Leila Mercado is a funny, sweet, innocent and lovely lady home baker who just wanted to be independent. On her eighteenth birthday, her wish was granted to live independently in a house she inherited from her grandmother. She baked chocolate chip cookies for her new neighbors, most especially for the owner of the mansion beside her small bungalow house – Hunter Black. But she was offended when he just gave her baked cookies to his gardener without even saying a simple thank you to her! She was so mad and determined to know who that cold, snob and mysterious neighbor was! But her stubborn heart was mesmerized by Hunter – that it kept beating like crazy whenever he’s around. A big ‘no’ for her! One day, her stepfather tried to violate her, but a huge wolf appeared to rescue her! She tried to follow the wolf – thinking that it was a hybrid enormous wolf and found out that it went to the Mansion’s backyard. Did Hunter own the wolf? She wanted one, too!

She was oblivious to the things around her as she stared at the small bungalow house she inherited from her loving grandparents from his father’s side, Emilio and Josefa Mercado. Her mind was clouded with flashing memories she had with her loving late grandmother, who would run towards where she was the moment she had stepped out of their car, while her late grandfather would just smile – while watching them.
