EXPLICIT THAN SERIES 2 RATED SPG ⚠️ Dale Kristelin Cendejas, a determined young woman from the quiet province of Surigao, took a bold step towards her dreams by traveling to Manila to take the entrance exam at the prestigious Manila University-her only chance at a free college education. Against all odds, she passed. To save money, her mother, who worked as a housemaid for a wealthy family, pleaded for Dale to be allowed to stay in the same household. In return, Dale agreed to help around the house whenever she didn't have classes. It was there that she met Lynx Dane Aguirre-a cold, distant young man, three years younger than her, whose mere presence carried an air of unapproachable arrogance. He rarely spoke, and when he did, his words were curt and sharp. But time has a strange way of unraveling walls. Slowly, Lynx's frigid demeanor began to thaw, revealing a burning fascination with Dale that she at first dismissed as fleeting curiosity. Until, without realizing it, she found herself surrendering to every lingering touch, unable to resist the gravity of his obsession. Now, trapped in a web of desire and danger, Dale must find a way to escape the hold he has over her-especially with the looming threat of an arranged marriage between Lynx and a woman from his elite world... a world where Dale will never belong.
