"Kalau kamu sangat membenciku, kenapa kamu berusaha menikahiku, bahkan berjuang mendapatkan hatiku?" tanya Griceliene Albert, putri tunggal keluarga Marques Albert.  Wajah cantiknya kini tampak layu penuh kepedihan, pipinya yang dulu chubby berubah menjadi cekung.  Griceliene, yang dulunya dikenal sebagai wanita tercantik di Kekaisaran Utara, kini bagaikan bunga yang layu hampir mati. Tubuhnya yang kurus seolah tak berdaya tersapu angin.  Hidupnya berubah drastis setelah Kaisar Devone Lorens—yang tak lain paman suaminya—meninggal dunia akibat pemberontakan, dan keluarganya dieksekusi. Yang lebih parah lagi, orang yang mengeksekusi kedua orang tuanya adalah suaminya sendiri, tepat di hadapannya dan di depan seluruh rakyat Kekaisaran Utara.  Duke Camille Lorens membalas pertanyaan istrinya dengan tawa penuh penghinaan. Ia mencengkram dagu Griceliene dengan kasar.  "Artinya kamu kalah, karena aku berhasil merebut hatimu. Griceliene, semua ini baru permulaan. Penderitaanmu yang sesungguhnya akan segera menantimu," ucap Camille sebelum mengunci pintu loteng, tempat Griceliene dikurung selama ini.

SECOND CHANCES AT SUNRISE Years ago, Yara and Jamal were young, in love, and certain about forever—until life pulled them apart. Their relationship didn’t end in chaos, but in painful silence. Jamal, determined to build an empire, chose ambition when fear whispered that love would slow him down. Yara, brilliant and proud, walked away without demanding the closure her heart quietly begged for. Now, Jamal Adeyemi is a confident and charismatic CEO—one who commands industries, decisions, and attention. Success follows him everywhere, yet something essential has always felt missing. Yara, now a celebrated designer, has built her own creative world with warmth, resilience, and independence. Her heart didn’t turn cold—it simply learned caution. Fate reunites them over cinnamon-flushed coffee in Lagos. The spark remains, but neither believes that old love guarantees a new beginning. This time, Jamal does not rush or assume. He shows up—with patience, sincerity, steady action, and emotional wisdom he once lacked. Lunch dates lead to long conversations, honest moments, and a healing coastal getaway where past wounds finally find voice. But second chances demand more than nostalgia—they require trust rebuilt, fears confronted, and love proven through presence and honesty. In rediscovering each other, Jamal and Yara learn that the safest kind of forever isn’t loud—it arrives like sunrise: Soft. Steady. Certain. Earned.

Ever since my mom gave birth to her second child, everything in the household is tied to drawing lots. Everyone has to draw lots in order to decide whose favorite food will be served for each meal. We have to draw lots to see who among us gets a hug from our parents. Every time, I end up drawing the short end of the stick, so everyone automatically assumes that my younger sister, Anabelle Madden, gets the better lot. She easily reaps my parents' love without having to do anything at all. Whenever I feel like crying because of the injustice, Mom will scold me instantly. "I bought the lottery box because I was worried that you might feel upset about this. I'm doing this just to be fair to both of you. "If you want something, you have to be the one deciding who gets what. Your father and I won't interfere with your decision at all. Since you can't draw the better lot, that just means you have bad luck." Hence, I keep practicing my lot-drawing skills every day, hoping that I can eventually draw the better lot in order to obtain my parents' love. But for ten years, I never get to draw the better lot. Not even once. On my birthday, Anabelle wants to go to the amusement park, so Mom tells us to draw lots once again. I secretly glue two short lots together before giving it to Mom in an attempt to get her to stay with me. Instead, she slaps me and berates me for being a disobedient child who cheats in lot-drawing. Then, she leaves the house with Anabelle. When I fall to the floor, I feel the short sticks piercing through my neck.
