“Oopsiedaisy! Can’t let you die on me after I finally found you, eh, fated mate?” My so-called savior stopped me from doing the one logical way to end my suffering.

"Parang awa niyo na itigil niyo na to."- pagmamakaawa ng isang dalaga Ngunit wala man lang siyang ibang narinig kundi puro tawanan. Kitang kita niya sa mga mukha ng mga taong nasa harap niya ang mga ngisi sa kanilang mga labi. 'Kahit maubos pa ang boses mo kakasigaw Crystal walang makakarinig sayo dito hanggang sa mamatay ka."- nakangiting wika ng babae na nasa harapan niya. "Teka teka sandali! Sandali lang Yessie. Wala sa plano to."- pagpigil ng isa pang boses. Halos hindi na matingnan ni Crystal kung sino ito. 'And so? You think I care? She deserve it! Sge deserve to die!!."- puno ng kaseryosohan na saad ni Yessie. 'Sinusumpa ko maybabayad kayo! Pagbabayaran niyo ang ginawa niyong to. Hindi ko kayo papatahimikin!'- nakakakilabot na sigaw ng dalaga kahit na nahihirapan na ito. 'Talaga? Sa tingin mo mangyayari pa yun? Sa tingin mo magagawa mo pa yun? Hahaha! Huwag kang magpatawa! Ito na ang huling gabing masisilayan mo ang mundo. Paalam Crystal! Rest well darling.'- ngising sabi nito at walang ka abog abog na hinampas ng kahoy ang kamay dahilan para mapabitaw ito at malaglag. Halos hindi ako makahinga sa nakita. I'm so sorry! Paano nga ba matatapos lahat ng to kung hindi nila alam kung sino ang totoong kalaban? Buhay ang kinuha at buhay din ang magiging kapalit. Pinaglalaruan ng isang tinig! Boses na nakakapangilabot. Paulit ulit na naririnig at kapag narinig mo ito magtago kana, dahil ikaw na ang susunod. "Tagu-taguan maliwanag ang buwan, pagbilang ko ng tatlo nakatago na kayo. isa, dalawa, tatlo. Pag nahuli ko ay papatayin ko" Pag narinig mo ang katagang yan ay magtago kana. Run and hide as fast as you can. Save yourself before it's too late. Killer is here, death is everywhere. Be careful who you trust. Tik tak Tik tak...

[WARNING: SPG] Gwapo, playboy at malakas ang appeal. Iilan lang iyan sa mga katangian ng bilyonaryong si Kian Fuentavilla kaya napakaraming babaeng nagkakadarapa sa kanya—maliban kay Jhymea Madrigal. Isang dalagang manang kung manamit at madalas pang napagkakamalang lola at mambabarang. Panget si Jhymea, at aminado naman siya roon, pero para sa kanya ay may karapatan pa rin naman siyang mamili kaya inayawan niya si Kian na kahit mala-Adonis na ang datingan ay ubod naman ng yabang. Unang pagkikita pa lang ng dalawa ay nagkairingan na sila. Labis na dinibdib ni Jhymea na tinawag siyang ‘janitress’ at ‘ipis’ ng binata at ganun din si Kian sa kanya nang mapunit ang pwètan ng slacks nito dahil sa dalaga. Halos isumpa nila ang isa't isa hanggang napagdesisyunan ng kapatid ni Kian na si Nexie Fuentavilla na mag one-night stand silang dalawa. Kapalit nun ay ang impormasyong hinihingi ni Kian tungkol sa ex niyang si Tanya, at pera naman para kay Jhymea para mapauwi na niya sa bansa ang ina niyang OFW na kay tagal niyang ‘di nakasama. Dahil sa pagiging maloko ni Kian ay pinalabas niyang nabutas ang còndom na ginamit niya sa pakikipagtalik sa dalaga. Ilang linggo iyong iniyakan ni Jhymea kasi ang buong akala niya ay hindi na siya makaka-graduate, ngunit nahuli niya ang binata nung minsan ay may kausap ito sa telepono at inamin nito ang lahat. Doon ay naisip na gumanti ni Jhymea at pinalabas na totoong nabuntis nga siya ng binata. Nakarating ang tsismis na yun sa ina ni Kian na si Mrs. Anita Fuentavilla. Nagkukumahog na nagpaliwanag ang dalawa na hindi totoo ang lahat pero huli na kasi nagawan na sila ng kontrata ng ginang sa nalalapit nilang kasal. Matakasan kaya nila ang kapalarang nagsimula sa isang laro lamang? O mauuwi na ang lahat sa totoong pag-iibigan?

To make money and support the little life growing inside me, I took a part-time job as a maternity model. But when I got there, I realized I was trapped in a glass cage, put on display like a product. And in the crowd below, my ex-mate, Damon, watched me with nothing but contempt in his eyes. "Whose bastard is it?" "How could you say that? This is your child, Damon!" Damon's eyes turned red—a sign of an impending werewolf frenzy. He held up a paternity test in front of me. It showed that the baby I was carrying was not his. "No, that can’t be true.” I stammered. “This must be a mistake! " Before Damon could respond, a man beside him spoke, "Alpha Damon, the auction is about to start. If you have anything to say, you can do so after the auction." Auction? Kelly had clearly told me this was just a photoshoot.
