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

“Are you…insane! We’re on the…fifth floor!” I yelled between coughs as Ethan pulled to a stop in front of the open window. A steady breeze kicked up through the opening, and a loud crash brought a part of the ceiling down into the sea of flames.


“I know,” he responded calmly as he lifted me clear off my feet, cradling me into his side with one arm and the other pulling us up onto the windowsill.


“Ethan…” I clutched tightly to him with my good arm.


“Trust me this once,” his guttural growl blew blistering heat across the side of my face as he pressed his lips to my ear. “Even if it’s just for tonight.”
