And some love... is better left buried. If the woman you loved died... but came back as someone else- would you still choose her... beyond the mask?Complete

The Villainess Rewrites Her Story
They once called her the Mad Dog of the South - the spoiled, short-tempered daughter of Duke Mortane. Feared by nobles, hated by the people, and foolishly obsessed with the Crown Prince who never loved her. Betrayed by her uncle. Framed by a false saint. Abandoned by the man she destroyed herself for. She died cursing her own foolishness... until the gods granted her one final mercy- to return to the past, one year before her ruin. This time, she'll play their game with her eyes open. She'll protect what's hers, crush those who deceived her, and rise from the ashes of her former self. Because this time... the villainess doesn't seek redemption-she rewrites her story.

Who will help her along the way? Will she even find help?
