This is part of Sierra Series. Story of Ethan Sierra. Seraphina Valencia was once a good girl with a life full of joy, surrounded by her childhood crush Ethan Sierra and suitor Liam Reyes. But her world crumbled when her father’s affair tore her family apart. After losing her mother in a tragic accident, Seraphina’s father brought his mistress and her daughter, Kendra, into their home, leaving Seraphina with nothing—not her family, home, or dignity. Forced into an arranged marriage with Darius Bernardo, separated from Liam, and treated as a servant in her own house, Seraphina’s pain pushed her to the edge. Will Seraphina find the strength to fight for the love she’s always dreamed of, or will she let the shadows of her past keep her from happiness? Will she seek revenge on those who hurt her? Or she will get swayed by the love she never thought still existed?

Shadows of the Heart (Ethan Sierra) 81 - Fall
ETHAN SIERRADays have passed and our school year has ended. I immediately went to Manila for the training. Pagkarating ko sa mansyon ni Lolo ay isang malakas na sampal ang natanggap ko.“You’re helping the Valencias?!” Sigaw nito na halos pumutok na ang ugat nito sa leeg dahil sa galit. Hinila ako ni Yael palayo kay Lolo. “It doesn’t mean he’s helping Gabriel Valencia, Lo. You know how close he is to his child. At walang kasalanan si Sera sa nangyayari sa mga magulang niya. She’s innocent!” “Yes, she’s innocent. But that doesn’t mean you have to help them. Baka nakakalimutan mo kung magkano ninakaw ng lalaking iyon sa’tin, Ethan. And now you’re investing in their company. Are you fucking insane? Sa papaluging kompanyang iyon?!”Nagtangis ang panga ko sa sinabi ni Lolo. He has the right to get mad. I invested his money in Sera’s Furnitures Company—but that money is from working hard as a trainee. Hindi naman ako basta-basta nag-iinvest ng gano’ng kalaking halaga kung alam kong hindi

ETHAN SIERRAI felt uneasy when Sera didn’t show up at school for days. The longer she was gone, the more restless I became.So I went to her house.Manang was the one who greeted me at the door, her expression heavy with concern. “Nasa ospital sila Ethan,” she said. “Nakunan si Sarah. Pwede mo namang puntahan, pero uuwi na rin sila bukas.”Something inside me tightened.I didn’t waste time—I went straight to the hospital. But when I got there, I found myself unable to move forward.Sera sat in the hallway, her hands folded neatly on her lap, her posture still. Too still.She looked lost.Her mother wouldn’t even speak to her, and she didn’t push. She just sat there, her face void of emotion. Then, as if sensing someone watching her, she let out a deep sigh and forced a smile—one that didn’t reach her eyes. As if nothing had happened.But I knew better.And this—this was exactly why I didn’t want to lose her smiles.Because I knew how quickly her world could fall apart. And if I could

ETHAN SIERRAI was sitting under a coconut palm tree, flipping through the pages of my book while the waves crashed against the shore. The birds were humming, and the wind made the trees sway, their leaves rustling softly. It was calm, peaceful—one of those moments where everything just felt right—or just I thought so.“Ayoko pa kasing umuwi, Mama! Ayoko!” Sigaw ng batang babae at mabilis na tumatakbo palayo sa tinatawag niyang mama.She’s small, but runs like a cheetah. Hingal na hingal ang Mama niyang napahinto habang ang kamay ay nakasenyas sa bata na lumapit sa kanya.Pero inilabas niya lang ang dila niya sa Mama niya at nakwembot pa. Hindi ko mapigilang matawa dahil ang cute niyang tignan.“Seraphina, please. I still have a lot of work to do, hmm? Listen to Mama, okay?” Hinihingal pa rin ang ginang habang tuwang-tuwa naman ang babae at hindi pa rin natigil sa pagkembot.“Mama naman kasi! Ayoko nga. Hindi na sana tayo nagpunta dito kung magtatrabaho ka lang. You didn’t bring me he

Ilang araw nang nagdaan simula nang ayaw nila akong papuntahin sa ospital kung saan naka-confine si Darius. They want me to stay away from him as much as possible. Ilang araw ko na ding hindi pinapansin sila Ethan dahil sa masama pa rin ang loob ko sa kanila. Darius almost died! Mamamatay siya kung hindi lang siya naagapan agad. But I heard critical siya kaya hindi ko alam kung he’s still in unconscious state or what.Narinig ko ang pagbukas ng pintuan ng silid ko maging ang mga yabag na papalapit nito sa’kin.“You should eat, Sera… Dalawang araw ka nang hindi kumakain,” bakas ang pag-aalala sa boses ni Ethan, pero hindi ko siya pinansin. I was busy planning on how to take Mara down. I was now on the verge of revenge and no one could stop me. Not even Ethan.“Gusto kong lumabas. If you care for me, hahayaan mo ako, Ethan.” “And then what? To watch you gone again, Sera? What do you want? Ang tuluyan kang mapatay ng kung sino mang gusto kang patayin? Do you think I will let that happe

Tama na!” Sigaw ni Ate Caelyn mula sa loob ng kanyang kwarto. Mabilis akong nakatakbo papunta sa kanyang kwarto nang makarinig ako ng sigawan at labis na lang ang gulat ko nang makitang nakababa ang pantalon ni Papa at sapilitang hinuhubad si Ate Cae.“Bilisan mo, Cae! Saglit lang ito,” parang demondyo ang boses ni Papa nang marinig ko ang boses nito. Nanginig ako. Gusto kong tumakbo dahil sa nasaksihan ko. But Ate Cae is suffering. Our dad wants t

“Ah,” aniya saka ako muling tinignan. Napatawa siya saglit bago magsalita. “I realize that you didn’t have too, Sera! There’s someone who’s willing to spill blood on his hand for your sake!” Palakas ng palakas ang tawa niya. Nakakairita. Nakakabingi. Pero hindi ko magawang magalaw ang buo kong katawan. Maging takpan ang mga tenga ko para hindi ko marinig ang tawa niya. No… Ethan won’t do that… He won’t risk everything just for me. Muling lumapit si Darius sa’kin. Napaupo siya at nagulat na lamang ako nang iangat niya ang suot kong gown at hinaplos ang balat ko. “Hindi naman masama kung tikman kita, right, Sera? Hindi pwedeng si Darius lang. Total, kasal naman kayo, right?” Nakangisi niyang tanong at idinampi ang kanyang labi sa hita ko. Napasinghap ako at pilit kong manlaban pero parang tinakasan ako ng lakas ko dahil sa mga nalaman ko. Tahimik na lamang akong umiiyak habang nakahiga sa kama at patuloy lang siya sa paghahaplos ng hita ko at paghahalik roon hanggang umabot iyon s

Nanghihina ang mga tuhod ko na siyang mabilis namang naalalayan ni Ethan dahil sa mga nangyayari ngayon. He seems desperate. Gusto ni Ethan na gawin ang lahat. For what? To claim me again? Umiling ako sa sinabi niya pero mabilis akong natigilan nang ilapat ni Ethan ang kanyang labi sa labi ko at mapupusok akong hinalikan. Mas lalong nanghina ang tuhod ko at kung hindi ako yakap ni Ethan at nakakapit sa mga braso niya ay malamang nasa sahig na ako. Ilang beses ko siyang tinutulak pero lumalalim lang ang kanyang halik at pilit binubuka ang bibig ko. Lasap na lasap ko ang alak sa kanyang bibig. I knew it. He was drunk. Pero kahit na alam kong wala sa katinuan si Ethan ay nagawa ko pa ring tugunan ang halik niya. It was hot and felt surreal. I badly miss him. I badly miss my Ethan. Tila natauhan ako nang maramdaman ko ang kamay niyang gumapang sa bewang ko hanggang sa hinaharap ko. This time, I pushed him harder than I could. Natumba si Ethan at napadaing siya nang tumama ang lik

It’s been a week since the last time I saw Liam and Ethan. Mabuti na rin ng sa gano’n ay hindi ako ma-distract sa mga kailangan kong gawin.“Miss Mildred, Mr. Darius Gavillo is here,” ani Marlene na siyang sekretarya ko.Inayos ko ang upo ko pero nang bumukas ang pintuan ay napatayo rin ako agad nang makitang may dalang bulaklak si Darius. It was a rose. A bouquet of roses with wine in his left hand.“Congrats, my love,” aniya saka lumapit sa’kin at hinalikan ako sa pisngi.“Thank you,” nakangiting tugon ko at tinanggap ang bulaklak na dala nito.I had an investment deal with a famous artist this morning. It was a big help for me and for my company to expand more not just in London and in the Philippines, but also around the world. Hindi lang naman kasi tungkol sa pagpapalago ng kompanya ang main goal ko at sumikat, I also value nature. Kaya lahat ng projects at furnitures namin ay gawa lahat iyon mula sa basura na nakukuha ng mga tauhan ko mula sa mga dagat, ilog, kalsada at kung sa

I rested my head on my desk as I stared at Ethan, who’s quietly reading his book. Wala itong ibang ginagawa kun’di magbasa ng magbasa lang. Ilag rin sa mga tao—stupid people to be exact. Ayaw na ayaw niya ng gano’ng tao, well except for me.“Tantan! Lunch! Let’s go!” nakangiting saad ko sa kanya sabay hila ng kamay nito para mapatayo siya sa kinauupuan niya.“I’m not hungry.” Malamig nitong wika.I leaned closer to his face, but he didn’t flinch. Sanay na ito sa paganito ko sa kanya, kaya hindi na ito nagugulat pa. Ngumiti ako sa, tsaka ko pinitik ang noo niya. Napapikit siya, at huminga ng malalim, halata ang inis sa mukha niya ng gawin ko iyon sa kanya. I giggled when I saw that he’s controlling his anger towards me. Hindi niya naman magawang nagalit sa akin, ako pa.“I told you, Sera, I’m not hungry.” Ngumuso ako sa kanya pero hindi ako nagpatalo. I grabbed his book and immediately ran outside of our classroom. Narinig ko pa ang pagsigaw nito sa pangalan ko, kaya sumilip ako sa kan...
