When a mysterious voice calls out during the night young Nova can’t help but to follow it deep into the dark woods surrounding campus.

"Sign the papers, Estella." Marco slid the divorce papers across the mahogany table, his eyes fixed on Claudia, who hovered by his side with a victorious smile. "Did you really think a nobody like you could keep me?" Estella's throat tightened as she forced herself to meet his gaze. The diamond on Claudia's finger caught the light—his best friend now wearing what should have been hers forever. "You should be grateful," Claudia murmured, resting a hand on her belly. "Letting you go is the kindest thing we've done for you." When Estella married into the powerful Valdez family, she believed in love conquering all. Instead, she found herself cast out, Helena Valdez herself showing her the door when Claudia announced her pregnancy. Then Alejandro De Luca appeared—Marco's sworn enemy offering an unexpected proposition. "A contract marriage," he said simply. "You get protection. I get revenge." Together, they plotted to dismantle the very family that had humiliated her. With each calculated move, Estella reclaimed pieces of herself she thought lost forever. But revenge is a dangerous game. As their plan unfolded and tragedy struck, Estella discovered that survival meant more than settling scores—it meant learning to wield her pain as power. The quietest heart, after all, often hides the most dangerous storm.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The very first thing I do after I come back to life is find a pig and get married to it. In my past life, I was on the brink of getting engaged to my lover of ten years, Anthony Warner, who was a regimental colonel. In order to celebrate my engagement, Hannah Larson, my cousin, gave me a bracelet, and since it was a thoughtful gift from her, I wore it all the time. Yet, on our engagement day, Anthony didn't just call off our engagement, but he also berated me, calling me a tramp and a homewrecker who destroyed his relationship with Hannah. I was completely at a loss and tried to defend myself, but Hannah suddenly stepped forward and burst out crying. "I know my family and educational background surpass yours, but you can't just ruin my relationship with Anthony out of jealousy, Natalie! Anthony and I have already made a lifelong commitment to each other, so please just let it go!" Anthony turned and led Hannah away. They then got engaged shortly afterward. I was left standing there, becoming the subject of gossip from my relatives. They called me a shameless home-wrecker, and their scorn extended to my parents, who were shamed for raising such a child. They eventually took their own lives from all the rumors, and I couldn't bear the pain of losing them, so I ended myself, too. I suddenly open my eyes and find myself returning to the day Hannah presents me with the bracelet.

Après avoir annulé pour la 88 fois notre mariage, j'ai appelé mon associé pour lui annoncer ma décision : « Je me porte volontaire pour le développement du marché en Hériville. » Sa voix stupéfaite a résonné à l'autre bout du fil : « Tu es sûre ? Ce projet nécessite un engagement de dix ans sur place. Tu viens de te marier, ton mari est d'accord pour une séparation immédiate ? Et tes parents ? Ton plus grand rêve n'était-il pas de rester à leurs côtés ? » Fixant l'église vide, j'ai ri amèrement : « Le mariage a encore été annulé, de quel mari parles-tu ? Quant à mes parents, Claudine leur suffit. » Après un silence, l'homme a fini par acquiescer : « D'accord. Prépare-toi, tu pourras partir demain. » Raccrochant, j'ai laissé mes larmes couler sur ma robe de mariée. Oui, en ce jour qui aurait dû être le plus heureux de ma vie, Claudine Sadoul, ma sœur adoptive, avait encore tenté de se suicider à cause de sa dépression. Et une fois de plus, Gauthier Lortis, mon futur époux, avait annulé notre mariage. Je l'avais regardé, épuisée et désespérée : « C'est la 88 fois. » Rempli de remords, il avait baissé la tête pour me cajoler : « Accorde-moi encore un peu de temps, Léone. Tu sais bien que depuis cet accident, Claudine est si fragile… J'ai tellement peur qu'elle fasse une bêtise. Cette fois, je vais avoir une conversation claire avec elle. Ensuite, nous officialiserons notre union, immédiatement. » Mes parents, indifférents à mon chagrin, avaient insisté : « Léone, laisse Gauthier partir. Si Claudine n'avait pas été kidnappée à cause de toi, elle ne souffrirait pas de dépression. L'empêcher d'aller la sauver, c'est vouloir sa mort ? » « Comment peux-tu être aussi égoïste ? Ton mariage est-il plus important que sa vie ? » Ces reproches, je les avais entendus maintes fois. Auparavant, je m'étais défendue. Mais cette fois, j'étais restée silencieuse. Puisque mon fiancé et mes parents me rejetaient et ne me faisaient pas confiance, je disparaîtrais de leur monde !
