Kaya POV

I’m still breathless from the way Flynn pinned me against my apartment wall. My lips tingle, my heart is still racing, and my brain hasn’t caught up. He kissed me like he meant it. Like he wasn’t made of engineered parts and programmed impulses. Like he’s… human.

Too human.

“Flynn,” I whisper as he pulls back slightly, his forehead brushing mine. “Why are you doing this? Are you… losing the robot part of you or what?”

His eyes search my face, unsettling in the way they make me feel seen. “I told you,” he murmurs, voice low, teasing but not fully joking. “I’m practicing.”

“Practicing?” I blink.

“For when we get to the party,” he says softly, brushing a strand of hair behind my ear. “If we’re going to convince everyone this is real, I need to make sure it feels real. Looks real. That I do it right.”

My pulse jumps. “You didn’t have to… go that hard.”

“I wasn’t aware there were levels.” His lips twitch.

I shove his chest lightly, but he catches my wrist before I pull aw

    Flynn POV The night air outside the club is warm, buzzing with the thump of bass that spills through the open doors. Kaya walks beside me, her shoulder brushing mine every few steps. It’s accidental, but each touch settles deep in my chest. After the restaurant disaster, the team's next stop is the afterparty, so here we are, walking into a neon-lit room that smells like citrus cocktails and adrenaline. We barely step inside before Diamond materializes out of the crowd like she’s been waiting. Her dress is silver and loud, matching the smirk she throws at me. “Well, well,” she purrs, trailing her fingers over my arm. “Look who finally showed up.” Before Kaya can stiffen, I gently catch Diamond’s hand and drop it back to her side. “Don’t try that again.” Diamond’s playful expression falters. “Try what?” “Whatever stunt you pulled on the field earlier,” I say, my voice steady. “Do it again, and you’ll hurt my girlfriend.” The word hangs in the air and Kaya stops breathing. Di

    Kaya POV Riley’s scream is still echoing faintly through the chandelier-lit dining room when I lean forward, fold my hands on the table, and tilt my head at her. She is frozen with the leather bill folder clenched between her fingers. Her eyes flick from the number to the waiter, then to Tom, and then to me. Her entire face looks like someone just unplugged her from reality. “Why did you scream like that?” I ask softly, letting my voice carry just enough for the table to hear. “Is there a problem? Or can’t you afford it?” Riley snaps her mouth shut, forces a smile, and lifts her chin. “Afford it? Of course I can afford it,” she says, even though her voice trembles. “Don’t be silly, Kaya.” “Then pay it,” one of the teammates mutters under his breath. Color floods Riley’s cheeks. She straightens her back and turns to the waiter with a grand wave of her hand. “You can put it on my father’s tab,” she says. “He will handle it, as always. He practically owns this entire block.” The w

    Kaya’s POV The stadium noise fades into a dull roar as Diamond clings to Flynn like she owns him. My breath stutters. My face burns with humiliation, on national TV, with thousands of cameras and millions watching. I swallow hard and take a step back. I can’t stand here and let this be the image broadcast everywhere, Flynn Fetcher, golden boy of the field, holding another woman while I look like an idiot in the stands. I turn to leave, but then Flynn moves. His arms stiffen, and in one sharp motion, he pushes Diamond off him. She stumbles back, confused, her smile collapsing as the cameras flash in her face. Flynn’s gaze snaps upward, right to me and my heart stops. For a moment, it feels like the stadium goes silent. Like the only sound left is my heartbeat slamming against my ribs. Flynn’s expression softens into relief, determination, and something else that makes my stomach flip. And then he runs. Straight toward me. Up the steps, ignoring the reporters shouting, ignoring

    Kaya’s POV I feel the excitement buzzing through me as I make my way toward my seat in the stands. The stadium is packed, the energy of game day electrifying, but my eyes scan the field, thankfully Flynn is nowhere in sight just as we planned. Before I can even step into the tunnel leading to my section, a shadow blocks my path. “Going somewhere, Kaya?” Tom’s voice drips with mockery as he steps in front of me, arms crossed. I stop, lifting my chin to meet his glare. “Just going to my seat,” I reply evenly. He smirks. “Seat? Don’t waste your time. You’ll never find someone better than me, no matter how hard you try. Flynn? He never stood a chance against me.” I roll my eyes, unable to resist a jab. “Better? You’re nothing without me, Tom. That’s why your whole career tanked after our divorce.” His expression hardens, and in a flash, he grabs me by the throat, slamming me against the wall. My breath catches, and my heart races. The teammates around us freeze, stunned, and scare

    Kaya’s POV My heart pounds as the medical staff and players lift Flynn onto a stretcher. Panic prickles along my spine. “Wait!” I call, pushing past Riley, who’s trying to step in. “I don’t need your help!” Riley freezes, her eyes narrowing. “Kaya–” “No! Just…stay out!” I snap, locking the clinic door behind everyone. Relief and fear war in my chest as I lean over Flynn. His body is still, but I can’t stop myself from brushing the hair from his forehead. Then his eyes snap open. “Whoa!” I jump back, and before I can react, he grabs me, pulling me onto his chest. My mind freezes, my cheeks burning hotter than the stadium lights outside. “Flynn! Get off me!” I stammer, trying to push him gently, but he holds me with surprising strength, his eyes dark “I… I’ve been waiting all morning to do this,” he murmurs, lips hovering just above mine. I blink, heart hammering. “Wait… did you faint on purpose? The coach won’t let you play if something’s wrong!” He frowns, sitting up slightly
