Love in the Dark

Hindi dapat nagtagpo ang mundo ni Lyra Salvacion at Draven Arguelles. Galing siya sa hirap, pinalaki ng isang inang halos hindi na umuuwi sa kakatrabaho, hanggang sa isang aksidente ang nag-iwan dito sa coma. Sa kawalan ng magulang at pag-asa, walang ibang matakbuhan si Lyra kundi si Draven, ang matalino, gwapo, at laging paborito ng lahat na anak ng mayamang pamilya Arguelles.

He gave her a scholarship. Paid the hospital bills. Stayed by her side when no one else did.

But nothing in Draven's world ever came without a price. Lumaki siya sa pamilya ng mga negosyante at pulitiko na may koneksyon sa sindikato, sanay sa kontrol, utang na loob, at kapalit. He was brilliant but broken, kind but possessive, charming but a little unhinged. He learned early that love was something to be earned, sometimes bought, and often taken.

As years passed, Lyra tried to repay his kindness with distance, with silence, with the quiet hope of freedom. Pero sa bawat pagsubok niyang lumayo, mas lalo siyang hinila pabalik ni Draven hanggang sa wala na siyang mapagpilian kundi ang manatili.

Now adults, she finds herself bound to Draven in a marriage she never wanted. Haunted by her mother's death, her father's absence, and the invisible debt that shaped her life, Lyra begins to question the very meaning of love and freedom.

Because even if Draven gave her everything, the house, the security, the world she once dreamed of, did he ever give her the chance to say no?

In a world ruled by power, money, and corruption, their love becomes both a refuge and a prison. She was his light. He was her darkness. And somewhere between devotion and destruction, they will learn that not all love can save, some love can only burn.
