When a ruthless corporate war stripped Isabella of everything she held dear, she was forced into a loveless contract marriage with the Alpha she despised most—all to save her father. The cold, unyielding bond became her prison, suffocating her as bitterness and resentment festered. Just when she thought her life would be an endless cycle of pain, her former lover, James, returned to rescue her.  

But salvation came at a deadly price. Betrayed and lured into a fiery death by the man she once loved, it was her despised husband who risked it all, diving into the flames to save her. In her final moments, the lines between truth and lies blurred. Was her savior the one she hated or the one she trusted?  

Before the fire consumed her, Isabella made a desperate plea to the Moon Goddess: Give me one more chance... let me rewrite my fate!

When she opened her eyes, the impossible had happened—time had turned back to one year before！

Contracted to the Alpha

I lifted my head from the files I’d been going over to see a man standing over me, watching me curiously. 


He looked only slightly older than me, with dark hair combed back neatly from his strikingly handsome features. He was dressed in a dark grey suit and held a briefcase in one hand while the other rested easily in his pocket. Despite the easy charm and sophistication he exuded, his silver-grey eyes had a hard, calculating look as he watched me. 


I’d never seen him before, and he was standing much too close to me for a stranger. 


I stiffened in my seat, instantly on guard. “Yes?”


The easy smile he wore stretched wider as he pulled his hand from his pocket and extended it in greeting. “Sebastian Crane.”


My eyes widened in surprise. This was Mr. Crane? The project’s representative? As the questions swirled in my head, I realized I was still sitting and was waiting with my hand extended.
