Sa kagustuhan ni Aira na makalimutan ang ginawang panloloko ng boyfriend niya, naglasing siya sa bar. Kinabukasan, nagising na lamang siya sa sobrang sakit ng ulo niya, pati na rin ng ibabang bahagi ng kanyang pagkababae. Nagulat siya nang tumambad sa kanyang paningin ang estrangherong lalaking katabi niya sa kama. Dali-dali siyang nagbihis at nilisan ang lugar na ‘yon. Ngunit tila nanunukso ang tadhana. Pagkalipas ng ilang linggo, sa kanyang pagbabalik sa trabaho, doon niya muling nakaharap ang lalaking pilit niyang kinalimutan. Siya pala ang bagong CEO ng kanilang kumpanya—si Kael Ramirez. “Hindi ko nakalimutan ang gabing 'yon," wika nito nang minsang ipatawag siya sa opisina. “ “Sir anuman ang nangyari noon, it was just a mistake.” “But for me, that was the best mistake I've ever had." Bigla siyang kinabahan. "Sir, let's pretend it did not happen,” mabilis niyang wika. "Well, it's not my case,” anito. “I claimed you once kaya akin ka lang at paulit-ulit kitang aangkinin hangga't gusto ko."

Aku dan suamiku sudah menikah lima tahun. Akhirnya, aku hamil anaknya. Namun, tiba-tiba adik kelasku malah mencariku dengan perut hamil. Dia mengatakan itu adalah anak suamiku dan memintaku mengizinkannya melahirkan. Aku tertawa. Kemudian, aku menyerahkan laporan pemeriksaan kepada suamiku, yang menyatakan bahwa dia mandul.

Ketika Kepala Keluarga Karsa menjadi sasaran serangan bom bunuh diri. Suamiku, Daren Karsa, yang menjabat sebagai kepala pengawal, sedang membawa sekelompok pengawal untuk mengantar teman masa kecilnya, Freya Hastanta, menonton peragaan busana. Alih-alih menekan cincin sinyal darurat, aku dengan perut hamil menerjang ke arah kepala keluarga dan menahan ledakan dengan tubuhku. Di kehidupan sebelumnya, aku menekannya. Daren meninggalkan Freya dan bergegas kembali, menyelamatkan kepala keluarga, sehingga dia menjadi tangan kanan kepala keluarga. Namun, Freya marah karena Daren pergi, lalu menyeberangi jalan tol dan tertabrak mobil hingga tewas. Di permukaan Daren tidak mengatakan apa-apa, tetapi pada hari aku melahirkan, dia mengirimku ke tempat pelelangan bawah tanah. "Di sisi kepala keluarga ada begitu banyak pengawal yang melindunginya, kenapa kau justru memaksaku untuk kembali? Bukannya itu demi gengsimu sebagai istri tangan kanan kepala keluarga?" "Kalau bukan karena kau, Freya nggak akan mati. Semua penderitaan yang dia alami, harus kau bayar berkali-kali lipat!" Aku menyaksikan dengan mata kepalaku sendiri organ-organ tubuhku dilelang satu per satu, bahkan tali pusar anakku pun tidak luput. Akhirnya, aku mati karena infeksi saat pengangkatan organ. Ketika membuka mata lagi, aku kembali ke hari saat kepala keluarga diserang.

I was sold to the devil in a bespoke Italian suit. Andre Volkov. The Alpha of the Onyx Pack. A cold, tattooed sadist who views me as nothing more than a merger acquisition to secure his European borders. I hated him before I even met him. I hated the way his eyes stripped me bare, and I hated the shiver of fear that raced through me when he forced his ring onto my finger. I vowed to lock my heart in a cage of ice. I vowed never to let him break me. But on our wedding night, something changed. The man who came to me in the dark wasn’t the cold, loud tyrant who mocked me at the altar. He was silent. Intense. His touch wasn't just possessive; it was worshipful. Dangerous. When he sank his teeth into my neck, claiming me as his mate, I didn't push him away. I burned for him. I thought I was falling for my husband. I didn't know the Volkov bloodline carried a secret. I didn't know there were two of them. And now, I’ve been marked by the wrong brother.

Orenda was created by the God of Destruction to protect the people of the world from the shadow demons known as eyti that now plague it. For thousands of years she - alongside her brother - fulfilled this sacred duty with ease...until now. Never in her millennia did Orenda dream she would be blessed with a soulmate. She was even less prepared when her soulmate turned out to be none other than the creator of the very beings she was created to fight; the God of Malice, Azadou. Azadou is cold, uncaring and has a deep hatred of the Gods. Everyone keeps telling her to stay far away and reject him, but like the pull of two opposing magnets, these two cosmic beings can't resist the draw to each other. As Orenda puts her heart, soul and dignity on the line to win the heart of her destined half, a new and mysterious threat emerges... Something sinister is afoot and it has big plans for Orenda.
