    In a world of full sacrifices, hindi naiiwasan na may mga bagay na mahirap isakripisyo. Sa murang edad, naging breadwinner ako, namulat sa buhay, na hindi lahat ay madaling makuha. Maaaring sa iba ay madali lamang makuha ang kanilang mga naiisin; pero sa mga kagaya kong kapos sa salapi, halos isang batalyon ang itataya makuha lamang ang ninanais. Dahil sa kakulangan ng sahod sa mga trabaho, napilitan akong maging personal assistant ng unico hijo ng pamilya Montairé. Nakilala ko si Silas, wala siyang sinasanto, lahat ng gusto niya ay nakukuha niya agad. Akala ko, masungit lang talaga siya, pero habang nakakasama ko siya sa araw araw, may bagay na naging rason kung bakit ninais ko siyang takbuhan. Sa bawat araw na lumipas na mag kasama kami, may mga bagay na nabunyag, may mga bagay na pilit itinago; pero walang siikretong hindi nabubunyag.

    📖 Survival Wasn't a Choice Description They were born into wealth. Protected. Loved. Untouchable. Until death took their parents - and betrayal took everything else. When their father's family and a trusted lawyer steal their inheritance, two sisters are thrown into a life they were never prepared for. The elder sister becomes the shield - silent, exhausted, determined to keep her younger sister alive at all costs. The younger sister, broken by hunger and anger, begins to resent the very person saving her. With no help and no mercy from the world, survival becomes a daily war. She steals. Not for greed. Not for thrill. But because hunger doesn't listen to morals. When a dangerous man notices her rare skills, she's pulled into a mission far bigger than survival - a hunt for a treasure only a true thief can reach. In a world where choices are luxuries, she learns one painful truth: Survival was never a choice. It was a sentence

    He was known as Cat Piss because of the pungent smell that emanated from his clothing. (This is not a book about kink although everyone assumes it is. In the process of editing so around chapter 11, you will see where the edits have stopped, but I will continue editing when I have time. Feel free to still read as the story will still make sense. written when I was around 17/18 so not one of my newest works as I'm 25, married and life has changed since Covid. Though I encourage feedback, thank you!)

    I was never well off in life, quite the opposite. Every dollar came from hard work, I barely got to enjoy the luxuries everyone else took for granted, falling asleep in front of the TV while watching your favorite show, going to the mall just because you want a new outfit, sleeping in on a weekend and taking things easy all day. For me I only got to fall asleep while sitting on the kitchen counter, worrying about next month's bills, I stressed over buying new clothes but a pair of jeans can only get so many rips in them, and weekends were even harder than the weekdays, stores were busier, more people were out and about leaving less time to get my thoughts together while at work. I found myself blaming my mother even though it wasn't her fault. It's not like she decided to get cancer and decided she was too sick to work only leaving me, a high school student, to drop out and start work early. It didn't matter anymore though, she was dead, and as cruel as it sounds, now I don't have to stress about hospital bills. As a high school dropout it was difficult to find good jobs, leaving me to work multiple minimum wage jobs at once. All hope seemed lost to me but a small glimmer shined through the clouds when I heard of an opening as a maid at the mansion on the rich side of town. It was the highest paying job I've ever qualified for and after listening to the rumors of how the owner is a psychopath, I figured I wouldn't have much competition for the spot. Whether that would be for better or for worse in the end. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [This is an AU] [Cover made by: TheDarkenIllusions]
