She wasn't looking for fame. She wasn't even supposed to be there. But one night at Coachella - lost, overwhelmed, and rescued by a stranger with a warm voice and soft eyes - changed everything. Ella is quiet. Kind. The girl in the background who makes things beautiful without needing attention. But when that stranger turns out to be Heeseung from Enhypen, her quiet life becomes anything but. What starts as a protective lie turns into secret moments, real feelings, and a love story the world slowly pieces together. Now, caught between staying hidden or stepping into the spotlight, Ella has to choose: Stay safe in the shadows - Or risk everything for the kind of love that only happens once in a lifetime.

❝ Way I really went in like this Thank God I ain't 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 ❞ Nishimura Riki has one rule, never lose to Hayashi Kairi. She's loud, brilliant and the only person who's ever managed to keep up with him in class. For years, their rivalry has been the fuel for late night study sessions and heated debates that leave sparks flying-and not the good kind. But one wild college party in Tokyo changes everything. One too many drinks, one reckless kiss, and suddenly Riki wakes up tangled in the sheets with the girl he swore he'd never touch. Now the lines between hate and want are blurred. Their rivalry doesn't disappear-it just gets hotter, messier and far more dangerous to their hearts. Because when enemies become lovers, someone's bound to lose-and this time, it might not be on the exam. © cherviies 2025

No one talks to Riki Nishimura. He sits in the back. Keeps his head down. Never smiles. Never speaks. He's not shy-he's silent. Unreachable. Some say dangerous. Others say broken. But no one dares to get close enough to find out. No one... except Kiana Valentina Torres. The most popular girl in school. Venom in her lip gloss and boys on her heels. Loud, unbothered, and undefeated. Kiana doesn't chase. She gets dared. So when someone bets her she can't crack the quiet kid? She makes him her next game. Once she gets close, she finds out Riki is anything but cold. He's chaos beneath the quiet. Possessive. Obsessive. Addicted. The kind of boy who kisses like he owns her and touches like he's trying to break her. They don't just sneak around. They crash into each other. And Riki isn't just a dare anymore. He's a problem. And the deeper they fall, the more explosive they get:fighting, loving, ruining each other in every room, every secret corner of the city. Not just sneaking around school. Everywhere. Her friends are suspicious. His silence gets louder. And when he finds out the truth? She might not break him. He might break her first. "This isn't love. It's damage with a pretty face." --- THE FORBIDDEN SERIES #3 | Nishimura Riki #highschool au. / quiet guy and popular girl © all credits to rykimura INCOMPLETE // 07/09/25
