Tiga pangeran ACS yang paling terkenal yaitu Zavier, Aryan & Leo. Mereka dijuluki young, handsome and rich yang tidak akur, mereka seperti kutub yang saling berlawanan. Zavier, seorang troublemaker dan pem-bully & Aryan dijuluki sebagai manusia separuh malaikat. Hubungan mereka canggung karena konflik dan tragedi internal keluarga, tapi dituntut akur karena keduanya adalah wajah & masa depan Albert Group. Leo juga diharapkan bersatu dengan kedua pewaris Albert Group itu. Tapi Leo hidup bagaikan angin, ada antara tiada, menghindari semua orang, termasuk Zavier & Aryan. Satu-satunya yang bisa mendekatinya hanya Jihan, favorite kembarannya, Lea. Jika bukan karena Lea, Jihan bahkan tidak memiliki kesempatan untuk bicara dengan pria dingin itu. Zavier terus menjadi pemberontak yang tidak tertolong, bertindak semena-mena dan sembrono. Aryan selalu mencoba menutupi kesalahan sang sepupu, tapi kesalahan Zavier terlalu kentara untuk ditutupi.

Medeena Albert juga kewalahan menghadapi mereka. Satu-satunya solusi adalah membawa Lea kembali ke Indonesia karena mampu menundukkan ketiga manusia arogan itu. Tapi, tidak mudah membawa Lea pulang karena dia adalah the real troublemaker yang tidak pernah kembali sejak 10 tahun lalu. Lea mencintai kebebasan, tidak suka terikat apapun, tidak menganut agama, tidak memilih kewarganegaraan, dan bergonta-ganti pacar, meski telah dijodohkan dengan Zavier sejak kecil. Lea menjadi salah satu alasan yang membuat Zavier terus meluapkan emosi dan melampiaskan kemarahannya.

Meski Lea menyadari hati yang hancur itu hampir tidak bisa bertahan, tapi jiwa kekanak-kanakannya masih acuh tak acuh, dipenuhi ego dan ambisi liar, sehingga tidak memilih cinta dan mengabaikan impian untuk merangkul yang tercinta, meski sekali saja. Meski cinta telah memecah-belah hatinya hingga serpihannya tidak lagi memiliki bentuk, tapi Zavier diam-diam masih berharap bahwa suatu hari dapat memeluk wanita itu dengan bahagia. Dia mencoba meyakinkan diri bahwa Lea tidak memiliki pilihan lain, selain menikah dengannya.

"I know where your little sister is. She's still alive." The blue-eyed man casually said. Hearing this, Sorn felt his anger rise, clenching his fists to restrain himself from hitting the man, who seemed relentless in maintaining his annoying smile. "What are you trying to get from me, to admit something unbelievable? Selena is dead! I witnessed her death with my own eyes!" ... Hoping to believe the man's words, even though they sounded like nonsense, something that tugged on his vulnerability, Sorn agreed to join the nameless independent survival group led by a strange man. Ralf, a mysterious man immune to the zombie virus, someone with unique abilities that sometimes made Sorn think he was not human. The more he interacted with the man, the more confusing things became for Sorn. He was reluctant to admit that being friends with him wasn't entirely unpleasant. Eventually, when Ralf revealed his past, Sorn became more convinced that meeting his sister was a goal worth pursuing. Even so, he couldn't truly believe that his sister was still alive, as Ralf claimed. The memory of watching her get eaten by a horde of zombies was still fresh in his mind. "I promise I'll bring your sister back. Before your birthday next year comes, you'll see her right in front of you. Will you trust me?" Sorn's chest felt warm and oddly fluttery, he simply nodded, trusting the man in silence—though it was very difficult to say so verbally.

I can't explain why or how this cycle repeats for me. Yet, what I do understand is each time I die, I return to the starting point, a zombie apocalypse, and continue my journey anew. In my first apocalypse, I overlooked the creeping signs of doom until overrun by zombies in my flat, where I perished in sheer terror. The second attempt to alert others of the impending chaos fell on deaf ears; labelled a lunatic, I fled the city, only to succumb to starvation and exposure alone in the wild. By the third go, I sought safety in wealth, collecting vast supplies, yet fell victim to a brutal gang. Now, understanding the key—precise foresight, survival skills, strict secrecy, and solitude—I see the purpose in reliving this collapse. This time, failure is not an option. This time, I will survive and outlive the apocalypse.
