Portia Sebring was born into a family that’s considered royalty in the intelligence community, and the fact that she’s a woman doesn’t preclude her from joining the “family business.” A linguistic genius, she’s recruited by her older brother to decipher Russian codes for the Venona Project. While at Arlington Hall, she meets Nigel Mann, a CIA officer known as Mr. Freeze, who’s been vetted to the NSA. Unbeknownst to Portia, her father is behind the meeting. Rumor has it that Portia, called the ice princess, is also a lesbian, and at this time in America -- the late ’50s -- it could negate any veracity to the codes she deciphers. A match with an equally cold man who won’t distract her from her work seems the ideal solution in her father’s eyes.<br><br>Things don’t go quite according to plan, as both Portia and Nigel develop strong feelings for each other. They marry and eventually start a family. However, the lifetime together they anticipate is cut short when Nigel’s jet crashes on New Year’s Day, 1978. Devastated, but with a thirteen-year-old son depending on her, Portia has no choice but to go on after Nigel’s death.<br><br>When Quinton, her son, is approached to join the US Equestrian Team for the 1980 Summer Olympics, she’s pleased and proud, but those plans are dashed due to the government’s boycott of the Games. To distract him, Portia takes him to France on a wine-buying trip, and it’s there that Quinton first feels an attraction for someone of his own sex. Portia, a wise mother, is aware, but since she herself had a same-sex affair in her early twenties, she’s very accepting of this.<br><br>Along with Gregor, her trusted bodyguard and devoted family friend, she watches as Quinton follows in his father's and her footsteps in the "family business," and finally finds a partner worthy of him, WBIS agent Mark Vincent. She’s happy for them, but sure that she won’t love again, since Sebrings have their “one” and she's lost hers, but is she right?

La ves?— Raphael preguntó, su voz un hilacho de tensión.  Mis músculos tensaron como cuerdas de arco.  — Sí…—  — ¿La reconoces? Mis pasos retumbaron en la tierra mientras me acercaba, cada movimiento amplificado por el silencio . Me agaché. Con un gesto brusco, aparté su cabello de la cara.  Y entonces lo entendí .  — No puede ser —, dije, pero las palabras sonaron huecas en el aire cargado .  — ¿Qué cosa? — Rafael insistió, su voz afilada como una daga.  Mis puños se cerraron hasta que los huesos crujieron.  — Es… imposible. El viento aulló de nuevo, arrastrando consigo el nombre que no me atrevía a pronunciar.  Era ella. Y si estaba aquí, el infierno estaba a punto de desatarse. .

From the moment she could remember, Vivienne had known that something in her life was terribly wrong. At first, it was nothing more than a feeling—an unshakable, suffocating unease that clung to her chest like invisible chains. As she grew older, she came to understand the truth. …This world was nothing more than a meticulously crafted plot. A narrative controlled by some unseen force. A story in which every life unfolded according to the will of that power. And her role? She was nothing but a secondary villain. A detestable character, despised by all. Fated for a pitiful and tragic end. Vivienne Blackwood refused to surrender to such a script. She refused to relinquish her right to choose—her right to live her own life. So she fought. She tried to escape the plot, to break free from that suffocating destiny… But it was useless. She tried to prevent her parents’ deaths… In vain. She tried to change her future, burying herself in relentless study day and night to earn a place in a prestigious medical university… In vain. She even tried to stay away from the protagonist of this world… In vain. And yet, in a miracle she could never have anticipated, she managed to defy fate—if only for a moment. She saved the protagonist… and his mother, who had been destined to die. She even became someone dear to him. A close friend. But everything shattered. The plot seized control of her mind… her body. And just like that, the protagonist turned on her—hating her, rejecting her with a cruelty that carved straight through her soul. Vivienne Blackwood felt as though she were suffocating—like a corpse forced to breathe. She could no longer endure living in a body that wasn’t hers… a life she had no power to control. So she made a choice. She chose to end her life— To escape that wretched, suffocating story. But instead of death… She found herself bound to a system. It told her that if she completed one hundred missions, it would return her to her world—and free her from the plot. Vivienne believed it. Unaware that she had stepped onto a path paved with thorns— A path that would shatter her, piece by piece, until nothing remained that could ever be made whole again. But there was no turning back. No room for regret. And when Vivienne Blackwood finally returned to her world… The girl who had once burned with life, confidence, and defiance was gone. In her place remained something hollow. Something faded and broken— Like a shattered vase, drained of color and meaning. No life. No joy. No sorrow. No feeling at all. …Until the protagonist of this world began to notice her.
