Craving The Badboy Chapter 34 – Jealous as Hell
Carter’s POV“He hates me. I’m sure he hates the fuck out of me.”That’s what I said to myself in the locker room, staring at the mirror like it might give me an answer. Sweat still dripped down my face, towel hanging around my neck, eyes bloodshot. My reflection didn’t say shit back. Just looked at me like I was pathetic.It’s only been one damn day since Danilo strutted onto the field with his skinny ass legs and decided to try out for kicker. One day. That’s all it took for everything to get flipped upside down.I remember it like it just happened. Everyone was laughing when he lined up. Even me. He looked so out of place, standing there with his too-perfect hair and those glasses that made him look more like he belonged in a library than on a football field. Guys were throwing around “nerd” and “choir boy” like candy. Then he kicked the ball.And holy shit, it flew. Not just far, it was perfect, and clean. Dead center. And it shut every one of us the hell up.Then he did it again.
Craving The Badboy Chapter 33 – Forced Compromises
Danilo’s POVMy cheek was still burning from his slap when he shoved the phone in my face. I blinked, the screen blurring for a second before the sound hit me. That’s my voice…singing. I almost stopped breathing.There I was on the screen, standing in front of the school stage at auditions. Singing like an idiot who thought nobody was watching. Someone had recorded it, clean as day, and then apparently the whole damn internet had watched it. The video had thousands of views already. My face, my voice had gone viral.My stomach dropped like I’d been kicked.“This?” my father said, voice sharp like broken glass. “This is what you’ve been doing behind my back?”I couldn’t answer. I just stared at myself on that screen, moving my lips, hearing that version of me who actually looked like he gave a damn about something.“Do you know what kind of embarrassment this is?” Hector’s voice rose. “My son, prancing around on a stage, singing like…like a clown for everyone to laugh at! You ought to
Craving The Badboy Chapter 32 – Lies in the Air
Danilo’s POVI stood outside the liquor store clutching the brown paper bag like it might blow up in my hands. My stomach was twisting and flipping nonstop. Beckett Reynolds had me. He had me cornered like a rat and he knew it. My head kept running in circles, thinking maybe there’s a way out, but every thought just looped back to him. Back to that smug grin. Back to his voice in my ear, calling me good boy.I wanted to scream, punch something, throw up, anything. Instead, I shoved the bag onto the passenger seat and started the car. The whiskey clinked against the plastic when I hit a bump, loud as hell, louder than the radio, louder than my own thoughts. My fingers squeezed the steering wheel until my knuckles turned white.I was supposed to feel relieved. Bottle replaced, crisis averted, right? But all I could picture was Beckett holding that bag like he owned me, whispering shit in my ear. I pressed harder on the gas like speeding could erase him. Spoiler: it couldn’t.By the time
Craving The Badboy Chapter 31. The Relentless Mr. Reynolds
Danilo’s POVI swear my heart almost stopped when I turned around and saw him standing there in that liquor store aisle. Beckett Reynolds. Mr. Yale Admissions himself. Married, rich, smooth-talking, old-enough-to-be-my-dad Beckett Reynolds.The last place I expected to see him was here, surrounded by cheap whiskey bottles and fluorescent lights buzzing overhead. He looked out of place in the worst kind of way, like he was too polished for somewhere like this, and me being stuck in the same space as him suddenly made me feel smaller, like I didn’t belong anywhere.The memory of the mayor’s ball slammed back into me, that whole night replaying in my head like some sick movie. Him in that sharp suit, hair slicked back, smiling at me in a way I tried so hard to convince myself was innocent. It wasn’t. He’d cornered me in the men’s room, pressed me against the sink, kissed me like he had every right to, and whispered that all I had to do to get into Yale was give him a “good time.” That wa
Craving The Badboy Chapter 30 – Harper On My Nerves
Danilo’s POVMy heart was still thudding against my ribs when I made my way toward the spot where Carter and his crew usually lounged. That stupid, reckless scene outside the auditorium kept replaying in my head, and the more I thought about it, the more I prayed Antonia hadn’t done anything dramatic. I didn’t even know what I would do if she had.From a distance, I noticed Carter wasn’t there. His crew was scattered around, leaning against lockers, cracking jokes, pretending like they were too cool for school. But Carter was nowhere to be found. And neither was Antonia. The pit in my stomach got heavier. I rubbed my palms against my jeans, trying not to look like I was searching for him like some lovesick fool.I was still scanning when Harper popped out of nowhere.“Jesus Christ,” I hissed under my breath, nearly jumping out of my skin.“Why did you storm out of rehearsals like that?” she demanded, folding her arms like she was my teacher, not my classmate. Her voice wasn’t exactly
Craving The Badboy Chapter 29 – Carter’s Many Masks
Carter’s POV The guys were laughing about something stupid, Tito was telling that story again about how Coach nearly tripped over his own clipboard during practice, and I was laughing too, but not really. My mouth was making the right sounds, my face doing the right thing, but my head wasn’t here. Not even close. I kept thinking about him. The look on Danilo’s face when I pushed him against his locker and threatened him. The way his eyes had burned with something, hurt? Anger? God, I don’t even know, but it had stuck in my chest like a thorn. I told myself I didn’t care, that it was the right thing to do, that none of it mattered. But if that was true, why the hell couldn’t I stop replaying it? I leaned against the lockers, arms crossed, pretending I was into the noise of my crew. But then I saw her. Antonia. Storming across the hallway like a damn hurricane. Eyes sharp, jaw set, fists clenched like she was about to murder somebody. And I didn’t need anyone to spell it out for m
