Introduction

Faith only wanted a quiet life in Zambales—teaching, caring for her child Jairee, and burying the pain of her past. But when Austin, her first love, suddenly returns, her world is turned upside down. A desperate agreement forces her into a cold marriage where silence and distance cut deeper than any wound.

Complicated family secrets begin to unravel: a manipulative mother-in-law, a hidden twin brother, lost loves, betrayals, and revelations that threaten to destroy everything Faith holds dear. With Jairee’s life at the center of a dangerous web of lies and vengeance, Faith must summon the strength to fight for her child, her love, and her dignity.

But in a world where every truth hides another deception, can Faith and Austin ever truly find peace—and a love strong enough to survive the past?

Chapter 1

Faith's POV

"Faith! Sir Principal is calling you to the office, as in now!" Charie exclaimed as she nearly tripped rushing to my classroom door.

"You scared me, Charie!" I almost jumped, clutching my chest. My friend really talks like a firetruck siren.

"Why though? Isn’t it a bit early for Sir?" I asked while trying to calm myself down.

"Beats me! I was just told to call you, girl. Maybe he just wants to see you to brighten up his morning! Hahaha!" she said with a wink. There she goes again. She never gets tired of teasing me, especially since she knows how obvious Sir Principal’s admiration for me is. Yes, he’s handsome, kind, responsible, and has a position. But no matter how hard I try, I just don’t feel anything for him. Nothing at all. It’s like my heart is numb—or maybe it’s made of stone.

"Hey, you’re zoning out again! Go to the office already. If Sir suddenly checks our lesson plans, I’m doomed, I swear." Charie looked a bit worried, probably because she’s always late in submitting her lesson plans. She has a lot going on at home. I admire her sometimes—despite being tired, she’s still cheerful. That’s one of the reasons why she’s so dear to me as a friend.

"Alright, I’m going. But why didn’t you print your lesson plan last night before bed? You prioritized your K-drama again, didn’t you?" I teased her, even though I knew there was a more serious reason behind her delay.

"Oops, wrong guess! Hahaha! I was editing a post for social media, hoping it might go viral, gain followers, and earn money. You know how hard it is to stretch our salary. When will we ever get rich, huh?" I remembered one time she went live and even included me, revealing that I’m still single. She practically sold me online. So embarrassing. She’s crazy.

"Keep dreaming! Does anyone get rich in our profession? On paper, maybe." I laughed, though there was truth in what I said. Real talk—no one gets rich from teaching. When salaries go up, prices go up too. But it’s fine as long as we get by daily and save a little.

I was heading to the classroom door when Jomer suddenly appeared. Oh no… here we go again.

"Flowers for the most beautiful teacher in all of Zambales!" he proudly said, holding a bouquet. Smiling, but stressful.

"Thanks, Jomer..." I forced a smile as I accepted the flowers.

"Jomer, how many times do I have to tell you that friendship is all I can offer? I hope you understand. You don’t need to give me flowers and gifts every day." My voice already sounded tired. It’s not funny anymore when it’s repetitive.

"Sorry, Faith. But I won’t stop... not until we end up in LOVE." He even pronounced it like a movie line. Annoying but funny.

"You know what, Jomer, just pay attention to Nicole. She used to love you so much!" Charie interrupted, glancing at Nicole who happened to pass by, giving me a dirty look like she was about to throw food at my face.

"Speaking of the devil! Jomer, go woo that witch instead. Leave my best friend alone." she said loudly, making sure Nicole heard.

"Maybe I should throw you into the street, Charie? You’re like a frog that got wet. Maybe you like me, huh? Sorry girl, I don’t go for roasted pigs."

"What did you say? Pig? Frog? Excuse me! Me, like you? Never! Over my sexy body, even if you were the last man on earth, I would never go for you!" Charie’s face turned red with anger.

"You two, stop it already. Students are arriving. I’m leaving." I was tired of their endless bickering.

"Go ahead, Faith. Your love of your life might be getting impatient." she teased as I walked down the hallway.

"Stop it, Charie. Someone might hear you."

"Better Sir than Jomer who looks like a gecko. And he’s a womanizer too."

"Me, a gecko?! Maybe I should skin you alive!" I didn’t hear the rest of their argument. I just ran toward the office. In my rush, I didn’t notice Nicole—ugh, that witch—and bumped into her. Her lesson plan folders fell.

"What the heck! Are you blind or just doing it on purpose?!" she shouted while picking up the papers.

"Sorry, Nicole. I didn’t mean to. I was just in a hurry." I helped her pick up the folder she dropped.

"The hallway is wide. I’m big. You didn’t see me?!" she said sarcastically.

"I was rushing because Sir Jaecob called me."

"So? What’s it to me if he called you? After Jomer, now it’s Sir Jaecob? You’re something else, Faith." she raised an eyebrow, as if slapping me with her words. My God... please give me patience. It’s not easy dealing with people like this every day.

"Think whatever you want, Nicole. I’m here to work. Not to do anything that’ll ruin me."

"Whatever. Miss Pretty." she rolled her eyes and walked past me like I was the one at fault. Okay, I admit I was wrong for bumping into her. That’s all.

I wanted to say more, but I let it go. She’s not worth my energy. I know why she’s like that to me. Sigh. How many more people will I encounter today who’ll drain my energy? I’m just going to the office, but it feels like a whole movie already happened today. If this school weren’t so close to where I live, I would’ve left long ago. It saves me a lot on fare, yes. But in exchange: a whole barangay of stress. Almost every day. That’s just how it is—teacher life.

"Come here."
"What?" It was out of my mouth before I could stop it. I did not wait for him to answer me, I walked toward him.
"Dance on my lap."
My head screamed at me to turn around and run. But my whole body responded to his command.
"Yes, Alpha," I pulled my dress over my body, it dropped over my head and fell to the ground behind me. I was left in nothing but my matching bra and thong. My hands covered my chest on reflex.
"Let me see."
My hands dropped to my sides.
I lowered myself into his lap, facing him. His eyes peered into mine, and I could feel his hot breath fan my face. His dick responded to all my moves, hardening against my now-moist vagina. I swallowed hard, allowing my lips to part in a ragged breath. His hands trailed up to my waist.
"No touching."

"Tell me to stop, and I will," he murmured against my ear. "But if you don't..."
He didn't finish. He didn't need to.
I didn't tell him to stop.
Instead, my fingers curled into his shirt, clutching the fabric as though it was my only anchor. Something in him snapped—something he had been holding back for too long. His mouth found mine in a kiss that wasn't tender, but hungry, desperate.
I gasped into him, his hand sliding up to cup my jaw, holding me as if afraid I might vanish.
"You drive me insane," he breathed against my mouth, his lips trailing to my throat. "I can't lose you, Ella. Not you."
My head fell back, a soft sound escaping me as his fingers memorized my waist. My anger melted beneath his desperation.
"James..." I whispered, more plea than protest.
His hand caught mine, fingers threading together tightly. "I'll bring him back. I swear it. Just... don't turn away from me. Please."
The word please—low, ragged, almost broken—undid me more than anything else could have.

In a werewolf pack that despised weakness, Aphrodite learned to survive by staying quiet, keeping her head down, and enduring cruelty in silence. The Alpha heirs hated her. The future Beta and Gamma made her life unbearable. When she finally breaks and seeks freedom at the Moon Goddess temple, she does not find release.

She finds truth.

Aphrodite is not human at all. She is a rare white wolf, descended from an ancient Direwolf bloodline long believed extinct. The ritual meant to sever her ties awakens her wolf instead and with it comes the scent of five mates bound to her by fate.

The Alpha twins who once scorned her now cannot stay away. A human hunter walks beside her and proves that strength is not born of fangs or dominance. A cursed Wolf King holds the key to her past and her father’s imprisonment. And watching from the shadows is one who was never meant to interfere at all.

Love does not come in one form. Neither does power.

In a world ruled by gods and wolves, Aphrodite will become something neither ever expected.
