18 parts Complete MatureUrban Fantasy | Forbidden Romance | Filipino Mythology
Ligaya "Lia" Rivera only signed up for a chill barkada hike-definitely not to stumble (literally) into a half-naked stranger in the middle of the woods. But from the moment she locks eyes with the mysterious, golden-eyed Gani, something shifts. The air thickens. The world quiets. And her reality? Never the same again.
What Lia doesn't know is that Isagani Silang is no ordinary man.
He's a Tikbalang prince, heir to an ancient forest throne, moonlighting as Uno-Metro Manila's undefeated, untouchable underground street racer.
Bound by duty, haunted by prophecy, and hunted by enemies of both magic and man, Gani was never meant to fall for a human.
Especially not her.
But fate doesn't care about rules.
And when city and forest collide-when stolen moments spark into something deeper, Lia finds herself tangled in a world of mythical beasts, hidden kingdoms, and sacred laws-one misstep away from danger.
Because in this world, love has a price.
And some truths, once uncovered, can unravel everything.
And Lia and Gani must decide. Will they fight for a love that could doom them both? Or walk away before the magic consumes them?
