Seraphina Thorne endured the cold indifference of her billionaire husband, Alexander. To him, she was just a fake wife forced upon him to secure his succession. He made it clear that his heart belonged to a fierce savior who rescued him abroad.
His words shattered her heart: “You know that I like someone else, so there's no point in wasting our time.”
Seraphina still tried to melt his ice, even using her master's acupuncture to save his life. But when she was brutally kidnapped, Alexander coldly told her to 'Leave me out of it.’ Her chest tightened as the cold reality of his rejection bled through her, sharper than any blade, and it froze her love.
Using her hidden combat training, she broke free from her captor, discarded her wedding ring, and vanished from his life.
Determined to stay faithful to the savior he promised to marry, Alexander never bothered getting to know his contract wife, Seraphina. But a brief encounter at their villa sparked something he couldn't explain. When she was kidnapped, he forced himself to play the unbothered husband, masking his desperation only to buy time for his team to track her down.
He told himself his anxiety for her safety was purely an obligation, but her desperate whisper "Alexander..." refused to leave his head. It felt achingly familiar, like a promise he had forgotten he ever made.
Now, his rescue plan came a moment too late. By the time he realized his missing savior and neglected wife were the exact same woman, Seraphina was already gone.
