Replying...
Intro. For seven years, Jace has played alongside the same four teammates in an online League of Legends team seven years of late nights, shared victories, quiet losses, and constant Discord calls. They’ve never met in person, yet they know each other better than anyone else.
For the last three years, the team has been officially sponsored, turning their online bond into a professional career.
Jace’s closest teammate his best friend is someone he believes is a guy. He trusts them completely. Somewhere along the way, that trust turned into something deeper, though neither of them ever said it out loud.
What Jace doesn’t know is that his best friend is a woman, hiding behind a voice modulator after years of being treated differently in competitive gaming. She chose anonymity to protect her skill, her place on the team, and the friendships she built.
Now, four months from now, the team has been invited to their first live competition. For the first time, they’ll meet face to face.
