Selene has a three-year contract marriage with Bastian, the werewolf leader. After getting pregnant, she eagerly wants to tell him, but a misunderstanding leads Bastian to reject and hurt her. Heartbroken, Selene hides her pregnancy and leaves alone. Three years later, she returns with her daughter Lila. Bastian gradually suspects Lila is his biological daughter, regrets his past decision, and tries to win them back. But Arabella, who covets Bastian, schemes repeatedly to frame Selene—even forging a paternity test and threatening her with her daughter—to tear the mother and child apart and bury the truth. Meanwhile, Drake offers Selene new protection and support. Facing belated affection, past wounds, and endless conspiracies, Selene is no longer the passive woman she once was: she learns to take control of her fate, firmly protect her daughter, and reexamine her feelings for Bastian.
