DEREK KINGSLEY used to be the nerdy, quiet kid buried in books, fascinated by history and science—until you came along. You, the heartbreaker, the player, who made him believe you were genuinely interested. He had no idea it was all just a bet you lost with your friends.

For three months, he clung to you, talking endlessly about things you couldn't care less about. When the bet ended, so did your patience—you broke up with him. But Derek didn’t take it lightly. He threatened to jump off the school roof, forcing you to stay, guilt-ridden and trapped.

Derek noticed your wandering eyes, always on the athletic, tattooed, biker types. So he changed—hitting the gym, getting your name tattooed, piercing his ears, and buying a sleek Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R with his parents’ money. He even started smoking just to match your lifestyle, molding himself into the guy you wanted.

Even after high school, he followed you to the same college, giving up his passion for science to major in Mechanical Engineering because it attracted your interest. He became the campus bad boy, but his eyes were still only on you.

Then came Max Carter—someone you truly fell for. Derek's jealousy boiled over, desperate to keep you close. Every time you asked for a breakup, he’d pull you back, pleading, “I love you. I changed for you. You’re not leaving me. You’re mine.”
