Jaime Taro, the titan behind CJ Media Group, is a self-made CEO with a reputation as cold as the steel towers he built. Once a romantic, Jaime’s capacity for trust was incinerated when he discovered his fiancée, Celine, in the arms of his rival, David. That betrayal transformed him; now, love is a liability he refuses to entertain. ​His ruthless climb hit a snag during the takeover of Overture Media, where he inherited the staggering debts of Leonardo Walters. Seeing no value in the broken man, Jaime claimed his daughter, Millie, as a "personal asset." With mahogany skin and fire-red defiance, Millie is the only person who refuses to tremble in his presence. Forced to work as his live-in maid to settle her father’s debt, she becomes a sharp-tongued irritant in Jaime’s sterile, calculated world. ​However, a high-stakes merger with a conservative conglomerate forces Jaime’s hand. To secure the deal, he must project stability and shed his image as a predatory bachelor. He needs a wife. Millie—who already knows his darkest moods and his morning coffee order—is the only woman who can fake the role convincingly. ​Jaime proposes a cold contract: her freedom in exchange for her performance. Yet, as they navigate public galas and private barbs, the line between theater and reality blurs. Jaime remains haunted by past treachery, convinced every woman has a price, while Millie is determined to prove she isn’t for sale. Eventually, a shared glance suggests a terrifying truth: the only variable Jaime cannot control is his heart.

Because the broken luna possesses a hidden ability that she is unaware of, and the only person who might be able to awaken it is the crippled alpha. Will they ruin one another?
