Izaria Mauve is a sheltered woman and an only daughter of Asuncion family. She is the last heiress so she has to meet her clans expectations. Lumaki siya sa puder ng kanyang lolo na namamalagi sa Japan upang ilayo siya sa mga mata ng mga tao hanggat hindi pa dumadating ang tamang panahon upang siya naman ang mamahala sa malaki nilang kompanya. Bata pa lang kasi ay sakitin na ito. Everyone thought she was kept in a private hospital where no one is allowed to visit. But her grandfather raised her to be a warrior rather than a weak and clueless princess. She spent most of her time in a temple where she learned different types of martial arts and weapons, she was also taught everything about business. Ang inakala nilang musmos at mahina na dalaga ay hindi pala totoong mahina. Pero hindi roon magtatapos ang lahat dahil mababago ang kapalaran ni Izaria nang ipahayag ng kanyang lolo na kinakailangan niyang pakasalan ang isang makapangyarihang tao sa lipunan na nasa Pilipinas upang isalba ang kompanya nilang nasa bingit na ng pagbagsak. Izaria had a second thought but she was convinced to accept it after his grandfather died and was told that that is his last will. Anong klaseng buhay kaya ang naghihintay kay Izaria sa Pilipinas? Maging matagumpay kaya ang mga plano niya upang mabawi ang kompanya nila? Paano kung hindi lang ang pakikipagsapalaran na magpakasal sa taong hindi niya kilala ang problemang dumating sa buhay niya? Paano kung may matuklasan siya na hindi niya dapat malaman?

I thought the divorce would set me free. I thought walking away from my husband would finally give me peace. But I didn’t expect him—my cold, sinfully dangerous stepbrother—to be the one waiting on the other side of my freedom. Rage Roswell doesn’t ask. He takes. And the moment he found out I was no longer married, that I was vulnerable, alone, easy to steal… he stepped in like a storm I couldn’t escape. He pinned me with those cold eyes and said one thing: “You’re mine now.” I should’ve run. I should’ve fought the tension, the heat, the hunger he ignites with just a stare. But he knows every weakness I try to hide. Every tremble. Every breath. Every part of me I shouldn’t be giving him. After the divorce, I thought I was reclaiming my life. Instead, I walked straight into the hands of the man who’s willing to burn everything—everyone—just to claim me. And this time… He won’t let me go.

On our third anniversary, the restaurant my wife, Selena Sander, and I frequent is reserved by her twisted first love, Shane Johnson. He tramples over the rose petals that are scattered all over the floor while making his way toward our table. Then, he slaps a pregnancy report onto the table. "Three years ago, I personally tattooed a rose on Selena's abdomen. I even made a vow with her, saying that she cannot give birth to your child until I find someone I love more than her." As Shane points at the name shown on the pregnancy report, he flashes me a cruel smile. "Now, I've found my true love. That's why I came to inform Selena that our vow can now be broken." The bitterness that I tasted from the countless contraceptives that I've taken over the past three years suddenly floods my mouth. I then turn to look at Selena. There's no trace of guilt shown on her expression despite having gotten exposed by Shane. Instead, she just looks at me coldly. "You heard him, right?" she utters. "We can have a child together now." At that moment, I feel like strangling her more than anything else in the world.
