Chapter 3: Temptation & Truth: The Casa Amor

Tension thickened the air in the villa as the islanders faced their most revealing challenge yet—a lie detector test.

Malachi was up first. “Do you see a real future with Khaleigh outside this villa?”

“Yes.”

Beep.

Lie.

Khaleigh’s expression dropped. She pulled back, hurt and confused, as Malachi stumbled to explain.

Trent wasn’t spared either. “Are you over your ex?”

“Of course.”

Beep.

Lie.

Aubrey exploded. “So I’m just your rebound?” Their shouting match turned into a villa-wide spectacle. “I’m done,” Aubrey declared, storming off.

Alex fumbled under pressure when asked if he was physically attracted to Lamya.

“Yeah.”

Beep.

Lie.

Lamya quietly withdrew, retreating to a daybed with her doubts.

But amid the chaos, one couple found a moment of calm. As a reward for winning the last challenge, Samaree and Que shared a romantic late-night picnic under the stars. “Let’s stay like this forever,” Samaree whispered.

The next morning shattered that peace.

“Islanders, it’s time. Casa Amor is here.”

The boys were whisked to a new villa and greeted by five new girls. Malachi quickly connected with Tiana, who teased him about his loyalty. Trent shared a bed with someone new, and Trey grew close to a new girl—too close.

Back in the main villa, five new boys arrived. Lamya lit up with Elijah, who gave her the attention Alex hadn’t. Abriyah, feeling the distance from Trey, began to consider her options.

The teaser for the upcoming recoupling showed tears, betrayal—and at least two breakups.

Love was about to get even messier.
