Chapter: Chapter 76: Through Love and Instinct"So, what's your plan now?" I said as I swing my sword towards his direction.He easily evaded it as he laughed at my question. "To tell you honestly, I don't have any sort of plans or goals." he laughed as he pushed me using his sword, "I just want to live a peaceful life.""You could stay here." I quickly bend down when I saw him powerfully swinging his sword horizontally towards me. "I mean, you should. Your father's here. You could do whatever you want to do as you stay here too."Tyler chuckled and shakes his head. "You are so different from your father when you're like this." he jumped away from me as he threw some daggers towards me. "Your father wouldn't easily forgive someone who has done wrong to him. At least that's how I knew him based on the stories."It was my turned now to laughed at him as I threw some daggers to him. "He's not like that at all. I mean that's what Priam told me." I said grinning as I saw him having a hard time evading my a

Chapter: Chapter 75: Victory"How.. co-could you.. d-do this.. to me?" I said as I felt a burning sensation all through out my entire body. "I've trust..I've trusted you.."My eyes laid to Austin's crying face. She is trembling and I could see the fear plastered on her pale face. She looks so miserable as she keeps on struggling, trying to escape from the tight rope that is tied around her body.It was too tight to the point of it almost dragging her skin every time she would move or squirm, trying to get out from it."Sh-Shaun.. " she whispered in between of her weeps. "I-I'm.... I'm scared." and then she finally burst out crying.Her eyes were all swollen and puffy. Her face is a mess.I clenched my fists and turned to glared at Veto, "How could.. " I couldn't continue what I want to say as I shake tremendously, from the tip of my toes to the tip of my hair."Well.." Veto bend down and smile to me, "the same reason as to why I killed you father." he said

Chapter: Chapter 74: Lycaea: The Final Phase (part 2)Lycaea.It was a ceremony to honor the alpha and the coming king of the kingdom. For Arcadians, it is the most important gathering everyone has been waiting.To give their loyalty to their alpha, to honor his existence and to give their life in the service of their chief, there's no other things that they could've ever ask for.But unlike any other ceremony and gatherings inside the kingdom, Lycaea is only allowed to the members of the Executives as well as to the higher-ranking officials of the kingdom.So, the question is, why would the kingdom, especially Veto, would agreed to the trouble of setting up such an important ceremony for Shaun?Given the fact that he is the only child of the former king, Lycaon. He was supposed to be the heir, and that is not a secret to the entire kingdom. So, in order to somehow give respect to that thing, Veto needed to proceed with it.And he badly need to make it for he desire even greater p

Chapter: Chapter 73: Lycaea: The Final Phase (part 1)When Priam told me years ago that I was not his child and that someday, I would fulfill an important role given to me and would lead a huge kingdom in the future, I find it rather ridiculous and impossible than the feeling of being honored. I even told him that, how could a unique and indifferent child could lead something even greater and bigger than myself. How could a child with no clear origin be able to influence others and make them accept his leadership?How could I? But Priam just laughed at me as he caressed my head that time. He looked at me with a fatherly smile on his face and said, "Shaun, you're future is already determined even before you were born. Only you and the person you are destined to meet could only change that fate." he said and gave me a tapped on my back, "But I know, you would be able to change that fate, because unlike someone I know, you have a huge heart and personality to do so. And I would always watch your back until that time

Chapter: Chapter 72: Fifth PhaseI didn't know I would regret something I myself had chosen. No one really forced me to do it, but I felt like I was deceived and played. "Oh? Is that all you can do?" her voice rings into my ear. It feels so irritating and annoying. She's one of the beautiful woman I have seen here in the kingdom. Her pale skin looks so beautiful on her.She looks so surreal, almost like a heroine straight from a comic strip. Her long hair is really magnificent and soft. I wonder how can she moved that fast with that massive and long hair. "Lady Austin, is that all you can do that?" she said almost laughing, "and you dare to say you would stay with the prince forever? That must have been an impossible dream you have there, lady." she smirked as she crossed her arms over her chest. She looked down on me, almost collapsing to the ground with an annoying smile on her face. It feels as if she was judging me with those pair of eyes. And I really hate them looking at

Chapter: Chapter 71: Before the Banquet (part 2)"I heard from Lupus that you've improved, Shaun." Tyler said as he swing his sword to Shaun's direction."I mean, he looked so happy when we got to talked about it. He looked like a proud father for his son, so much that it makes all the hair on my arms and legs to raised and wave."The side of Shaun's mouth moves a little upwards as he shielded his self from Tyler's attacks with his sword. "Lupus is just overreacting." Shaun said running away from Tyler. "Well.. Should I say I did?" he said, almost laughing as he continues to evade and escapes, shielding his self from Tyler's cruel attacks with no intention of stopping. "Lupus.. was all jolly.. and all smiles when he.. talked about it." Tyler said as he continue on attacking while Shaun continues on evading and shielding. "You know the old man. He gets all happy over simple things." Shaun finally let out a surprise attack to Tyler. Tyler's cheeks were scratched and wounded a little bit.

Twisted
“Ito na ko, Autum. Hindi mo na pwedeng baguhin. I’m messed up, chaotic and twisted. I’ve been like this for so long, it’s not like kaya kong biglang baguhin ang lahat para lang sayo.” malungkot na saad niya habang diretsong nakatingin sakin ang mga mata niyang napupuno na unti-unti ng luha.
“Phoe-”
“No, Autumn. I really understand. Ganyan ka, ganito ako. We are two different beings, maybe you won’t ever understand me, so do I. So whatever your decision will be, I’ll gladly accept it. I will respect it, we will respect it. Ganoon ka kahalaga. Ganoon kita kamahal. It’s your call. Whether you would be willing to get tangled up into this mess and damaged world of mine or would rather stay outside.” dagdag niya pa at saka ko iniwan sa gitna ng malawak na park na ‘to.
He’s a prince living in the modern world. He got money, lots of it. Fame, status, perfect image and his perfectly carved features. Lahat na ata nasa kanya pero may isang sikreto lang siyang maingat na itinatago na di sinasadyang nalaman ko.
Apparently, he’s messed up and twisted. Literally.
Could I accept those dark and twisted sides of him? Would I ever be comfortable loving someone like him na minsan hindi ko alam kung sino ba talaga?
He’s Phoenix Alcantara. A 28-year-old CEO of two large corporations. And I am Autumn Taylor. And this is the story of our twisted and messed up love story.

Chapter: Chapter 4: PunishmentPhoenix's POV"Ano ka ba!?" malakas na sigaw ni Emman sa akin pagkapasok namin sa kwarto.Isang oras din yata ang itinagal ng meeting na yon, malapit na nga akong makatulog sa upuan ko kanina, buti na lang at nandun si Emman para magalit at yugyugin ako.Agad na dumiretso ako sa corner table ko at nagsalin ng brandy sa aking baso."I said what are you doing?!" sigaw na naman ni Emman sa akin. "Do you really want those people to know your secret? Do you!?" nanlalaking matang sigaw niya.Agad akong napatingin sa kanya at bahagya pang natawa. "I know it will never be good to let them discover that but.. like what I've said, I actually would not mind. I just need to capture that goddamn dirty rat before I let out that 'secret'.""Hindi nila dapat na malaman kahit pa mahuli mo na siya," kunot-noong wika ni Emman. "After you catch that goddamn traitor, you should take it slow and listen to me well!" muling sigaw niya at saka inis na ibinato sa akin ang hawak niyang ballpen na madali ko naman

Chapter: Chapter 3: The ChairmanThird Person POVNaiinis man sa ginawang paggising ni Emman sa kanya, mabilis na kumilos na si Phoenix upang ayusin ang kanyang sarili. Ayaw niyang paghintayin pa ng husto ang board of directors at group of investors na paniguradong bwisit na bwisit na sa kanya. Ang Alcantara Corporation and Group of Companies ang pinaka mayamang korporasyon hindi lamang sa Grindle kung hindi sa buong bansa. Binubuo ito ng ilang five-star hotels, restaurant, banks, trading at kung ano-ano pa. Ang Alcantara rin ang pinaka kilalang supplier ng motor and computer parts sa buong bansa. Parang may kung anong swerte nga naman ang Alcantara Corporation at kahit na anong pasukin nitong negosyo ay lumalago, lalo na nang si Phoenix na ang tumayo bilang CEO at Chairman ng kompanya at ng korporasyon ilang taon na ang nakakalipas. "What will those good-for-nothing men do this time? Talk about my so called 'family'? My image or maybe their plan to take me down? Tss. Two hours? Marahil ay nagngingitngit na sila s

Chapter: Chapter 2: Her Present Autumn's POV"Ano na Autumn!?" malakas na sigaw ng editor ko sa akin sabay hampas din sa lamesang pumapagitan sa aming dalawa. Halos makita ko na ang utak niya sa laki ng pagkakabukas ng ilong niya. Magkahalong inis at galit ang nakikita ko sa kanya ngayon at sobrang kaba ang nararamdaman ko lalo na at ayokong matanggal sa trabaho ko bilang isang journalist dito sa Alire Points. AP ang pinaka sikat na news agency sa buong siyudad ng Alire o baka nga sa buong bansa pa, mapa dyaryo o online platform man yan, Alire Points ang nangunguna. Pahirapan na nga ang pagkakapasok ko dito at isang malaking salamat na rin sa apelyido kong kilala na sa industriya ng pamamahayag. Paniguradong nakakalungkot at nakakawasak ng puso kung sakaling alisin nila ako sa agency. At ayokong mangyari yon dahil hindi yon ang ipinangako ko kay daddy. Mabilis na tinignan ko si Mr. Ramos sa gilid ng mga mata ko habang hindi inaangat ang ulo ko. Sa totoo lang, kakasya na nga yata ako sa butas ng ilong niyang nanlal

Chapter: Chapter 1: His PastPhoenix's POV “Sino ka ba!? Sino ka ba!?” paulit-ulit niyang sambit habang patuloy na sinusuntok ang mukha ko. “Wala kang kwenta! Katulad ka lang ng nanay mo!”Isa. Dalawa. Tatlo. Hindi ko na mabilang kung ilang beses na bang tumama sa aking mukha ang matitigas na kamao niyang lalo pang pinatitigas ng galit at poot na hindi ko rin naman alam kung para sa akin. Ilang beses na rin naman niya akong nasasaktan, kahit noon pa man, pero kakaiba ang isang ito. Bawat suntok niya ay may galit. Bawat sampal at igkas ng kanyang malalapad na kamay ay parang bakal na siyang tumatama sa bawat parte ng aking katawan, na hindi lang pasa at sugat ang iniiwan, parang may kung ano ito na unti-unting dumudurog sa aking pagkatao. Bawat palo ay ipinararamdam niya sa akin na isa akong basura. Bawat sakit na mararamdaman ko tuwing lalatay sa aking katawan ang galit niyang mga kamay ay parang may piraso rin ng pagkatao ko ang nadudurog at nasisira.At hindi ko alam kung mabubuo ko pa ba. Malakas niya akon
