Magical Encounter

Brix Manalo has it all-power, wealth, and the ruthless reputation of being "The Dark Lord of Kristina Jewelries." At only twenty-nine, he rules his empire with an iron hand and a cold stare. Employees fear him, applicants avoid him, and no assistant lasts more than a week under his impossible standards.

Until she came.

Klaurise De Guzman-blonde, bubbly, and undeniably talkative. The type of girl Brix should hate the most. And yet, for reasons he can't explain, he doesn't fire her. Instead, he keeps her profile.

In a world where they shouldn't even get along, fate forces them side by side-every day, in every meeting, in every stolen glance.

But the longer they work together, the thinner the line becomes between patience and fascination... between irritation and something much more dangerous.

Is Klaurise the one who can melt the walls of a man like Brix Manalo?

Or will his darkness be the reason she walks away?
