LOGINMy boyfriend cheated. So I made his father mine. I didn’t get into gaming for the fame. I did it to survive. Growing up in a cramped apartment with a worn-out mom and a string of violent men, League of Legends was the only escape I had. After she died, it became all I had left. Now I’m the star ADC at Blackwood University, playing for a national title and the future I clawed my way toward. I should’ve seen it coming—my captain boyfriend screwing my best friend. I didn’t cry. I plotted. And Marcus Cross, our ruthless coach and my ex’s father, is the perfect weapon. What starts as revenge turns into something else. Something darker breaking rules . Is it still revenge if it feels this good?

"Yes, Dylan," I grinned, ignoring my friend's mocking face.
"Babe, I told you. This is just for the championship." I rolled my eyes.
Louise and I were walking to practice, and my boyfriend was whining about it as usual.
"Babe, we haven't had a proper date in a month," Dylan whined in my ear.
"I've told you, Dylan. After nationals, after the championship," I said. "I'm all yours. You know how important this is to me."
He sighed tiredly, knowing I had won this round. "All right, fine, have fun. You're at practice till 6 PM, right?"
"As always. Bye, baby." I hung up the call to my teammate's hiss.
"Bye, baby," she said, rolling her eyes.
"Hey, just because you can't bag a man doesn't mean I have to suffer with you," I threw my bag on the couch, jumping over to settle down. She shook her head and turned around, settling down next to me.
"When the guy is Dylan Cross," Louise said as she dipped her hand into her bag and brought out our pads, "thanks, I'll pass."
"Shut up."
She grinned at me. "Crazy that he's whining during practice time."
Yes, it was crazy. If anyone should understand how important gaming was to me, it should be my boyfriend.
"He just misses how close we were," I said, defending him instead.
"Less talking, more pressing, girls," our coach, Marcus Cross yelled, coming out from a room.
"Hi, Coach," I greeted him. "We didn't know you were in."
He grunted, grabbing a drink. "I'm not. You guys have fun."
"Now, Marcus," Louise said with a malicious glint in her eye as he left the room, "I could get under him anytime he wants."
"Eww, Louise," I laugh. "He's like what? Ancient?"
"I think you mean Greek God status hot."
"I do not want to be having such thoughts about my coach. Can we focus on the game, please?" I said pulling up the latest Call of Duty Action series.
Soon after, a few of our teammates joined us in the house while I played against each and everyone of them.
"Fuck, Sera," Louise groaned. "Give someone else a chance to shine," she said as I shot another player in the head.
"Never," I laughed, feeling the adrenaline pump through my veins.
Gaming is my life. At ten I got my first playstation from my mother's boyfriend. I was so ecstatic upon receiving the gift.
"Happy birthday, Seraphina," the man crouched down. I didn't know his name, and he was probably the sixth she had introduced to me. I stopped learning their names after the third one. "Here," he said, dragging out a big box from behind him. "I got you something."
I clutched my only Barbie tightly. "What is that?" I asked him. "It's called a PlayStation. You can connect to people from around the world and play games with them," he said. My mama stood behind him, smoking a joint. "I told you she wouldn't know what it was."
I stared at the big blue box that was almost as tall as I was. "Thank you," I said, unwrapping it. A PlayStation.
"Here, I'll set it up for you," he carried the box and assembled it, teaching me my very first game that day.
That was the best day of my childhood. He didn't last—my mother cheated on him a few weeks later. I still had my gift.
"Okay, girls, it's 5 PM," Marcus came into the room. "I need you here bright and early, especially you, Sera. Go rest, catch your breath, and have fun tonight."
A series of awws and protests filled the room, but I was grateful for the respite. At least I could spend the evening with Dylan.
I walked back to my dormitory, remembering how sad the day I got here was.
"I got the scholarship," I shout, looking at the screen of my laptop again. It was written boldly, I got in. I let out a loud whoop, grabbing my phone to call my mom. She would be working at her third job.
"Hello, Mom," I said. "Hello, are you Seraphina?" It wasn't my mother. "Yes, this is she."
"I am so sorry, there has been an accident."
That day, I both gained my passion and lost the only person I loved. My mama may have lived recklessly, but she tried her best for me. She worked all the time when she wasn't dating a loser.
It was sad she left before she could see me here now. After spending three years at Blackwood University, I finally rose in ranks to join the senior team. Now I was the star of ADC, the champion in college.
"One more step, Mom," I whispered, kissing her necklace I always had on for good luck.
As I turned around the corner to my dormitory, I spotted Dylan's car. "Aww, he came to see me," I said, opening the door to my room.
I lived alone with my bestie, Mika. She was a gamer like I was, and we both enjoyed the benefits of being amongst the highest gamers in the country. We barely had classes, and we shared a dorm together instead of four people as the school rules stipulated.
I walked inside the house, dropping my bags on the table. Mika had gone away for the week—she said she had a family emergency. Just as I turned into the corridor leading to our rooms, I heard voices coming from Mika's room. Was she back early, I wondered?
I placed a hand on the handle, ready to push it open before the voice became clearer to me.
"I mean, who does she think she is?" Dylan said, snorting. "I'm just with her because I need to be seen with the best, and unfortunately, she was ranked number one last year."
Dylan?
"Please, everyone loves Sera. 'Oh Sera, you won!' 'Oh Sera, we haven't seen a play as good as yours!'" Mika mocked.
What exactly was I hearing right now?
"You know the worst part? She can't play for shit. The only thing she's actually talented at is giving me blowjobs, which I'm sure she learned from her whore of a mother," Dylan spat out venomously.
I covered my mouth quickly, stifling the low scream that threatened to come out. They couldn't know I was here listening.
"Oh, baby," Mika moaned. "Do you promise you're going to leave her?"
"Yes, I'm done. She can fuck off," Dylan answered. "Plus, I'd rather be with you."
My boyfriend and my best friend?
Soon, moans filtered through the crack in the door. I stood there frozen, hearing my boyfriend have sex with Mika, the sounds of their flesh smacked against each other.
I pulled my phone out of my pocket, ready to video whatever the fuck they were up to.
Dylan had Mika in doggy style, pounding behind her roughly. I walked into the room, my camera fixed on them both while they were lost in passion.
"Wow, Mika. I didn't know you were pretending to enjoy his small dick too," I snapped.
Mika let out a scream, jumping away from Dylan. "Oh, no you don't. Please, continue fucking my boyfriend. Entertain me, bitch."
Dylan raised his hands up. "It's not what you think, Sera."
I turned the camera to him. "And you, fuck you. I managed to suck your wrinkled-as-fuck, shriveled-up, dried penis, and you have the guts to call my mother a whore? Fuck you, Dylan."
Tears streamed down Mika's face. "Sera, please listen to me."
I put my hand up in her face. "No, I heard all you had to say. It was quite revealing."
I sucked in a breath I didn't realize I'd held back.
"I need to get out of here. Stupid fools." I slammed the door behind me and grabbed my bag.
Tears streamed down my face in torrents, and an ache in my chest grew stronger with each step away from them.
My boyfriend and my best friend.
CHAPTER SIXTY-SEVENCHLOE’S POV“Thank you for your order,” I smiled at the young girl, handing over her cup of matcha and a croissant. She gave me a tip and left, allowing the young gentleman to step in front. “Hello.”“Hi,” I smiled. “What do you want this morning?”“A cup of iced coffee, with some squashed pineapples and some blackberry pie,” he replied, his voice cool. He leaned across the counter and I could see deep into his blue eyes. “Do you mind bringing it over to my table?”“No at all,” I breathed, my voice cracking. “I'll get all that sorted out.”He gave me a wink and walked away, going to sit down at the back. “Girl,” my colleague sauntered up to me. “If you don't get your man, I'll go after him myself,” she laughed.I rolled my eyes and tossed my hair up.into a high bun. “Yeah, my man that came to order a whole tray of complicated food.”I made his order, carefully placing them all on a tray. He was still there when I was done, typing furiously on his phone.“Here it i
CHAPTER SIXTY-SIXSERA’S POV“Just like that,” Klein said, giddy. “Yeah, yeah, that's it. That's it, kick his ass.”I spun my avatar, crashing on the online opponent I was playing. “Let fucking gooo,” Klein screamed, dancing around the room.“Language, Coach,” I laughed, signing out. Klein rolled his eyes. “Sorry, I keep forgetting I am a coach,” he grinned. “That was amazing.”I had to agree. The past few weeks has been amazing training under him. His coaching style was way better than Agatha, focusing on building individual mechanics and team communication, rather than barking out commands and expecting everyone to cower as he said it. He actually cared and listened to his team members, and he was a quick learner too, fast to spot someone dealing with something.It's late at night, but I felt so relaxed with him alone. We choose to train at the boot camp, away from everyone else.“This was fun,” I grinned, standing up to stretch. I felt his eyes on my body, but my cardigan covered e
CHAPTER SIXTY-FIVENarrator’s POV“Gather close, students,” Dean Jacqueline’s voice echoed across the sports department building. “Can we all take a seat?”The e-sports students troped into the hall, whisperings rising amongst themselves. Dean Jacqueline sighted Seraphina, and waved at her, before turning back to them.“Can we have silence please?”The entire hall grew silent.“First of all,” Dean Jacqueline said, “I want to apologize for a lot of changes that have happened this year in the department. Agatha's case is a sad one, and until the investigation is over, I am afraid she will not be coming back.” She sighed.“Marcus was our most reliable coach, but due to the nature of his injuries, he had to retire,” Jacqueline continued. “I know you all have been training by yourself for the last three weeks since Agatha has been gone, and I must say I am really impressed,” her lips tugged up into a smile. “I mean, every single match has been won. A huge round of applause please.”The stu
CHAPTER SIXTY-FOURSERA’S POV "I cannot believe Agatha got suspended,” Romeo said for what seemed like the millionth time. “Do you have any idea what she did?”“Now a clue,” I sighed, opening the door leading to our department. “It is kind of sad though, championships are so close.”The dean had announced Agatha’s suspension to us yesterday. My teammates had groaned and sighed, but I stepped up to the challenge. “Until we get an interim coach, we have to train ourselves,” I told them.This morning, everyone was meant to be here by ten a.m. “Do we have any scrims this week?”“I think we have a couple,” Romeo replied. My teammates strolled into the room, greeting as they walked past. ‘Hey,” Louise said, walking up to us. “What is the game plan?”I bit my lips. “I think we should do things differently today,” I answered. “You remember how coach Marcus used to have us train?”Romeo nodded. “Identify the other team's tactics from watching one of their games, and playing against each other
