LOGINCaught in the wrong place at the wrong time. Rhett an undercover agent infiltrates Ravenwood University to investigate what happened to his brother who mysteriously died during an investigation on the 5 families. Starting Off with the powerful of all 5....The Riccis. Everything goes according to plan with Rhett keeping an eye Lucien Ricci until one night at an event that neither him nor Lucien should be at causes someone to notice him. Someone who also happens to one of the heirs of the 5 families.
View MoreLuke The second half is seven minutes in when I first notice them. Not because they do anything obvious. Not because the crowd reacts nor the commentator says anything worth paying attention to. I notice them because of the way the Helmshire players keep glancing at them. There are four of them on Ravenwood's side of the field. Lucien is the one everyone already knows. But the other three-the ones flanking him like they were arranged that way on purpose-carry a different kind of weight.The first is the wide receiver. Number eleven. I'd clocked him earlier for the one-handed touchdown catch but dismissed him as just athletic. Watching him now I revise that assessment. He's tall, lean, mixed race with close-cropped hair and the kind of face that looks permanently unbothered. He runs routes with an almost bored precision — every cut clean, every acceleration measured — like he's already calculated
LukeThe first quarter is barely five minutes in, and I already understand why the stadium fills up for this.It's not the sport.It's him.Lucien plays football the way he does everything else - like the outcome was already decided before anyone else stepped onto the field, and the game is just the formality of proving it.I watch him from the stands with the kind of focus I usually reserve for surveillance.Ravenwood's offence lines up. Lucien stands at quarterback, unhurried, scanning the defence across the line. The opposing team Helmshire, based on their navy and gold-has, stacked their defensive line heavy on the left. Two safeties sitting deep. A blitz package is barely disguised behind a standard formation.Lucien sees it.I know he sees it because he doesn't call a timeout. Doesn't signal the coach. He just shifts-one step right, a subtle hand gesture toward his wide receiver, two fingers tapped against his thigh for the running back.Three adjustments. No huddle. No waste
Luke "Shoot,shoot,shoot," Teagan cheers as she focuses on the monitor I dogged and launched a counterattack, killing her. "Damn it," she slumps back in her chair, holding her controller. "I won again," I say, putting my controller down"Lucky break" "You lost five times," I say "Hey Tea, Joanne needs you downstairs." Breanna walks in. "Okay, wait for our rematch." She walks out, leaving. "Hey...um... Luke?" "Yeah?" "...I...uh... thanks for not telling the others about last night, " she says, arms folded at her chest fiddling with her necklace. Last night, right. She was at Santiago’s party with someone in one of the private rooms. "No problem... but...what everything okay between you and him?" "Yeah,yeah... just a small misunderstanding. " "So us he your boyfriend?" It might sound really suspicious how I'm asking her too many questions, but the guy she was with last night seemed off. Really off
Luke Wolfe. Real name - Preston Dragna. The agent that was actually approved and sent to this case by the agency. "I was actually expecting you, you know," He says, letting go of me and walks back towards a table with a few bottles and pours a drink. "Why?" He goes silent and takes a sip. "It's obvious I can't stop you....Jacobs couldn't, so how could I,hm?" He's admitting defeat? That I could seriously beat him? Bullshit. "What do you want?" I askHe ignores that. "Who's your target?" He asks "Ricci’s" I utter. He'd find out for himself later anyway. He chuckles, shaking his head. "Straight to the top, I see," Why’s he laughing? "What? weren't they the target?"“Yes,” he says slowly. “and no”"The hell is that supposed to mean?" “You really came in blind.” He says amused I don’t respond.Don’t give him that satisfaction.Wolfe exhales lightly, swirling the
Luke I have a stalker. It’s official now. The bastard has been watching me. But for how long? My mind races as the questions keep piling up in my head. Does he know who my target is?Did he see me spying on Lucien? Worst of all… did he see me go to the storage locker? My phone hasn’t stoppe
Unknown Santiago doesn’t invite outsiders. He curates them. By the time I step into Constitutional Law, the invitation has already circulated through the right channels. Selective guest list. After the ball. The usual people - aside from Luke.
Luke“Don’t you just love football season?” Teagan drops into the seat across from me and lets her tray hit the table a little harder than necessary. I glance up from my plate. “You sound thrilled.”“Oh, I am,” she says flatly. “Nothing says academic excellence like thirty extra
Luke The alarm goes off at 6:00 a.m. sharp. I’m already awake. I let it ring twice before shutting it off, staring at the ceiling while the campus slowly comes to life outside my window. I shower and prepare for class as usual. Grab a coffee and muffin on my way when some asshole slams int
