Mikaela Valencia has always been in control-top of her class, admired by her peers, and confident that she can handle anything high school throws her way. But when Clyde De Castro transfers to her school, all her carefully planned days start unraveling. He's quiet, brooding, and somehow manages to get under her skin with every word, every glance, and every unexpected encounter. From the very first meeting, it's a clash of wills. Mikaela's sharp tongue meets Clyde's unshakable calm, and what should have been just another school year quickly spirals into constant banter, accidental run-ins, and small victories neither of them wants to admit they enjoy. With every stolen glance and carefully avoided conversation, the tension between them grows-messy, confusing, and dangerously thrilling. As classmates whisper and friends nudge, the two begin to discover that first impressions can be deceiving. Hate, it seems, can be as magnetic as attraction-and sometimes, the line between frustration and desire is thinner than anyone expects. In a world where pride, ambition, and first impressions collide, will Mikaela and Clyde ever stop fighting? Or is their rivalry only the beginning of something neither of them is ready to admit: love.
