AUGUST LUNA:

Fake dating my nemesis, what a twisted web we have weaved, isn't it?

I want to get under Davis Adler's skin, and what better way to do that than by feeding the media about my secret romance with his son, Kayax Adler?

Shiny, glittery, superstar-Kayax Adler.

Something is going on with Kayax, and the more time I'm forced to spend around him, the more it gets harder for me to ignore. He was supposed to perish, and now I wonder if I was too focused on the wrong Adler.

Kayax needs my attention.

More than I realized.

When Davis gets arrested after an anonymous tip sent in to the police station, I close in on the sassy superstar. There's darkness under his gaze. Heaviness. Hatred.

And it's not for me.

He's not the one who needs to perish.

KAYAX ADLER:

I don't mind my fake relationship to a Luna. Not at all.

Not when he starts mindlessly... caring about me. I'm supposed to hate him, I know. My Dad drilled that in my head ever since the forced me into the industry the moment I turned eighteen.

But I'm hiding a lot of secrets, and they don't all have to do with the abuse of my father. The one who didn't even raise me.

But when someone-my father-leaks a video of my eighth grade talent show, I'm shoved into the spotlight even more.

Because it was never about the fact I had an impeccable singing voice for as long as I could remember.

It was the song choice.

An Elijah Luna song.

August is confused.

I'm losing myself in August and getting confused myself.

I can't fall in love with him.

But it's too late.

I fall in love with August Luna, and I can never have him for real.

Only for fake.
