"Do you for a second think a flimsy thing such as your rejection will stop me from having what was deemed mine by the goddess herself? I will never accept your rejection, Adelaide Silverstone. I’m not above chaining you to my bed if need be. And if you still plan on going ahead with your rejection, then your cousin's head will roll before you utter the words." *** Adelaide Silverstone is a woman on a mission: kill the man who destroyed her life. When her mate turns out to be that very man, rejection is no escape, but revenge has never been straightforward, especially when secrets and half-truths threaten to shatter everything she thought she knew. Will she choose revenge… or the desire that burns hotter than her hatred?

Dua anak bermimpi mengubah sebuah negeri. Terlahir dari dua kasta berbeda, dua dunia mereka satukan bagai mencampur dua warna dalam satu kuas. Pada prosesnya, sesumbar ketidakmungkinan yang dilantangkan orang telah menggaungkan fakta bahwa sekecil pun langkah nyatanya dapat lebih menggelegar dari sebuah guntur.

Walau meragukan dan mustahil dikata orang, semesta yang seakan-akan turut memihak akhirnya menciptakan tanya dalam benak para peragu dan penentang. Oh, masa depan dan negeri yang lebih baik, adakah sungguh takdir milik si dua bocah untuk terwujud?
