She doesn’t know if she’s walking into a marriage, or a battlefield. And Lucian has secrets that could destroy her completely. One thing is certain: in a world where love is forced, trust is rare, and enemies are everywhere… nothing is as it seems.

Sa edad na 19, gumuho ang mundo ni Eliana “Yana” Ledesma. Biglang namatay ang ama, at lahat ng ari-arian nila misteryosong napunta sa kanyang malupit na madrasta. Pinalayas siya at ilang araw syang nagpalabuy-laboy sa kalsada. Isang gabi, muntik na siyang mapahamak… Mabuti na lang ay nailigtas siya ng isang estranghero. Si Adrian Villaverde.

Habang nakikituloy si Yana sa puder ni Adrian, nagulat siya nang bigla itong nag-abot ng kontrata na kailangan nilang magpakasal. Hindi kailangan magkaroon ng seremonya, sex, o kahit damdamin man lang. Sa papel lang talaga.

The day my family and the Fido family decided I should marry Callum Fido, I shocked everyone by rejecting the arrangement. Without hesitation, I instead chose Jaxon Fido, Callum’s uncle. Everyone was stunned. After all, everyone in Central City knew I, Moon Sawyer, had loved Callum more than I loved myself. When I was young and naive, I had declared I would marry no one but him. I followed him for ten years and lost who I was in the process. If he told me to go left, I would never dare turn right. If he told me to jump into the ocean, I would have done it without thinking. In my past life, I got to marry Callum, just like I always wanted. But on our wedding day, he shut the door in my face. He pressed the knife he had personally sharpened against my chest and said, “The one I love and want to marry has always been Ruby. The only way you’ll enter this house is as a dead body.” Ruby Sawyer was my sister. The Fido family had called him ungrateful and forced him to go through with the marriage. But after the wedding, he kept looking for women who looked like Ruby and flaunted his affection for them in front of everyone. He let every one of his mistresses insult me, belittle me, and walk all over me. When I was pregnant, I was pushed down the stairs, and both my baby and I died. With a second chance at life, I chose to stay away from him and let him be with Ruby. But I never expected that the day the Fido family agreed to my new engagement, Callum would completely lose his mind.

She swore to succeed on her own terms, refusing to let her family’s power shape her future. Her success became the ultimate sweet revenge, exposing Nicole’s lies and taking back her life. Pero paano kung ang inaakala niyang katapusan ng kanyang paghihirap mula sa pang-aabuso ng mga nasa paligid niya ay simula pa lang—the beginning of a truth about herself she never knew?
