This novel contains explicit sexual content and depictions of violence. Reader discretion is strongly advised. **************** College rugby star Andre Williams only has one rule: win at any cost. It is how he stays the golden boy, how he keeps the Bay Tigers on top, and how he keeps his life clean enough to survive the season. Then Richard O’Reilly arrives. No one seems to know where he has come from, only that he is too good, too calm, and too threatening to Andre, who until now has always been the one on top. Richard is not just talented at rugby, he is mysterious and hard to read. He keeps his past sealed up tight because he is hiding something that could blow his life apart. Andre has built his whole life on control. The first time Richard appears, Andre realizes control is not as solid as he thought, and it could slip. It starts as a cutthroat rivalry. Then it turns into obsession. And the obsession grows into a hunger neither of them can explain or control.

RICHARD's POVAndre pulled his shirt off like it was nothing.No announcement, no pause in the work. He just grabbed the hem, pulled it over his head, tucked it into his waistband, and picked up the next crate.I kept my eyes on the box in front of me.Thirty seconds. Maybe less.He was at the upper shelf with his back to me and I could see everything and I was furious about it. The width of his shoulders. The way his back moved when he lifted, muscle pulling tight under brown skin, every line of him clean and deliberate like he trained specifically to look like this from behind. His waist was narrow and his joggers sat low and when he reached up to set the crate on the upper shelf his whole back stretched out and I looked away and looked back and looked away again.He stepped back and rolled his neck. Picked up the next item and crossed the corridor like he owned the floor under him. That was the thing. Every movement was smooth in a way that made me want to hit something. No wasted

Andre's POVRichard said nothing.He just looked at me with those flat gray eyes and the silence stretched out between us in the narrow corridor. My hand was already up between us. Not grabbing. Just there."Nothing to say?" I said.He shifted his weight. "You finished?""I asked you a question.""I heard you." He looked at my hand and then back at my face."Then answer it."He rolled his jaw. Looked at the wall beside me for a second like he was deciding something. Then back. "You spend a lot of time thinking about me, Williams.""I spend time on every opponent.""Is that what I am?"I held his eyes. "That's all you are."He took one step closer. The corridor was already narrow and the step made it smaller. "You pinned my face to your wall."My jaw tightened. "Excuse me?""Tanner talks." He said it easy, like it cost him nothing. "People talk. You printed a frame from the match footage and pinned it to your board." He tilted his head. "That's not opponent preparation. That's somethin

Richard's POVBriggs caught me before I left the facility.He was leaning against the wall outside the changing room with his clipboard under his arm and his coffee in his hand and the specific look he had when he had already decided what he wanted to say and was just waiting for the right moment to say it."Walk with me," he said.We went down the side corridor toward his office. He didn't go in. Just stopped at the door and turned to face me with the coffee still in his hand."Setup assignment today," he said. "You've seen the roster.""I've seen it.""So you know who you'll be working with.""I know."He looked at me for a moment. "How are you feeling about that?""Fine.""Richard.""Coach. I said fine."He set the coffee down on the windowsill beside him. "The benefit has press. Regional sports desk, two program photographers, and a human interest writer from the athletics journal." He paused. "The cameras would love a shot of both captains working side by side for a children's ho

RICHARD'S POVBriggs kept us back after practice.He stood at the center of the pitch with his clipboard under his arm and his hands in his jacket pockets and told us about the benefit. Children's hospital fundraiser, ten days out, formal dress, mandatory. Donors, cameras, program representatives from three different institutions. He didn't bury the part that mattered."The Bay Tigers will be there," he said. "Same event, same night. I need every single one of you to conduct yourselves accordingly. This is not a social event. It is a controlled environment with cameras and people who write checks to programs like ours." He looked across the group. "I need discipline. I need you representing something worth representing."Then he looked at me.Not long. A second, maybe less. But it was specific and everyone in earshot felt it even if they didn't look."Keep your edge where it belongs," he said.He dismissed us.I walked off the pitch and said nothing. I did everything right in the room

ANDRE'S POVI was halfway across the parking lot when I saw him.Richard. Parked across from the entrance, leaning against the hood of his car with his arms crossed and his breath showing in the cold morning air. Like he had nowhere better to be at six in the morning. Like he had planned this down to the minute, which he had.I stopped walking.He looked at me from across the lot and I looked back at him and neither of us moved. The facility light above the entrance hummed. The lot was empty except for my car and his and the cold and whatever was passing between us in the silence that I didn't have a clean name for.Then he got in his car.He pulled out of the lot without hurrying. No gesture, no words, nothing. Just the sound of the engine and the headlights sweeping across the concrete and then the street swallowing him.I stood there after the car was gone.Four seconds. Maybe five.Then I went inside.I changed and got on the pitch alone and started my warm-up and the thing just s

RICHARD'S POVMarcus saw the tires first.We had been inside maybe forty minutes. Post-practice run to grab food, nothing long. We came back out into the cold and Marcus was already three steps ahead of me when he stopped."What the—" He walked around to the back of the car and stood there staring. "Are you serious right now."I came around behind him and crouched down.Both rear tires. Clean cuts, not random slashes. Someone who knew what they were doing and took their time doing it.I already knew who.I stayed crouched for a moment and said nothing. Marcus was already talking, voice climbing, hands moving."It's Andre. It was obviously Andre. I saw the way he looked at you in there, I saw—""Marcus.""We should go right now, I know where they—""Marcus." I stood up. "Stop talking."He stopped. He looked at me. His jaw was still working but he held it."Going after Andre Williams the night before a practice week is exactly what he wants," I said. "He wants us distracted. He wants a
