Akala nila sapat na ang panahon para ibaon ang nakaraan. Pero may mga katotohanang hindi namamatay — naghihintay lang ng tamang oras para bumalik. Para makabuo ng bagong legacy, nagdesisyon si **Arden Velasquez** na ipasa ang buong empire sa panganay niyang anak.

Mi hermana y yo fuimos transportadas por accidente a las tribus de hombres bestia, y el Dios Bestia nos dio a elegir nuestra identidad. La primera opción es convertirnos en Guerrera Bestia, con fuerza poderosa y figura robusta. La segunda opción es convertirnos en Doncella Sagrada, con capacidad de reproducción entre especies y figura esbelta y sensual. En mi vida anterior, mi hermana eligió la primera opción para sobrevivir, y yo me convertí en la débil y deseable Doncella Sagrada. Pero a ella, por no ser lo suficientemente delicada, los machos de la tribu la despreciaron. Por eso, solo le asignaron tres machos discapacitados. A mí, en cambio, por mi figura grácil, los tres hombres bestia más fuertes y apuestos me volvieron su consentida. Luego ellos se convirtieron en los reyes de la selva virgen, y yo en Doncella Sagrada, llena de gloria. Mi hermana, muerta de envidia, aprovechó un descuido para empujarme a un pantano venenoso. Con mi último aliento, le clavé un aguijón venenoso y morimos juntas. Al abrir los ojos otra vez, volvimos al momento de elegir ante el Dios Bestia. Esta vez, mi hermana se apresuró a escoger ser la Doncella Sagrada. —Mariana, esta vez la Doncella Sagrada seré yo. Por lástima, te regalo a esos tres machos inútiles y discapacitados. Contengo mi inmensa alegría. ¿Qué tiene de bueno ser encerrada como herramienta de reproducción? Hay que saberlo: en una sociedad primitiva, el que manda es el más fuerte.

I thought my marriage was the end of me. Charles Donovan had it all: money, power, control and me, locked in his golden cage. On paper, I was the perfect wife. Behind closed doors, I was nothing but his property. One wild night, I broke. I slipped away into the city lights, into a stranger’s arms. He tasted like danger, kissed like sin, and made me feel alive again. I told myself it was one night. A mistake. But mistakes have consequences. Because that stranger Nathaniel Carter is the man my husband fears most. His enemy. His enemy. The billionaire vowed to destroy him. Now Nathaniel wants me again. Not just my body, but my dedication, my heart. And God help me… every touch, every stolen kiss pulls me deeper into the fire. But in a world built on deception, can I trust the man who wants payback against my husband? Or am I just another tool in his war? One thing is certain. The night I submitted to him wasn’t the end. It was the beginning. And the secret we share could burn us all.
