Influenced heavily by his malevolent parents, Elowen and Alaric, Caelan's life spirals into chaos, leaving a trail of broken families and shattered lives. His brother Thorne, initially innocent and untainted by their parents' influence, finds his own family embroiled in the toxic web spun by Caelan and their parents. Thorne's wife, Cressida, and their son, Kael, struggle to maintain their sanity and integrity amidst the turmoil. Gideon Mercer, Cressida's father and a highly respected lawyer, becomes a beacon of hope and strength, tirelessly working to protect his daughter's family from the relentless manipulations of Elowen and Alaric. As Caelan's first wife, Seraphina, flees with their daughter Aveline, and his second wife, Liora, escapes his clutches, his third wife, Elysande, fights back, exposing the truth and bringing Caelan and his parents to justice. With the aid of Gideon and Thorne, Elysande emerges as a survivor and an advocate for others facing domestic abuse. Years later, Aveline grows into a resilient social worker, Lyra thrives as an artist, and Kael dedicates himself to environmental conservation.

Holden Samuels is a professional boxer - a four-time champion. Everybody sees Holden as the typical bad boy; possessive, domineering, and self-absorbed. They're wrong.
