Immaculate Angelyn Conception, a brilliant and seasoned Filipina archaeologist is tasked with unraveling the mysteries of the Sevilla family's ancestral palace and estates in the Philippines. With her expertise in excavating hidden treasures and deciphering ancient secrets, she's the perfect fit for the job. As she surveys the palace grounds, Immaculate's keen eye catches the whispers of a forgotten era, drawing her in like a moth to flame.
That's when she meets Mark Vincent, the family's enigmatic grandson, who's still licking his wounds from a painful breakup and wants nothing more than to be left alone. As Immaculate works to restore the palace's ancient structures, she stumbles upon clues pointing to a hidden resting place of the family's ancestor, King Marcus. Legend has it that King Marcus, a just and fair ruler, suffered greatly due to a brutal war with a rival kingdom and lost the love of his life, a young lady named Inmaculada.
As Immaculate digs deeper, she realizes that she's not just uncovering the king's history, but also unraveling a centuries-old tale of love, loss, and sacrifice. It turns out that King Marcus, much like Vincent, was begging to be left alone, worn down by the weight of his responsibilities and the pain of losing his beloved.
As she navigates her feelings for Mark Vincent, who's struggling to move on from his past, she begins to see parallels between their lives and the ancient tale of love and loss. Will they find a way to break free from the cycle of heartache, or will history repeat itself?
