Your past have finally caught up to you. You move one inch, your beloved best friend goes down for you… another innocent blood smeared on your dainty hands” he said smiling wickedly.

Si Lia Cruz ay isang pangalang kayang patahimikin ang buong fashion industry—isang babaeng binuo ang sariling mundo mula sa talento, disiplina, at katahimikan. Matapos ang isang masakit na diborsyo, iniwan niya hindi lang ang isang lalaki, kundi ang buhay na unti-unting kumain sa kanya. Akala niya, ang pag-alis ay sapat na para maging malaya. Akala niya, tapos na ang lahat. Si Adrian Serano ay hindi sanay matalo. Isang makapangyarihang billionaire CEO, sanay sa kontrol, at pag-angkin. Para sa kanya, ang pagkawala ni Lia ay hindi wakas—isa lamang itong pagkaantala. Ang mga bagay na minsan nang naging kanya ay hindi niya hinahayaang manatiling alaala lamang. “I want you to be mine again—this time, you’ll live by my rules.” Sa pagbabalik ni Adrian, muling nagising ang mundong pilit tinakasan ni Lia. Hindi ito paghingi ng tawad. Isa itong pagbabalik na may layunin. Handa siyang gamitin ang kapangyarihan, impluwensya, at ang sariling dilim na matagal niyang itinago upang bawiin ang babaeng minsan niyang nawala—at igapos muli ang mundong pinili nitong talikuran. Isang laban kung saan ang pagmamahal ay muling aangkinin, o tuluyang malulunod sa galit at tensyong matagal nang namuo—mga sugat na hindi na kailanman maibabalik.

Two hearts united as one; fusion. "Do you Audrey Dexter, take Ace Zimmer to be your lawfully wedded husband, to love and to hold, in wealth and in penury, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?” “I do." She responded amidst smiles. "Do you Ace Zimmer, take Audrey Dexter to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love and to hold, in wealth and in penury, in sickness and in health, till...” “I do.” He rudely interrupted the priest before flashing an apologetic, unapologetic smile. He was not-so-subtly trying to skip to the end as soon as possible. “I pronounce you man and wife.” The priest smiled, mirroring Audrey’s. “You may...” “We’d rather not do that.” He cut him short once more as he whispered. Audrey’s smile faltered for a split second at his comment. It was then it began to dawn on her that she’d carelessly hopped into a dangerous marriage with the billionaire boss.
