      The Christmas Client - Sophia Peony

      Chapter One

      image-placeholder

      Winter had arrived and Juni Katasa, one of Soya’s biggest superstars that was gaining popularity overseas, had been waiting all year for it to return. It wasn’t because of the holiday season—he didn’t have much of a family to celebrate with—it was the snow he’d been waiting for. Skiing had been the one thing his father had taught him that had left a positive impact on his life. He’d been born in Riya and had been raised there by his father and grandfather. They ran a ski resort until Juni was ten. When his grandfather died, the resort fell apart. His father had been terrible at everything good…he tried, but he was still terrible. Everything his father tried to do, whether it’d been his marriage, holding a job, or running the family business, he always crashed and burned. Juni’s mother abandoned them when he was only three. She had decided that she just couldn’t deal with her husband and the reminder of a son. She left one day and never looked back. While his grandfather had been alive, he’d kept Juni’s father in line.

      His father and grandfather taught him to love skiing; it was the family business after all. By the time he was five, he skied better than the average adult skier. It was in his blood, his grandfather would say. It was also the one thing his father had been good at. His father had a chance to join the national team when he was young, but an injury due to his recklessness took him out of the sports professionally, for good. That had been the start of his father’s decline. After the sudden and unexpected death of his grandfather, Juni’s father not only lost the family business, they’d lost their home, too. His father had no choice but to move them south, closer to the capital, the high crime city of Jusong.

      The one thing Juni had going for him was his face. He knew what kind of life he could live outside of Jusong, unlike many who’d been born and raised there. He worked hard in school to get decent grades, kept himself out of trouble and the gangs, and worked to get himself out of that city. Luckily, the capital wasn’t far from Jusong, and he knew that his face could help him get somewhere. He’d been scouted while working as a busser at a restaurant. They originally wanted him to be an idol, but quickly realized he had zero talents in singing, dancing, or anything music related. He
