Dominic Valez is a multimillionaire with a vast empire, spanning across industries from real estate to tech. Yet, he doesn't manage his businesses or indulge in his wealth-he drinks heavily, parties endlessly, and engages in fleeting sexual encounters. A man of power on the outside, but a deeply fractured soul within, Dominic is trapped by his past. His father died in a tragic accident, leaving everything to Dominic, while his mother, once deeply in love, spiraled into promiscuity. She resented him for inheriting his father's fortune, and her emotional neglect led Dominic into a spiral of depression and isolation. Dominic's life is built on detachment and indifference, his emotional walls impenetrable. But his internal world is more complex than anyone realizes. The man who controls his empire with a cold, ruthless hand is unknowingly living with three distinct personalities. The first is the dominant, harsh version everyone knows-intimidating and distant. The second is a softer, kinder personality, one that yearns for love and affection, but appears only in rare moments. The third is a childlike version of Dominic, seeking motherly attention and care, a side he regresses to without understanding. Alina Carter, a woman desperate to save her ailing father, enters Dominic's world. She agrees to sleep with him in exchange for money to help her father, brokered by a third party. When they meet, Dominic is every bit the ruthless businessman she's heard of-cold and unfeeling. Yet, something in him stirs when he's with her, an obsessive attraction that leads him to stalk her and, eventually, force a contract marriage upon her. As Alina moves into Dominic's home, she uncovers the truth about him: he's not just one man, but three. The harsh, dominating personality who enforces the contract; the gentle, loving side who shows Alina affection; and the childlike personality who desperately seeks love and validation. Alina is initially just a pawn in Dominic's world, but as she witnesses his struggle, she begins to realize the depths of his suffering. She's no longer just a woman trapped in a marriage for money, but the person who could help him heal. Through her care and patience, Alina begins to help Dominic confront his fractured mind, even as their relationship becomes more entangled. She finds herself torn between love and pity for him, unsure whether she can help him reconcile his split identities. As Dominic fights against the chaos of his personalities, Alina must decide if she's willing to stay and help him face his trauma, or walk away from the man she's slowly falling for.

Memory Loop Love tells the story of Elena, a young woman whose life is marred by a rare neurological condition that erases her memories every 24 hours. Each day, she wakes up with no recollection of the previous one, forced to start over. "I don't remember...anything," Elena confesses to her mother, her eyes clouded with confusion. Yet despite this, Elena refuses to let her condition define her, finding joy in small moments like sunsets and music, even as she feels the weight of losing herself. Aidan, a brilliant scientist, is consumed by his work in neurotechnology, driven by the desire to help those like Elena. "This is my life's work," he says, his gaze fixed on a monitor, as he pushes aside any thoughts of his emotional isolation. But when Elena enters his lab, everything changes. Though she doesn't remember meeting him, Aidan is immediately captivated by her strength and beauty. "Have we met before?" Elena asks, unaware of the bond that's already beginning to form between them. As Aidan works to help Elena retain her memories, he finds himself falling for her. But Elena's condition is worsening, and with every reset, the time they have together becomes more precious. "You'll forget me, won't you?" Aidan asks, his voice tinged with fear. "Maybe. But for today, I remember you." Their love story unfolds in the face of uncertainty, exploring how love, like memory, can slip away-but also how it can endure in the present, in the moments we choose to cherish, even when everything else is lost.
