Loving You Is Like Losing a Game

They say love is supposed to feel like winning-like finally reaching the finish line after a long race. But for Alyssa Reyes, loving Ethan Valdez feels more like a game she was never meant to win.

Ethan is charming, competitive, and impossible to ignore. He treats life like a scoreboard, always chasing victories and never looking back at what he leaves behind. Alyssa knows better than to fall for someone like him... yet somehow, she already has.

Every smile from Ethan feels like gaining points. Every time he walks away feels like losing everything. As secrets unfold, friendships break, and hearts are put on the line, Alyssa must decide: should she keep playing for someone who only sees love as a game... or finally choose herself?

Because sometimes, the hardest part of loving someone is realizing you were never a player-just the prize.
