"I don't care about anything in this world Ashley, all I want is you! I crave and breathe for you," Hayden's voice came out raspy while Ashley's lustful eyes bored into it. "We shouldn't be doing this," she muttered shaking her head while Hayden pulled her closer to his body, as if it were anyway possible. "Or we should have started this a long time ago," he breathed in her ear which caused a chill down between her slippery thighs. For years, they've clashed over everything – court dominance, classroom grades, even the last slice of pizza. Every look is a challenge, every word a jab, fueling a mutual loathing that feels almost... physical. He's the infuriatingly arrogant, devastatingly ripped athlete she loves to hate. She's the sharp-tongued, fiery rival he can't stand... or stop watching. Then her life implodes, a messy heartbreak leaving her vulnerable. And Hayden, of all people, is there. Unexpectedly protective. Dangerously tempting. One wild night, fueled by chaos and undeniable, explosive tension, the line they've danced around their entire lives shatters. Their rivalry combusts into stolen moments, secret touches, and whispered challenges that burn hotter than any insult they ever traded. But things weren't as Ashley thought it was, Hayden wasn't just an athlete, he was into something deeper, something consuming but the problem was... she was too deep in to leave, his touches had her caged just in place. Was this worth it? Or was she wasting her time with a man who was meant to be doomed?
