Sofia is the ghost his family still worships, the future he never stopped craving. When the board demands a "settled" image, Jonah chooses Elara not with devotion, but with convenience.

Even when an unexpected pregnancy gives them a daughter, Isla, Elara remains the wife who was never truly chosen. When Sofia returns and Jonah's attention begins to slip, first from Elara, then from Isla, Elara makes a decision that shatters the perfect façade: she leaves. But divorce doesn't erase Jonah's past. It exposes it, and forces Jonah to face the damage he allowed, the family that enabled it, and the woman who learned to live without him. A devastating, angst-filled story of second choice love, quiet cruelty, and a father fighting to repair the bond he nearly destroyed, after it's too late to save the marriage.

The Holy Saintess was loved by the entire empire. At least, that was what everyone believed. Praised as a living miracle, she spent her life healing the sick, suppressing demons, and protecting the kingdom. Temples sang of her kindness. Nobles admired her grace. Commoners prayed for her blessings. Yet no one ever asked what she wanted. An orphan raised by the temple, the Saintess never longed for crowns, glory, or romance. What she desired was painfully simple: a family that would love her not for her power, but for herself. Then a notorious noble lady suddenly changed. The young woman destined to become a villainess abandoned her cruel behavior and gradually won the affection of everyone around her. Her parents cherished her. Her brothers adored her. Even fate itself seemed determined to grant her happiness. Watching from afar, the Saintess felt no hatred. Only longing. For years she fulfilled her duties while quietly carrying an empty heart. Forced into a political marriage with the Second Prince, trapped by endless rumors, and burdened by responsibilities no one else could shoulder, she continued smiling for the sake of others. Until the day she sacrificed everything to create the strongest protective barrier in history. The empire mourned its beloved Saintess. No one knew she had entered the ritual already prepared to die. With her final breath, she offered a single prayer. "If I have truly fulfilled my duty... then in my next life, please let me be ordinary. Give me a loving family." But death reveals truths hidden even from the Saintess herself. As secrets behind the original story emerge and a darkness takes over the body she left behind, the Saintess is granted a second chance-not as a chosen savior, but as the beloved daughter of a marquis family. For the first time in two lifetimes, she will learn what it means to be loved. And for the first time, someone will choose her-not because she is a Saintess, but because she is simply herself.
