Ranked #9 in #School Romance and #27 in #CollegeRomance ✧⁠*⁠。 Hiraya Gregorio and Thaliel Lysander Mejorada couldn't be more different. Hiraya is a ballerina, her life defined by every perfect pirouette. Thaliel is a swimmer, driven by the thrill of the race, by the rush of the water. For years, they've been enemies-competing, clashing, and seemingly hating every second of each other's presence. But beneath the surface lies a truth neither of them can deny: they're drawn to each other in ways they can't fully understand. As hidden feelings break through, they're swept into a love neither of them anticipated-one that threatens to consume them with passion and sacrifice. But when their dreams start pulling them in opposite directions, they're faced with an agonizing choice: chase their ambitions or fight for a love that feels destined to slip away. In a struggle between their dreams and the heart's deepest desires, can they navigate the undercurrents of their hearts, or will the tides of ambition sweep them apart forever? ✧⁠*⁠。 Art by: Mitoxicity Arts
