When struggling artist Elira Virel signs a secret marriage contract with billionaire CEO Kael Thorne, it’s supposed to be simple: no love, no expectations, no real commitment. Just six months of pretending to be his wife in exchange for saving her father’s collapsing company. But things stop being simple the moment she steps into his world — a world of power, cold stares, unspoken pain, and rules she’s not allowed to break. Kael is mysterious, guarded, and dangerously unreadable. Elira knows she’s just a pawn in his bigger game… but why does he look at her like she’s the only truth he wants to believe in? As secrets from his past begin to resurface — including the return of a woman who claims to be his former fiancée — Elira finds herself tangled in a web of lies, revenge, and emotions she swore she wouldn’t feel. She was never meant to fall for him. But in a world of lies, love was never part of the plan… Until it was.

Di tengah tatapan terkejutnya, aku diam-diam menyembunyikan hasil pemeriksaanku. Di hari gadis itu melahirkan, aku meninggalkan surat perceraian… dan pergi dari hidupnya untuk selamanya.

“I’ll pay you as much as you want, layuan mo lang ang pamangkin ko," alok ni Ibrahim sa babaeng kinababaliwan ng pamangkin niyang si Khaleb. Halos hindi naman makagalaw si Loraine sa narinig. Hindi niya maintindihan kung paano mag-re-react sa sinabing iyon ng Uncle ni Khaleb. At napagkamalan pa yata siyang girlfriend nito. “Huh! Nakakatawa ha. Hindi magandang paratang.” Sa inis niya, nahawakan niya ang booklet na nasa ibabaw ng side table at saka ibinato rito. “Gago ka! Anong palagay mo sa akin sugar mommy? Ang kapal ng mukha mo!” “Hey! Stop! Stop! Stop!” Nagawa ni Ibrahim na umiwas, saka hinagilap ang bewang at braso nito. Hindi inaasahang nagdikit ang kanilang mukha. Her eyes met his, and it feels like searching him deeply in his bones. Aminado siyang nakuryente siya sa init ng hininga nito na amoy coffee latte. It makes his manhood alive, lalo na nang masalat niya ang mala-artistic na kurba ng bewang nito. Same as Loraine, kakaibang kilig ang hatid ng maaamo at mapupunagy nitong mga mata. Ang ilong nitong parang goddess ang hugis maging ang mga labing mapupula at magandang korte. Parang magnet na humuhila patungo sa kanyang mga labi. “Is this how you seduce my nephew. Because if it is, you’re doing a great job,” bulong ni Ibrahim. Hindi mawari ni Loraine kung papuri ba iyon o insulto. Mas pinili niya ang pangalawang statement ng kanyang isipan kaya buong lakas niya itong itinulak. Walong taon na ang lumipas nang muling magtagpo ang landas nina Ibrahim at Loraine. Wala silang kaalam-alam na minsan na nilang nakatagpo ang isat-isa sa isang malagim na pangyayari. No print, no clues, only fate will let them know who they really are and what would they be in the future.
