The Game The Boss

【Two Male Leads + Power Dynamics + Slow Burn Romance + Corporate Warfare + 1v1】 "You came to kill me, didn't you?" "That was the original plan, but I've changed my mind." "Oh, what an honor that is." In game theory, when the sum of gains and losses among participants always equals "zero," it's known as a "zero-sum game," where cooperation between the parties is not possible. In the game of love, however, two initially opposing individuals repeatedly break the norms and find their way to each other. A mission sparks their complex relationship, with one falling first, and the other soon succumbing to the fall as well... *Dual-faced, affectionate mastermind ✖️ Undercover agent playing coy *1v1

Two people brought together by fate who was also destined to fight as enemies. To what extent can you take revenge if the person you want to take revenge on is the person who was also a part of your world.

The Horror Game invaded the world. Real players entered the game, and their every move would be broadcast live. My adopted son shoved me—an eighty-eight-year-old woman—straight into a deadly dungeon to save his own skin. One of the comments in the live stream predicted: [What? They’re tossing in such an elderly woman? No way she’s gonna survive the first night!] On the first night, a frost-bitten ghost exhaled icy breath in my face. I shrugged off my thick floral coat, feeling sorry for her. “You poor thing! You must be freezing. Listen to me and bundle up quickly!” The second night, a starving ghost lunged at me with blood dripping down his chin. I sniffed the air, then found a jar of pickled cabbage. “Look at how skinny you are! Come on, let me get you something hot to eat.” On the final day, the last surviving players tied me up, desperate to steal the one ticket to escape. However, before they could touch me, every ghost in the dungeon came storming out, cleavers and rolling pins in hand. “Touch her, and you’re dead meat!”

Kaya mo bang tiisin ang araw-araw na kasama ang lalaking pinaka-kinaiinisan mo? Yung tipong pagpasok mo pa lang sa opisina, madilim na mukha niya agad ang bubungad sa’yo? Yannie Sanchez, isang dedicated na secretary, ay labis na naiinis sa boss niyang si Xanthy Torres—ang seryoso, istrikto, at laging galit na CEO ng isang malaking kumpanya sa Asia. Para sa kanya, ito ang epitome ng "toxic boss" na palaging sumisira sa araw niya. Pero paano kung may dahilan pala sa likod ng kanyang ugali? Isang lihim ang matutuklasan ni Yannie—isang sikreto na magpapabago sa tingin niya kay Xanthy. Mula sa inis, unti-unti siyang nakaramdam ng awa at kagustuhang protektahan ito. Ngunit sa isang hindi inaasahang pangyayari, kinailangan niyang lumayo—hindi alam ni Xanthy na nagdadala siya ng kanilang anak. Pagkalipas ng limang taon, muling nagkrus ang kanilang mga landas. Sa pagkakataong ito, pipiliin pa rin ba niyang protektahan ito? O oras na para harapin ang nakaraan at isama siya sa hinaharap na para sa kanilang dalawa?

It was my third day working as an NPC cashier in a horror game when the supermarket got completely wrecked by players. They stormed in, smashing shelves, looting everything, setting fires, feeling real proud of themselves. "Told you the shopkeeper here was useless. Absolutely trash in all combat stats," one said. "Grab whatever you want. Once we're done, we'll just kill the owner," another chimed in. My mouth was gagged. I shook my head in terror. One of the players sneered. "Begging? That won't save you." No! That was not what I was trying to say! I was trying to tell them that today was the NPC internal shopping day. Three minutes from now, every single dungeon boss in the entire game would be rushing here to shop.

A beautiful shield to protect his empire. However, Ciara is not the frail doll he expected. She's stubborn, sharp-tongued, and ready to fight tooth and nail for her freedom. Unfortunately, the more she resists, the more Luca wants to own her.   The mansion may be her jail, but it is the fire between them that is most threatening. However, the lines get increasingly hazy the more she battles. She is enraged and at the same time drawn to his dominance, uneasy by his presence, and most terrified by the boiling tension between them. Ciara must make a choice in a realm of darkness where love is a weakness and loyalty is deadly. Either resist the Mafia boss's dangerous pull or give in to him entirely. *Updates every Monday, Wednesday and Friday*
