Black Reign

I fell down on my bed. My body aches from practice. It's only four o'clock in the afternoon, it's shocking. Is this how Mommy suffered at HTS? If I only knew, I wouldn’t have bothered to join yet. I struggled to get up and picked up the phone on top of my side table. "Mother Martha," I began tiredly and she answered me with full concern. "Please. Can you just bring me some food up here. Even if you just order another maid. The pain is over. My body really, I can't really go down. All right, thank you. " I immediately removed my bra and stretched. Even maybe opening a social media account is boring to do. I've only been in training for two weeks but I'm tired, I don't want to. I closed my eyes, waking up, tired and tired. I was startled by a noise coming from a cell phone, as if a gunshot had been fired. I seem to have fallen asleep tired. I turned to the person next to me and focused my eyes on his cellphone. My vision was blurred but it didn’t take long and I saw who was next to me. "Calyx!" I slapped him with a lampshade. "Hey! Don't! ” he blocked her face with his arm and immediately left my bed. "Why are you here? And ... And it's still here in my bed! " "I don't know about you. I just delivered your food and then you took advantage of my weakness," she replied and threw my bra on my bed, apparently hanging from her hair. Immediately warmed my face to what he did. I know there was no malice in what he did but I couldn't help but be ashamed. In the crowd, why Calyx yet? "The thickness of your face! Get out of here!" I repel while averting my eyes. "Why are you the one who delivered?" "I volunteered," he answered simply so I turned to him. “I would like to talk to you. I would have woken you up just because you are sound asleep so I would have planned, just wait for you to wake up. ” "So who gave you the right to sit on my bed?" I raise my eyebrow. ” “I am not comfortable on the floor. ” "The thickness of your face, get out!" I rock him a pillow. He also left my room immediately. I just wiped my face. We are now facing each other in the living room as he rubs the lump on his forehead that was hit by the lampshade I hit. "I didn't invite you," he complained. "Don't play the victim. Anyone who sees our position before will think it's ugly." "Ja, you're the one who hugged the two of us. Why are you still angry? Shouldn't I? I feel like I took the wrong course, I should be a politician so I can pass a law that also aims to protect men from your women . " I was amazed at his reasoning. I don’t know if he has a saltik or what. I closed my eyes tightly and whispered to him. "Hey. Calyx Napoleon Tan De Jesus, let's be clear. If you don't want to marry me, make sure no one knows what happened." "You're beautiful. It's not bad to marry you," he smiled mischievously and raised his eyebrows so I threw the magazine at him. I was even more annoyed when he laughed out loud. "Get out of here!" I hit the magazine. "Ja, let's talk," he laughed at my blows. "Let's talk about the two of us— ouch!" he rubbed his forehead and quickly sat down next to me. "What's ours? There is no U.S!" I stomped on him. I sighed as he pulled my two legs closer to him, causing me to lie down on the sofa. He put one arm around my head and brought his face close to mine. I couldn't breathe or even move when our noses came together. I stared into his eyes moving my eyes and my lips. I sighed again when his finger stuck to my forehead as he parted my hair. I closed my eyes tightly and slapped him so he moved away from me. I immediately stood up and walked away from him. I felt my blood boil when I saw him smiling while holding his blushing cheek. "Strength," he said, shaking his head and smiling at me. “But Ja, didn't you crush me then. I was just wondering, why? "Calyx growled. "Can I have Calyx. It's a memory I want to forget," I replied angrily and he laughed. I was about to stone him with the magazine when I heard the doorbell ring. Our assistant hurried to the gate to open the door for the visitor. I focused my eyes on the door of the house. "Are you expecting someone?" he asked in front and lay down on the couch. "It's none of your business. Can you just leave first because it's embarrassing for the visitor. ” "Wow! Heavy! ” he applauded. I turned angrily to the man who was just staring at me. He immediately ‘kissed me. "Fuckboy," I whispered. “Hey, that hurts. You are a judge. ” "Truth hurts, Calyx," I smiled sarcastically. "Ms. Jayesa," the maid approached me. "She's supposed to be your visitor. Keshaun Medrano. Shall I let her in?" “Keshaun? That’s a boy’s name, and you’re still a guest? Are you misleading? ” Calyx stood up and got serious. “What are you doing? You also said, I'm beautiful, ”I replied. I looked back at the maid and ordered him to let Keshaun in. "Jayesa, I know you're 18 but you're still a baby in our brother's eyes." "Why are you interfering?" "I'm just concerned." "Concern? Stop me," I

"Huh?" I asked confusedly. Mr. doctor's answer? "C-come again? I'm what… now?” "Pregnant Lady Ca-" “Pregnant!?! I!? HOW!?” I shouted at him. He raised an eyebrow at me and stared at me like some sort of a weirdo. "By having an int*rc*urse of course Lady Candace." I looked at him, well, doctor, I'm not in the mood to joke here, what? How am I pregnant!? I'm not even from here! I'm literally not from here, I'm from planet earth! E-A-R-T-H EARTH! From the Philippines, Cebu City! I was drinking with some friends because there was a celebration... But, I got drunk and I don't know what happened. When I opened my eyes, my environment was different. I woke up on some sort of small house and when I came out the people were dressed fancily. Their set-up is ancient but fantasy themed? It's like a peg only in fantasy books. That's it! I really don't know what's going on- maybe I'm just pranking but it's not really. The way they talk is weird, my h-ngh-ng friends don't speak that fluently. So I'm convinced that I'm no longer a prank and I woke up in another world. Maybe that's possible, I'm listening to lessons and watching Isekai anime. (Our character here is quick to believe in magic so he quickly adapts what is happening. Then I also read reincarnation stories, be it manwha or manga. Maybe I was de-ds when I drank too much? I know that's not the only problem I have. My hair color also changed, I still have the same face and all but- I DON'T HAVE A FROST BLUE HAIR! My uncle's life was gone when he saw me coloring. Also what is with my eyes!? I don't wear contact lenses either!? I didn't even know what was happening and then I just found out that I'm pregnant?! I know the kid is from j-gj-gan but duh!? I'm a virgin! One hundred percent! Not a single man moved my flower! My beautiful flower is well protected by me! But new?! I suddenly found out that I'm pregnant!? Then I still don't know the child's father juskooo- forgive me father for I have really s-nned. Mamang will slap me left and right when he hears this! I haven't even graduated from college yet and I'm already doing kerengkeng. Huh. What if I suddenly got pregnant? What is magic? But magic exists here- because eehh! I really can't process what's happening to me. I'm still adjusting to this because I just reincarnated and then I found out that I'm pregnant without knowing who the father is. I mean- I don't have memories whatever. Not really! as in none! Nothing! Is this how you wake up in another world? I have read fantasy books, why aren't my scenes the same as theirs? They woke up because they remembered something from their past self chuchu. Why am I not there? Does this body have amnesia? This may not be my body even though we have the same face. What the h-ck is happening? Not only do I have no memories, I suddenly got pregnant. I bit my lip, seriously, if I am reincarnated in another world, I must also have memories so that I can catch up on events. But nothing really, I was not blessed. I scratched my head while looking at my stomach, whatever. I'm gonna take care of this child. I, Candace Dulce will be raising this baby! With or without someone! Well, I'm such a strong independent woman!

She died due to overworking as a popular web writer, she never thought she could die like that in an appropriate state. But they did say, if only you could be given another chance to live again and alas, she was reicarnated as a child! She is not just merely a baby, but the youngest and only princess of an Eryndor Empire! How a 30-year-old unmarried and virgin woman could survive this? Especially her family where she belongs are famous as a heartless and tyrant royal family?

"Kuya where's mom and dad?" The girl asked her older brother as she walked down from her room. "They go to the company." Was the short reply of his older brother who was busy playing on his cell phone. "Ah owwkayyy" The girl said and went straight to the kitchen to eat It's only 6:30 in the morning so he still has time to eat before going to school While eating it his older brother came And sat down in front of him to eat as well. "Hurry up baby, come with me in" the young man cracked in silence "All right" the girl replied After they ate, his older brother went home "Let's go?" The young man asked his younger brother. "okay" the smiling maiden replied They have arrived at school Before they could enter the gate there were many whispering students But they didn't pay attention to that because they were used to it They are known throughout the school because of their beauty and grace, including the fact that they are the children of rich people. Let me introduce you to the protagonist in my story ELYSE NICOLE ANDERSON and her older brother CLYDE ANDERSON. They are known because they are the children of a couple among the richest in the Philippines.

Her POV I looked up at the high gate of the university and quietly read the engraved letters there. 'R University ..' I sighed and smiled before I entered. No human being maybe in their respective rooms. I went to the Dean’s Office to ask where the building of the section I belonged to was. I halted in front of a door painted with a gold color and knocked twice. A woman with a round eyeglass and hair tied in a pony tail welcomed my sight. "Oh ... it's you.Please come in." She uttered I smiled and stepped in. "Dean ... the beautiful lady is here." She informed the Dean who's busy with the papers I scratched my head because of the word 'beautiful'. I still feel lonely when I am praised. Slowly, she held her head up and flashed a big smile. I stared at her for a moment. Even with age, there is still a trace of beauty in it. "Miss Quiza.How may I help you?" She asked while staring at me intently I shyly smiled. "Ahh ... I just wanted to ask where the building of the section I belong to is." She chuckled. "Oh ..." He turned to Miss Jie, his secretary. "Miss Jie, please lead the way to her building." "Yes, Dean." Was its polite reply Dean looked at me. "Miss Jie will bring you there.Sorry for not giving you a tour yesterday." I shook. "Naku po. Ayos lang po yun. I was busy yesterday too and as much as I want to tour myself, I don't have much time." Sinsero kong sabi It smiled. "Then ... enjoy.Enjoy your first day here, Miss Quiza." I bowed and smiled. "Thank you, Dean." Miss Jie guided me out. I just kept quiet as I walked and he in turn explained every place and building we passed. I only answered with a nod and a smile. I was too mesmerized by the pine trees that are perfectly standing at every side of the hallway. Flowers that are properly arranged at the side. I was too drown that I didn't even notice that we're already in front of my room's door. "Oh siya.Dito ka na.Don't worry.They already knew that there's a transferee but didn't know who.I'm sure they'll be stunned on seeing a beauty like you.Enjoy, Miss Quiza.Have a great day. " Before I can respond, she walked away. I sighed before knocking the door twice. "Yes? Who ---" It stopped when it saw me and like everyone else when it saw me it hit it. I smiled at him. It's so shimmering. "P-Please come in." It eased the door open and all my classmates looked and stared at me as I entered. I tried to chase away the consciousness and look at each of them. No words came out of their mouths. They just stared at me with adoration. "Please introduce yourself, Miss." I nodded and smiled at everyone. "Hi.I'm Nhiana Quiza.I'm new here.I hope we'll get along." "Find your seat, Miss Quiza." Smiling I headed to the back. There are two vacant seats and I choose the one which is near at the window. "Professor, what is your name, anyway?" He forgot to tell me. "Ahhh ... sorry.I'm Gus Salazar.Your Biology Teacher.Call me Sir not Professor.Yan kasi ang nakasanayan dito.Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself as well." Parang nahihiyang sabi pa nito "You Sir ha. Just saw the beautiful forgot to introduce yourself." Hirit one of my classmates "I'll report you to your wifey, Sir. You've been hit by someone else." "Quiet, class." Sir said shyly I'm not a fool not to know what's going on. "Class dismissed!" Sir said stunned and quickly left "Yessss !!!" Everyone shouted in joy and I unbelievably shook my head. I guess that was their way to get dismissed early. "Shoot! That's really nice!" I was surprised when I looked up they were all around me. They just stared at my face as if criticizing. "Hi. I'm Hero. The hero of your life, Miss Ganda." Introduced the man with blonde hair The woman next to him pushed it with maltreatment the former. "Your line, Hero. It's rotten!" He shouted and turned to me "You're so freaking gorgeous. May I know where you bought your skin care products?" I laughed at the question. "I don't do skin care." "What ?! For real ?!" suddenly shouted the man with a shrill voice 'Is gay.' "Yes." I replied "Woahh .." they whispered in amazement They introduced themselves one by one and they took me to the cafe afterwards. When we entered the cafeteria, the people here immediately turned around. The strength of the voices of those with me. We turned to the counter. "I'll order for you, Nhiana Ganda." Kiel said smiling I shook. "I'm fine, Kiel. Don't worry." It no longer roared and was already at the table where the others were already. "Oh my ... Is she even real?" "Plastic surgery." "She's freaking beautiful!" "Nice tol! Strategic later." "She's real! Shoot! She's too beautiful." Those are just a few of the whispers I hear. I simply looked around and they were all looking at me. Geez ... "Nhiana!" Shaine and Shane and the rest of us waved at me. Smiling I headed to where they were. "How can she walk so gracefully?" "Woahh ..." I just ignored them and sat between Shane and Shaine.

It's late and it's getting dark outside and I'm still here at the school office, while finishing my lessons for tomorrow. I leaned back in the chair and looked around the office. I was the only one left here, all my co-teachers went home. I heaved a deep sigh and closed my laptop. I arranged my things on the table and put the laptop inside the bag. I stood up from my seat and walked towards the door. Before leaving the office, I turned off all the lights. While walking in the hallway, I felt a cold wind touch my skin. I just ignored it and continued walking. I stop walking and look back when I feel something... someone's following me. But when I turned around, I didn't see anyone else here except me. It's late so almost all the students have already gone home to their houses. Maybe it was just my hallucination. I continued walking again when suddenly someone grabbed my hand causing me to let go of the bag I was carrying. In the extreme speed of the event, I found myself stuck and facing the wall. While someone I don't know is holding my hand. I started to get nervous because I didn't know who the person behind me was now. "Who are you?" I managed to ask. Tried to squirm and get out of his grip but he was too strong. I can't even leave my seat now. I felt his body touching me from behind and him sniffing my head. "Who are you?" Suddenly the whole body trembled because of the coldness of his voice. And based on the sound of it he's a boy. I'm even more nervous about my situation now. Trying not to think bad things, but my brain doesn't cooperate. I tried to push him hard, but it's no use. He is too strong. "A---- What do you need?" I asked stuttering and scared. "You... I want you." He said with his deep and cold voice. He let go of one of his hands but he was still attached to my back. I flinched when he grabbed me by both shoulders while caressing down my arm. I also felt his head drop from the side of my face. I closed my eyes when I felt his hot breath touching the tip of my ear. "Mhmm.. you smell so divine and sweet." I put one hand on the wall when I felt his lips on my neck. The long hair was tied so my neck was exposed to him freely. I let out breaths almost one after the other when he started kissing my neck with bites. While his lips were busy on my neck, his hand moved down from my arm to my waist. "Mmm" I let out a small m*an when he bit the top of my ear. From my ear again his lips went back to my neck. He kissed and bit it. While his hand was still busy caressing from my waist down to my hip, going to my thigh and slightly squeezing it. I don't know how or what to react!? My mind says to stop him from what he is doing, but my body says and acts differently. My body does not want to be with my brain. My knees are almost shaking because of what he is doing. "Taking you here is inappropriate, despite the urge of wanting you." He stopped and whispered into my ear. A deep breath followed by a release. I felt like I ran out of breath and strength because of what he did. I opened my eyes as he slowly brought me to him. My eyes widened and I looked at him in surprise to see his face and recognize it. It was... "C--- Ciane??" I stammered. It was Ciane Salvatore, one of my students. He rested one hand on the wall, on my side while looking at me. "I can't get you out of my mind. Everyday when I see you, the desire that I feel towards you is getting stronger, that I couldn't control myself, anymore." he said in a cold voice. He grabbed my face and ran his fingers, from my cheek down to my lips. "I've been waiting for so long..." I was suddenly surprised and scared when the color of his eyes suddenly changed. It turned blue as if it was shining in the darkness. "Your heartbeat is like music to my ears, and the smell of your bl**d is my addiction." After he said those words he claimed my lips and kissed me.

"Are you not wondering why there are no taxis stopping here? That they are just passing by?" the young man asked, surprising Trixie with his sudden remark. His voice is deep and sexy, and turns out he's an English speaker. Impressive. "Because we are already wet from the rain, and they don't want their taxi seats to get dirty?!" she exclaimed hysterically. "No. Do you think they will reject you? In this case, they need more passengers because if they don't drive, they won't have anything to eat," he replied seriously. "Ah, but there are a lot of taxis passing by, but no one really stops!" she retorted, frustrated with the taxi drivers for not stopping. The night is cold, coupled with heavy rain and thunder. Who wouldn't be irritated in such a situation? "Because they do have passengers," Trixie said, biting her lip in response. After a while, she burst out laughing, realizing that her constant complaint about not getting a taxi was because she thought the drivers were avoiding her, not realizing they had passengers. "You're right. I didn't think of that," she admitted, holding her stomach from laughter. "There is also a saying that if you have the patience to wait, you will not be disappointed. Because your waiting is worth it since what you want will still come true," the young man said. Trixie nodded in agreement. "Can I ask you something?" she inquired after a few seconds of silence. She thought he might not answer, but he turned to her. "Miss, you're already asking," he philosophically replied, biting his lower lip. "Are you leaving your home? Why do you have a suitcase in the middle of the night and in the rain?" she asked rapidly. "I just want to go to a place where I'll be comfortable," he answered. The young man is easy to talk to, and there's no sense of danger. If she were another woman, she might be scared, considering he has a suitcase and they are the only two in the waiting area trying to hail a taxi. "Why now, in the rain?" she asked, puzzled. "Because I didn't know it was going to rain. Miss?" "What?" she asked, still a bit grumpy. "I'm Wade Hansley Esquivias, 30 years old." Trixie's heart quickened as he introduced himself with his full name and age. 30 years old? Not bad for her 27 years of existence. She sighed at the end, thinking about the age gap. 'Wade Hansley Esquivias, handsome owner with a handsome name. What more could you ask for?' "I'm Trixie Vargas Garcia, 27 years old," she replied with her name. "Sorry if we met in this situation. I just found your gesture earlier amusing. You were really angry." "I just want to go home," she said. "I see, aren't you afraid of me? Because you're talking to a stranger like me? Is the line 'I don't talk to strangers' not in your vocabulary?" he asked. "Because that depends on how I feel the presence of a person. From what I see of you, you seem heartbroken. Your eyes are sad," she commented. "You're observant then," he said, and a taxi pulled up in front of them. It opened, and she thought she would be left there as he had found a ride. "Get in," he said in a gentle voice. Her heartbeat raced, and butterflies fluttered in her stomach. Is she feeling giddy because she met the gentleman Wade Hansley Esquivias?

I was sitting QUIETLY on the carpeted floor of my room, at the foot of my bed when I heard a soft knock on the sliding door of my balcony. At first I ignored it because it might be windy outside but it repeated itself until the knocking became one after another. I stood up to approach it and when I opened it I greatly surprised the man outside. I quickly went to the door to lock it and turned back to him as well. "What are you doing here, Miko? D-It's dangerous here. How did you know this place?” I asked nervously and pulled his arm so he could go inside. Maybe someone will see him from outside. He didn't let me go and hugged me tightly. He buried his face on my neck and I could feel his body trembling. My lips parted at his reaction when he saw me here. "I'm sorry..." he apologized to me and his voice broke immediately. "Miko..." "I'm sorry, Donna..." "Please...h-don't come here, Miko." "How can I not come here if you are here?" he asked and pulled away from his hug from me. He cupped my face and stared at me intently. Since he found out that I'm alive and that I'm Donna Jean—his ex-fiancé has been making a way to see me even though he knows that he will be destroyed if he approaches me again. He knows what my...husband can do to him if he doesn't avoid me yet. "Miko... Please, don't be stubborn. Don't come any closer to me... Avoid me... You'll just perish," I said in fear. "How many times have I let you go, Donna... I don't care if I risk seeing you and being close to you. I've fought with death once and I'll do it again for you, baby...” The corner of my eyes warmed because of what he said and my heart beat even faster. “M-Miko...” “I'm the reason... I'm the reason why you ended up in this situation, Donna... I'm to blame. Because my brain was narrow then. My ears were closed to listen to your explanations to me before... So I must find a way to get you out of this household. Donna...we need you... We and our children need you...” "But Miko... The four of you are safer without me... You will be given a peaceful life if I am not with you. Let me go..." I said but she shook her head several times and her tears started to fall. "How can you say that? How can you say that to me when I know you are having a hard time living with that man?” he asked, his jaw still agape. "Miko, your safety is more important than my own life," I promised firmly. "I don't want to, Donna," he said and shook his head. "I can't allow him to lock you here," he said coldly and his facial expression darkened. "Miko." "I went to several hospitals that day to look for you. But what did that man do, Donna? He ran away from you and forced you to marry him!” I quickly covered his mouth. He closed his eyes tightly and his chest heaved violently. "I still owe him a lot, Miko. Because I had surgery and was able to...see again.” "I can do that too... I can do that too if I'm not...blinded by anger and jealousy... I can treat you too, baby..." When I heard footsteps from a distance, my body stiffened I. It was like cold water had been poured on me. "Baby, what's wrong?" I quickly pushed Miko outside and she looked at me in surprise. "Go away, Miko. Please...he's coming. He's already in the corridor of our mansion—” “This is not your fvcking house, Donna Jean. We have a house...” "Alright, please. Go away, Miko...” I knew the sound of those footsteps was far away. During my time in the dark world, my hearing is strong and I have memorized the way it walks. "Donna..." He grabbed me by the waist and pressed me to his body. The nervousness in my chest just doubled. "Miko, please..." He sighed before he kissed me firmly on my lips. It was only a few seconds but it already gave me a strong impact. His eyes are bright and also have a sparkle. I only really saw it now because I was deprived of seeing the beautiful sight in the world for several years—the eyes of the man I love are now one. "I'll be back. I'll get you back and get him back, Donna. I cannot allow him to have the mother of my children. You're all mine, Miss. You're only mine," he threatened and I swallowed because of the coldness of his voice. "I love you. I will do anything and just go home to my house—to our house with the triplets.” I just bowed down because of the growing sadness in my chest. I miss them so much. "Answer me, Miss. Or else I won't leave here." "I-I love you too. Go ahead, do—” he pressed me even harder with a kiss. I also responded quickly to his kisses until he also loosened himself. I still closed my eyes when he kissed my forehead sweetly. He took my hand and gave me something small. Cell phone? "Take that and keep it, Miss. He's a keypad and that won't get much attention. That battery is strong. You will open it just in case something happens that won't make him bad for you again. Miss...” I nodded and accepted that. "Duly noted." He hugged me tightly then he jumped from the balcony. I didn't look at him anymore because I closed th

I'M AT my new friend Jaelly's house today and I'm sitting on the couch. She left me for a while to get a snack. But there's someone who pulled my skirt. I didn't notice it at first but it kept dragging so I've got it upside down. My eyes widened when I saw her. A little girl who is so pretty, curly hair and greasy eyelashes. Then her eyes were gray, innocent and pure. Her nose is pointed, her cheeks and lips are all red. “Oh, hello. You're such a beautiful kid!” I said astonishingly and out of excitement I picked her up to sit her on my lap. I kissed her on the cheek and hugged her tightly. I felt his head leaning against my chest. She smells so good. I untied to see her reaction and what a cutie! His eyes are closed and it seems he is immediately comfortable with me. “Oh, Dad!” he shouted suddenly and pulled my sleeves again. Her lips, she pointed somewhere. "Dada... Hmm, up Dada," she said. "Are you looking for your Dada? Let's go then," I said and picked him up. I saw the sparkle in his eyes and he smiled sweetly at me. “Mommy?” “Oh, little cutie. I'm not your Mom," I said and she snorted. "Okay..." So obedient. He was not a demanding child and did not even cry. "Are you Jaelly's younger brother? What's your name, sweetie?” I asked her but she didn't reply. When we finally got to the stairs, he let me down so that's what I did. He grabbed my two fingers and pulled me again. I chuckled softly and just let him go. He pointed to the door. "Open," he said. Her voice is naturally soft and gentle. I opened it because he wanted me to do it and I just laughed softly because he pulled me in too. His small hands were pointing at something again, accompanied by his snoring, so I followed that with my eyes. My heart beat even faster when I saw a man lying on a big bed. It doesn't have a top, it's like it's shivering in the cold? The girl got on the bed, I was supporting her so she wouldn't fall and enter the man's blanket. I was worried about what it would do. "Dada... Dada..." the girl called softly. "H-Hon... G-Get out, please... M-My fever is Dada... C-Call your Tita Ly," he said softly, his voice also hoarse but still snuggled up to her side the child. He hugged her left arm and leg. He even kissed her cheek. "Hon..." "Dada, wake up... Mommy is here..." she whispered and glanced at me. Eh? I'm not his Mommy. He just brought me here. Wait... Dada? Is this man her father? Aunt Ly? So, are they father and son? But who is this man then? Jaelly's older brother? “Hon... Go... C-Call your Aunt Ly...” "Mommy is here, Dada... She's here!" he insisted and beckoned to me as if he wanted me to come to him. A-I don't want to! He's just a kid! Even though he's cute, I don't want to follow him because his daddy is the one in bed. Maybe his Mommy will catch me here and wonder why I'm here. "Uhm..." I walked towards the door hoping to leave but he suddenly shouted. "Mommy!" "I'm not your Mom!" I also shouted back at him so the man woke up completely. My eyes widened when I saw his stony body. Because he did get up. He looked at me without emotion. My heartbeat suddenly accelerated when our eyes met. "Who are you?" he asked, his voice cold as ice. "It's my Mommy, Dada... Mommy, come here..." I shook my head. "I-I'm not your Mom..." I said but before I could turn the doorknob, my hair stood on end when someone hugged me from behind. My eyes widened when he suddenly picked me up. I was so shocked that I couldn't even protest. I only realized one thing. I was lying on the bed and he hugged me tightly and the child was still very happy. God! What the hell?! Why is he acting so fast?! Is he a vampire?!

The sky blends with ash, orange, and red, indicating the approaching sunset. The wind intensifies, a sign that the day is drawing to a close. I smile at the beautiful scene, tears streaming down my face. My chest tightens, realizing this might be the last time I witness the sunset. Tomorrow... tomorrow, I won't be able to see it anymore. I release a sigh and gently wipe away my tears. I'm content, knowing I'll have more moments with my loved ones, even if not in this world. I turn as I hear approaching footsteps, and my heart flutters seeing the man who holds my heart. "Don Brill," I say, using the name I fondly call him. Denbrill Arkun Brilliantes is his full name, but I've always called him Don Brill, a playful nickname from our early days when love hadn't blossomed yet. It stuck, and he seemed to like it. He smiles as he comes closer. Decades have passed, but his masculine charm endures. Over the years, my love for him has only deepened, a love I never thought I'd experience. His hand hides behind his back. He kneels before me, and I, seated on a sofa near our room's window, watch him. "My Don Brill," I playfully say, caressing his jaw. He quickly catches my hand, kissing the back of it. "I'm not really a don, my love. Engineer suits me better. But since you gave me that name, I told people to call me that. Because I want to remember you always, even if... even if you leave me," he says, his voice breaking in the end. His grip on my hand tightens. "Love, I won't leave you," I assure him, but I notice the reddening of his eyes. "A-Are you sure? It seems like you're preparing," he says, revealing a hand holding a red rose. I look at it with a genuine smile, accepting it wholeheartedly, just as I accepted his love. "This is beautiful, Don Brill. Did you pick my flowers from the garden again?" I ask. "You're more beautiful than these roses, and yes, I did pick them," he replies, making me laugh softly. "Don Brill, remember that nothing lasts forever, and we all have our destinies. Love, don't think I'll leave you. Even if I'm not physically with you, I'll always be in your heart and mind. I'll remain by your side," I say, gently touching his face. "Love..." "I should be the one to go first, Lorainne... I should be the one before you," he interrupts, tears streaming down his face. I pull his arm to make him sit beside me, feeling his weakness. As he sits, he immediately envelops me in his arms. I smile as I hear the rapid beating of his heart, a beautiful sound that matches mine. "I love you so much, Don Brill. Not everyone leaves at the same time, and you... you have many things to do. Our children and grandchildren need you. Don't leave them so soon. I won't be gone completely," I assure him. "What... what do you mean, my love?" he asks, gazing into my eyes. "I won't be gone completely because soon, we'll have a granddaughter. But... there will be more if you choose to stay with them," I look at the darkening sky. My husband stands and closes the window. "It's time for you to rest, my love," he says, lifting me effortlessly and placing me back on our bed. "Yes, it's time to leave," I reply, and his lips part in surprise. He nods, tears falling rapidly. "Lorainne..." I take his hand and softly kiss his lips. He cradles my neck, deepening the kiss—our last kiss. "Remember, I regret nothing. I'm happy to leave this world, Don Brill. I'm happy that you're the man I loved throughout my life. The first and only man I'll love forever. We'll meet again... in the right time. There, I promise never to make you feel abandoned. Because there, our time is limitless. Free..." His embrace tightens, and he kisses my forehead. "If I could stop every ticking of time I would. It hurts to let you go suddenly. But promise I’ll live as long as you said. I’m coming after you. Your love for me is priceless so take my heart too, my love... You’re the only woman I’ll love, even in the afterlife or our next life. I love you so much, Lorainne Angeles-Brilliantes, the mother and granddaughter of my children. You are free not because I set you free, you are free because your heart wants. We'll meet again, my love..." he says, closing his eyes. I take a deep breath, and before the darkness consumes me, our memories flood back. Tears flow, and his embrace tightens. "I love you so, Don Brill," I say with a smile, my cheeks wet. I feel my heartbeat slowing. Before I depart, I still hear his sobbing. "I love you, Denbrill Arkun Brilliantes..." are the last words that escape my lips.

"Whooo! Let's drink! Ali shouted. Yes, we're in the bar, been here with friends since earlier. Ali's broken; her boyfriend cheated on her. Thought he was handsome, but well, 'Whoo, let's drink!' she exclaimed, taking a swig of her beer. "Listen, Cally, never fall for handsome guys; they're all cheaters," a friend advised, and I just chuckled. "Okay, enough of that," I said. "No! Let's drink more! It hurts so much!" Ali insisted, drawing attention from others in the bar. "Stop them," I instructed Sam. "Hey, easy! I told you, I'm here for you," Tom chimed in. "Eww, Tom, we're just friends," I retorted. "Shut up," he replied. "You're just drunk, gaining confidence," Tom teased. "Well, we graduated; maybe I have a chance now, right, Ali?" Ali scoffed, ignoring him. "Handle them; I need the restroom," I said, feeling a bit dizzy. Hi, I'm Cally, short for Cllane Avarri Joy. Apologies for the length – blame my mom's preference for sophistication. We all graduated with a Business Administration degree; I didn't like the courses for the "smart" ones. I'll just find my engineer, right? We're a group of not-so-responsible friends, as you can see. We enjoy each other's company before facing life individually. My parents scold me due to my friends, fearing they might influence me. They don't know I'm the leader. Annoyingly, I'm constantly compared to my cousin Amanda, the golden child. I washed my face; alcohol works fast. Exiting the bathroom, I couldn't stand seeing couples kissing. "Why can't I find someone good-looking?" I complained. "Hey, Cally!" my friends called. "Later!" I replied, feeling a bit woozy. "Focus, Cally, I need to find someone tonight," Tim said. "Looking for someone?" I asked. "Yeah, and I was hoping to see you," he replied. "So, what do you want?" I quickly retorted. He grinned. "I'll give you the room number; follow me later." "Here we go again. Where's the number?" He handed me 143. "Okay," I said, taking a sip of his beer. "It feels like you're in the mood, huh?" he teased. "You wish," I playfully responded. He left, and I continued drinking. A few hours passed; I was a bit drunk. "Nice!" I muttered, heading towards the rooms. I found the door with the number 143, knocked, and waited. It took a while to open; I was getting sleepy. "Oh, still drinking, Cally?" I muttered to myself, entering the room. "What are you doing!?" someone exclaimed. "Let's sleep," I said, placing my hand on their shoulder. They looked at me, and my vision blurred. I burst into laughter for no apparent reason. "You're really drunk, Cally! Seeing all kinds of handsome people," they remarked.

Like almost every dramatic romance novel, Bella’s story begins with a bad grandfather, a treacherous sister, and a stupid boyfriend. At the age of twenty, he fell victim to their grand scheme and became the laughing stock of the country. A piece of news about her boyfriend’s reunion has brought Bella hard into a state of poverty. However, an accident happened ... Bella rose from the ashes. In the blink of an eye, Bella has become the Ladyboss of the strongest and most powerful in the underworld.

"Breaking news: a man's head was spotted again near the head quarters of the police, they suspect that the number 1 serial killer Exodus is the perpetrator of the crime again" I didn't pay attention to what was being said in the news because I was busy working Food here in the kitchen. "It's really scary to come out now, why hasn't that Exodus been caught yet, he's already killed so many innocent people." "Yes, of course it's still alive, but its soul is being burned in hell." whispered our housemates at home. I can't blame them why they talk like that to that Criminal because it is true that he has killed so many people. I don't know why there are people who can kill their fellow human beings. They will not be blessed if they do that and they have no right to take the lives of others because they are not God.

I am thankful that there is such a tradition in our family, because that's why I recovered my wealth. The attorney also knows this very well because all of his ancestors have served us up to them and her next son. Because Mrs. Diaz's ancestor swore to serve the Chuas for the next generation until their race was exhausted. That's all Papa told me then, and he didn't tell me what happened or why Mrs. Diaz's ancestor made that promise. What did my ancestor do to make all of Mrs. Diaz's clan serve us?

"Huh?" I asked confusedly. Mr. doctor's answer? "C-come again? I'm what… now?” "Pregnant Lady Ca-" “Pregnant!?! I!? HOW!?” I shouted at him. He raised an eyebrow at me and stared at me like some sort of a weirdo. "By having an int*rc*urse of course Lady Candace." I looked at him, well, doctor, I'm not in the mood to joke here, what? How am I pregnant!? I'm not even from here! I'm literally not from here, I'm from planet earth! E-A-R-T-H EARTH! From the Philippines, Cebu City! I was drinking with some friends because there was a celebration... But, I got drunk and I don't know what happened. When I opened my eyes, my environment was different. I woke up on some sort of small house and when I came out the people were dressed fancily. Their set-up is ancient but fantasy themed? It's like a peg only in fantasy books. That's it! I really don't know what's going on- maybe I'm just pranking but it's not really. The way they talk is weird, my h-ngh-ng friends don't speak that fluently. So I'm convinced that I'm no longer a prank and I woke up in another world. Maybe that's possible, I'm listening to lessons and watching Isekai anime. (Our character here is quick to believe in magic so he quickly adapts what is happening. Then I also read reincarnation stories, be it manwha or manga. Maybe I was de-ds when I drank too much? I know that's not the only problem I have. My hair color also changed, I still have the same face and all but- I DON'T HAVE A FROST BLUE HAIR! My uncle's life was gone when he saw me coloring. Also what is with my eyes!? I don't wear contact lenses either!? I didn't even know what was happening and then I just found out that I'm pregnant?! I know the kid is from j-gj-gan but duh!? I'm a virgin! One hundred percent! Not a single man moved my flower! My beautiful flower is well protected by me! But new?! I suddenly found out that I'm pregnant!? Then I still don't know the child's father juskooo- forgive me father for I have really s-nned. Mamang will slap me left and right when he hears this! I haven't even graduated from college yet and I'm already doing kerengkeng. Huh. What if I suddenly got pregnant? What is magic? But magic exists here- because eehh! I really can't process what's happening to me. I'm still adjusting to this because I just reincarnated and then I found out that I'm pregnant without knowing who the father is. I mean- I don't have memories whatever. Not really! as in none! Nothing! Is this how you wake up in another world? I have read fantasy books, why aren't my scenes the same as theirs? They woke up because they remembered something from their past self chuchu. Why am I not there? Does this body have amnesia? This may not be my body even though we have the same face. What the h-ck is happening? Not only do I have no memories, I suddenly got pregnant. I bit my lip, seriously, if I am reincarnated in another world, I must also have memories so that I can catch up on events. But nothing really, I was not blessed. I scratched my head while looking at my stomach, whatever. I'm gonna take care of this child. I, Candace Dulce will be raising this baby! With or without someone! Well, I'm such a strong independent woman!

She died due to overworking as a popular web writer, she never thought she could die like that in an appropriate state. But they did say, if only you could be given another chance to live again and alas, she was reicarnated as a child! She is not just merely a baby, but the youngest and only princess of an Eryndor Empire! How a 30-year-old unmarried and virgin woman could survive this? Especially her family where she belongs are famous as a heartless and tyrant royal family?

" where's mom and dad?" The girl asked her older brother as she walked down from her room. "They go to the company." Was the short reply of his older brother who was busy playing on his cell phone. "Ah owwkayyy" The girl said and went straight to the kitchen to eat It's only 6:30 in the morning so he still has time to eat before going to school While eating it his older brother came And sat down in front of him to eat as well. "Hurry up baby, come with me in" the young man cracked in silence "All right" the girl replied After they ate, his older brother went home "Let's go?" The young man asked his younger brother. "okay" the smiling maiden replied They have arrived at school Before they could enter the gate there were many whispering students But they didn't pay attention to that because they were used to it They are known throughout the school because of their beauty and grace, including the fact that they are the children of rich people. Let me introduce you to the protagonist in my story ELYSE NICOLE ANDERSON and her older brother CLYDE ANDERSON. They are known because they are the children of a couple among the richest in the Philippines.

Her POV I looked up at the high gate of the university and quietly read the engraved letters there. 'R University ..' I sighed and smiled before I entered. No human being maybe in their respective rooms. I went to the Dean’s Office to ask where the building of the section I belonged to was. I halted in front of a door painted with a gold color and knocked twice. A woman with a round eyeglass and hair tied in a pony tail welcomed my sight. "Oh ... it's you.Please come in." She uttered I smiled and stepped in. "Dean ... the beautiful lady is here." She informed the Dean who's busy with the papers I scratched my head because of the word 'beautiful'. I still feel lonely when I am praised. Slowly, she held her head up and flashed a big smile. I stared at her for a moment. Even with age, there is still a trace of beauty in it. "Miss Quiza.How may I help you?" She asked while staring at me intently I shyly smiled. "Ahh ... I just wanted to ask where the building of the section I belong to is." She chuckled. "Oh ..." He turned to Miss Jie, his secretary. "Miss Jie, please lead the way to her building." "Yes, Dean." Was its polite reply Dean looked at me. "Miss Jie will bring you there.Sorry for not giving you a tour yesterday." I shook. "Naku po. Ayos lang po yun. I was busy yesterday too and as much as I want to tour myself, I don't have much time." Sinsero kong sabi It smiled. "Then ... enjoy.Enjoy your first day here, Miss Quiza." I bowed and smiled. "Thank you, Dean." Miss Jie guided me out. I just kept quiet as I walked and he in turn explained every place and building we passed. I only answered with a nod and a smile. I was too mesmerized by the pine trees that are perfectly standing at every side of the hallway. Flowers that are properly arranged at the side. I was too drown that I didn't even notice that we're already in front of my room's door. "Oh siya.Dito ka na.Don't worry.They already knew that there's a transferee but didn't know who.I'm sure they'll be stunned on seeing a beauty like you.Enjoy, Miss Quiza.Have a great day. " Before I can respond, she walked away. I sighed before knocking the door twice. "Yes? Who ---" It stopped when it saw me and like everyone else when it saw me it hit it. I smiled at him. It's so shimmering. "P-Please come in." It eased the door open and all my classmates looked and stared at me as I entered. I tried to chase away the consciousness and look at each of them. No words came out of their mouths. They just stared at me with adoration. "Please introduce yourself, Miss." I nodded and smiled at everyone. "Hi.I'm Nhiana Quiza.I'm new here.I hope we'll get along." "Find your seat, Miss Quiza." Smiling I headed to the back. There are two vacant seats and I choose the one which is near at the window. "Professor, what is your name, anyway?" He forgot to tell me. "Ahhh ... sorry.I'm Gus Salazar.Your Biology Teacher.Call me Sir not Professor.Yan kasi ang nakasanayan dito.Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself as well." Parang nahihiyang sabi pa nito "You Sir ha. Just saw the beautiful forgot to introduce yourself." Hirit one of my classmates "I'll report you to your wifey, Sir. You've been hit by someone else." "Quiet, class." Sir said shyly I'm not a fool not to know what's going on. "Class dismissed!" Sir said stunned and quickly left "Yessss !!!" Everyone shouted in joy and I unbelievably shook my head. I guess that was their way to get dismissed early. "Shoot! That's really nice!" I was surprised when I looked up they were all around me. They just stared at my face as if criticizing. "Hi. I'm Hero. The hero of your life, Miss Ganda." Introduced the man with blonde hair The woman next to him pushed it with maltreatment the former. "Your line, Hero. It's rotten!" He shouted and turned to me "You're so freaking gorgeous. May I know where you bought your skin care products?" I laughed at the question. "I don't do skin care." "What ?! For real ?!" suddenly shouted the man with a shrill voice 'Is gay.' "Yes." I replied "Woahh .." they whispered in amazement They introduced themselves one by one and they took me to the cafe afterwards. When we entered the cafeteria, the people here immediately turned around. The strength of the voices of those with me. We turned to the counter. "I'll order for you, Nhiana Ganda." Kiel said smiling I shook. "I'm fine, Kiel. Don't worry." It no longer roared and was already at the table where the others were already. "Oh my ... Is she even real?" "Plastic surgery." "She's freaking beautiful!" "Nice tol! Strategic later." "She's real! Shoot! She's too beautiful." Those are just a few of the whispers I hear. I simply looked around and they were all looking at me. Geez ... "Nhiana!" Shaine and Shane and the rest of us waved at me. Smiling I headed to where they were. "How can she walk so gracefully?" "Woahh ..." I just ignored them and sat between Shane and Shaine.
