Goal! The Manchester United Captains Chapter 60: A Quiet Confession
The locker room was empty. The smell of sweat and leather lingered in the air, faint but sharp enough to make Maya’s stomach twist. She paused at the doorway, her eyes settling on Amelia slumped over a bench, her head in her hands. The girl looked smaller than usual, fragile like glass, the weight of something unseen pressing her down.Maya’s chest tightened. She couldn’t watch this anymore. Two days until the European match that could decide their season and Amelia’s focus was shattered. Every practice misstep, every distracted glance at her phone told Maya the truth: Amelia was a liability. A ticking time bomb. And if she didn’t act now, someone was going to get hurt.“Amelia?” Maya’s voice was soft, cautious, gentle, like she didn’t want to startle a frightened animal.Amelia’s head jerked up. Her eyes were wide, wet with tears she hadn’t yet allowed to fall. “Maya… I…” Her voice faltered, trembling.Maya stepped closer and lowered herself onto the bench beside her. Not as a captai

The rain hadn’t stopped all night. It hammered the streets like a warning, like the city itself wanted to remind them that nothing good could come from the meeting they were walking into.Leo felt the weight in his chest as he pushed open the café door and Ben followed behind. Inside, the café smelled of burnt coffee and damp coats. A radio hummed low in the background, almost drowned out by the patter of rain on the windows. At the corner table, under the dim light of a flickering lamp, sat Alex Thorne.The man looked younger than Leo expected, but older in the eyes. Haunted eyes. They didn’t shine; they carried weight, as if every second of his life was borrowed from someone else’s script.Alex lifted his head just enough to acknowledge them. His fingers tapped against his coffee cup, restless, nervous, like he was trying to beat out a signal only he understood.Leo slid into the chair across from him. Ben sat at his side, silent, watchful. “You shouldn’t be here. You shouldn’t ev

The chandeliers glowed like frozen fire above the ballroom, scattering light across a sea of tuxedos and glittering gowns. The hum of laughter, clinking glasses, and whispered deals filled the air. On the surface, it was just another charity gala with rich people showing off their money, pretending their greed had a heart.But for Leo, this was not about champagne or photographs.He wasn’t here to celebrate. He wasn’t here to charm. He was hunting.And tonight, his prey had a name: Damien Thorne.“Remember,” Marcus’s voice echoed in his mind from their earlier call, “he’s dangerous. He’ll smile at you, flatter you, and before you realize it, you’ll be standing on the edge of a cliff with him holding the rope. Don’t let him get inside your head.”Leo adjusted the cuff of his tuxedo, his face set in the easy grin that the cameras loved. David Hayes, his agent, was already schmoozing with some reporters near the bar, his voice carrying above the chatter.“Leo Sterling!” one guest shouted
Goal! The Manchester United Captains Chapter 57: The Temptation of Amelia
Maya could feel that the game she was playing now wasn’t on the field. It was hidden in the spaces between training drills, in the late-night conversations, in the small glances she caught when no one was paying attention.Football had rules. Life didn’t.And right now, Maya was fighting a game that could cost someone their soul.Her soul once upon a time.“Come on, Captain, you look like you’re carrying the whole team on your shoulders,” Amelia teased one morning as they walked off the pitch together. Sweat was dripping down her forehead, but her grin was sharp, cocky even.Maya forced a laugh. “That’s because I am, kid.”But inside, her stomach twisted. Amelia wasn’t just joking. There was a restless energy buzzing around her, like a phone on vibrate that never stopped. She was hungry. Not just for the game, but for more. For money, power, escape.The same hunger Maya had once carried before it almost destroyed her.Later that afternoon, Maya invited Amelia for coffee. She made it c

The storm outside the pub was loud, but it was nothing compared to the storm inside.Waves crashed against the rocks by the shore, and the wind shook the windows of the old wooden building. Hours ago, all the locals had already gone home. The pub was empty now except for four people sitting around a scratched, wooden table. The smell of beer and sea salt filled the air. But this wasn’t about drinks, or laughter, or small talk. Tonight, the pub was something else. It was a war room.Marcus Thorne sat at the head of the table. His face looked like it had been carved from stone. It was hard with sharp lines and eyes that carried years of regret. Once, he had been a rising star, a player with a bright future. But that dream had been crushed, buried in the shadow of his brother, Damien.And now, it was Damien who had to be stopped.Marcus’s voice was low, almost like a growl.“You need to understand what we’re really fighting,” he said, staring at each of them; Leo, Maya, and Ben.“Damien
Goal! The Manchester United Captains Chapter 55: The Ghost of the Past
If fear had a sound, it would have been the quiet between Leo and Maya lately, the way their voices dipped when they spoke, the way they both glanced over their shoulders even in crowded rooms.The threats hadn’t just shaken them. They’d rewired something inside them.And now, every choice felt like stepping into a minefield.They were in way over their heads.The syndicate wasn’t just a few shady gamblers trying to mess with football results, it was a monster with long arms and sharp claws. A web of rich, untouchable people who smiled for cameras while ruining lives in secret.And the worst part? They couldn’t trust anyone inside the system.But they needed someone.Someone strong.Someone untouchable in their own way.Someone with a reason to fight back.Ben was the one who found him though “found” might be the wrong word. It felt more like dragging a ghost back into the light.Marcus Thorne.Once, he’d been a name chanted by tens of thousands every Saturday. Former captain of Manch
