Her childhood was forged in shadows, and she was sharpened into a weapon, trained to be a ghost, a killer—an instrument of vengeance. The target: a decorated general who brought down her family. But fate doesn't follow orders. Just as Lara was about to execute her long-planned mission, everything spiraled out of control. A military convoy intercepted her escape route—escorting none other than the general himself. And then came the moment that changed everything. A blinding crash. Screeching tires. Her body was thrown like a ragdoll, then darkness. She had a fleeting recollection of another world, another lifetime where kings ruled the land with an iron fist. But she woke up, and twelve long months had passed.  She did not know where she was or who she was. She remembered nothing. They told her different names. A child with trembling hope whispered, “Mommy, your name is Moira Torres.” Her doctor insisted, “Your admission slip says Larissa Reyes.” A hardened general leaned close and commanded, “Remember who you are. Remember your mission.” Then another general—dangerously calm, incredibly familiar—looked at her as if she mattered and asked, “Can I call you Lara?” The name unlocked something buried deep in her soul. Lara Norse Kromwel. Daughter of General Odin Norse. Empress of the First Empire. But the man who watched her most closely dismissed it with cold certainty. “This is the 21st century,” he said. “What nonsense are you spouting? What Empress? You are my woman. You can only be mine!"

Amara Gabrielle was a mother for only two weeks before her world shattered. Dragged from her bed while her postpartum wounds still throbbed, she was accused of a murder she didn’t commit. ​"I’ll wait for you. I’ll raise Vero. Just stay quiet and trust me," whispered Richard, her husband, the man she loved more than life itself. ​Bound by blind trust, Amara spent 7 agonizing years behind bars, sleeping on cold mats and clutching the only photo of her son until it was worn thin. She survived on the promise of a "faithful" husband. ​But the day she was released, the dream turned into a nightmare. ​Richard didn't pick her up. He was living a life of luxury built on the ashes of her company. Worst of all, her son, Vero, looked at her with eyes full of hatred. "Who are you? I don't have a mother like you!" ​Betrayed, shunned, and left with nothing, the soft Amara died in that prison cell. In her place, a cold, ruthless woman emerged. ​"You want forgiveness, Richard? I'll give it to you ... but only after I've watched you crawl in the dirt and lose everything I once built for you." ​The hunt begins. And this time, Amara won't be the one behind bars.

He is already involved with someone else, his boss’s daughter, and speaks as though this version of events has always been established fact. No one in the room challenges him. The doctors attribute Willow’s disbelief to concussion and trauma. Nurses lower their voices and repeat the same explanation with careful reassurance until it becomes official, documented, and final.

With that single gesture, the past is closed. Every detail they present contradicts what Willow knows she lived. Weeks have been erased. Conversations have been rewritten.
