Zara Ledesma thought her life was finally settling into something predictable-work, home, repeat. No chaos. No complications. Until one wrong swing inside a crowded bar sends her fist straight into the jaw of Alec Varela-the ruthless, untouchable, heartbreak heir of the Varela empire. He should've been furious. He should've filed a case. He should've walked away. But he didn't. Instead, he smirked at her like she was the most entertaining thing that ever happened to him. "You hit hard," he said. "I like that." And from that night on, Alec Varela made it very clear- he wanted her. Her attitude. Her fire. Her entire existence she never wanted anyone to notice. Zara tries to stay away, because Alec's world is the last thing she wants to step into: a world built on money, reputation, loyalty... and secrets you don't dare touch. But Alec doesn't just chase-he invades. He becomes the text she waits for, the voice she can't ignore, the danger she keeps returning to. And just when she starts falling, the past she never knew she was part of comes crawling back. Alec's ex-fiancée reappears with a truth that can destroy everything: his name, his family, and Zara herself. Because the secret isn't just about Alec- it's about Zara, too. And suddenly, she's not just the girl who punched the Varela heir. She's the girl who can bring the entire Varela empire crashing down. Now they both have to decide: Is their connection worth fighting for? Or will loving him cost Zara more than she ever bargained for?
