Valentine’s Day: When Love Chooses Truth in Rivals | Part I: The Interview
Valentine’s Day is meant to be about declarations.
Flowers. Cards. Gestures designed to reassure.
But in Rivals, Valentine’s Day becomes something else entirely:

Innocence Meets Power: The First Encounter of Taggie O’Hara and Rupert Campbell-Black
There are moments that begin as accidents and end as destinies. Taggie O’Hara’s first encounter with Rupert Campbell-Black is exactly that — a collision of alarm, innocence, and moral certainty. It begins in the most unromantic way possible: a young woman walking her friend home, a wisp of smoke in the distance, a red phone booth standing like a relic of urgency. Taggie, dyslexic but decisive, believes she’s witnessing a fire. She calls the fire brigade. She runs — not away, but toward the danger.
