After an unfortunate incident 18 years ago, Sadie Trinity is now back in La Cuevas, to forget and move on from the past.

Narnia Melpomene Alvarez—ang tinaguriang "rebelde" na kakambal ni Urania, ayon sa kaniyang tiyuhin na si Luis Grimaldi. Buong buhay niya, iisa lang ang kanyang layunin: ang makamit ang hustisya para sa kanyang mga magulang, anuman ang kapalit. Sa murang edad pa lamang, buo na ang kanyang loob na ipaglaban ito, kahit sariling buhay ang isugal, lalo na para sa natitira niyang pamilya—ang kakambal niyang si Urania. Kaya’t hindi na nakapagtataka nang sumali siya sa isang lihim na grupo na konektado sa underground society. Alam niyang delikado ito, pero iyon ang tanging paraan para maabot ang matagal niyang pinapangarap. Ngunit isang gabi ang nagbago ng lahat—isang gabing ginulo ng hindi inaasahang estranghero. Ang pagtulong niya kay Zuhair Eros Smith ay tila isang maling hakbang na hinding-hindi niya makakalimutan. Bigla na lang napasok si Eros sa buhay niya—isang lalaking misteryoso, mapang-asar, at puno ng mga lihim. Wala sa plano ni Narnia ang pagbukas ng kanyang puso para sa sinuman, lalo pa’t hindi niya lubos kilala ang lalaking tila may koneksyon sa kanyang madilim na nakaraan. Hanggang saan ang kaya niyang isugal para sa pangako niya sa kanyang pamilya? Paano kung ang taong nagbubukas ng pintuan sa pagmamahal ay isa ring susi sa kasinungalingan? At paano kung ang laban para sa hustisya ay makasira sa pag-ibig na unti-unting namumuo? Ngayong nagbabanggaan ang kanyang puso at prinsipyo, kailangan niyang pumili: ipaglaban ang nakaraan o tanggapin ang pagmamahal na dala ng lalaking hindi niya sigurado kung kaibigan o kalaban.

I poured out my heart to him, telling him everything and not leaving a single part out of it. "Please, Don Xander, I will be grateful if you could grant me just this one wish" I begged desperately, my voice cracking at the end, even though I tried so hard to stay strong. He tilted his head to one side and smirked. "I can do that for you" he said, and my eyes beam with happiness immediately. "But..." He trailed off, swirling his drink in his hand. "What do I get in return for helping you? After all, it's all about give and take" My jaw dropped instantly. His playboy attitude playing in my head. "I... I can't... I mean, I'm sorry Don Xander but I'm not the type of girl who sleeps around with men. If it's okay with you, I can work for you instead" I suggested. He wave his index finger, shaking his head. "No, Bella" he said in a low, husky voice. Then, he rose from his seat and walked towards to me, his movement graceful and deliberate. I shivered, still seated as he crouched beside me. He leaned closer to my face and I tilted my head to look at him in the eyes. "If I will help you..." he whispered, his warm breath sending shivers down my spine. "You must give me something in return" "What do you want?" I asked in a low voice. His eyes gleamed with intensity. "I want you, Isabella" he whispered, his lips grazing my ear. I jerked back, shocked by his request. "Don Xander!" I exclaimed, my voice trembling.
