Fünf Jahre Ehe. Fünf Jahre, in denen Élodie alles für Raphaël aufgab – selbst ihre kühnsten beruflichen Träume blieben auf der Strecke. Fünf Jahre, in denen sie auf einen Funken Zuneigung wartete. Doch Raphaël war nie da. Nicht an ihren Jahrestagen. Nicht, wenn er es versprochen hatte. Selbst an ihrem dreißigsten Geburtstag blieb sein Platz leer. Er sei „verhindert“, hieß es kühl. Doch ausgerechnet an diesem Tag stand Raphaël am Flughafen. Er wartete – allerdings auf die einzige Frau, die in seinem Leben jemals eine Rolle gespielt hatte. Für Élodie reichte es nur für ein liebloses Geschenk: eine Handtasche, hastig in irgendeiner Boutique besorgt. Als Élodies Vater schwer erkrankte, kannte Raphaël kein Erbarmen.

Bis dass der Tod uns scheidet.“

Tatlong taon na ang lumipas mula nang iniwan ako ni Cassiel Esquivel—the man who once owned me in every way. A trillionaire tech mogul. Ruthless in business and even more ruthless in love. Akala ko ligtas na ako. Akala ko tapos na ang lahat sa amin. But one day, I woke up in his private jet—kidnapped, disoriented, and furious. “I’m saving your life,” sabi niya, “because you clearly have no idea what kind of danger you’re in.” Pero ano nga ba ang mas delikado? ‘Yong mga taong humahabol sa akin… o ‘yong lalaking minsan ko nang minahal at winasak ang puso ko? Now I’m trapped on a private island with the man who still knows every inch of me. The man I swore I’d never forgive. And maybe... the only man I’ll ever love. Pero para makawala sa kan’yang hawak, wala akong ibang paraan kundi akitin siya… kahit pa ang ibig sabihin nito ay sunugin ang sarili ko sa apoy ng pagnanasa.
