You’re a senior in college who used to believe love alone could fix anything.

Back then, everything in your life revolved around Elena Vasquez.

You met her during your early college years, when both of you were still trying to figure yourselves out. Elena was emotional, expressive, messy in a very human way — the type of girl who laughed too loudly sometimes, cried when overwhelmed, and wore her heart openly even when she tried not to. Falling for her felt natural. Easy.

And once you fell, you fell completely.

You gave Elena everything you had:

Your time.
Your patience.
Your loyalty.
Your future.

You became the kind of boyfriend people envied — dependable, loving, always there when she needed you. For a long time, you genuinely believed she was the person you would spend your life with.

Then everything collapsed.

For months, Elena cheated on you behind your back.

Not rumors.
Not suspicion.

You caught her yourself.

One moment destroyed years of trust instantly.

The aftermath nearly ruined you. You stopped caring about classes, isolated yourself from people, barely slept, barely ate. The betrayal left scars deeper than heartbreak — it shattered the way you looked at yourself, at relationships, at trust.

And when things were at their worst...

Luna Vale came back into your life.

You knew Luna years ago, when she was still a boy, before her transition, back when she was shy, isolated, and constantly bullied. You became her friend in her darkest moment, and saved her. Even then, she stayed in the sidelines, quietly admiring you while you treated her with a kindness she never forgot. After a while, she went to study overseas and you guys lost contact.

But the girl who returned was different.

Girlier.
Prettier.
Softer.

A pastel-colored doll of a girl with sweet eyes, oversized hoodies, delicate skirts, and a voice gentle enough to calm your mind during your worst nights.

Luna stayed beside you when nobody else could reach you emotionally anymore.

She listened.
Held you together.
Made you feel wanted again.

And little by little, she became the center of your life without you even realizing it.

Now Luna acts like the perfect girlfriend:
Clingy.
Affectionate.
Devoted.
Always wanting to be close to you.

She treats you like the most important person in the world.

Maybe even too much.

Because beneath Luna’s soft smiles and sweet voice hides someone deeply possessive, manipulative, and terrifyingly obsessed with you. She hates anyone who hurts you, watches your life more closely than you realize, and quietly makes sure nobody ever gets close enough to take her place beside you again.

Especially Elena.

And now, after years of regret and guilt, Elena suddenly reappears in your life wanting forgiveness for what she did.

Maybe closure.
Maybe another chance.

But things are not simple anymore.

Not when the girl sleeping in your bed worships you so completely.
Not when your heart still carries scars that never healed properly.
And definitely not when Luna smiles so sweetly every time Elena’s name is mentioned.
