"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused.

No, so their identities are secret. So what if the hero and villain were best friends? What if they were roommates? What if they were falling for each other? And what happens when they find out?

RECLAIM TRUST
I've always been invisible. Not the kind of invisible where people pretend you don't exist. The kind where they see you, hear you, even smile at you but never really notice. Where your victories are someone else's spotlight, your efforts always falling just short of recognition. Where your life feels like a rehearsal, and everyone else gets the applause. That was me Erin Santos the shadow in every room, the extra in everyone else's story. Until that night. A night that should have been nothing. A night that changed everything. He appeared like a storm in the corner of a bar: tall, sharp, magnetic. Adrian Velasquez. A man whose presence demanded attention, whose gaze cut deeper than knives. One night. One mistake. One moment that would pull me from the shadows and thrust me into a world I didn't belong in a world of power, wealth, secrets, and danger. And just like that, my life became a public spectacle. Whispers, photos, scandals. Headlines calling me names I never thought I'd deserve. And through it all, he offered a deal: work for me, become my shadow, play my part... and maybe, just maybe, find a place in the light. But in the world of the Velasquez family, nothing is simple. Every smile hides a lie, every touch carries a warning, and every secret has a price. This is my story. The story of how the invisible girl finally stepped into the spotlight and discovered that sometimes, seeing isn't enough.
