Jayden Edric Francisco and Selene Laurell Gutierrez never thought they'd fall for each other. Their journey from enemies to lovers was filled with heated arguments, stolen glances, and moments of undeniable chemistry that only grew stronger through the years. But as they entered their fourth year of college, just as their love was becoming their anchor amidst the pressures of adulthood, a devastating twist shattered everything they had. Jayden, bound by his family's expectations, was forced into an arranged marriage with Natasha Rivera, an alliance critical to securing his family's business. With no choice but to end things with Selene, he left her, taking with him the promises they had made. Yet, even as he walked away, his heart was never truly freed from her grip, leaving behind pieces of himself he thought he'd never reclaim.
Years pass, and life has led them on very different paths-both successful, both changed, yet both haunted by memories of what they once had. When Jayden and Selene meet again, the pain of their unfinished love resurfaces, stronger and more complicated than ever. The years have aged them, but not their love that never truly ended. The distance, the years, and the scars seemed to melt away as Jayden stood before her, longing and regret in his eyes. Looking at her, he whispered, "It was always you, my Selene. It's always been you. I let you go for them, for something that was never worth losing you." Yet as he speaks, he senses there's something Selene is still keeping from him, something she's hidden all this time-a truth that could change everything they thought they knew.
