End Game
Zaire Gibson spent years hating Sebastian Burkhart - the arrogant, charming captain of Milton Academy's football team. Their rivalry has always been explosive, from locker-room brawls to public fights that nearly got them suspended. But beneath Zaire's fury lies something he refuses to name... something that scares him more than losing a game.
Sebastian, on the other hand, knows exactly what he feels, and it's killing him.
He's been in love with Zaire for years, forced to hide it behind smirks, taunts, and bruised knuckles. Every fight, every insult, every stolen glance only pulls him deeper into the boy who will never love him back.
But when one charged night tears the line between enemies and something else entirely, both boys are forced to face the truth: maybe what's between them was never hate at all.

Chapter: Chapter 73: Don't look awaySEBASTIAN'S POVThe first and the last time I had my ass ate, I was sixteen.It was also the day I bottomed for the first time. I was messing with a guy in my football team back in Manchester. His name was Mason Gallagher. He was a year older, and the team's captain. I was just the new guy, having just transferred from St Jose High to that school toward the end of that year. Most of the time he was the one who bottomed but we decided to switch that night at his house. I fucked him first and then he took over. The part I actually enjoyed was when he ate me out. It felt nice, I couldn't lie. But the problem came when he fucked me.At no point did that feel good for me. I tried waiting it out, thinking maybe it would get better. Maybe the pleasure would kick in. But that never happened. I ended up telling him to stop because there was no point. He was just hurting me.I remember, my body didn't take that intrusion very well either. For like five days, I had a constant pain in my lowe

Chapter: Chapter 72: Toy soldierSEBASTIAN'S POVZaire was such a problematic spoiled brat.I swear to god.I was leaning against the headboard with my arm over my eyes, trying my best not to lose my mind.So, when Zaire pushed his hand inside my pajama bottoms earlier, I was thinking damn, maybe we could do something quick before my parents got back from their date or whatever it was called for people who were not together. Maggie was out with her friends too, so it was just the two of us in the house.Obviously I got excited, but was brought down to earth real quick when I realized what he was doing.This guy's intentions weren't what I thought.. He just wanted to play with my dick.And not in "I wanna turn you on" kind of a way. No, he was literally playing with it like it was a damn toy while leaning into my chest, casually going through my dms like nothing was happening.I couldn't believe it.Who does that?Despite my frustration, I silently endured his unnecessary torture because... well he was my spoilt brat.

Chapter: Chapter 71: Human AddictionZAIRE'S POVTwo hours.Two whole freaking hours.That was how long I had been lying on Sebastian's bed, tossing and turning while he sat at his desk studying.He had a chemistry test on Monday, so I understood that he needed to study. I really did.At first, I thought I could wait for him to finish. But now? I was bored out of my damn mind. I didn't come all the way here just to stare at the ceiling while my boyfriend studied.I missed him like crazy.I came here because I wanted to see him. I wanted his attention. I wanted to be wrapped in his arms and showered with love and affection. Instead, I had spent the last two hours watching him read the same damn textbook."Seb?" I called.He didn't answer.I frowned. "Seeeebbbb!""What, Zai?" His voice sounded annoyed.I sat up and glared at him.Fuck was he frustrated with me for?"You know, you should have just told me not to come here if you weren't going to pay attention to me."Sebastian finally looked away from his book.

Chapter: Chapter 70: Cater 2 UREGGIES'S POVThe knock on the door made me jump up from the couch.I rubbed my sweaty palms down my sweatpants, my heart pounding unsteadily in my chest.For the first time in my life, I, Reggie G, was nervous about having sex.What an absolute shocker.Not that I was full of myself. Okay, maybe I was. At least to a certain extent, but that was beside the point.The thing was, I had always been confident when it came to sex because I knew what I was doing, and I knew I was fucking good at it. My bedroom skills had never let me down, so I had no reason to doubt myself. Why would I?One, I had a big dick. Check.Two, I knew how to fuck. Check.Three, I was a good-looking dude. Check.So, as far as I was concerned, I had everything a guy could possibly need to make someone enjoy themselves. So, what the hell was my problem?It wasn't even like I had never slept with Will before. Hell, I had lost count of how many times we had fucked. We had done it enough times for me to know exactly

Chapter: Chapter 69: Reggie the JerkREGGIE'S POVAll had been doing lately was drowning myself in booze and burying myself in every pussy that was easy enough to welcome me in.The fact that I didn't have school gave me the perfect excuse to do whatever the hell I wanted, at least until I had to go back next week.I was only nineteen, but the amount of people I had slept with was simply incredible. Not that it was something I was proud of, but sometimes, you had to do whatever it took to keep yourself from going insane, no matter how unconventional your methods may be.If it worked, then why the hell not?I threw my head back, a guttural groan escaping my throat as I thrashed my dick harder into Nicole's wet pussy. She moaned loudly, throwing that ass back to meet my thrashes.I wished she could keep quiet. I hated the sounds of her girly moans. That was not what I wanted to hear. And the only reason why I was still turned on was because behind my closed eyes, all I could see was those blue eyes. All I could hear in m

"After Caleb got drafted to the NFL, I really thought we were going to struggle. He was our captain and our best player. But we managed to make it work without him. We're second on the table right now, behind last season's champions, Boston U. So, honestly, it couldn't be any better.""Yeah. So, you're the captain now?""Hmm. I'm co-captain with Bruce.""Awesome. I assume the goal is to get drafted?""Absolutely." He smiled. "It's the dream, you know? I've been working hard and pushing myself. I didn't make it in the last draft, but I still have hope. We're having a Pro Day in a couple of months, and I really want to make sure I'm ready for it.""Yeah, definitely."A Pro Day was basically a college-hosted workout where NFL scouts/personnel evaluated prospects.

Chapter: Epilogue: Eighteen years later & Everything 18 Years Later... The house was quiet in that way Anushka had come to treasure—full of life, yet settled. Afternoon light poured in through the tall windows, casting a soft glow over the framed photographs on the hallway wall. She stood in front of one in particular—the one with the garland. Her father, frozen in time, smiling in his signature crisp white kurta, the corner of his eyes crinkled in amusement. A marigold mala had been laid gently across the top of the frame. It had been five years since he passed. She reached up, adjusting one of the garlands so it sat straighter, her fingers brushing against the cool glass. A breath caught in her throat, the kind that never really left. “I hope you see her,” she whispered. “I hope you’re watching.” The front door creaked open and a burst of laughter spilled in—sharp, bright, unmistakably theirs. McKenzie entered first, hair pulled back into a messy bun, basketball tucked under one arm. She kicked off her sneakers without breakin

Chapter: Chapter 113: "Reyan McKenzie"ANUSHKA’S POV The world looked different on the day we brought him home. I noticed things I hadn’t noticed before—how blue the sky really was, how warm sunlight could feel even through car windows, how every red light felt like an eternity when you had a six-pound miracle in the backseat. McKenzie drove like a retired Formula One driver, one hand tight on the wheel, the other hovering like a shield near Reyan’s carrier. “No one’s even close to us,” I murmured with a smile. “Not taking chances,” she muttered, eyes sharp in the rearview mirror. “These streets are full of amateurs.” I turned to look at him. Our son. Bundled in white, cheeks pink, his head swaying slightly with each bump in the road. His mouth puckered in sleepy protest, his tiny fist peeking out from the wrap like a question mark. Everything in me softened again. My body was sore. My back ached. My stitches tugged every time I breathed too hard—but none of that mattered. Not when he sighed like that. Not

Chapter: Chapter 112: "Hello, baby" The keys hit the marble floor with a metallic clatter. "Where are the damn keys?" Danelle muttered, half-shouting, as she scrambled across the foyer in bare feet, heart thundering. "I'm fine!" Anushka insisted from the doorway, one hand bracing her belly, the other clutching Aunt Pooja's arm. "It's just a slow trickle. Not a flood." "It's your water breaking, Anushka, not a spilled glass of juice!" Danelle shouted back, finally snatching the keys from under the entryway bench. Her hands were shaking. Karina's voice floated in from upstairs: "Grab the overnight bag! It's in the closet near the nursery!" "I packed it three weeks ago!" Danelle yelled, halfway to the garage now. Anushka groaned, waddling after her with the kind of grace only a nine-months-pregnant woman on the brink of labor could possess. Aunt Pooja jogged beside her, heels clicking. "Did you call the hospital?" Danelle shouted from the car: "I'm calling on the way!" By the time the SUV pulled out of

Chapter: Chapter 111: Marigolds & Moonlight A few days later... The courtyard of the McKenzie mansion had been transformed into something between a prayer and a dream. Bright marigolds cascaded from the pillars in thick orange garlands, swaying gently in the breeze. Strings of jasmine curled around golden mandap arches, their scent sweet and heady. Clay incense holders released delicate tendrils of sandalwood smoke into the warm afternoon air, mingling with the soft sounds of veena music drifting in the background. At the heart of it all sat Anushka. She was draped in a deep wine-red silk saree, the borders glimmering with antique zari embroidery. Her bare belly—round, full, and radiant—was gently encircled by a soft golden waistband. Bangles shimmered on both arms, her wrists a medley of green, gold, and red. Around her neck sat an heirloom temple choker, heavy with history, and in her coiled bun, tiny strings of fresh mogra flowers peeked through. A red bindi, centered perfectly between her brows, glowed like a third eye u

Chapter: Chapter 110: Lunch, Lullabies & LoveDANELLE’S POV Four months later..... The double doors of the conference room clicked shut behind me as I exhaled the kind of breath that only quarterly board meetings could suck out of your lungs. “Great job in there, ma’am,” James said, falling into step beside me, his tablet balanced like an extra limb. I gave him a nod, loosening the button on my blazer. “Tell legal I want the paperwork for the Oakland merger on my desk by five. And no spin—just the raw draft. I’ll redline it myself.” “Yes, ma’am. And the delegation from Lagos rescheduled—they’re flying in next Friday.” “Book the suite at the Peninsula for them. Full hospitality.” “Already done.” "Good." The elevator dinged, and we stepped out onto the executive floor—quiet, carpeted and pulsing with the low hum of power that only the top tier ever heard. James kept pace beside me, flipping through his digital calendar. “Also, I confirmed the Q3 audit with Price & Knox. They’re sending someone senior this time,

Loved By Coincidence
Jada Adams is just trying to survive-working long shifts at one of the most luxurious hotels in the country, keeping her head down, and ignoring the quiet ways her life is already falling apart. When nausea turns into something she can no longer deny, the truth becomes terrifyingly clear.
She's pregnant.
Castiel Sterling is thirty, powerful, and untouchable-the CEO of Sterling Hotel, heir to a hospitality dynasty, and a man who has spent years believing he would never become a father. His marriage is already strained by secrets and unspoken resentment, so when Jada tells him the impossible truth, he does the only thing that makes sense to him.
He accuses her of lying. Of wanting his money.
But the truth has a way of clawing its way to the surface.
As lies unravel and betrayals from the past come to light, Castiel is forced to confront the fact that his life and his marriage were never what he believed them to be. And Jada must decide whether love is worth the pain of being doubted, judged, and pulled into a world that was never meant for her.

Chapter: CHAPTER 10: WHY WAS MY LIFE SO DIFFICULT?JADA'S POV"Are you okay?"That was the first thing Cas asked me when I stopped in front of him in the lobby.I simply nodded and adjusted the strap of my bag on my shoulder.He looked like he didn't believe me, but thankfully decided not to push. He probably noticed that I wasn't in the mood. I was so angry right now. I didn't want to talk.How dare Clarissa call me a bitch?How dare she accuse me of wanting Amechi?Sure, I found the guy attractive, and if he were to ever ask me out, I probably wouldn't say no. But that didn't mean I had been trying to get with him. I had never flirted with him with the intention of being more than what we already were. I simply enjoyed being around him. I liked talking to him. He was friendly, kind, and always treated me well.That was it.So for Clarissa to come at me like that, throwing baseless accusations, really pissed me off."Come on, let's go," Cas said, gesturing for me to walk ahead.I started walking, and he followed just behind me.I c

Chapter: CHAPTER 09: WHAT ARE YOU HIDING?JADA'S POVI felt like he could see right through me.The way his eyes stayed on me, his brows drawn together like he was trying to figure me out, only made me more nervous. Instead of calming down, I was freaking the hell out inside. All I wanted was to get the hell out of there.I didn't even understand why the thought of him finding out about the baby scared me so much.Well... maybe I did.He was married, and from everything I had seen, he seemed happy with his wife. So expecting him to be okay with this was probably stupid. This baby could destroy his marriage. And even though I didn't really know him, I wouldn't put it past him to call what happened between us a mistake and tell me to get rid of it.After all, he had already left me alone in that hotel room after sleeping with me.So why would I expect him to act any differently now?"Ma'am, we have a situation down in the lobby."

"Why did she run away?"I walked over to the couch and sat down, crossing one leg over the other."Who is she?" I asked, leaning back and making myself comfortable.I figured this was the perfect chance to get some information about the woman."She's Jada Adams," Jessica said as she walked over to the file cabinet, her heels clicking against the floor. "She's been working here for about six months now."I raised an eyebrow. "Only six months?"Jessica nodded, flipping through the color-coded folders. "Yeah."She pulled out a blue file, closed the drawer, and walked back toward me."She's a good girl. She works hard, and she's been Employee of the Month since she started." she said, handing me the file. "I was very impressed with her, and you know it takes a lot to impress me. But lately, she's been disappointing. I don't know what's wrong with her.""What do you mean?""She's been slacking

Chapter: CHAPTER 07: BABY DADDYJADA'S POV The next morning, I woke up feeling the same way I had every morning for the past few weeks. Like absolute shit. After spending several miserable minutes with my head hanging over the toilet, the nausea finally eased enough for me to function. I took a quick shower, then pulled on a pair of dark jeans, a black turtleneck, leather boots, and my favorite leather jacket. The weather had turned chilly overnight. If I didn't have work, I would've crawled right back into bed and stayed there all day. I was pouring myself a cup of coffee when I heard the familiar click of heels against the hardwood floor. A second later, Mani appeared in the kitchen doorway. She was still wearing last night's outfit-a white bodycon dress that stopped mid-thigh and a fluffy pink faux-fur coat draped over her shoulders. I took one look at her and snorted. "Well... you look like hell." She groaned dramatically as she dropped onto one of the kitchen stools and tossed her glittery purse onto

Chapter: CHAPTER 06: A MESS JADA'S POV Never in a million years did I think my life would take a turn like this. It was already falling apart before the pregnancy. If bad luck had a favorite person, it was me. Sometimes I honestly wondered if my family had been cursed generations ago, because nothing ever seemed to go right. And that theory couldn't have been any more right. Out of all the stupid things I had done in my life, this had to be at the top of the list. Not only was I broke and pregnant. I was pregnant by my boss who was married. Not long ago he was in and interview with his gorgeous supermodel wife, smiling for the cameras and telling the whole world how much they loved each other. The irony was almost laughable. It could have been anyone. Literally anyone but him. But somehow, life always found the worst possible way to punish me. At this point, it felt like the universe had a personal grudge against me. "Are you even listening to me?" Nadia asked, pulling me out of my thoughts. I b

"I don't know," I answered quietly, though my eyes were still fixed on the door she had just disappeared through. What were the chances? Out of all the hotels in the country. Out of all the cities. She was here, working in my hotel. The same woman whose beauty had haunted my thoughts day and night ever since I first laid eyes on her. Two months later, but I could still remember the way she looked that night. She wore a soft brown dress that hugged her body in all the right places. Her smile was easily one of the prettiest things I had ever seen. And her eyes... dammit, there was something about them that pulled me in immediately. I just knew it deep down in my heart that I wanted her. And when I finally had her in my arms later that night, I did not want it to end. The way she fitted so perfectly in my arms. The way her body responded to every touch like we already

Chapter: <9> A Royal Summon ANNIE'S POV The air outside my hospital room carried a distinct scent, a mix of antiseptic and mint, that lingered in the chilly atmosphere, making my skin prickle with goosebumps as Matilda expertly maneuvered my wheelchair down the long, sterile hallway. After what felt like an eternity spent surrounded by the constant humming and beeping of machines, coupled with a parade of doctors and nurses coming and going, I was finally on my way out. My body still felt weak, a little sore, but my spirits were so high you would swear I had wings. Earlier that morning, I had been blessed with a visit from Mrs. Blackwood, who brought along a batch of delicious muffins and wrapped me in a warm embrace that felt like sunshine. She told me how everyone at the bakery was so proud of me for what I had done, and they couldn't wait for me to come back. That made me so happy. Now, as we approached the front desk where the discharge forms awaited, I hugged my warm blanket tightly around my legs for co

Chapter: <8> Hope & longing STEPHEN'S POV “Come in,” I called out, my voice breaking the silence that filled my office when I heard a gentle knock on the door. A bright smile broke across my face as soon as my fiancee stepped through the doorway. Her presence always had a way of brightening my day, even in the midst of the hectic demands of my job. “Hey babe,” she greeted, her voice warm and inviting, as she gracefully made her way toward my desk. I couldn’t help but stand up from my chair, pushing it back slightly, and walked around the table to meet her, eager to close the physical distance between us. “Hey love,” I replied softly, wrapping my arms around her waist, pulling her closer to me. I leaned in to place a gentle kiss on her lips, savoring that brief moment of connection before the weight of the world rushed back into our conversation. “How are you feeling?” Catherine sighed heavily, her breath shuddering as she placed her hands on my chest, her eyes searching mine for reassurance. “I don’t kno

Chapter: <7> Sense of purpose ANNIE'S POV "Do you have any idea just how worried I was about you, huh?" Matilda exclaimed, her brows furrowing in frustration as she scolded me. The concern in her voice was unmistakable. "What if something really bad had happened to you? What on earth would I do without you, huh?" Feeling the heat of shame wash over me, I looked down at my lap, unable to meet her piercing gaze as I mumbled my apology, "I'm sorry." "You are so fucking careless sometimes Annie; I swear, I just can't with you!" she retorted, her voice a mix of disbelief and exasperation. I could see the worry etched across her face, though her anger was evident too. I pouted as I raised my eyes to meet Matilda's. Her expression was stormy, a mixture of anger and profound fear, and I knew I had put her through an ordeal. "I said I was sorry, Mattie! I was lost in thought and didn’t even notice that car behind me until it was almost too late." Matilda let out a heavy sigh, and her demeanor softened just a touch.

Chapter: <6> Anxiety & Helplessness STEPHEN's POV The atmosphere in the hospital was one of utter chaos, a frenetic whirlwind of activity as nurses and doctors hurried back and forth, their expressions a mixture of focus and anxiety. The gravity of the queen’s condition had cast a heavy cloud over the entire emergency room. It had been hours since we first began our desperate efforts to stabilize her, and despite our relentless work, the situation was growing increasingly dire. Every passing second felt like an eternity, and the grim reality was that her condition was deteriorating more rapidly than we had anticipated. I could feel beads of perspiration forming on my forehead, dampening my operation scrubs as I navigated the frantic scene alongside my colleagues, Dr. Ryan and Dr. Kerkez, who were equally immersed in the high-stakes battle for Queen Helén's life. “She’s losing a lot of blood,” Dr. Ryan exclaimed, his voice dripping with urgency. “We’ll need at least two to three drips of type O blood group.

Chapter: <5> Emergency ANNIE'S POV I was sitting on my knees, naked, with both my arms outstretched and tied to the front posts of the bed with something like a rope. I could hear some movement behind me, but my head could only turn to the side as I tried to look back. My chest rose and fell with heavy breaths, and my whole body felt so hot for some reason. I felt the bed dip behind me, and the next thing I felt was somebody's hard chest pressing flat against my back, with their hand wrapping around my neck while the other caressed and played with my nipples. My back arched, my head falling back on their shoulder, and a throaty moan slipped out of my mouth when something cold pinched my nipples so hard. That certainly hurt, but the wave of pleasure that went through my body because of that left me whimpering and wanting more. I could feel my own wetness spreading between my thighs. "Look at you princess.."A very deep and raspy voice murmured against my ear. His voice alone making me whimper desperately"I

Chapter: <4> Through the window STEPHEN'S POVIt was a struggle to escape from the table with that huge tent in my pants but I managed to sneak away hopefully without anybody noticing it. I hurriedly ascended up the golden staircase to the second floor and then took right, heading towards Catherine's bedroom. Once I reached at her door, I slowly turned the knob and opened it before pushing myself inside. Catherine was sitting on the edge of the bed , one leg crossed over the other. The one on top was peeking through the slit of her glistening black & gold gown dress that she was wearing and I licked my lips as my eyes trailed down the long and sexy leg. Catherine was a very sexy woman. She was tall and had right amount of curves in all right places. Her pretty face was that one that could make every man lose focus and heck don't get me started about the big D-cups that she carried on her chest. Probably the first thing that attracted me to her. I was a sucker for fat boobs and there were without a question my bigge
