The Elusive Charmer [To Be Published Under 8Letters]

#8lettersRomCom June Writing Challenge Entry

***

The elusive-Rocher, seemed like an ordinary person by day. But when the night comes, she worked undercover, luring notorious gamblers to catch them in the act. Tinatago ang kanyang identity kung kinakailangan. Pero nagbago ang lahat nang dumating ang isang misyon na kailangan niyang gawin-mag-participate sa isang high-stake billiards game para ma-expose ang isang mapanlinlang na negosyante na sangkot din sa ilegal na gawain, partikular na ang human trafficking.

Meanwhile, the charmer- JL, once a professional pool player, was forced to retire due to an injury and now relies on gambling for income. Iilan lamang ang nakakaalam na siya rin pala ay isang runaway heir, na tumakas para iwasan ang kanyang mga responsibilidad at sundan ang kanyang passion sa sports. He crossed paths with Rocher when she placed a bet on him on a money game, and an unexpected connection sparked between them. Though he uncovered her secret and questioned her motives, he didn't pose a threat; instead, he found himself falling for her. Siya pa mismo ang gumawa ng paraan upang mas makilala ito sa kabila ng pagiging mailap.

But everything will change with some unwanted secrets that will emerge, both connected to Rocher and JL, especially their pasts. Ang mga sikretong ito ay maaring sisira sa kanilang ugnayan, pati na rin sa mga importanteng tao sa kanilang mga buhay.
