"We'll only have sex once a month, and that's solely to produce an heir. You won't interfere in my business, and I won't interfere in yours. You will be my wife in every sense and you will not be involved with any other man," he said, arrogance seeping from every word. I watch his mouth move, with arrogance evident in the way he talks. I'm not ready to fall in love with any man, especially not one as arrogant and egoistic as him. I can handle acting as a loving couple, and as for intimacy once a month, I can agree to that just to satisfy my sexual cravings with no strings attached. "Where can I sign?" I asked since I had nothing to lose. *************** Nadine's wedding dreams turned to nightmares when she caught her sister and fiancé cheating! With a secret recording, she's ready for revenge.

"I've had thousands of dreams of you torturing me in my sleep, so if you think your rejection will ever change how I feel about you or discourage me from my quest of winning your heart back, then the only thing that will save you is my death." He leaned closer. "I will never give up on you. Not until I make you my wife again." I scoffed. "I would rather die from thirst than get back to you for a glass of water," I gritted my teeth. He leaned down to my ear, causing goosebumps on my skin and a shiver down my spine. "You will always be mine, Darla.

Minsan ay nakasasama sa atin ang maling akala-akala mo ay wala na siyang nararamdaman sa'yo. Akala mo ay ayaw na ng lahat sa'yo. Akala mo ay wala na silang pakialam sa sarili mo. Puro na lang 'akala ko'. You want him back. You want her back. But the question is, will you listen to your own heart? Or will you listen to your mind which gives you the craziest imagination you ever expected?

Just as Justin proposed to me, a phone call interrupted him. Standing close by, I clearly heard the voice on the other end of the line. “Justin, I’m hurt. My leg hurts so much!” Justin snapped the ring box shut and looked at me. “Alice is injured. I’ll have to do this another time.” With those words, he sprinted away, leaving everyone around us staring in astonishment. I had never met Alice, but her presence lingered in every corner of our lives.  At meals, Justin would mention her fondness for sweet desserts.  When I dressed, I came to know her love for soft lavender hues. I argued, I wept, I lashed out, but Justin always countered with the same line. “You’re so jealous. Everyone has their first love. She’s my past, but you’re my future.” So, I turned to a man who had once called me his first love—Quentin—and made a bold proposition. “Let’s get married.”

Unrequited love is the worst. It never quenches your thirst. When you love someone the most, but they treat you like a ghost. You don't exist to them, even if they're your gem. It hurts your heart and tears you apart. _________________________________________ She loves him and he loves another, but he loves her too. He loves her and she loves another, but perhaps he is wrong. Maybe he's the one she actually loves. So, who does she love more? Mahendra or Vikram?
