Si Mia ay lumaki sa isang pamilyang walang pagmamahal at puro kalupitan ang natanggap. Para sa kanila, isa lang siyang pabigat. Kaya nang ipagkasundo siyang ipakasal sa pinaka kinatatakutan na lalaki sa bayan—isang makapangyarihang tao na kilala sa kanyang pagiging malupit—hindi na siya nagreklamo. Matagal na niyang alam na darating ang araw na ito, at wala siyang inaasahang masayang kinabukasan. Ngunit pagdating niya sa tahanan ng kanyang mapapangasawa, natuklasan niyang mali ang lahat ng narinig niyang tsismis. Sa halip na isang halimaw na walang awa, nakilala niya ang isang lalaking bagamat seryoso, ay may kakayahang magpakita ng kabutihan. Unti-unti, naguguluhan siya sa hindi pamilyar na mundo ng pagmamahal at pag-aaruga. Ngunit para kay Mia, na lumaki sa takot at hindi kailanman nakaranas ng tunay na pagmamahal, kaya ba niyang matutong buksan ang kanyang puso? O mananatili siyang bihag ng kanyang madilim na nakaraan at tanggihan ang pag-ibig na nasa harapan na niya?

Angela Bailey spent six years believing her marriage was built on love, only to discover her devoted husband was nothing more than a polished illusion. When she filed for divorce and asked her daughter to leave with her, the little girl clung to another woman’s hand and called her “Mom.” Donald Turner, cold and entitled, told her, “As long as you apologize to Nina, you can still live your high-society life.” Angela scoffed. “You might not even stay in high society yourself.” She walked out of the Turner household with nothing, determined to rebuild her life from the ground up. With her own talent and grit, she joined a new company and went head-to-head with her ex. Just when Donald realized his mistake and wanted her back, another man stepped into Angela’s life—someone who protected her openly, supported her quietly, and cherished her without hesitation. Donald regretted everything and wanted her back. He appeared with their daughter, eyes red as he pleaded, “I’ll give you the entire Turner family. Please love me and our daughter again.” The man beside Angela laughed. “The Turner family? That means nothing. Angela doesn’t need it. And as for a daughter…” He looked at Angela, and together they said, “We already have one.”

After three years of marriage, William Harris’s first love, the woman he broke up with six years ago, returned from abroad. And she brought back a five-year-old son with her. Charlotte handed him the divorce papers with both hands. “Let’s end this. It’s better for you, for me, and for her.” William glanced at her and said dismissively, “Divorce? Can you afford to leave me?” Charlotte threw down the divorce papers and cut him out of her life for good. She severed every tie to the past and poured all her energy into her career, quickly rising to become an internationally renowned sleep disorder specialist. Powerful figures across the globe owed her favors and respected her work. The youngest heir of a foreign financial empire said, “Charlotte, just divorce him already. I can’t wait any longer.” The CEO of a multinational corporation said, “Charlotte, I’ll go with you when you file for divorce.” A world-famous attorney told her, “Charlotte, I’ll handle your divorce case myself.” Charlotte rubbed her temples. It wasn’t that she didn’t want the divorce. He was the one who refused to divorce her no matter what. Left with no other option, she made a public announcement. “Whoever can actually get this divorce finalized gets VIP seating at my divorce party.” Not long after, William received a divorce notice from her lawyer right in the middle of a shareholders meeting. Soon after that, a multi-billion-dollar project of his fell through. That same afternoon, he was nearly hit by a car right outside his own company. Later, Charlotte arrived at the hospital carrying a bouquet of flowers. “Let’s end this,” she said softly. “It’s better for everyone.” The cold and dignified William pulled her tightly into his arms, his eyes reddening. “You want a divorce? That’ll happen over my dead body.”

Who would win, the universe or I ? What Ancient secret lies between Alpha Killian and i?
