Should've Known Your Love Was A Game 소설 & 이야기

Sitting there, observing them, together, so free, so loved, ripped her insides apart. She moved back quickly, struggling with the fresh wave of tears. This was not her life. She was the one that had always dreamed of commitment, of love, of creating something with someone who would love her no matter what. But JM had taught her otherwise and had set her on a course to show her the truth that love was a game to him, a trick, an ephemeral emotion which could be swapped out at any moment when anything else shiny came along.

LILY’S POV After what had just happened, I was shaking, my legs were weak, and I was wet. I felt bad that I had let it get this far again. The game—his game—had started again. The one he used to play with me years ago. I swore I would never fall in love with that person again. Ten games. Ten twisted games he loved to play. They came rushing back into my mind like a dark shadow I couldn’t shake. These are the ten games:

She was the only friend I had, yet she ignored my calls every time I tried to reach out to her. I thought of calling her sister Emma, but it would be a waste because she must have told my sister about our misunderstanding. I was helpless. Tears summoned in my eyes. I thought he actually loved me. Is this what they say about men—playing the game, making you believe they’re different, only to end up like the others? I should’ve known better. I promised myself I would focus on me and leave love for those it was meant for. Yet I let him in.

he said casually, leaning back. “What do you mean nobody knows? You claim to know everything!” Ryan took a sip of whiskey, eyes glinting. “Yes, I know everything… except that. Only Trunks knows who’s behind him. That person owns the game—moves every pawn. We don’t even know if it’s a man or woman, but rumors say he’s fearless, cruel, and terrifyingly strategic. He’s the reason H and Sash became twice as powerful after Mr. and Mrs. Choi died.”

*"Get some rest, Auntie. Don't stress over me." I hung up before she could ask another question. The silence in the car was immediate and thick. My reflection stared back at me from the dark glass of the windshield — face tight, eyes carrying everything I hadn't said out loud. I looked at myself for a long moment, the way you rarely let yourself do. *"Stop crying over something you don't have the right to,"* I told my reflection quietly. My voice was almost gentle. Almost kind. *"Love is a game you stopped playing a long time ago. You accepted that. It doesn't belong to you — it never did."*

I released the grip and exhaled a long drag from the smoke. He chuckled in amusement. His eyes never leaving and finally said, “perfect smoke on a bad weather with perfect partner.” Seeing this man I remembered the fatal flaw my grandma created. My grandma's will would unlock when I get married. I don't need an empire, but I do need a back up plan. In case the empire I left for them to enjoy, they suddenly decided to come onto me. To destroy me. Then I asked slowly, “Hey are you married?”

Jani and I aren't together anymore. I swallowed a lump in my throat. I should have know something wasn't right. He couldn't just have come here for no reason. Because his girlfriend had dumped him, his plan was to crawl back to me? So stupid. This was one of the reasons I never believed in love. Love was just a kind of game thing. I cleared my throat. "That's not my problem. Whether or not you like any woman, I care less. It's not like there's anything between us."

If all of it was indeed seen in Ren, she can conclude that she is really in love with the guy she used to hate. Ashley was more troubled by it than the game. She was not used to getting in those things. All she can do was analyze every player's gameplay so how can she analyze someone who likes her? Does it include a counter? A counter for not falling into? She sighs messing her hair on having the hard day of her life. Love is much difficult than gaming. She doesn't want it.

" Why did you do it?" " Because I love her!! Okay? I did it because I loved her.... And I didn't know what else to do. It was supposed to be just an ordinary bet but suddenly I had feelings and it couldn't just work out...." " Wait a minute.... You're in love, with Natalie?" " Well you heard me. " " And does Natalie know about this?" I asked. " She doesn't need to know about that..." He muttered. I snickered.

He loved games and everything else wasn’t necessary for him. After years of parting from the game world he made a nice come back in the industry and conquered the world of players again. The years didn’t stained his skills and he was still very good. True, the chair at the top was nice and comfy however, for him it wasn’t enough. The thrill had fade and everything fell apart. He wasn’t satisfied. Not until then he came across the game ‘Arc of SHION’ … In the vast forest of Lunu, prospers a thick bamboo forest. The spring had come and the leaves were lush green. Many birds sang in the wind as the bamboos gently shook in the air leaving a trail of falling leaves in the air.
