After finding out she had at most five years left to live, Shikera Anderson could only live life in a carefree and unhindered manner, in order to numb the fear and sadness in her heart. However, her heart shattered when she was forced waste a year stuck in an marriage contract with a masked man, in exchange for her father's life.  

"The main clause of the contract: Don't touch my daughter!"

Ethan DeLoach, the most wanted personality by all the press stations in the country, hated reporters with passion until one came into his life in form of a contract wife. He was able to keep her at bay until her despicable lips turned out to be the cure for his terrifying nightmares. 

As they experiment with their lips every night before sleeping, how long would it take them to succumb to the throngs of passion while throwing all caution to the wind?

Will Shikera be able to dissolve the hatred Ethan has for reporters, with her plain and carefree attitude? How will Ethan react when he finds out what the repercussion was for breaking the contract? And finally, would the love between them defy Shikera's short life span?

"Ethan, why the fuck did you not tell me I had hickeys on my neck?!" Shikera yelled. "I practically announced to the whole nation that I had a passionate night!"
"That's not my fault though. You could have lied they were birthmarks." 
"And when the marks fade, another lie?" she asked irritatingly.
He smirked mischievously at her words, before leaning over to whisper into her ear, "No worries, I will renew them every night."

Chris frowned, "You don't have to do anything, Ethan. Kylian will be here soon."

"I just asked you to drop that phone!"

Chris flinched at that yell. He could count how many times Ethan yelled since he was young, as he would always keep the anger bottled up while talking coldly instead.

"Drop it," Ethan repeated, and this time giving Chris no choice as he took slow steps closer to him.

Chris had no choice but to drop the phone, his head tilted in confusion at Ethan's behavior.

"I dropped the phone, Ethan. You should keep calm now," he whispered.

"I am calm...she loves me," Ethan smiled.

"What?!" Chris asked disbelievingly. Weren't they just talking about Shikera and what he told her now? How did that have any connection to love? And who was the 'she' anyway?
