Ximena Claros never believed true love existed. She had been with different men to back up her claim. Though still very much young and could easily grip the attention of any man that comes her way, she never intends to. Then comes Jason Vidal, the hottie next door, Hollywood heartthrob and rambunctious neighbour who only lived in the moment and never intend to get hitched. Only a glance from him told Ximena he was trouble. After his grandfather took ill of a disease believed to be incurable and requested of him of an heir, he had no option but to oblige to the wish of the old man. Will Ximena be susceptible to Jason's charm and fall for him? Also, will she be able to change his playboy's act?

Stirring as a knock sounded on the door, Ximena jerked awake when her hands collided with some pillows.A loud shriek slipped out of her lips and she fell from the bed.Groaning, she climbed atop the bed again and her brows creased as she stared at the unfamiliar room she was in.Then, her eyes shifted to herself.Instead of the clothes she had worn yesterday, she donned a black lacy nightgown that reached her thigh.Her heart palpitated and almost jumped out of her chest when she heard a thump outside of the door.Where was she? She thought as she stumbled out of the enormous bed to the broad window which was covered by a large curtain.She noticed she was in a master suite. There wasn't much to see in the room because the curtains were drawn together and the lights from the chandelier were dim.Ximena didn't remember coming to this place, and neither was the room she had rented in the Bright Hotel for the duration of her stay this massive.Was she abducted or in a kind of trance?

“I'm sorry, all that happened to you. How is your father?" Jason asked, staring at her.“Right now, I don't know how he is. But when I left New York, he was in a critical condition and it saddens me to see him that way." Said Ximena.“The person I had thought would help me, discarded me like I was nobody to her. She didn't even turn to look back at me once." She added.Her lips turned down in disgust as she remembered what had transpired earlier. She might have been delusional to have thought the woman would want to help with whatever she wanted.Yet, she had been disappointed over again.Jason couldn't imagine what she was going through right now. He was glad he had stepped on the break on time as soon as she had jumped in front of his car. He thought of what might have happened if he hadn't.He didn't quite believe she was here until he felt the softness of her skin as he lifted her off the pavement."What brought you to that damned place in the first place?" Jason asked, his eyes l

Ximena tugged the sweatshirt she donned around her body tighter as the chilly night air penetrated her exposed skin.She shivered and emitted a sigh when someone staggered into her.“I'm sorry." He sputtered, then went on his way whilst stumbling into the trash can.Ximena let out another sigh as she read the sign on the doorpost. “Choice bar.”She glanced back at her phone, and read the requirement which had been pasted by the website to become a bartender.“I hope I won't regret doing this," Mumbled Ximena as she slipped the glasses she had picked earlier from the thrift store on.She tugged her hair into a messy bun before pulling out the beanie in her backpack.There were not many people who had naturally white hair in the world. And for once she looked a lot like the famous model Jazmine Fernandez. The white hair and stormy grey eyes made it even hard to miss the semblance between them.But now with the beanie on, she looked more like a nerd as she glimpsed at her reflection in a

"Ugh!" Ximena mumbled as her tummy somersaulted yet again.She pinched her eyes close, opened her mouth for air to drift in, and slouched into her seat as the plane decelerated.She loathed travelling by air, but she had no choice due to the nature of her job. Ever since she had gotten the job as a part-time model in the current agency she was in, she had been going to different locations by air even though she could go by road.It was a necessity because she had attempted to talk her boss out of it, but he had termed it as rebelliousness if she didn't abide by the rule.Asides from Ximena loathing it, travelling by air was faster and safer than other means. So, she had opted to use it today despite it being a work-free day for her.She counted to ten slowly, gripping the seat as the pilot announced they were landing.Her heart plummeted along with the plane, and her forehead became damp.She breathed in and out deeply as soon as it landed, but her ordeal didn't end there. Instead, i

"La casa de Vidal," Jason said to the chauffeur whilst glancing at the golden wristwatch he wore."Okey," He nodded, before wounding up the windows, and switching on the air-conditioning in the car.Jason relaxed into the seat and emitted a sigh.The ride from the airport to the hospital was taking too long. Or perhaps, because it had been long since he last visited El Escorial.His hometown still looked the same, but he noticed some small stores which weren't there, close to the road leading to the Vidal's Villa.He was jet-lagged and he desired to rest in the comfort of his penthouse an hour from here before exploring the city. But he needed to visit his grandfather who had taken ill, and the old man was also the reason he was here.He hoped his visit would be as planned as he had other things he needed to do. Jason winced whilst kneading the flesh at the back of his neck as he alighted the car a few minutes later.He strode into the clinic, and his nose crinkled as the scent of an

~This is it.~"I will not involve the police in this," She murmured.It was just a minor problem that could be solved amicably by two mature people.Ximena Claros was going to confront her Spanish neighbour and Hollywood heartthrob, Jason Vidal, to tune down the volume of the dumb punk song blaring out of his obnoxious boombox and she would do that calmly even though her body trembled with outrage.She hopped out of bed, stuck her legs into the fuzzy pink slippers that were by the side of her nightstand and marched to his apartment which was next to hers. Her hands raised to bang on his door, but it went wide open as if he was expecting her.Ximena placed her hands on her waist, and she scowled at him as he scrutinized her.Jason's eyes gleamed when he saw the person at the entrance and he took a moment to also survey her."To what pleasure do I owe the snow princess a visit at," He paused, glancing at the fancy wristwatch he constantly wore. "Midnight. Or should I reckon you want a k
