Not all was rosy in the paradise. Athena’s past and the complex situation of both their familial ties was soon coming back to bite them hard and shatter their dreams of “happily ever after”. What is the big secret? Why is Athena trying to run from her past? What does the future hold for both of them? Every person has a skeleton in their closet.

 I was married to this sexy hot chic. Nung sinabi ni Dad at Lolo na ipagkakasundo niya ako sa babaeng yun ay hindi na ako nagpatumpiktumpik pa at pumayag agad sa alok nila. Isa pa maganda na nga, sexy at hot pa ang mapapangasawa ko. Kaya nga hindi ko lubos maisip kung bakit nangangamba ang mga Montefalco sa anak nila. Sabi nila baka daw hindi mag asawa ang anak nila at maging tomboy ito. Fck! Sa ganda at sexy niyang yan nangangamba silang maging tomboy yun? Eh baka 'pag nakita niya itong walong abs ko ay magwala na yan. Pero napaurong ang dila ko nang malaman ko ang kinakatakutan nila at pinangangambahan. Mukhang tomboy nga ito eh! Damn! I was just married to my wife, not just an ordinary wife but fck, to an EXTRAORDINARY WIFE!  Lolo, Daddy pwede pa bang mag backout?

The evening wind and tranquility wiped away all the chaos that had been filling my mind for the preceding few days. It felt as though I had been granted a second opportunity at life, akin to that of a newborn kid. I'd always wanted to feel that way for so long, and that night was a very captivating time for me to begin with. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, feeling the breeze brush against my skin as I relived all the horrific events that had occurred. All the turmoil that seemed to escape reappeared in an instant. Tears rush down my cheeks as I feel my body shudder as a dreadful understanding dawns on me. It feels as if every second of my existence has been squandered, and as if the sense of despair and worry has taken over the little strand of sanity that exists for me as it pours through my veins and fills my spirit to the core. "You've got this. All you have to do is think that you can," I said to myself persuasively. "You can't, you just can't. You'll never be able to do it, and you'll have to live with the repercussions for the rest of your life," a familiar voice said. My senses begin to be overpowered by numbness. And with that, I realized I could not go away. The reality that this is my fate hits me like a ton of bricks. As I stretched out to wipe away all my tears, I felt thick moisture on my fingers and was terrified to find blood instead of tears. I felt as if my world was spinning before I could even scream. Then, all of a sudden, darkness crept inside me. And eventually sends me to oblivion.

Nang dahil sa pagkasawi ng mga magulang na parehong miyembro ng isang secret agency ay tumatak sa isip ni Veron Stacey Santibañez ang isang lihim na paghihiganti sa mga taong pumaslang sa mga mahal niya sa buhay. Upang magawa ang nais na paghihiganti ay pumasok rin siya bilang isang secret agent sa organisasyong pinagsisilbihan ng mga magulang noon. Kailangan niya ang organisasyon at ang mga nalalaman nito para maisagawa ang paghihiganti. Sa mga misyong kinakaharap ni Veron ay makikilala niya si Ynzo Abraham Tolledo. Ang makisig, guwapo, ngunit pinakamalaking malas na nakilala niya sa buong buhay niya. Ito ang lalaki na ubod ng yabang at saksakan ng glue na dikit nang dikit sa kaniya sa lahat ng oras. Hindi niya alam kung trip lang ba siya nitong paglaruan o talagang malakas lang ang sapak nito. Isa lang itong lalaking walang ibang kailangan kundi ang makahanap ng babaeng mapapangasawa dahil kung hindi ay wala raw itong mamanahin mula sa mga magulang ‘pag tuntong nito sa edad na tatlumpu. At sa lahat ng babaeng minamalas ay siya pa ang nakita nitong alukin ng kasal-kasalan para lamang makuha ang ninanais nitong mana. Akala ni Veron ay simpleng bagay lang ang inaalok ni Ynzo. Napag-alaman niyang malaki ang maitutulong ng lalaki upang makuha niya ang hustisyang inaasam-asam niya. Kaya kahit may mahal nang iba ay napilitan pa rin siyang kumapit sa patalim. Pareho naman silang makikinabang ni Ynzo sa kasalang iyon. Ngunit may isa sa mga kondisyon na kanilang napagkasunduan. No feelings attached. Ang lahat ng magaganap mula sa araw ng kasal hanggang sa matapos ang misyon ay walang halong damdamin o pag-ibig. Mapanindigan kaya nila ang pinasok na laro? O pareho silang mapapahamak sa mabilis na bala ng pag-ibig na tatama sa kanila?

“They are obviously my children” usal ni Juancho kay Orelia. Natigilin ang babae at naibagsak ang inaayos na mga bulaklak. ”Ano ang ibig mong sabihin?Ni hindi nga kita kilala!” iwas tinging depensa ni Orelia sa lalaki at agad niyang itinago ang dalawang bata sa kanyang likuran. “Hmm, hindi nga ba ikaw yon? But why do these children have my face then?” paninindigan ni Juancho. Pilit na nagpapakita ng matapang na mukha si Orelia, desidido na siyang hindi masangkot sa lalaki matapos ang isang gabi ng pagkakamaling iyon. Mamamatay muna siya bago niya hayaang mapasakamay ng lalaki ang kanyang mga anak. “Or would you rather have me let you remember what transpired that night,” usal ng ni Juancho sabay ng pag haplos sa mga labi ni Orelia gamit ang kanyang daliri. “Don’t touch our mom you bad guy!” biglang pumigitna ang batang babae at pilit na itinulak si Juancho. Nakasunod rito ang takot na batang lalaki. Laking gulat ni Orelia sa biglaang kilos ng mga bata kaya hindi niya napigilan ang agarang paghawak ni Juancho sa mga ito. Handa na siyang itulak ang lalaki at bawiin ang bata nang nakita niya ang mga mata ni Juancho na nakatitig sa kambal, ang malamig at walang emosyon nitong mga mata ay napalitan ng lambot. Ito ay mga matang matagal niya ng hindi nakikita, ang mga matang minsan ng nagpapabilis sa tibok ng kanyang puso. Saksihan ang mainit, matamis at masakit na relasyon ng dalawang mag kaibang indibidwal mula sa magkasalungat na estado ng buhay. Ang kanilang katapusan ba ay magsisimula sa ligaya o patuloy na magbabadya ang paghihirap sa kanilang mga buhay?
