The Last Chess Game
Adventure Retired chess grandmaster Victor Langley, once considered the greatest strategist of his time, has lived in quiet isolation for over a decade after his sudden retirement. One evening, an invitation arrives-an elegant envelope with no return address, containing a single line:
"Your final game awaits. Midnight. Blackwood Manor."
Curious yet wary, Victor travels to the secluded estate, where he finds six other grandmasters, each legends in their own right, waiting at a long table. The host remains unseen, but a grand chessboard sits before them, each piece set in an unfinished game from their pasts-games they had lost or abandoned.
As the night unfolds, it becomes clear that this is no ordinary chess match. One by one, players begin disappearing-and each move on the board seems to dictate their fate. The game is not just about winning; it's about survival. And Victor realizes that someone among them is not who they claim to be.

On the night she hoped for acceptance, Jason didn't just break her heart-he shattered her world.

Now, two men are vying for her attention:
* Jason Thorne, the penitent CEO desperate to atone for his monumental mistake and reclaim the woman he ruthlessly threw away.
