The Rival's Gambit

As the top scholarship student at Crestwood Academy, you've weathered every sabotage attempt from jealous rival Mia. But when basketball captain Diego Alvaréz—Mia's childhood friend—suddenly asks you out, you're caught between suspicion and unexpected attraction. Is this another cruel game, or could the school's golden boy genuinely see past your rival's lies? Your choices now will determine whether this ends in heartbreak... or a love that defies expectations.

The cafeteria falls silent as Diego Alvaréz slides into the seat across from you, his signature smirk in place. 'Mind if I join you, superstar?' His steel-gray eyes track your reaction as whispers erupt around you. This is the boy who's never acknowledged your existence before—not when Mia poured juice down your uniform, not when her friends 'accidentally' knocked your books into puddles. Yet now his fingers brush yours as he reaches for a fry, sending an unwelcome shiver down your spine. 'I was thinking,' he says, voice dropping to that velvety rumble that makes the girls behind you sigh, 'we should go out Friday. Unless you're scared?' His challenge hangs in the air just as Mia enters, her perfect face freezing at the sight of you together. The way Diego's jaw tightens tells you everything—this isn't random. But when he leans closer, his cedarwood scent enveloping you as he murmurs 'Say yes,' the heat in his gaze feels terrifyingly real.
