She only wants Max. He's her childhood crush and turned first love when they grew up. But how can she make him love her if he has someone else already? A girlfriend he loves. But that doesn’t matter, for she’s willing to do everything to have him. Maximus D’Arco. One of the EcoSource princes. He’s almost the perfect son and has a princely personality. Except that he had a secret girlfriend hidden from everyone. When Aurora found out, everything turned upside down. The woman even blackmailed him to marry her or his girlfriend would suffer. She wanted him to love her. Why would he fall for someone who doesn’t even care what he wants, let alone about his feelings? Only his girlfriend does.

But amidst the pain, she began to see him-a man whose name she had never heard, yet felt like she had always known. In her dreams, he stood by the edge of a moonlit sea, his eyes deep enough to hold a thousand stories. She didn't know why she saw him, why his presence felt like a whisper from another life.

And if fate has truly brought them together, then why does the universe seem so determined to keep them apart?

"Some stories don't end with love. Some hearts never heal. And some obsessions are deadly." She loved him for 12 years. For 12 years, he never looked back. Ayla Wilson's world revolved around one man-Silas Williams.A love unspoken, a devotion unseen. She was the girl who watched from the shadows, the girl who never dared to step too close.

The walls closed in, suffocating, unbreakable. Then came the escape. A wedding gown stained with rain and desperation. Footsteps pounding against the pavement. And a destination she should have never chosen. Silas Williams! But Silas was no longer the distant boy she once admired. He was untouchable. Ruthless. A man with a heart colder than she could ever imagine. A wife by law, yet a ghost in his world. A marriage that existed only in ink, hidden behind their home. A dangerous love. She told herself she could survive this. That she could live in his shadow without demanding more. Then everything changed. A loss so cruel it shattered everything.

Amy, a typical New Yorker, has a life like a tightly - wound clock because of her busy job at the United Nations - precise yet exhausting. She is a person who is rational to the core.

On that day, the heavy pressure of work made Amy feel breathless. She returned to her apartment where she lived alone, like a robot with its battery drained. Her only thought was to throw herself onto the bed and isolate herself from the whole world with the quilt. However, midnight, like a mysterious incantation, disrupted her plan. The old radio in the room cabinet made a strange beeping sound, and then a faint cry for help came: "Help... " Amy's heart suddenly tightened. Despite the mixture of fatigue and fear within her, her curiosity still made her ask the radio, "Who are you?" "I'm Tom. I'm being chased by a serial killer. I'm hiding in an abandoned warehouse. He'll find me soon... " The boy's voice was full of fear. Without the slightest hesitation, Amy immediately called the police. A rescue across time, of love and redemption, thus began.

Well, if someone told me reincarnation was real, I would laugh in their face. I would have said, Reincarnation are all dreams of losers, me included, who are not content with their life and want to escape reality. Many people would be happy to travel back in time, but I wasn't. Why reincarnate in this world of suffering when you are already dead? I've read a lot of novels about people reincarnating and being extremely happy, saying "Since I'm back from the future, I'm determined to make a difference in this world". That's some funny stuff they always say. But if they really came from the future, they would know there's no use trying to change the world because it will be the same as before! Let me tell you something: reality is different from fantasy. What people fail to realize is that, when you reincarnate into the past it will be difficult to make a difference in this world. If you are not extremely lucky, what you can achieve is changing your life course from before reincarnation. Let me give you an example if you still don't get it Let's say an average person who struggles every day to get something to eat and doesn't involve himself in the world too much. For example, reading the news, checking forex, and trading. How can a person like this make a difference at the world level? Their only responsibility is not to repeat the same mistakes they made before reincarnation. Ace Raynott, who reincarnated into the past by chance, faces questions about how he can change things when he knows nothing about this world except that he has to survive...
