Sa gitna ng karangyaan ng Blue Ocean Cruise Ship, isang banggaan ng galit at kapalaran ang magpapasimula ng pagbabago sa buhay nina Cherry at Jal. Si Cherry, isang matapang at determinadong crew member na may fiancée na nangangalang David, ay umuusok sa galit matapos ang magulong araw sa trabaho. Sa isang aksidenteng pagkikita, napagkamalan niyang gigolo ang isang gwapong lalaki na tila walang pakialam sa mundo—si Jal. Ngunit ang hindi niya alam, ang lalaking kanyang sinigawan at tinawag na bastos ay ang mismong kapitan, CEO, at bilyonaryong nagmamay-ari ng barkong kanyang pinagtatrabahuhan. Ngunit sa ilalim ng liwanag ng buwan at sa kislap ng dagat, naganap ang isang gabing hindi nila inaasahan—isang mainit at mapusok na one-night stand na nag-iwan ng masakit na katotohanan: si Cherry ay nagdadalang-tao ng triplets. Habang patuloy na iniwasan ni Cherry si Jal, ang galit niya rito ay nagiging masalimuot na damdaming hindi niya maunawaan. Ang kanyang puso ay tila nagkakaroon ng sariling isip tuwing nakikita si Jal, kahit pa alam niyang may malaking sagabal sa kanilang dalawa—ang kanyang matagal nang fiancé na si David, na naghahanda na para sa kanilang kasal sa susunod na taon. Sa bawat araw na lumilipas, lalo siyang nahuhulog sa kakaibang ganda at pagkatao ni Cherry—isang damdaming hindi niya inasahan at pilit niyang nilalabanan. Ngunit paano kung malaman niya ang lihim ni Cherry? Paano kung matuklasan niyang siya ang ama ng mga triplets na dinadala nito? Pipiliin ba ni Cherry ang responsibilidad ng pangako kay David, o ang tawag ng pusong nagsisigaw para kay Jal?

On one side of the bed stood a warrior wolf from my pack, and on the other side was a vampire from Diego's pride, both present to guard us. Chairs were set in both sides of the large room, with the werewolves occupying the right side and the vampires on the other side. Everyone stood when the head witches of the three covens arrived and took their seats adjacent to the two parties.

These two from both sides have claimed to be mated to each other even though they are not of the same kind, so tonight, underneath the full moon, we shall witness them in bed to attest if the Moon Goddess truly destined them for each other. Let the drums roll!", one of the witches addressed everyone. The incense had aroused us . My were hard and erect, and I could clearly see the bulge in Diego's pants as he stood across. The drums signalled us to begin the mating process, and we got onto the bed. We gently , suppressing the urge to tear each other's clothes off. I felt a bit insecure and ashamed. I could literally feel my alpha's eyes on me and could only imagine the disdain that will be written on his face. Diego's father too was watching, together with their maester. Everyone we knew was there to watch us have and I just couldn't bring myself to feel comfortable. Most importantly, I couldn't help but wonder, what if we die mating?

However, after the operation, my health only worsened. He told me that the cancer had spread too quickly, and there was no hope left. It was not until I accidentally came across a hidden medical report and a massive insurance policy that I learned the truth—I never had stomach cancer. Not only had he removed my stomach, but he had also taken my uterus. Desperate, I confronted him, asking why he did that to me. He held his mistress in his arms, looking at me with disgust as he said, "If your father weren't the director, do you think I would've married you?

I'm just using your body to help me and Mabel get ahead... I'm doing you a favor." Then, he and his mistress threw me off the building, making it look like a suicide. When I opened my eyes again, I had gone back to the day of my stomach surgery.
