I took a deep breath before slowly opening my eyes. I was wearing a white gown that hugged my body, making me look even more beautiful. I glanced at the bouquet of white flowers in my hand and smiled before walking into the garden. I was amazed because the theme of our wedding was in my favorite color, and there were butterflies happily flying around. I was happy because the family of the man I had dreamed of accepted me. They wanted our wedding, even though it was sudden, and I was happy despite it being an arranged marriage in an unexpected situation. I thought this only happened to rich people, but I was wrong because it happened to me too. If only I could scream and shout that I am the luckiest woman in the world because the man I once dreamed of is now mine. "Love is a choice," he said, so I trusted him a lot, but he had one request for the right time. There was no problem because he was mature enough when it came to relationships, and we loved each other. But fate is truly deceptive because a time came when many "what if" questions flooded my mind. What if I couldn't fulfill his one request and dream? What if his former lover could give it to him instead? What if I saw him happy with her because of that dream? Can I stay with him even if he says he loves me but prioritizes her? What if fate tests us, and even though we love each other, he chooses her because that's what he's making me feel now? "I don't want to hurt you, but they are my family now," he said seriously, and I lowered my head and cried in front of him. I could still hold on, but I could feel that he didn't want to anymore. Should I still fight for him even though it hurts so much? I wondered. "Do you want me to leave?" I asked bravely, hoping he would say no, but I was wrong. "If that's what's best. Leave," he said for the last time and hurriedly turned his back on me. I couldn't do anything but cry and cry, so I made a decision. "For the sake of your dream, I'll do it," I said softly and started packing my things. I hope you'll be happy when the time comes that fate brings us together again. I'm Christian Rana Reyes. And he is Frank Lin Mondragon.

Chapter 1 A maid

Chapter 1

I come from a poor family. My mother works as a maid in the Mondragon mansion, and my father is no longer around, having passed away early in my life. It's only my mother who supports me, and fortunately, the Mondragon family is kind. They've provided me with a scholarship, allowing me to study despite our difficult circumstances.

One day, I visited the mansion because they needed extra help. Don Simon and Doña Margaret were preparing for a grand feast as the twins were coming home.

Just hearing their names sounded intimidating, but my mother had already advised me on what to do and what not to do, so I wasn't scared anymore.

The first twin I met was Lauter. I got to know him as Lauter since he was the first to arrive from Manila. I served him a snack, and I felt comfortable around him. Maybe it's because he's friendly and approachable, not arrogant like others. I wished he could be my older brother.

While Brother Lauter and I were happily chatting-he's a great storyteller-his older brother, Frank Lin Mondragon, suddenly arrived. To my surprise, he seemed angry for no reason.

"Relax, Brother. You're scaring her," Brother Lauter tried to calm Frank Lin, so I looked at him.

"When did you start talking to the child of a maid, Lauter?" Frank Lin sternly scolded Kuya Lauter, making me automatically lower my head. Frank Lin's attitude was terrible, so unlike Brother Lauter.

"brother" Brother Lauter called him softly, so I raised my head again, but Frank Lin just turned his back on us as if we didn't matter.

"Don't mind him, Rana. My twin must just be stressed," Brother Lauter reassured me, and I simply smiled in response.

Frank Lin was a serious person who rarely smiled, as if the weight of the world was on his shoulders. He was intimidating, like he'd shout at you over the slightest mistake. I placed a hand over my heart because I felt it beating fast. I took a deep breath, unsure if it was anxiety caused by Frank Lin's aura. It was so different from Brother Lauter, who was cheerful, smiling, and had a pleasant demeanor.

"Come here, Rana," brother Lauter said, pulling me outside to the garden. He sat me at a garden table and gave me a thoughtful smile.

"Stay here, Rana. I'll be right back," he said before turning and running back into the house.

"Wait, Brother Lauter!" I called after him, making him stop and come back.

"I still have work to do. Nanay might scold me," I explained as I stood up.

"I'll handle it, Rana," he said with a smile before leaving me. I had no choice but to sit where he told me.

"What's taking so long?" I muttered to myself, looking up at the house when I sensed someone watching me. Our eyes met, and I stood up suddenly. It was Frank Lin again, with his usual serious expression, so I forced myself to smile, but he didn't return it.

"He's so mean," I muttered again.

"Who's mean?" brother Lauter asked, startling me. I hadn't noticed he had come back.

"N-Nothing, Brother," I stammered.

"Alright, Rana, sit down," Brother Lauter instructed.

"Okay, Kuya."

"What are you doing, brother?" I asked out of curiosity, causing him to glance at me.

"I'm drawing you," he said shortly, making me clap my hands in excitement.

"You know how to draw, Kuya?" I asked.

"I'm an architect, you know," he replied.

"Oh, sorry! I didn't know," I said apologetically, since we had only just met.

"Stay still, you're moving too much."

"I want that drawing, Kuya Lauter, so you'll have a gift for me," I said playfully, but he just kept concentrating on his work, so I let him be.

"Is it almost done, Kuya?" I asked after a while, starting to feel stiff.

"Almost, just a little more patience, Rana," he said with a smile.

"Kuya, you're so handsome," I commented, and he simply smiled and nodded. He could be a bit cocky, too.

After another five minutes, he finally handed me the drawing, and I was amazed. He captured me perfectly.

"Wow!" I exclaimed.

"You're so talented, Kuya!" I told him, jumping up and down in front of him.

"That's just basic stuff, Rana," he said modestly, ruffling my hair.

"I'll keep this for now, Rana. Next time, I'll paint you, and that one you can take home," he said, taking the drawing from me.

"Okay, Kuya," I agreed, and he excused himself to head to his room, leaving me alone.

I glanced back up, knowing Frank Lin was still there. I smiled at him, even though he didn't smile back.

"Goodbye!" I called, waving at him before running inside to find my mother.

"Rana?!"

"Hey! Rana?" someone called out to me.

"Chrisian Rana?!" The voice was firm, and I turned to the person next to me.

"I've been talking to you for a while now. You're just staring into space," she said irritably.

"Come again?" I asked my friend, Alexa. She frowned at me and glanced at Jon Peter, another friend of ours.

"What were you saying?" I asked to appease her, sensing she was upset. She sighed and ran her fingers through her long hair.

"Sorry, Alexa, I just remembered something from the past," I apologized.

"They say we have a new professor from Harvard University for a Ph.D. program," she informed me.

"That's all you were trying to say?" I replied, resting my chin on my hand.

"They say he's handsome and young, only around 29 years old."

"Even if that's true, it won't change anything. They'll still bully me," I said, pouting.

"You let them bully you," Jon added.

I took a deep breath, feeling anxious, worried that my clothes might get soaked again from their bullying. I even carried an extra uniform and everything else in my locker because not a day goes by when the wealthy students here don't pick on me.

"Have you seen the new professor?" I overheard Jon asking Alexa.

"Not yet. I think he's starting tomorrow," she replied.

"I hope he's nice."

"I'm sure he is," I added, hoping to end the conversation.

"Let's hope you're right, Rana!" they both said in unison, and we sat up properly as the class was about to begin.

They know I'm a scholar here at the Mondragon school, which is why I get bullied. They say I don't belong here. Ever since I started, my life hasn't been peaceful, but I'm okay with that. That's just how life is. I thought I wouldn't have friends who would accept me because I'm poor, but I realized that even if you come from nothing, people will accept you if you have good intentions in life.

I'm happy and thankful to the heavens because I have friends who are always there to defend me.

"Dismissed!"

Class ended, but nothing stuck in my head because my mind was wandering, and our professor called me out several times for not paying attention.

"Oh, life," I muttered, which made everyone look at me. Yeah, I'm really stressed out right now.

The three of us stayed behind because that's what we usually do, letting the others leave first. I didn't want to be pushed around again since I'm quite clumsy, and I don't like trouble. I just want to study hard.

"Hey!" Jon called out to me.

"What's on your mind, girl?" Alexa asked.

"Nothing."

"Nothing?" Alexa pressed.

"I just don't feel well," I replied.

I was startled when my phone vibrated and a message tone rang. I quickly grabbed it to see who sent the message and stood up in shock.

"What happened?" they asked. My hands shook as I opened the message and read it. He said he'd pick me up from school. What do I do? I scratched my head, feeling nervous.

"What's going on, Chrisian Rana? You've been out of it for a while now!" Jon asked. I took a deep breath, not knowing what to do.

"A-Aren't you going home yet?" I stammered and quickly grabbed my bag.

"We'll go home together," Jon replied, heading out first, so we followed him until we reached the gate.

"You go ahead. I have something to take care of," I said, pretending.

"Weird!" Alexa remarked, nodding.

"Oh, life!" I said, relieved they didn't ask any more questions. They eventually left after their rides arrived, and a few minutes later, Frank's car pulled up in front of me.

My heart started racing in surprise. There were still a lot of students around, so before getting in, I made sure no one was watching. I didn't want this to turn into an issue tomorrow. I kissed him on the lips before settling into my seat.

"How's your studies, baby?" he asked, adjusting my seatbelt.

"Everything's fine, Baba. Just a normal day at school," I replied, kissing him on the cheek and hugging him tightly. I love kissing that part of his face because I know he loves it, too.

"Where do you want to eat?" he asked me. I smiled because I used to only dream about moments like this, and now he's mine.

"Anywhere, as long as I'm with you," I answered, and he playfully messed up my hair before kissing me on the lips.

He had really prepared for this day; today, he would finally confess his love to her. "Sorry, Melvin, I don't want anything from you." I felt as if the ground had fallen away beneath me after he spoke. Immediately, we heard a scream in the distance. And I knew who it was-none other than Augusto Guillermo, the man who captivated all the girls at school. There wasn't a girl who didn't like him, while we boys were constantly overshadowed because of him. "Why is he here again? Isn't he rich? Why choose to study here?" "Tsk! There he goes again, your annoying hero!" said the guy next to me. "Oh, don't expect your Chelsea to respond to you! As long as that man is around, none of the girls here will like us," I muttered, left alone, glaring at Augusto. He should disappear from this school. He gets all the attention; besides being handsome, he's also smart and is likely to be the top student next semester. Suddenly, he had a thought, and from that moment, he knew he would regret it. He discovered that the man was ruthless, as he had seen him tormenting his classmates who had spoken ill of him earlier. What was even worse was catching him in a compromising position with someone, a girl who looked like the school president. That was the result of his surveillance and the trauma it caused him because of the sickening things he saw. He gathered evidence and spread it all over campus, causing a big commotion. What will happen when Augusto finds out that he was the one who spread the rumors? Will his quiet life end, or will everything remain a secret? Stay tuned.

"Ahhh! No! Don't kill me! Don't..." Sweat poured and Shu trembled due to the multitude of imaginations swirling in his mind at that moment. They had just finished the betrothal wedding and were currently gathered for dinner. While eating, he couldn't help but think of various things, especially knowing that he would be joining his husband after they finished eating. "Hays, erase! Erase! What am I thinking! He probably isn't that aggressive. Besides, I'm still a minor and this is just a pre-wedding. He probably won't force me to do anything with him tonight!" With that thought, his hands shook as he clutched his dress under the table, which was noticed by the man beside him who then smirked. He flinched slightly when the man suddenly leaned in to whisper in his ear. "Relax, I'm not your groom, Miss. Your groom couldn't attend today's wedding." Confusion replaced the fear and anxiety that had enveloped her when she heard what the man, who had exchanged rings with her earlier, said. "A-aren't you Mr. Griffin?" "No, Ma'am. I'm Lieutenant Carber, the General's right-hand man. I was instructed to represent him." "W-what?!" "You heard right, Ma'am. He was busy and couldn't attend. However, he did leave instructions regarding what you should do now that the wedding is over." "Huh! I can't believe it, he really might be the demon they say he is! I was wondering why this man seems kind and doesn't look like a demon, turns out he's not really the infamous demon general who will be my husband!" she blurted out in frustration. "Did you say something?" Lieutenant Carber asked as he finished talking to other people at the table. Shu smiled falsely and shook her head at the still serious lieutenant. "Hays, if my twin wasn't sick, I wouldn't have agreed to marry that general! So mysterious, he might be ugly and old like they say, and on top of that, he's supposedly Lucifer's nephew who lost two wives already! Omg wait! What if he's the reason for their deaths like they say? Grr, scary!" She hugged herself and whispered with her eyes closed in fear. "I-if that's the case, when will I ever see and meet him. Hays, that demon General!" Background of the Story Shu had been married for four years to a man she had never seen or heard speak. She wasn't supposed to be the one to marry him, but rather the only daughter of a wealthy family where her mother worked. It's a complicated story; all she knew was that she woke up married to a man she didn't know. All she knew was that he had a high status and was a General, protector of the only child of the country's first family. From what she heard, he was cruel, strict, and had a terrifying aura. Despite the fear she felt, she still awaited the day she would finally see and meet him.

My stepmother sold me like a piece of inventory to a man known for breaking people just to plug the financial crater my father left behind. I was delivered to the Morton estate in the middle of a freezing storm, stripped of my phone, and told that if I didn't make myself useful, my senile grandfather would be evicted from his care facility by noon. The master of the house, Adonis Morton IV, was a monster living in a silent mausoleum, driven to the brink of madness by a sensory condition that turned every sound into a physical assault. When I was forced into his suite to serve him, he didn't see a human being; he saw a source of agony. In a fit of animalistic rage, he pinned me to the wall and nearly strangled me to death just for the sound of a shattering teacup. I only survived by using my grandfather’s secret herbal blends and pressure-point therapy to force his overactive nervous system into a drugged sleep. But saving him was my greatest mistake. Instead of letting me go, Adonis moved me into a guest suite connected to his own bedroom by a hidden door. He didn't just want me as a servant; he needed me as a human white-noise machine to drown out the demons in his head. The nightmare deepened when he took the promissory note that defined my freedom and tore it into confetti. By destroying the debt, he destroyed my exit strategy. He replaced my maid’s uniform with a silver silk dress that clung to my skin but did nothing to hide the dark, ugly bruises his fingers had left on my neck. He branded me as his "primary care associate," a title that was nothing more than a gilded cage. I felt a sickening sense of injustice as he forced me to sign a contract that banned me from contacting other men and required me to sleep wherever he slept. He looked at me with a possessive heat, calling me his "medication" rather than a woman. My family had sold my body, but Adonis Morton was intent on owning my very presence, using my grandfather’s medical bills as a leash to keep me within twenty feet of him at all times. Standing in a neglected greenhouse with mud staining my expensive silk, I realized I was no longer a victim waiting for rescue. If I was going to be his medication, I would learn how to be his cure—or his undoing. I began clearing the weeds with a cold, calculated frenzy, determined to turn this prison into my laboratory. He thinks he has trapped a helpless girl, but I am going to pry open the cracks in his stone walls until his entire world comes crashing down.

I lay paralyzed on stiff white sheets, a prisoner in my own skin, listening to the rain lash against the window like nails on a coffin. My father, Elmore Franco, didn't even look at my face as he checked his clipboard. He just listened to the steady, monotonous beep of the heart monitor-the only thing proving I was still alive. Without a hint of remorse, he pulled a pen from his pocket and signed the Do Not Resuscitate order. My stepmother, Ophelia, stepped out from behind him, wearing my favorite pearl necklace and smelling of cloying perfume. She leaned close to my ear to whisper the truth that turned my blood to ice. "It was the tea, darling. Just like your mother. A slow, tasteless poison." She chuckled as she revealed that my fiancé, Bryce, had a two-year-old son with my sister, Daniela. My inheritance had been funding their secret life for years, and now that the money was secure, I was an inconvenience they were finally scrubbing away. As my father yanked the power cord from the wall, the beeping died, and the darkness swallowed me whole. I was being murdered by my own flesh and blood, used as a bank account until I was no longer needed. I died in that sterile room, drowning in the realization that every person I ever loved was a monster who had been waiting for me to take my last breath. Then, I gasped. I woke up in a luxury hotel suite surrounded by silk sheets, five years in the past-the very morning of my wedding. Next to me lay Basile Delgado, the "Wolf of Wall Street" and my family's most dangerous enemy. In my first life, I ran from this room in a panic and lost everything. This time, I looked at the man who would eventually destroy my father's empire and decided to join him. "I'm not leaving, Basile. Marry me. Right now. Today."

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.
