La septième année de son mariage, Évelyne Lavigne a découvert que son mari avait un fils de six ans. Ce jour-là, cachée derrière le toboggan de la maternelle, elle a observé Martial Thiers se pencher pour prendre dans ses bras un petit garçon joueur : « Papa, ça fait tellement longtemps que tu n'es pas venu me voir ! » « Noah, je suis désolé. Le travail a été intense. Sois sage et écoute bien ta maman, d'accord ? » Ces mots l'ont foudroyée sur place, son esprit est devenu soudainement vide. Devant elle, les deux silhouettes, l'une grande, l'autre petite, avec leurs visages étrangement similaires, lui criaient la vérité : l'homme qui lui avait juré un amour éternel l'avait trahie depuis des années ! Pourtant, ils avaient grandi ensemble, s'aimant depuis l'enfance. Elle s'est souvenue comment elle avait pris un coup de couteau pour le sauver, perdant leur enfant à naître… et jusqu'à sa propre fertilité... À l'époque, agenouillé à son chevet, les yeux rougis, il lui avait juré : « Je me moque des enfants ! Toi, et seulement toi, es ce qui compte pour moi ! » Sa voix tremblante résonnait encore dans sa mémoire, mais maintenant, cette scène réduisait tous ces serments en poussière !

Si Arkin Andres, isang batang bilyonaryo, ay malapit nang ikasal sa babaeng pinakamamahal niya, si Zandreah Binonzo—isang elegante at napakagandang babae na hinahangaan ng lahat. Ang kanilang kasal ay itinakdang magbuklod sa dalawang makapangyarihang pamilya, ngunit isang buwan bago ang seremonya, natuklasan ni Arkin ang pagtataksil ni Zandreah. Sa isang pribadong beach sa Pilar, nasaksihan ni Arkin ang masayang pagtitinginan nina Zandreah at ng isang lalaking hindi niya kilala. Ang tagpong iyon ay winasak ang kanyang puso. Galit at sugatan, nagpasyang ipatigil ni Arkin ang kasal, ngunit tinutulan ito ng kanyang ama. Para sa pamilya, ang kasal ay hindi lamang tungkol sa pag-ibig—ito ay isang selyo ng kapangyarihan at karangalan. Sa desperasyon ng kanyang ama na mapanatili ang plano, kinuha nila si Yunifer Alcalde—isang bagong graduate ng fine arts na baon sa utang—upang pansamantalang ilihis ang atensyon ni Arkin. Bagamat nag-aalangan, tinanggap ni Yunifer ang kakaibang alok kapalit ng malaking bayad, kahit alam niyang si Arkin ay kilala bilang malamig, arogante, at malupit. Akala ni Yunifer, madali lang sundin ang mga utos ni Arkin at tiisin ang kanyang ugali. Ngunit habang magkasama sila, hindi niya inaasahang mas mahirap ito kaysa sa kanyang iniisip. Unti-unting nabuo ang tensyon sa pagitan nila, at ang damdamin ni Arkin para kay Yunifer ay naging mas matindi at makapangyarihan. Tatanggapin ba ni Yunifer ang baluktot na pagmamahal ni Arkin, o pipiliin niyang tumakas bago pa tuluyang maging huli ang lahat?

Shantali Mae Cross, a security guard at the Metropolitan Museum of Ancient Arts, encounters an impossible phenomenon during her night shift—smoke from the heating vents coalesces into the form of a cobra near ancient Egyptian canopic jars, showing her visions of possible futures. She sees herself accepting a promotion, arguing with a dark-haired man in a hospital, wearing a wedding dress, and standing at a graveside in autumn. Shaken by the experience, Shantali becomes obsessed with understanding what she witnessed, diving into research about serpent smoke divination practices. Her investigation reveals that others throughout history have experienced similar visions at crucial crossroads in their lives, but those who became consumed with interpreting and controlling their prophetic glimpses inevitably destroyed the very relationships and opportunities the visions had shown them. As Shantali spirals deeper into her research, she begins shutting out her boyfriend David, a fellow security guard who loves her deeply. When David witnesses the cobra phenomenon himself, he helps ground her in reality rather than obsession. Through her studies, particularly the warnings left by Dr. Amelia Thorne—a researcher who died alone after chasing similar mysteries—Shantali realizes the cobra's true message: choose love over fear, presence over obsession. The visions weren't warnings of tragedy but glimpses of a life fully lived with all its ordinary struggles and profound connections. When David proposes, Shantali chooses their real relationship over her pursuit of supernatural answers. She completes her research by writing a fictional novel about her experience, transforming obsession into art while helping future cobra witnesses understand that some mysteries are meant to guide rather than be solved. The story explores themes of choice versus destiny, the danger of sacrificing present love for future certainty, and the wisdom of embracing life's uncertainties alongside those who love us.
