I never should’ve let Wren Perry get close—not with everything her last name cost mine.
She’s the governor’s daughter. Untouchable. Off-limits.
A walking reminder of everything I should hate.
She was a distraction I had no business touching. The kiss we shared? A cheap shot meant to rattle her brother, not leave a mark. But her lips hit harder than I expected, and the memory stuck like a bruise I can’t shake.
I’ve been off my game ever since. Now she’s back in my life, tied to my team in a way I can’t avoid.
I don’t trust her. I shouldn’t want her. But every time she looks at me, I forget why I ever let her go.
Our season’s already hanging by a thread. Stats don’t match the game footage. Players are faking injuries. And Wren’s dropping clues like she wants to help me find the truth without ever saying a word.
They’re waiting for us to fall apart. They think I’ve lost my edge. But I’ve never backed down from a fight.
This time, I’m not just playing for my team.
I’m playing for our season. For the truth.
And for the girl I should’ve hated… but never could.
