After my divorce, I went to the southwest mountainous regions to volunteer for rescue work, where two years passed in the blink of an eye. One day, our daughter gets diagnosed with aplastic anemia, and her life can only be sustained through a bone marrow transplant from me. It's only then that my ex-wife thinks of me. She heads to the mountains with a group of bodyguards and searches everywhere, but she can't find a trace of me. She thinks I have deliberately hidden myself from her. "As long as you're willing to donate the bone marrow, I'll promise you visitation rights to see our daughter in the future." However, the townspeople tell her that I have long since passed away. She frowns slightly, her expression full of impatience as she says, "I never thought that, after all these years, he would still play these childish games." In the end, she searches high and low, only to unearth my bones.

"You think you have a choice?" Alberto's voice was low and lethal. "I am Alpha Supreme. What I decide is law." Akira, trembling on her knees, looked up at him through tears. “You can punish me all you want. It won’t change the truth. I love Gonzalo.” His jaw tightened, he could feel his blood boil from so much anger. “You are bound to me by fate, Akira. You’re mine, whether you like it or not.” But Akira didn’t flinch. Her heart belonged to another—and she refused to live in fear. Alberto’s cold smile returned. “As for my dear brother… he’ll pay for touching what’s mine.” Torn between fate and forbidden love, Akira must face the wrath of an Alpha scorned. Will Alberto’s obsession destroy them all, or will love defy destiny? When bloodlines, betrayal, and prophecy collide, only one truth remains—love may be a choice, but survival is certain.

Ciel disliked the alphas. He does not want to be near them and wants nothing to do with them. But if there is an alpha he disliked the most, it would be Maverick Garcia, the most popular alpha in their university. He can't stand Maverick and doesn't want to be in the same space as him. So when Ciel woke up in a strange room with Maverick sleeping next to him, both naked, and a bite mark suddenly appeared on his nape, Ciel immediately thought of one thing—flee. But before he could decide where to hide, Maverick had already found him. Ciel expected Maverick to blame him for what happened and point out how low of a human being he is as an omega. After all, the omegas were always to blame, not the alphas, but this did not happen. Instead, Maverick apologized to him and vowed to take responsibility for what had happened. And before Ciel could even decide what to do next, he had already found himself living with Maverick as the alpha's pair.
