For decades, the name Maria Elena de la Puente has lingered like a curse. She was known as the most beautiful lady of the Spanish era, admired by many, yet devoted to only one man. But her family had other plans. Elena was arranged to marry the eldest son of the Governor-General, a respected and feared General whose name has long been erased from history.
But the wedding never happened. Elena disappeared on the day she was supposed to walk down the aisle. Elena was never seen again in San Lázaro, and her name became a symbol of curse, misfortune, and a disgrace said to have brought ruin and death upon her family.
Until Virginia Isabel Mendoza enters an abandoned ancestral house filled with unsettling old photographs and a haunting portrait of Elena. Hidden within its walls is a room no one dares to enter, and a door only Isabel can see. A strange old woman warns her to leave, claiming the door leads to the past and that Isabel was chosen to change the dark fate of the de la Puente family.
Isabel doesn't believe a word of it.
But the moment she opens the door, the world she knows disappears. She wakes up in 1889, living as Maria Elena de la Puente, at a time when the wedding has not yet been arranged, and before history turned Elena into a curse.
Isabel must uncover the truth behind Elena's past, face the secrets that tore a family apart, and find out why she was chosen before history repeats itself.

Sage Altamira-beautiful, brilliant, and unapologetically bold-is the queen of her world. She's a master of words, a top student, and every inch the girl who seems to have it all. But behind her playful smile lies a heart that's always been a little too guarded. Then came Troy Sevilla-silent, intense, and the kind of smart that makes people listen when he finally speaks. He was supposed to be just another competitor in the classroom, not the boy who would challenge her heart. They met in high school, burned slow through friendship and tension, until love bloomed in stolen glances and secret messages. But love built on unsaid truths is fragile-and when exes, pride, and betrayal step in, Sage and Troy fall apart in ways they never expected. Now in college, they're older-but are they wiser? As Sage tries to move forward, new people enter her life, old wounds reopen, and a game of revenge spins out of control.

This is a story of choices, consequences, and the kind of love that breaks you before it saves you.
That's What They Told Me
Lumi-as someone who's being told what to believe and hope in everything as she grows up-reckons that living is a way to comply with and entrust one's entire life to serving superiors on top of the hierarchy. Who will not think of that way anyway? Being harbored in the lands of Castellanos, it is engraved in her mind that she lives to pay her debt of gratitude to the family who sheltered her, who protected her from all the cruelties the outside world has to offer behind those fences. What they're doing is to protect her life and welfare-that's what they told her. So there's no other way to live but be the gullible and obedient yokel of the Castellano clan, because they're doing everything just for her safety. But that's before her life turns upside-down as she discovers a strange note from the attic. "To whoever finds this message, they erased us. This is all that remains. Remember us, please." What does the note want to convey? Is it just one of those mundane trivial stuff found in an attic like the usual when someone decides to clean it? Or is it something connected to her... "safety?" For sure it is for her safety. That's what they always tell her. But what one hears is not always the version of reality. Most of the time, it is the most convenient scheme to twist and bend the truth. That... That's what they will never tell her. --- Start: July 01, 2020 End: December 02, 2020Complete
