(Till The Redline Series #1) Lucien Reid Helios Montenegro from District 13 is a famous racer in the Philippines. Many racers from different districts are afraid to compete against him, as he is known for being dominant on the road. No one has ever defeated him-until Damien arrived. Damien was raised in Spain. He came to the Philippines to be with his mother. Since Damien also has a passion for racing, his friends encouraged him to join their district and compete in drifting competitions. That decision led him to meet Red. Both are highly competitive when it comes to racing, and their names are already well-known in the racing competition in the Philippines. From the moment they met on the track, tension filled the air-two different styles, two different worlds, but the same hunger for speed. Red was precise and fearless, while Damien was unpredictable and bold. They became rivals on the road, pushing each other beyond limits every time they raced. Every drift, every near crash, every finish line they crossed side by side only made their rivalry burn hotter. The people started calling them "Redline Rivalry" because neither of them ever backed down. But somewhere between competition and obsession, something unfamiliar started to grow. A hesitation in the last turn. A glance that lasted too long. A feeling neither of them could name but both refused to ignore. Are Red and Damien destined to destroy each other on the track or will their rivalry become something neither speed nor pride can outrun? Because in racing, there's always a winner and a loser but no one ever said anything about falling in love with your greatest opponent and somewhere beyond the limits of speed and pride... when they finally reach the Redline, will they cross it together... or is it just the point where one of them is left watching the other disappear into the smoke for good? START: APR 17, 2026 END: JUNE 29, 2026
