Law Series #1

Elysia Naya Dela Fuente spent her life searching for belonging, burdened by her past. Yet fate keeps leading him back to Kael - the one who sees through her pain and stays. In him, Naya finds not just love, but home.

Naya spent her life resenting the rich, not because she's jealous of their lavish life. But because at a young age, she saw her parents lying on the floor, lifeless-soaked in their own blood, in their very own home. Ang bangungot na sinusundan siya palagi kahit ilang taon na ang nakalipas. Ang anino ng mga tao kung kanino nagmamakaawa ang mga magulang niya. Ang pagtangis ng mga magulang niya. Lahat naaalala niya. Since then, Naya vowed to never trust the elite, believing them to be cold-blooded monsters who trample over people like her parents for their own gain

Now in college, Naya is a top scholar - determined to build her future without relying on anyone. That's when she meets Kael Jericho Saavedra - an effortlessly charming, insufferable rich son to one of the country's biggest conglomerates. Kael is everything Naya despises : privileged, cocky, and untouchable. But what pisses her off the most is that Kael seems genuinely interested in her.

Kael keeps approaching her, drawn to her intelligence and wit. While Naya tries to push him away, Kael only gets more persistent. Noong una, akala ni Kael na pagkahumaling lang ito, but soon, he realizes it's something even more deeper - an aching desire to understand why Naya looks at him with so much hatred.
