Galactic Fate Series #1: Contended Checkmate
Niore Klein Meteor "Kleo" Moquierovasco is the youngest grandson of the most successful businessman in the country, Shane Gylbert Moquierovasco. Raised in privilege and the pressure of expectations, Kleo has always walked the straight path--occupied by academics and the family business.
Magnolia Giselle "Maggie" Crisostomo, on the other hand, had to fight every inch of her way in life. Orphaned young and forced to rebuild her life from scratch, she dreams of becoming an architect, fueled by the memory of her mother she lost too soon.
Though their worlds couldn't be more different, both Kleo and Maggie share the same silent promise: to make their mothers proud. They prioritize their futures so much that none of them ever thought of catching feelings for anyone. However, fate had other plans.
It was their 16th birthdays when they unknowingly exchanged gifts--two strangers tied by a fleeting moment. Two years later, fate brings them face-to-face at university, enrolled in the same course and block, where ambition meets unexpected connection.
