My boyfriend, Miles, finally invited me to his family’s Christmas dinner. I passed out on the way there. Half-conscious, I heard him whisper, “Sorry, Eva. Those thugs said you’re just their boss’s type. Too pretty for your own good, babe. Blame that—not me.” “Don’t be scared. If you help me pay off the debt… maybe they’ll let me have you back. I’ll make it up to you. For the rest of your life, I swear.” He wheeled me through the back of a casino. My family’s casino. The boss he was selling me to… was my brother. Ever since our parents died in a crossfire, my brother had taken full responsibility for me. More than a brother, he’d become a father figure—a protector. My stupid boyfriend should be scared—he had no idea how fiercely my brother protected me, or how ruthless he could be to anyone who dared hurt me.

On the eve of our wedding, Olivia Smith tells me that she wants to attend a bachelorette party. Not wanting to disappoint her, I agree to let her go. I even tell her to not drink that much at the party. She leaves a kiss on my cheek bashfully and tells me that she will make me the happiest man tomorrow. But on the next day, I can't reach OIivia via phone at all. Instead, I notice a post her childhood friend, Aiden Jones, has uploaded to his Instagram feed. "Tomorrow, you'll become another man's wife. Please let me claim you one last time." There's a close-up photo of two people smushing their cheeks together. After putting down my phone quietly, I inform everyone that the wedding has been canceled.

Isang gabi ang naging simula ng pagbabagong hindi inaasahan sa buhay ni Elisse Marquez. Sa gitna ng sakit na dulot ng pagtataksil ng kanyang pinsan at dating kasintahan, tinanggap niya ang imbitasyon ng kanyang kaibigan na dumalo sa isang engrandeng party. Layunin niyang takasan ang kasal ng pinsan niyang sumira sa kanyang tiwala at damdamin. Sa gabing iyon, pinili niyang kalimutan muna ang lahat at magpakalunod sa saya, musika, at liwanag. Doon niya nakilala ang isang misteryosong lalaki—isang estrangherong agad niyang nakaramdam ng koneksyon. Sa kabila ng pagiging hindi magkakilala, nagbahagi sila ng isang gabi ng init, saya, at emosyon. Isang gabing hindi niya inakalang mag-iiwan ng panghabambuhay na marka. Pagkaraan ng gabing iyon, bigla na lamang nawala ang lalaki. Walang pangalan, walang bakas, at walang paraan para hanapin siya. Ngunit mas mabigat pa rito ang natuklasan ni Elisse—siya ay buntis. Sa kabila ng takot at pagkalito, pinili niyang harapin ang bagong yugto ng kanyang buhay nang mag-isa, habang patuloy na iniingatan sa alaala ang lalaking minsang nagpasaya sa kanya. Lumipas ang panahon at nagkaroon si Elisse ng pagkakataong magtrabaho bilang advisor sa isang kilalang kumpanya. Dito niya nakilala si Matteo Alvarez, isang makapangyarihang CEO na kilala sa kanyang pagiging seryoso, mainitin ang ulo, at walang oras sa pag-ibig. Sa kabila ng kanyang matigas na personalidad, may lihim siyang hinahanap—ang babaeng nakasama niya sa isang gabing hindi niya makalimutan. Hindi nila alam na ang tadhana ay muli silang pagtatagpuin—sa paraang hindi nila inaasahan, at sa panahong magbabago sa kanilang kapalaran.

She underwent a death experience—at the hands of the family she cared for most, who then sold her off. At eight years old, Seraphina Valeza was adopted from an orphanage by the Hawthorne family, a run-down third-rate family in Lunada City. She lived for fifteen years there, always careful, thankful for a house that was not her home. She was an excellent student, kept her sufferings to herself, and obeyed them in return for their "kindness." When the Hawthorne family was on the verge of bankruptcy, they chose survival over conscience. Seraphina was forced to marry Julian Moreau, the heir of a second-rate elite family. The marriage was hell. Behind closed doors, Julian humiliated her, controlled her every move, and crushed her dignity. In public, she was paraded as a trophy wife; in private, she was nothing more than a disposable tool. Once Julian seized full control of the Hawthorne family, Seraphina lost even her last value. With no way out, she resorted to suicide. But destiny wanted otherwise and gave her another chance. She found herself in the same spot as she was on the day of her marriage. This time she did neither crying nor begging. Instead, she smiled and switched the groom. In front of stunned guests, Seraphina walked past Julian and stopped before a man sitting casually at the banquet table, dressed out of place and enjoying the food as if the wedding had nothing to do with him. Lucien Cross. The annoying guy she constantly quarreled with in college. The man who cried while carrying her dying body in her past life. The one whose love she came to realize onlqy when it was too late. This time, Seraphina will not let him go. And all those who wronged her will be punished, without exception.
