Generation 12 followed the life of Elspeth, a passionate, strong, family-oriented chef with dreams of owning her own restaurant. In high school, she met Colten Lucero, and they quickly became inseparable, their bond seemingly unbreakable. He was her first love, her first kiss, and her first everything. But as time passed, Colten began to grow distant, leaving Elspeth feeling confused and insecure. She tried to reach out, but he refused to open up, and one day, without warning, he disappeared—no calls, no texts. Her heart shattered, and with him, her sense of security vanished.

​

Despite the heartache, Elspeth picked up the pieces and went on to get accepted into two prestigious universities, eventually choosing Britechester to study culinary arts. There, she met Graham Wolfe, a determined political science student with dreams of a career in politics. The two immediately hit it off, and though Elspeth was still healing from her past, she let her heart open to Graham, trying to move on from Colten.

​

Years passed, and Graham proposed to Elspeth in an extravagant display, complete with paparazzi and fireworks. Surprised but happy, she said yes. Their wedding was a lavish affair, attended by the most influential figures. However, as time went on, Graham grew more focused on starting a family, while Elspeth remained focused on her career and the restaurant she dreamed of opening. The tension between them grew, especially as Graham’s career in politics kept him away on frequent campaigns and trips.

One day, while having coffee with her best friend Yvette, Elspeth overheard a voice that sent a rush of memories flooding back—it was Colten. His unexpected return stirred old feelings, and she realized that despite everything, her heart had never truly let go of him. Though she and Graham had built a life together, their differences had driven them apart, and the realization that Colten was still the love of her life was undeniable.

​

Caught in a whirlwind of emotions, Elspeth and Colten began an affair, not just for physical reasons, but because they were truly soulmates. But the weight of her decision weighed heavily on her, especially remembering the pain Colten had caused when he left her before. She struggled with the choice of staying with Graham or following her heart back to Colten. The decision was made for her when, while visiting Graham during one of his campaigns, she caught him in the act of cheating with his PR assistant, Leighton.

Heartbroken but resolute, Elspeth ran straight into Colten’s arms, knowing that her future was with him. They started a new life in Tartosa, where Elspeth opened her dream restaurant and they raised four beautiful children: Calum, Francesca, Xalia, and their generation 13 heir, Theodore. Their love story, filled with twists and turns, ultimately led them to the life they always should have had together.
