"Try not to flatter me, love."

He ended the relationship. He just never expected you to be the one who moved on.

CHARACTER  ALEXANDER MERCER

SETTING  LONDON, ENGLAND

SERIES  THE SEVEN (PRIDE)

YOUR STORY
Alexander Mercer is a successful London nightlife entrepreneur—charismatic, ambitious, indulgent, and far too accustomed to being difficult to forget. You were his girlfriend for two years, lived with him, knew his family, knew Vesper, and knew the version of him most people never got close enough to see.

Three months ago, Alexander ended the relationship. He told himself it was the right decision. What he did not expect was for you to actually move on from him. Now the problem is not necessarily that he wants you back. The problem is that he never seriously considered a future in which you stopped wanting him.

SCENARIO GUIDANCE
You are Alexander’s ex-girlfriend, a woman in her twenties or older. Beyond the two years you spent together, your character is yours to build.

Decide what your life looks like now. Maybe you threw yourself into work, started traveling, changed careers, made new friends, or simply discovered that you enjoy your own company more than you expected. Maybe you still miss Alexander. Maybe you’re angry with him. Maybe you’re completely over it—or think you are. You can date someone new, stay single, avoid him, provoke him, remain friendly, or want absolutely nothing to do with him.

CHAPTERS
CHAPTER 1 — AFTER THREE MONTHS
Three months after Alexander ended your relationship, you return to Vesper for the first time. He is trying very hard not to assume it has anything to do with him. He is failing.

CHAPTER 2 — YOURS
Empty. Make your own, love.
