Jimena and Pablo met during a summer vacation, and the spark of love ignited. They began a passionate relationship. An unexpected pregnancy turned their lives upside down, forcing them to marry under the pressure of their families, who shared the same business interests. More than a year later, their relationship has been reduced to the responsibilities of parenthood and social appearances, as passion and affection have faded, leaving behind regret, hurtful words, and indifference. Jimena wants to win back the passionate and fun man her husband used to be, but there’s a problem: a sensual assistant is determined to conquer Pablo, who finds himself drawn to his new employee. Can Jimena rekindle her husband's love? Or… is it already too late for them?
Leer másJimena woke up with dark circles under her eyes. Even though the baby was already six months old, there were nights when he wouldn’t let her sleep, and this had been one of those nights. By the time she got up, Pablo had already left for work, so she began her morning workout routine.
She had been putting in a lot of effort lately, especially since she’d gained quite a bit of weight during her pregnancy. However, she was regaining her figure without much trouble, as she had always been disciplined about her exercise.
In front of the mirror, Jimena studied her pale skin, noticing how her blue eyes seemed lost amidst the dark circles, a clear sign of exhaustion and sleeplessness. But the dark circles weren’t just from lack of sleep—she had cried again the night before. She remembered when Pablo had kissed her for the first time that summer, the moment their love story had begun.
They had been in the middle of a forest, playing a silly paintball game. She drifted into the memories...
“Hey, beautiful,” Pablo said, approaching her, trying to intimidate her. She stood tall, studying his every move.
“Are you planning to shoot me?” he asked, stepping in front of her weapon.“What are you doing?” she asked nervously, seeing her gun pressed against his chest.“Why don’t we play a different game?” He dropped his weapon, then took hers and tossed it to the ground.“What do you think you’re doing, Pablo Mars?” she demanded, her voice trembling.“I just can’t wait for our date tomorrow,” he said, surprising her. With that, he pressed his lips to hers.The kiss was slow and tender, but still, Jimena felt like she was losing her breath. She’d kissed other guys before, but never had she felt anything that sent shivers through her like this.Immersed in the pleasure that the delicious lips gave her, she gripped his neck, her fingers tightening passionately to intensify the kiss, to which he responded by grabbing her waist. The union of their mouths became more intense and the desire caused an exciting tingling on their skin.
Paul attacked her neck, at the same time hitting her against a nearby tree, then he began to caress her more boldly and bit her earlobe. He clung to the girl's mouth fiercely and kissed her neck again. Jimena felt like she would lose her breath at any moment, due to the savagery and hunger with which he was kissing her.
"Don't you think we're moving a little too fast?" she said, pulling away slightly, her gaze lingering on his deep brown eyes.
"Sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable." He smiled, his voice low and teasing. "But just so you know, we've got a date tomorrow, and... well, there's a good chance I might push things a bit." He whispered the last part near her neck, his breath sending a shiver through her as it brushed her skin. "So it's up to you—whether you're ready to take the challenge or not." He gave her a wicked smile before turning and disappearing between the trees.***
Pablo was sitting behind his desk, reviewing some papers, when his new assistant walked in. He had left the task of finding her replacement for his previous employee, trusting that no one knew better who would be the right person for the job than she did.
And she chose wisely.
The young woman was very disciplined and excellent at her work. In addition to her solid resume, she had experience and adapted quickly, learning on the fly. The only problem was her exotic beauty and the natural sensuality she radiated. To make matters worse, the girl seemed to be showing an interest that went beyond the professional, making subtle hints. As if that weren't enough, his relationship with Jimena wasn’t going well.
He looked his assistant up and down in a daze. She was wearing a tight gray mini-skirt, inside of which she wore a white shirt that revealed part of her large cleavage.
The girl possessed the most beautiful dark mixed-race skin he had ever seen, which contrasted with her gray eyes, whose crystalline shine gave them a singular and very attractive appearance. Her black, straight, and abundant hair was usually loose and covered her arms since it was very long. She had a tiny waist and a wide, well-defined hip. Her legs were long and beautiful. Her small and full lips, and those thick eyelashes that he still didn't know if they were natural. What to say about her breasts, he also doubted they were what nature gave them.
But there was something about her that unraveled him, something that made him nervous. He knew it was wrong, that he shouldn’t allow himself to tremble when he heard that sensual voice, or when he saw that smile that seemed to invite him to sin.
Although his relationship with Jimena wasn’t what it used to be, she was still his wife and the mother of his child. He couldn’t go that far.
His assistant approached seductively and handed him some documents, purposely brushing her hand against his. He looked at her indifferently, trying to mask his desire. The girl left a bit disappointed, while he was left disturbed, not knowing how long he could resist that beautiful temptation.
During those days, Jimena had already given shape to her new project: an institution that would promote and teach various branches of the arts, work with victims of abuse, depression, or substance addiction, and offer vocational training to help people find employment.She had gathered her sisters and her cousin Laura to present the project.“Girls, do I have your support?” Jimena asked, looking at her sisters and cousin expectantly.“I love your idea, Jimena,” Laura replied enthusiastically.“Count me in—and even Lisa. I know she’ll be thrilled to help,” Claudia added. “We all have a story to tell, and we can be a source of support for women who’ve gone through things like we have.”Lisa was one of Claudia’s students—a young woman who struggled with her weight and had been bullied at university. Claudia had been helping her rebuild her self-esteem, and their relationship had deepened into a genuine alliance. Seeing that side of her sister filled Jimena with pride; from being a vain,
Ariadna sat in her cell, arms wrapped around her knees. Tears streaked her face, no longer radiant as it once had been. She couldn’t stand another minute in that place; she’d rather be dead than keep living in that hell.She missed her small but spotless apartment—her bed, her sheets that carried a sweet scent. She missed the satisfaction of looking at herself in the mirror wearing her favorite clothes; she missed her breakfast and the black coffee from the office.Ariadna also missed going out to lunch with her coworkers, laughing at their gossip and jokes. She longed for the feeling of self-sufficiency and power when she got her paycheck, went shopping, and filled her refrigerator at the supermarket. She missed her freedom. She missed everything she had once complained about.***Jimena got up early that day, got Adrián ready, put him in the car, and set off. She was thrilled that, finally, Pablo would be leaving the rehab center and returning to his job at the company.Just before
Jimena was at her sisters' apartment, just hanging out. Claudia and Lisa, Clau's college student, were working on their designs while she and Cecilia approved their creations."This is beautiful, Claudia!" Jimena complimented, admiring the finished garments. "It’s different and original.""Wait until you see it on Matt," Claudia replied with a big smile. "He looks amazing—and sexy.""Please!" Cecilia exclaimed. "He could use a wardrobe makeover.""Yeah, Clau," Jimena agreed. "You should totally help him. He’s good-looking and competent, but with those weird clothes he wears, he doesn’t exactly look like a presentable professor. God! Where does he even get that stuff?""I know." Claudia slumped onto the couch, looking down. "I think he has some insecurities about his body. You have no idea how hard it was to convince him to be our model, but little by little, I’ll get him to change that strange way of dressing.""Well, if the professor starts dressing like a normal person, you'd better
In that place, the light was never enough, as darkness followed her everywhere. It was that invisible accusing finger, that little voice that scolded her, the part that rebelled against her ego and stubbornness, yet remained hidden deep within, for it was hard to admit she had been wrong.She still thought it was unfair that she was there, in that damp place—neither aesthetic nor comfortable, and, in her eyes, filthy. No matter how much they cleaned it, she found it repulsive."You think you’re so special, idiot!" A woman with a bully’s face approached Ariadna, whose face was still partially covered. She was in the prison bathroom, surrounded by a group of inmates."Get away from me, filthy rats!" she confronted them, emboldened and haughty, but they all began to laugh."What should we do with you for your insolence?" one of them responded, licking her lips in anticipation.Minutes later, Ariadna lay on the cold, dirty floor, beaten, her facial wound bleeding. Tears streamed down her
Several days later, the Mars family filed a formal complaint against Ariadna, who remained in preventive custody until trial. For some reason, Jimena thought it was a good idea to visit her and face her, but seeing her so broken filled her with pity. She was no longer even a shadow of the beautiful, self-assured woman she had once been."Why did you come? To mock me?" Ariadna snapped, hatred blazing in her eyes, accusation carved into her features. Her face was covered with gauze, and she was still in the prison hospital due to the gunshot wound in her arm."No, I just came to see how you were doing," Jimena replied gently."Wretched woman! Are you happy now? You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?" she spat, unleashing all her rage and frustration on her. She hated her, now more than ever.While her own future was uncertain and lonely, Jimena had everything. Ariadna thought it unfair that everything she had earned through so much humiliation had been snatched away, unbearable that her riva
The sun had barely begun to brush the city with its first rays when Ariadna and her boyfriend started collecting all the most valuable items in the apartment.Using the key she had stolen from the office, she opened the small safe Pablo kept in his little study and pulled out all the cards he had stored there, cash, masculine jewelry, and his wedding ring—the one he treasured and gazed at during his emotional lows.With a satisfied smirk, Ariadna stuffed everything into a bag and began giving her boyfriend instructions on which furniture they could take and sell.However, when the boy started hauling some items, they were stopped by the security guard.“Excuse me, miss, but without authorization from Mr. Mars, we cannot allow you to take anything from here,” he said.“How dare you! How insolent!” Ariadna snapped, itching to kill him. “This is my boyfriend’s apartment and his furniture. I can do whatever I want with it!”“I’m sorry, miss, but we need authorization from Mr. or Mrs. Mars
