The Boy Behind My Spotlight

They say my life is perfect.

That's what the world sees-bright lights, flashing cameras, award-winning films, and a name that always trends whenever I appear on screen.

But what they don't see is how lonely it gets when the cameras stop rolling.

I'm Elarisse Vale, and I've spent years trying to prove that I don't need anyone to define my success. Not my billionaire parents. Not the industry. Not even the people who doubt me.

But somewhere between fake smiles, scripted love stories, and a career that refuses to slow down...

I start to lose track of what's real anymore.

And just when I think I've figured out exactly what I want-life introduces me to someone who was never part of the plan.

Someone I was never supposed to notice.

Someone who changes everything... without even trying.
