Elysia Ravenne Devereaux lost everyone she loved in the same year. Afraid to love again, she chose to hide in silence.
But reality caught up to her. Ngayong wala na ang kaniyang mga magulang at lolo't lola, siya na lamang ang natitirang tagapagmana ng Reaux Empire.
Her aunt-na hindi man lang niya tunay na kadugo-will do everything to steal it away. And since Elysia doesn't know how to lead the Reaux Empire alone, she has no choice but to turn to the one man she swore she'd never need... ang lalaking matagal nang nagpapainit ng ulo niya.
And in the end, with all pride swallowed and desperation laid bare, she utters the words that will change everything:
"Theodore Cael Valerius... marry me."
At first, it was just a deal. But as time passed, natakot siya-because their marriage started to feel real. She was scared to admit to herself that she's falling for him... because every time she dares to love, the people she holds close always end up being taken away.
