Falling In Love With A Rival Novels & Stories

"And I love you, Mi Cielo. More than anything." Adam stared at Sofia as she stood before him, his heart pounding at the realization of how much had changed between them. Once, they were supposed to be rivals, but fate had taken its course, and now, there was no turning back. She was his, his love, his future, the mother of his children. No force in the universe could take her away from him.

Now he had no idea what was coming next. Even he was able to marry his rival to get revenge on her but the marriage was making him pay a huge price, which was losing control of himself and falling in love with his rival came as a bonus point. He turned towards Ojaswi and glanced at her face. The face which he was so fascinated seeing for the first time had turned to a rival. That didn’t end there, slowly that rival feeling was fading away and new emotions were filling inside him but he was totally unaware about it.

"But I’m grateful—grateful that the person who grew up with me, who competed with me for first place, was you. Being with you is the luckiest thing that’s ever happened to me." Tears had already welled up in Lena's eyes. She blinked a few times and said, "Alaric, I feel the same way." Their love had taken root from the moment they met at six years old. It hadn’t arrived in a blaze of passion but had grown quietly, like a small seed planted deep within them, weaving itself into the fabric of their lives. To outsiders, they had spent years as rivals, constantly at odds.But it had always been a different kind of companionship. They had witnessed each other's highest peaks and deepest lows.

His words broke something inside of me, and my tears flowed even more furiously. I fell in love with Eric while we were studying. Back then, I only had eyes for him. However, my father was firmly against me of marrying that far. I was also the only daughter of the Don of the Elderons, a powerful mafia family. We fought constantly over this, and I decided to leave my family without looking back. I went to Rimo on my own to be with Eric. When Eric found out I had fallen out with my family because of him, he embraced me tightly and made me a promise. "I'll make you happy, Ayla. I'll never break your heart! You're the only wife I want!"

“What else does it make you then?” With one dissatisfied smirk, he only but shakes his head, “Definitely not lovers. You see, Trinity, while you were making your plans to take over daddy’s turf, I was by your side, and I was fucking loving you. But all I got was unbearable pain. So, ya, fuck, we are going to be rivals.”

“You two are progressing really fast, and so smoothly, too. It’s enough to make people envy and resent you because you don’t even have a single love rival.” His sister did have love rivals, but they were all very rational. Once they realized the person River loved was Rosalie, they gave up, knowing they could not compare to Rosalie. They also did not dare target Rosalie because they could not afford to provoke the Lafayettes, who stood behind her. Of course, Rosalie was not someone who could be easily bullied either. Her love rivals were sensible. After confessing to River and being rejected, they stepped back into their roles as business partners and moved on from River. They were truly str

Ignoring the pain shooting through my jaw, I sneered, “You’re the shameless one, Juniper Green. Weren’t you hopelessly in love with Sean in our previous life? Didn’t you hate me for standing between the two of you? Weren’t you the one who personally signed off on the agreement to donate my bone marrow and sent me to my death? So now that I’ve willingly stepped aside and fulfilled your dream of being together, why do you care who I’m with?” Juniper’s eyes widened in shock, and her hand froze on my chin. “You… You’ve been reborn as well?” she asked. I shoved her hand away and straightened up, my gaze sweeping over both her and Sean. “What? Are you surprised? If the two of you can be reborn, wh

She hurriedly swallowed back her words. "Cynthia? Why are you here?!" Iris frowned, a bit unhappy. "Why can't I be here?" Cynthia said coldly, looking at Iris in an unfriendly light. They were love rivals, after all. The two of them looked at each other for a long time. There seemed to be sparks between them. Neither of them were willing to take a step back! Cynthia knew that Iris was Leon's ex-girlfriend, and knew that Leon did not forget about Iris. She already saw Iris as her greatest love rival!

She hugged me and giggled. “Tell me all about him. I want to know everything.” She grinned. She was so happy for me. Both of us had struggled with the dating world the past two years, so I knew she saw either one of us getting any action as a victory for both of us. I sighed. There was no way I was getting out of this. At least I didn't have to tell her who it was. “Maddy...” I had no idea what to say next. Maddy, I'm sleeping with my biggest rival and the man who already broke my heart once. And I think I'm falling for him again. Because, I'm just that smart. Yeah. That would go over really well.

CHAPTER 6: ELLIOT'S POV The entire arrangement was completely absurd. I sat at the kitchen table with my laptop open, staring at video footage of our upcoming opponent’s defensive line, but I hadn't absorbed a single thing in twenty minutes. A surrender bet, a game where the first person to fall in love loses everything. It was ridiculous, childish, and completely insane. The very thought of falling in love with Adrian Kessaro, a loud, impulsive, hot-headed brute who had tormented me for fifteen years was mathematically impossible.
