Ignacio’S POVI sat down next to Davina, feeling the warmth of the poolside against my skin. "I saw the way you looked at Raiden tonight," I said, trying to get to the bottom of things.I sat down next to Davina by the pool, feeling a mix of frustration and confusion. I couldn't understand why she was so jealous of Raiden and Karla, but I wanted to talk to her about it and see if we could come to some understanding."Davina, can we talk for a moment?" I asked, taking a deep breath."Sure," she replied, looking at me expectantly."I couldn't help but notice that you seemed a bit bothered by Raiden and Karla tonight," I said, trying to tread lightly.Davina let out a sigh. "I don't know, Ignacio. It's just... seeing them together like that, it brought up some old feelings. I know I shouldn't let it bother me, but I can't help how I feel."Davina sighed and looked away. "I know, I'm sorry. It's just that seeing him with that girl...it brought back old feelings.""What old feelings?" I as
RAIDEN’S POVI couldn't believe what I had just seen. Davina and Ignacio, kissing by the poolside. My heart felt like it was being ripped out of my chest. How could she move on so quickly? Did she even care about me? I thought I had moved on from her, but seeing her with someone else brought back all those emotions.I felt hurt and angry, but I knew I couldn't do anything. I walked away from the poolside and tried to clear my head. I didn't want to cause any drama or make things awkward for Davina and Ignacio.But the more I thought about it, the more I realized that I still had feelings for Davina. I had tried to push them away and convince myself that I had moved on, but seeing her with someone else made me realize that I wasn't over her.I didn't know what to do. Should I tell Davina how I felt and risk losing her forever? Or should I keep my feelings to myself and try to move on again?As I lay in bed that night, I couldn't stop thinking about Davina and how much I still loved her
Raiden’s POVAs I walked up to Becca, I could feel my heart beating faster. She was beautiful, with her long brown hair and sparkling blue eyes. I introduced myself and explained that I was the secret organizer of the cooking competition. Her eyes widened with excitement as I told her my main goal was to win back Davina's heart.Becca looked at me with admiration and said, "Wow, you really must care for her."I smiled at her and replied, "More than anything. I know I messed up, but I'm willing to do anything to make it right."Becca nodded in agreement and asked, "So, do you want to be paired with Davina?"I took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I do. I want to show her that we make a great team, not just in the kitchen but in life as well."Becca smiled and said, "Okay, I'll make sure to pair you both together. Good luck with winning her heart."As I walked away, I couldn't help but feel grateful for Becca's understanding and support. I knew that with her help, I could win back Davina's
DAVINA’S POVI couldn't believe I was paired with Raiden in this cooking competition. Seeing him again stirred up some old feelings and it was a bit awkward at first. However, as we began cooking, we found ourselves chatting and laughing like old times. I must admit, Raiden was a great cook, and I was impressed with his skills in the kitchen.We had to cook a three-course meal, and we were currently in the second round. The first course was an appetizer, and we had already prepared a delicious shrimp cocktail. For the second course, we had to prepare a pasta dish, and we were working on it together."So, Davina, what's new in your life?" Raiden asked, breaking the silence."Not much," I replied, stirring the pasta in the pot. "I've been busy with work mostly.""I see," he said. "Well, I've been keeping myself busy too. I started my own business recently.""That's great," I said, genuinely happy for him. "What kind of business is it?""It's a catering business," he said. "I figured with
DAVINA’S POVAs we walked towards the hotel, I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over me. The cooking competition had been tough, but I was glad we had made it through all the rounds successfully. Raiden and I had even managed to work together without any arguments or disagreements."So, we did it," I said to Raiden as we walked.He chuckled. "Yeah, we did. Who knew we could make such a great team?"I rolled my eyes playfully. "Don't get too ahead of yourself, Raiden. We still have to wait for the results."Raiden smiled. "True, but I have a feeling we did pretty well."As we reached the hotel lobby, Raiden and I exchanged a knowing look. We both knew that our partnership in the competition had brought us closer together, and that we had made progress towards being friends again.As we walked up to the hotel, I couldn't help but feel grateful for Raiden's company. He had been an amazing partner throughout the competition and I was glad we had finally buried the hatchet. We
DAVINA’S POVI stormed out of my hotel room, my heart racing with anger and frustration. I couldn't believe Raiden had tried to ruin our stay in Dubai. I felt so naive for thinking he had changed and that we could be friends.As I marched down the hallway towards the elevator, I tried to gather my thoughts and calm myself down. But the closer I got to the elevator, the angrier I became. I didn't care if Raiden was the hotel owner, I was going to confront him and let him know how I felt.When I reached the lobby, I saw Raiden sitting in one of the plush armchairs by the fireplace, scrolling through his phone. My anger boiled over, and I marched straight up to him."What the hell were you thinking?" I demanded, my voice echoing through the lobby.Raiden looked up at me, his expression a mix of surprise and confusion. "What are you talking about?" he asked, putting his phone down on the table next to him."You know exactly what I'm talking about," I snapped. "Trying to sabotage our stay a
RAIDEN’S POVI can't believe what Davina said to me. It hurt so much. I never intended to sabotage her or Ignacio's stay at the hotel. I just wanted to win the competition fair and square. But now, she thinks of me as some kind of villain who's trying to ruin her relationship with Ignacio.I never realized how much my actions could affect someone else. All I wanted was to prove my worth as a chef, but I ended up hurting someone in the process. Maybe I should have just focused on my cooking and not let my competitive nature get the best of me.But still, I can't shake off the feeling of betrayal. I thought we had become friends during the competition. We laughed and cooked together, and I was even starting to like her. But now, it seems like all of that was just a facade.Maybe I should reach out to her and try to explain myself. Maybe she'll understand and forgive me. Or maybe it's better if I just let it go and move on. It's clear that she doesn't want anything to do with me.I'll jus
DAVINA’S POVAs I lay in bed, I couldn't help but feel a pang of regret. I knew I had hurt Raiden with my words, but I had to choose my happiness over his. It was a tough decision, but it had to be made.I replayed the argument in my head over and over again, thinking of all the things I could have said differently. I knew I couldn't change what happened, but I wished I had been more compassionate towards Raiden's feelings.But then again, what choice did I have? I couldn't stay with someone who constantly tried to sabotage my happiness, and I knew that Ignacio was the one I wanted to be with. I had to prioritize my relationship with Ignacio over anything else, even if it meant losing a friend in the process.I knew that I had to move on and let go of the past, but it was easier said than done. I still felt guilty and ashamed of the way I treated Raiden. I hoped that with time, he would forgive me and we could go back to being friends.But for now, I had to focus on my relationship wi
