"Lalu kamu mau sampai kapan hidup seperti ini? Dikeluarkan dari kampus, dipanggil polisi karena tawuran, dilaporkan karena menabrak kendaraan dalam kondisi mabuk?" "Oma ... aku masih muda. Aku masih pengin hidup bebas, jalanin hidupku sendiri!" Regita merengek. Suaranya mulai pecah, tubuhnya gemetar menahan gejolak dalam dada. Menikah bukan keinginannya. Pernikahan orangtuanya yang berantakan, menyisakan trauma untuk Regita. "Cukup!" potong Oma dingin. "Semuanya sudah Oma bicarakan pada keluarga calon suamimu. Lamaran akan dilakukan hari Sabtu ini dan menikah secepatnya di Minggu depan." "Omaaaa—!" Regita menjerit frustasi, melempar bantal sofa ke lantai. Regita terdiam dalam tangis yang tertahan. Sekuat apa pun ia ingin melawan, ia tahu hidupnya masih bergantung pada sang Oma. Rumah tinggal, biaya hidup, bahkan nama keluarganya. "Kalau kamu tetap menolak." Suara Oma kembali terdengar, pelan tapi menusuk. "Mulai besok, kamu silakan cari tempat tinggal sendiri. Uang sakumu, makan, fasilitas, dan semua yang kamu gunakan, akan Oma cabut." Regita terdiam. Sang Oma sedang tidak main-main. "Bereskan dirimu. Jangan buat hal memalukan lebih besar lagi. Berhenti main-main dan kamu harus berubah!" Menikah? Satu hal yang tidak pernah masuk ke dalam harapan Regita, tapi justru akan menjadi kenyataan yang tidak bisa ia hindarkan.

Twenty-four hours. Half a million dollars. Or his mother dies. Omega Caelen Ryn is out of options: his mother is dying, treatment costs half a million dollars, and loan sharks are closing in with brass knuckles and threats. Then a lawyer appears with an offer from Alpha billionaire CEO Aldric Fenmore: marry him for two years, every debt disappears, and his mother will be saved. The rules are brutal: separate bedrooms, zero feelings, don't fall in love. Their marriage is a transaction. Nothing more. Their first kiss is for the cameras. In public, they play devoted spouses. Behind closed doors, they're strangers. Until Monaco. When Aldric's race car spins out at 200 mph, Caelen realizes the truth-he's fallen in love with his husband. And when Aldric kisses him after his victory, raw and desperate and real, the contract between them shatters completely. They broke every rule. They fell impossibly in love. Aldric's ex returns, the man who destroyed his ability to trust, bringing a ruthless business rival and a plan for revenge. What starts as sabotage escalates into kidnapping, violence, and a premature labor that leaves both their lives hanging by a thread. In the trauma room, as Caelen bleeds out, the doctor delivers words that break Aldric completely: "You have to choose. We can only save one." The husband he loves. Or the child they never planned for. In that impossible moment, every vow they made, every sacrifice they offered, and every fragile dream they built together came down to a single, devastating choice. A contract that was supposed to end. A love that refused to.
