Johannes 15 12 17

At age 5, I met you. Understood that I was born to marry you. You were silent, you were shy. But I managed to make you be my friend. At age 13, I fell in love with you. I loved your cheeky smile. I loved the way I am the only person you rely on.At age 17, I became yours and promised myself to you. I pledged to wait for you no matter how long. You were sweet, caring, and treated me like I'm the only woman in your world. At age 18, you left. Moving to another country to meet the future that you are born to. I waited but you hardly called. At age 25, you came back for me, but you're not the man I knew. From the day I was born, I was meant to be his. It was okay. Everything was great. I loved him as we played on the playgrounds, as we watched grow up- and he loved me. Suddenly, he left with his father to go to Italy leaving me behind for seven years, he came back but he wasn't the same.From the day I was born, I was meant to be his. I was happy to be his. But he was no longer the man who I was betrothed to.

Aliyah Haven was only 17 when her struggling family made the difficult decision to give her away to Pedro Perez, a cold and calculating billionaire heir. This transaction was disguised as a marriage, but it was filled with underlying motives. In exchange for money and a better future, her family sacrificed her innocence. Pedro was in need of a male heir to secure his dying father's empire, something his barren wife could not provide. Aliyah became the perfect pawn in his plan. After giving birth to a son, Andre, she was cast aside — her baby taken, her life shattered. Left to rot while Pedro returned to his wife, she swore revenge. Ten years later, Aliyah returns as a new woman — refined, brilliant, and wealthy in her own right. She’s no longer the naive girl who was bought. She's here to burn the empire Pedro built — from his business to his heart. What Pedro doesn't know is that the woman he’s falling for is the same girl he once destroyed. And when the truth explodes, everything he built starts to crumble — from media scandals to corporate collapse, to a vicious divorce from his manipulative wife. But love, twisted and torn as it may be, isn't done with them yet.

Kiara tidak pernah berpikir bahwa ia akan menjadi seorang istri dari Keith Wilson, gurunya sendiri di usianya yang masih 17 tahun. Ia dan Keith menikah bukan karena saling cinta, melainkan perjodohan yang sudah diatur oleh kedua orangtua mereka. Meski Kiara menentang keras, tapi tidak dengan Keith yang justru menerimanya dengan ikhlas. Kiara tak sadar bahwa ada niat tersembunyi dari perjodohan yang terkesan mendadak dan terburu-buru itu. Belum lagi, Kiara sendiri dibuat tak percaya pada sikap Keith setelah menjadi suaminya yang bersikap sangat posesif serta mengekang ruang geraknya karena larangan-larangan aneh yang pria itu beri. Permasalahan perlahan kian datang mengguncang kehidupan baru Kiara, dimulai dari kekecewaan teman-temannya tentang berita pernikahannya yang ia sembunyikan, lalu hubungan Keith dengan wanita yang jelas mencintai suaminya itu, serta kenyataan dan fakta pahit tentang hidupnya juga masalalunya yang selama ini disembunyikan oleh kedua orangtuanya. Akankah Kiara berhasil melalui dan menyembuhkan luka hatinya itu? Memaafkan masalalu dan menerima Keith kembali yang jelas sudah menyakiti hatinya, yang sayangnya sudah terjatuh dalam pada suaminya tersebut?

17 was the year everything shattered. My parents divorced. My lover cheated. My best friend deceived me. Now, all I want is to survive senior year in silence. But silence isn’t possible when your skin suddenly glows with weird runes, the world freezes in arithmetic class, and a recruiter pulls you to The Obsidian Academy school for monsters that shouldn’t exist. I don’t know what I am. But the boys here… they appear determined to find out: A storm-eyed werewolf who saves me but swears I’ll ruin him. A vampire prince who says my blood is his alone. A dragon boy who nearly burns me alive protecting me. A sinfully hot professor who stares at me like I broke his heart in another life. I came here hoping for answers. Instead, I’ve unearthed a curse older than the Academy itself, one that binds me to them in ways I can’t fight. And when passion becomes deadly, treachery bleeds deeper than love. I thought I was human. But the monsters aren’t my foes. The true risk is what I’m becoming.
