Their naked bodies were shipping against each other. Her sapphire glossy orbs were staring at his brown eyes. "I love you, Cia. I love you to the extent that I will end and taint that life which would even think about taking you away from me," The firmness of his words were evident in his darkened eyes. "Even if it's your life," he rasped against her mouth. They both knew his love was irrational, an obsession for her. They loved each other enough, especially for her to let his love taint her existence. "I love you, Zale," And her words were enough to make him lose everything in her. She beautifully moaned his name as soon his warmth engulfed her deepest depth which made both of them close their eyes in pleasure, but they had never in their worst ever thought that their eyes would have to witness that thing which their future had stored for them. His deep brown orbs were staring at her who was clad in a beautiful white gown. Her sapphire orbs were downcast as she was standing at the altar but the irony was she was not his bride but his brother's.

"Do you, Miss Celia Reyes, take Mr Blake Alcazar as your lawfully wedded husband?" Those deep brown eyes turned predacious and her answer turned them voraciously vicious. "I do," she answered. An answer which sealed two destinies, which shattered two hearts and TAINTED two souls.

WARNING RATED SPG... Si Geraldine ay isang sikat at magaling na undercover agent na walang misyong hindi natatapos. Ngunit ang simpleng pagpapakasal niya bilang substitute bride sa isang lalaking iniwan sa altar ay nagdala sa kanya sa isang masalimuot na kwento ng pag-ibig, tungkulin, at nakatagong lihim. Ang lalaking iyon, si Michael Muller, ay hindi lamang isang negosyante kundi ang emperador ng pinakamakapangyarihang mafia sa mundo—ang mortal na kaaway ng gobyerno kung saan siya nagtatrabaho. Habang sinusubukan ni Geraldine na isagawa ang kanyang misyon laban kay Mike, unti-unti niyang natutuklasan ang kanilang malalim na koneksyon mula sa nakaraan at ang damdaming hindi niya mapigilan kahit pilit niyang nilalabanan. Ngunit sa mundo ng pagkakanulo at panganib, kailangang pumili ni Geraldine: ang sundin ang kanyang tungkulin bilang isang agent, o ang panindigan ang pagmamahal niya sa lalaking kinamumuhian ng organisasyong kanyang pinagsisilbihan. Mapapanindigan ba nila ang pag-ibig sa kabila ng dugo at kasinungalingan? O magwawakas ang lahat sa digmaan ng katapatan at kapalaran?
