17 parts Complete MatureHeartfelt Series #1
In the tumultuous world that engulfs Kaia Alexandra, battles of status, class, and societal expectations wage an unrelenting war. Each passing day becomes a grueling struggle, as she, the legitimate child, feels the weight of her father's towering expectations pressing down upon her. Though her heart yearns for a different path, she finds herself compelled to follow in his footsteps, suppressing her true desires in the process. Amidst the glimmering facade of opulence, what she truly craves is the serenity of a tranquil existence.
Desperate to break free from the suffocating confines of her predetermined role as a daughter, Kaia takes a daring leap and embarks on a journey to a distant land, seeking solace and liberation from her stifling responsibilities. It is here, in the embrace of the unknown, that her fate becomes intertwined with that of Raizen, a man whose life has been forged in the fires of adversity far surpassing her own. Burdened with his own obligations, he carries the weight of his heart's convictions with unwavering strength.
Raizen stands as a stark contrast to Kaia, a living embodiment of the antithesis to her world. Despite her staunch aversion to love, she finds herself ensnared, her heart entangled in the intricate web of true affection. As the stakes rise higher, Kaia realizes that she has become an unwitting participant in a high-stakes gamble for her very soul. The course of her life takes an unforeseen turn, shattering her assumptions and challenging her belief in an eventual improvement of her circumstances.
