Katarina Valeria Castanier, known worldwide as Rina, is an international runway model whose body is worth millions and whose voice is rarely asked for. She belongs to fashion capitals like Paris, Milan, New York, moving where she is told, smiling when commanded. Contracts dictate her life, and obedience keeps her untouchable. Sa mundong pinapatakbo ng pera at reputasyon, she has learned that survival means never resisting the hands that own the rules.
Her invitation to endorse a notorious car racing brand is presented as prestige, not a choice. The track is loud, dangerous, and unfamiliar yet what unsettles her is not the speed, but the man waiting there. She recognizes him instantly. The one she once met and never understood. Hindi niya alam kung kailan siya napansin, pero malinaw sa paraan ng tingin niya. This was not coincidence. He doesn't approach. He doesn't ask. He only watches, like something already decided.
Rina understands the truth too late. The invitation was not exposure. It was a declaration. Without consent or warning, she is marked in ways deeper than possession, quieter than captivity. Sa mundong sanay siyang kontrolado, she is claimed by a will stronger than contracts and more deliberate than obsession. And once marked, she learns the cruelest rule of all. Some men don't chase. They choose. And they never let go.
