LOGINSynopsis: “Some mistakes ruin you. Others reveal who you really are.” Ava has always played it safe, witty, observant, and content staying in the shadow of her bold, magnetic best friend, Sophia. But all of that changes the night she crosses a line she can never uncross with Sophia’s twin brother, Mason. Mason is everything Ava shouldn’t want: arrogant, reckless, devastatingly charming and completely off-limits. Known for breaking hearts without remorse, Mason lives for the thrill, never the aftermath. But when a stolen kiss turns into a secret affair, Ava is pulled into a dangerous game of love, lust, and lies that threatens to shatter the only relationships she’s ever trusted. As Ava falls deeper, she uncovers a side of Mason no one else sees haunted, vulnerable, desperate to feel something real. But when an unplanned pregnancy sends her spiraling, Ava makes a devastating choice… one that will come back to haunt her. Now, with secrets unraveling and emotions running raw, Ava must face the wrath of betrayal not just from Mason, but from Sophia too. Can love survive when trust is shattered? Or will the truth destroy them all? In a story filled with temptation, betrayal, and heart-stopping twists, Ava must decide: is forbidden love worth the scars it leaves behind?

No. Not Sophia.The words unfurled, raw and intimate, for the entire school to see.“October 12th:”*It’s Ava’s birthday party tonight. She’s so excited. She always gets what she wants. Duke, too. He looks at her like she’s the only star in the sky. I wish someone looked at me like that. I wish I had her life. Her easy smile. Her perfect hair. Her… everything.“September 20th:”Duke walked past me today. He barely saw me. He was laughing with Ava. They look so good together. It hurts. It hurts so much. Why can’t I be her? Why can’t I have him?September 5th:“I hate her. I hate her for having everything I want. I hate her for having Duke even though she isn’t interested. I hate her for being Ava.”The words burned, each syllable a brand. Ava felt a fresh wave of nausea. The air in the room grew thick, suffocating. Whispers erupted, louder this time, laced with pity and a cruel satisfaction.“Sop
“You think?” Ava whispered, a bitter laugh escaping her lips. Her eyes darted around the room. The party was over. The festive atmosphere had curdled into a thick, uncomfortable tension. Students were starting to disperse, some heading for the door, others lingering, whispering behind cupped hands.“We need to find out who did this,” Mason stated, his voice hard, determined. “And we need to talk to Sophia.”“She won’t listen,” Ava said, shaking her head. “Not now. She’s too hurt.” She felt a fresh wave of despair. Her best friend. The person she trusted most. Now she hates her.“She’ll come around,” Stephan said, though his voice lacked conviction. “Eventually. But first, you two need to get out of here. This… this is too much.” He gestured to the dwindling, but still curious, crowd.“He’s right,” Luke added, stepping closer. “Go. We’ll try to calm things down here. Tell people to give it a rest.”Ava looked at Mason, her eyes pleading. She wanted to disappear, to vanish into
“I didn’t do anything to you, Sophia,” Ava said, her voice rising, a flash of her own pain breaking through. “This wasn’t some plan. It was… it was unexpected. We didn’t mean for you to find out like this.”“Unexpected?” Sophia’s laugh was a harsh, broken sound. “You call kissing my brother unexpected? While I’m upstairs, setting up your birthday cake?”Her words hit Ava like a physical blow. The cake. The party. Her birthday. All of it tainted, ruined.“Sophia, please listen,” Ava pleaded, her voice cracking. “We… we didn’t know how to tell you. We were scared.”“Scared?” Sophia’s eyes blazed. “Scared of what? That I’d be happy for you? That I’d understand? Or scared that I’d be disgusted that my best friend and my brother were sneaking around behind my back?”The word ‘disgusted’ hung in the air, a poisonous cloud. Ava felt her face flush, tears blurring her vision.“Sophia, you’re being unfair,” Luke said, stepping closer, his voice calm but firm. “They’re clearly upset.
The image filled the display: Ava and Mason, locked in a kiss, the soft glow of her bedroom lamp illuminating their intertwined forms. It was clear, undeniable. Her heart plummeted. Below the picture, stark white text burned into her vision:“So our good girl Ava isn’t really who she is. Does this mean she’s having a secret affair with Mason, her best friend’s brother, or is it just the influence of the alcohol from this party?”The words twisted in her gut, venomous and cruel. “Best friend’s brother.”The anonymous sender knew. Knew everything.“No,” Ava whispered, the sound barely audible above the ringing in her ears. Her fingers trembled, reaching for Mason’s phone, but then recoiled. The image seared itself into her mind.A girl near them, her face pale, stared at Ava. “Ava is this real?”Ava didn’t answer. She couldn’t. Her throat felt tight, constricted.
