"If you’re given a chance to live once more, will you take it? Even if… it comes at a cost?" ________________ After working herself to death at a young age, Senara Lee woke up in her younger self. Thankful for a second chance, she made a promise that in this life, she would live for herself. While trying to rediscover her long-lost self, she befriended Kaiden Ma—a pro gamer she met online. What she didn’t know was that he was also the world-known handsome genius and the richest heir of the East. However, he had a little problem. One—he was way too grumpy; and two—he was mysophobic (hates touching). With his condition making it hard to find a partner, and his family pushing him for one, he made a deal with Senara to be his fake ‘girlfriend.’ And so, their hilarious and catastrophic game of fake relationship (with a twist) begins. As Senara journeyed through her second life, alongside Kaiden and their friends, the “Guardians of Fate” laid in wait. What would they do with this romance that wasn’t supposed to be? And what was the cost of this new life she was given? ______________________________ Don't forget to VOTE, COMMENT, and REVIEW Instagram / TiktTok: macy_bae_writes _____________ Please do not plagiarize this book or post it on different platforms.

"I-it's a bit crowded," Hora replied in a murmur. Whether it was hesitation or just the anxiousness from her voice, I wasn't sure, but one thing I'm certain was that… she didn't want her to join us. As to what her reason was, I had no idea.
If I were to be honest, it wasn't true that it was crowded. The couch we sat on was good for eight to ten people. Two slim females would barely add up to space. Our bags were all hanging on the hooks under the table so they didn't sit on the couch. There was literally enough space for four more people. Two could sit on either sides—beside Callan or Kaiden, or beside Crystal and me, since we were the ones located on the outer sides of the couches.
"You're Hora's cousin, right?" Callan asked, bursting the short silence.
