LOGINHey, my beautiful readers!
Thank you for joining Hunter and Tristan's journey, up until this point. I hope you're having as much fun reading as I'm having writing them. It might be a little slow-burn, but I promise the pay off their relationship will be explosive. okay, let me get to my main point haha. I'm a college student and this is time of the year I have to write exams. I won't be able to squeeze in updates for now. But as soon as I'm back In October, I'll get right to it!Hey, my beautiful readers! Thank you for joining Hunter and Tristan's journey, up until this point.

HUNTER The Uber dropped me off two blocks from the house and as I climbed out, staring at the building glowing at the end of the street, a smirk curved the corner of my lips. Yeah. This was definitely going to be a better night than sitting at home. I began walked towards it, hearing the loud music thumping even from the distance. There were a couple of teens crowded at the front lawn with red cups in their hands, moving to the music while someone in the driveway attempted to balance on the roof of a parked car. As I stared at the house, I had to do a double take. Okay. Maybe I had underestimated Raven Hill a little. I'd assumed everyone in Raven Hill lived in rusted trailers or decrepit apartments, but this place was surprisingly decent. Sure the driveway wasn't pack with brand-new European sports cars like the ragers back at Fonteign, but the house was nice and the baseline degeneracy of a party filled with teens and no parental guidance was universal. The air
HUNTER“You’ll see me when I’m home, Mom.” I snapped, slamming the front door shut behind me.Dusk had already settled over DevinPort, painting the sky in soft swirls of pink and blue that would've been beautiful if I hadn't been too pissed off to appreciate them.Gritting my teeth, I shoved my fists into my pockets and stormed down the driveway, the frustration rolling through me with every angry step.Nothing would've felt better than climbing into my car right now and speeding the hell away from this place.Except, that privilege had also been repossessed along with the rest of my life.So there I was, marching down the street on foot like Charlie fucking Brown after another one of life's many disappointments.And what exactly had I done to deserve this?Being the son of an allegedly criminal millionaire wasn't enough. Now I couldn't even get a straight answer from my own family.Ever since Dad had been arrested, I hadn't seen him and it wasn't from lack of trying on my end.God, h
HUNTER I’d just stepped out of Pizza King to toss a trash bag into the dumpster in the alley, since the ones at the back exit were full when I found Tristan Reeves standing there.He looked just as surprised to see me although with Reeves that didn't mean much.The shock was quickly cleared from his expression, replaced with the unreadable one he always had on.He took a slow step back, adjusting the lapels of his black jacket. "What are you doing out here, Beaumont?"He asked me what I was literally about ask him."I work here, remember?" I narrowed my eyes, taking in his rigid posture. The alley was empty, and would be pitch black if not for the flickering streetlight overhead. I threw his question back at him. "What are you doing back here.""Getting pizza."If my eyes could get any narrower, I wouldn't be able to see any longer. "From the alley?""I walked around the side to grab it from the front." He explained and that made absolutely no sense.Scoffing, I threw the trash into
TRISTANI shouldn't have allowed Evie to blackmail me into bringing her here.Or better yet, I shouldn't have opened my fucking mouth about it in the first place.But the second I’d met her after school, she’d interrogated me like a federal agent, demanding every single piece of information I had on Hunter Beaumont. Why she was so obsessed with the guy, I had no damn idea, but she’d cornered me until I finally snapped and mentioned where he worked just to shut her up. Naturally, that led to her dragging me straight here.Whatever. We were here now. Once she choked down the cheap pizza she claimed she couldn't live without, I was driving us straight back home.I hated bringing Evie to this side of town. My reputation here was something I was ashamed of and I didn't need anyone seeing her with me or my fucked-up world touching her. But I figured one quick stop wouldn't hurt.Beside her insistence, Lucian drank again tonight. Being around him when he wasn't drunk was already like s
HUNTER After the stunt Coach had pulled on my first day, standing there and backing up every single lies those assholes had told at the principal's office, id expected to fight tooth and nail against a mountain of bureaucratic bullshit.I'd fully expected his vendetta against me would make sure I sat on the bench for half the season, working my way up from the bottom of the roster.But Morrison was a hell of a lot smarter than his terrible mustache let on. Like me, he didn't care about politics and only cared about winning. And giving me a shot at the Center position was the best damn decision he could have made.A fierce, manic heat bubbled in my chest as I snapped my helmet strap into place. He just handed me an opening.And I was fucking ready to take it.If anything I was almost giddy.Almost.Looking around the room, I knew the reality. Half these guys were clunky, heavy-footed meatheads and the only one on this entire team who could actually hold a candle to my skill level
