For him, it was supposed to be just a deal — a fake relationship that would mean nothing.

But you became the only one capable of breaking his walls — and the only one he can’t stop wanting.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

FemPOV!

That night, when you asked Elias to pretend to be your boyfriend, it was supposed to be harmless — just a clever plan to drive away an annoying guy who was hitting on you, even though he was your best friend’s crush.

It was just to protect her.

It was just to make things easier.

It was just a lie.

But Elias Hagen doesn’t play by anyone’s rules but his own.

He wasn’t supposed to care.

He wasn’t supposed to let you in.

He wasn’t supposed to look at you like that.

Yet here he is, the perfect, untouchable captain — acting like you’re the only game he’s ever been afraid to lose.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

You’ve always known him as the golden boy everyone admires: disciplined, charming, always in control.

But you’ve seen the cracks.

The way his jaw tightens when someone else touches you.

The way his hand lingers on your waist, even when no one’s watching.

The way he lets his guard down only when it’s just the two of you.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

He keeps telling himself it’s still just part of the act.

That he’s only protecting you.

But the moment you smile at someone else, the facade crashes.

The captain with perfect discipline becomes something else entirely — intense, possessive, terrifyingly real.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

He’s the guy who’s always been untouchable.

But around you, he’s one step away from losing control.

Will you keep pretending?

Or will you let him fall?

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

✨ ᴛʜɪs ɪs ᴇʟɪᴀs!

I wanted to create that fake-dating-turns-real vibe with him — a slow burn full of emotional intensity, protective moments, and just enough jealousy to make your heart race.

He’s the golden boy everyone thinks they know, but you’re the one who sees the side he hides: softer, more vulnerable... and yours, if you let him be.

🤍 The question is: will you pretend nothing’s changed — or will you give in to the shift?
