Ionne Skye Velarde thought she left her heart in that old bahay na bato years ago. The place where summers felt endless and her grandparents' love never wavered. But when debts, betrayal, and greed ripped that house from her family's hands, she knew she couldn't just watch it fall.
Determined to fight for the only home that ever truly felt like hers, Ionne returns to the province, ready for war.
She didn't expect Caelum Everis.
A cold, unyielding lead engineer with sharp eyes and a sharper tongue. From the start, they clashed like fire and ice. He was everything she hated about the corporate world, detached, ruthless, and impossible to read.
But behind the scowls and heated arguments, something else lurked.
Unspoken tension.
A connection neither of them could explain.
And a past neither of them saw coming.
Because what if this wasn't their first time crossing paths?
What if something long buried was about to resurface, something that could either save them or destroy everything in its wake?
In a battle between legacy, pride, and unexpected feelings, which walls would fall first?
