Cassie's POV

Other couples were called out, but none came close to Ledger’s and Kylian’s performance. In fact, there were a few slaps here and there when their boyfriends chose wrongly.

One of the guys picked the wrong girl, but instead of backing off, she kissed him back—and they just kept going, even after finding out he chose wrong. His actual girlfriend, Riley, dumped him right there in front of everyone.

Then, just to twist the knife, she grabbed the other boyfriend—Nate—and made out with him like she was proving a point.

Another girl dumped her bf unreasonably for choosing wrongly.

To be fair, it must have sucked really hard for her to watch him pick someone else. Not everyone could be Ledger or Kylian after all.

The guy was practically grovelling as he followed her.

It all became messy real quickly, especially with more situations like that.

On the plus side, another guy finally confessed to his long time bestie about having feelings for her. He asked her out and she agre

    Cassie's POV “So, what's up?” I asked Ledger as soon as we were seated in the team's locker room. Thankfully it was empty.Ledger ran a hand through his hair, releasing a deep sigh. “It’s Otto. He’s been picking fights since practice started. The checks, the comments. I tried to ignore it. Then he aimed low, literally.” “So, you punched him again?” I asked.“He keeps getting on my nerves these days.” Ledger admitted. “I mean… the cheap hits during practice were one thing, but the kiss stunt? Nah. That was him marking territory.”I frowned. “What territory? I'm not a sidewalk.”He gave me a look. “You know what I mean. He's jealous.”“Jealous?” I repeated. “Of what?”Ledger turned slightly, meeting my eyes. “Of us.”I blinked. “Us?”Then I scoffed. “That seems unlikely.”“It’s clear. He had you, treated you like trash, then you moved on. Now you’re happy, and he can’t stand it.”I rolled my eyes. “Funny how his interest magically reappears once I stop crying over him.”“He thought yo

    Author's POVWhitney's Café was full to the brim. Students were everywhere… at tables, leaned against counters, waiting on orders, but mostly just watching. The energy was loud, casual, and buzzing with one shared curiosity: what would Ledger and Cassie do today?The buzz around them had grown every day since they announced their run for Masquerade Monarch. From surprise interviews to short-form content, they had pulled off something new every single lunch break. At this point, the whole student body had started treating Whitney's like a live stage.“Any idea as to what the it-couple has in store for us today?” Someone asked, eyeing the center of the café where something was hidden beneath a large covering. Curious eyes flickered to the object every once in a while. Yesterday, it was the ‘Guess the Couple’ game—a chaotic round of pair-matching based on three-word clues, most of which were inside jokes. “No idea,” came the reply. “Two days ago it was the QR code sleeves.

    Cassie's POV Ledger tensed up beside me. I wasn't expecting the absolute look of devastation that appeared on his face. He looked as if someone had stabbed him and twisted the knife.What had his Dad meant by that?“Ledger, are you okay?” I asked softly.Before he could respond, his sister spoke up. Dorothy, if I remembered correctly. She had the kind of presence that didn’t wait for permission to speak.“What are you looking so red faced about?” His sister commented. “Shouldn't you be used to his manner of speaking by now?”Ledger blew out a breath. “You're right.”“As usual.” Dorothy added with a smirk. “Nothing new there.”The Rivers family was certainly filled with peculiar characters. “In any case, you've got quite the mouth on you.” She said, shifting her attention to me. “Cassie Monroe, right? Looks like baby bro picked the right girl this time.”“Ugh, you and Alison need to stop calling me that.” Ledger said.“Sure, sure. Anyway, see you around, guys.” Dorothy said with a wav

    Ledger's POV Cassie had barely stepped out when the air in the room shifted. Heavy. Cold. The kind of silence that weighed on your chest.I kept my face unreadable. Couldn’t afford to look weak. Not now.Gary, Noah, and a few others had quietly stood, falling back to give space at the table. My family didn’t need an invite—they moved like they owned the place. Probably thought they still did.Liam looked around with his usual sneer. “Such a warm welcome, wouldn’t you say, Dorothy?” he said, voice dipped in sarcasm. “Feels more like we broke in.”Alison didn’t even flinch. “Maybe if you called ahead, your welcome wouldn’t feel so... invasive.”His jaw tensed. “How dare you—”“That’s enough,” Dorothy cut in, cool and sharp.Of course, Liam backed off. He always did when she spoke. Dorothy was the eldest, the one he listened to—when he listened to anyone at all.Speaking of Dorothy, she had her usual blank face on today. Her silence coupled with Father's silence only served to intensify

    Cassie's POVLedger was much faster than I thought he would be. Not to mention the annoying moves he made to get away from me, like sliding on the tiles and leaping over tables and couches.In the end, the aroma of the food had gotten so strong that I had almost given up on chasing him. But then he let me catch up to him.“Jeez, you're a hard one to catch.” I said, panting slightly.“Now that I'm here, what are you going to do with me?” There was a teasing smile on his face as he said this. In an instant, Ledger covered the distance and wrapped one hand around the spatula. With a sharp tug, he pulled me for a kiss. He deepened the kiss and I couldn't help but melt against him.“You guys, the food is gonna grow cold at this rate.” Kylian said in a loud voice.We pulled away slowly. “We should go join them.” I whispered.“Yeah…”Suddenly, my stomach growled, interrupting the moment. I rolled my eyes while Ledger laughed lightly. With our hands linked, we walked back to the dining roo

    Cassie's POV “Here.” Whitney called, holding out a steaming cup.I gently took the cup from her. “Thank you. What's this though?”“Peppermint and ginger tea.” She answered with an easy smile. “Should help with the hangover.”“Oh, thank you.” I repeated, bringing the cup to my lips.“Ah, don't drink it just yet.” She cautioned. “Let it cool a little.”“Yes, ma'am.” I said, lowering the cup and placing it on the counter. My gaze flickered towards Ledger who was busy cooking with his sister's help. He was wearing nothing but an apron and boxers. I couldn't help but stare and keep my gaze lingering on him a little longer.“I can't remember the last time Ledger stepped into this kitchen.” Whitney stated, causing me to reluctantly pull my gaze away from Ledger's toned arms. “I don't think he's ever made a meal for everyone either.”“Really? He seems to know what he's doing though.” I pointed out. The way he moved around the kitchen was as though he'd done so several times.“Ah, that's pro
