family

The night of my engagement party, I discovered my future contract husband was cheating with my sister. I was angry and broken all at once. So when I found his stepbrother, I married him instead. But why was he the one begging me to come back afterward? And who would have thought that his useless stepbrother turned out to be the best man I'd ever met.

Aria Hale's life went very dark when her mate rejected her because she had a daughter, which he claimed had no wolf powers. To top this off, cheating occurred a day before their mating ceremony! Her heart broken, Aria had one-night stand with a guy she hardly knew. The next day was the mating ceremony of Lyra, her daughter, where fate had delivered a mighty blow! The guy from the previous night, Lucian Vale, is now Lyra's destined mate! What followed were the secrets and heartbreak of Aria, who was frightened as she tried to keep the night a secret to protect her daughter. But Lucian remembered Aria, and he was never going to let her go. Fighting against guilt, desire, and fear of ruining her daughter's life, Aria did everything she could to stop thinking about Lucian. But fighting her feelings only made her love him more. Then the Luna began to plot against Aria, setting her up with the decision of choosing between her daughter's future and the love of her life ; to walk free of a love that was burdened by guilt or to follow her heart.

Every person on Earth carries a private wish—one fragile hope they cradle quietly in the corner of their heart. For Aria Elowen Sterling, that wish had always been the same: to meet the man who was meant for her. Not a prince, not a billionaire, not a flawless fantasy. Just the right man. One who would look at her the way no one else could. One who would understand her dreams, her fears, her edges and softness. One who would choose her—not for her wealth, not for her family name, not for the flawless image she was trained to project, but simply because he loved her. Every Christmas Eve since childhood, Aria had whispered the same wish into the night sky, releasing it into the cold winter breeze as if the falling snowflakes might carry it upward to someone listening. This tradition did not begin out of loneliness, but out of faith—faith that somewhere in the vast world, there existed a man walking toward her, even if she had not met him yet. But wishes have a strange way of returning to us. Sometimes delayed. Sometimes disguised. And sometimes… twisted by fate into a shape we never expected. Aria Sterling grew up in a world shaped by warm lights, polished silver, and perfectly orchestrated moments. Wealth and privilege wrapped around her life like a soft winter coat, shielding her from the harsher winds of the world. Her family name commanded respect; their legacy demanded perfection. She was the Sterling heiress—brilliant, accomplished, beautiful, and above all, responsible. From the outside, she was the image of a woman who had everything. But inside, she carried the quiet ache of a wish unfulfilled, a longing she never confessed aloud. And then, one winter morning—exactly one month before Christmas—Aria opened her front door and found the miracle she had spent her life waiting for. But it did not come in the form of a man. It came in the form of a child. A baby boy. Wrapped in soft white cloth. His cheeks flushed from the cold. His eyes—unbelievably—bearing a color she recognized from her dreams. Eyes that did not belong to her. Eyes that belonged to a stranger she had never met… and yet somehow knew. Beside the baby rested a sealed envelope containing a paternity test—one that identified Aria unequivocally as the child’s biological mother. But Aria had never been pregnant. She had never carried a child. She had never given birth. In that moment, the entire axis of her life shifted. From that morning on, Aria’s problem was no longer just finding her destined partner. It was uncovering a truth that should have been impossible. The arrival of the baby—whom she later named Snow—did not simply tear a hole in her perfect life. It ripped open a seam in her reality, exposing the first threads of a deeper mystery: a web of lies, secrets, and hidden identities wrapped around her existence long before she ever realized it. This novel began from that single explosive contradiction: How can a woman become the biological mother of a child she has never carried? Is it science? A brilliant deception? A conspiracy? A hidden past? Destiny? Or the kind of magic that only awakens when the snow begins to fall? The journey that follows is not simply Aria’s attempt to prove her innocence or clear her name—it is a profound search for identity, belonging, trust, and the kind of love that can survive even the most bewildering circumstances.

Every Christmas Eve would come and everyone would celebrate it with great joy. But, that's a different thing about me. I'm celebrating Christmas Eve in two different settings. The first time, I celebrated with in mourning. Because on Christmas Eve I lost someone who meant everything to me. The second I'm celebrating happily. It's because someone came into my life the moment I lost someone I loved. Now that someone has become my reason to move on. But, unexpectedly, someone was present among us. The foreigner trying to win the favor of the one I love and, of course, it makes me jealous. I always did everything I could to make foreigners feel uncomfortable between the two of us. I won't let that person take what's mine. "What are you doing?" someone asked in a shocked tone as he stared at me. "Sorry, I didn't mean to." My answer to the one standing before me. I bowed my head to hide my smile on my lips. "Why are those clothes wet?" Ask someone who just came out of the toilet. So I immediately took her right hand, saying. "I think this person can't go with us, Bie. Can you see what the person was wearing wet?" I said with a spoiled tone. After that, the foreigner started to pay back everything I did. And the battle began!

Some memories don’t leave us. They just sit quietly in one corner of the heart, waiting- for a smell, a voice, a place- to wake them up again. The Scent of Our Yesterday started as a simple village-to-city love story: two kids, a childhood bond, a breakup of distance, a reunion in a busy modern world. As I kept writing, Ha-rin and Jae-hyun refused to stay “simple”. Their love kept circling back like time itself… so the story also grew into something bigger. This series is about: childhood innocence in a small village, college fights and ego, corporate politics and pressure, misunderstandings, second chances, and one love that keeps coming back, even when time, destiny, and people try to break it. Later, you’ll also see a touch of mystery and time—loops, echoes, fragments of “what if we had chosen differently?”. But at its heart, it is still the same: one boy, one girl, one long journey of growing up, getting hurt, healing, and finding their way back to each other without losing themselves. I wanted the story to feel close to us- emotional, little funny, a bit dramatic, but always honest. If while reading, you remember your first crush, your campus days, your family, your old village, or that one person who still feels like “home” somewhere in your heart- that is enough for me. Thank you for staying with Ha-rin and Jae-hyun… through their yesterdays, echoes, and tomorrows. -- qwrhsth4
