Violet:

After dinner was over, Liam and I didn't head home as I'd expected. For a moment I watched the waiters clear the table while the man before me just stared into the night sky, as if waiting on a wishing star.

"The tournament officially begins on February 16th," Liam said, his eyes still on the neon lights.

"I know, I saw the roster," I answered.

"That's two days after Valentine's," he added, and for a moment we both let that word settle between us. I'd unconsciously thought about countle

    Violet:After dinner was over, Liam and I didn't head home as I'd expected. For a moment I watched the waiters clear the table while the man before me just stared into the night sky, as if waiting on a wishing star."The tournament officially begins on February 16th," Liam said, his eyes still on the neon lights."I know, I saw the roster," I answered."That's two days after Valentine's," he added, and for a moment we both let that word settle between us. I'd unconsciously thought about countless ways to spend the International Lovers' Day with him. In the past, I would book a candlelight dinner and buy Marcus an expensive gift, only to have him buy me nothing and stand me up."I won't be available that day," Liam said, as if we had a date planned."I know the last screening will be taking place, and I don't expect you. We won't be dating by then." His gaze peeled away from the neon lights and settled on me."So it won't be absurd if I claim my presence tonight, right?" I blinked, and

    Liam:Love Paradise wasn't only known for its mouthwatering flavors, but also for its private terrace, string lights, and freedom from paparazzi. From the moment it opened its doors to customers, not one photograph had surfaced on the internet, taken from obscure locations or hidden positions. We only had a few days left before calling the relationship quits, and I couldn't help but want to be with Violet without looking over my shoulder. Hendricks had said to keep it boring and quiet, but he'd never said to continue the show after the review board's meeting, and I needed no official statement from him to end it, because it was certainly what I knew he expected of me.I pulled out a seat for her, and she smiled, then placed the flowers on the side of the table before sitting down. The view from the terrace was magnificent, Ashgrove sprawled beneath us in a sea of neon lights and moving cars. I signaled the waiter, who quickly came and brought the menu with him. A high-end dinner at

    Violet:Morning didn't come fast. All night, Amara and I skimmed through the internet, watched all the session videos, and wrote down notes that seemed vague on their own but, when combined with the others, looked like a crime line yet to be discovered. For the past two years, no one had ever compared the team's psych sessions with the tournament or game calendars. So much made no sense. For four years Ashgrove had beaten Kingsgrove hands down, taking the championship back home every time. Last year the assistant captain had not only won man of the match but also gotten a contract with an international team, and now he played only elite games and pulls a good paycheck for it. As a native of Ashgrove, I knew too well when he'd moved his family; not just me, but the entire region did. He'd done it in grand style; everyone welcomed him home with celebrations, and now he not only lived in the capital but also owned one of the biggest chocolate companies in Ashgrove.Looking down at Marc

    VioletI spent the better part of the evening, after the cheerleaders were chased out, cross-referencing Whitfield's old session notes against my own. Some habits stood out identically. Marcus didn't speak much in hers, but his hand movements and facial expressions matched. The way he'd lean back and sigh heavily after a meaningful question was asked, only to brush it off with a light joke or sarcasm, hadn't changed. I'd scribbled notes so late into the night, over three cups of cold coffee, that my fingers hurt and my eyes begged for nothing but a little darkness to rest their weariness.Meanwhile, I'd moved from the center to the floor, my legs tucked beneath me like a comfort cushion. On the couch, Amara sat in white shorts and a black vest, quietly scrolling through cheer squad drama. The team awaited her approval for the players to be cleared for the derby stage, while also waiting on her decision about whether to include the cheer squad."V," she murmured, and I turned, looking

    Third Person:A week painfully went by since Chloe's night with Marcus. For one, he didn't call her after that night, and worse, the following morning, before the sun had even received its schedule to rise, he woke her up and tossed her out like a shameless one-night stand. That night, Chloe had felt warm, hope had returned, and just maybe, she thought, she now had someone on her side. Nothing would have prepared her for the following morning.Marcus woke up before dawn, darkness still covering the sky, and beside him a woman he had no interest in slept peacefully, tangled in his sheets. At first he'd thought of letting her leave at first light, but what about the blogs? What if Liam decided to have someone follow him just to capture more of him and her together? At the thought, Violet coming across new photos of Chloe leaving his apartment didn't sit well with Marcus. So without thinking, he quickly woke her up.At first, Chloe groaned and turned, thinking he wanted more. She perked

  • Puck me. I’m yours   Chapter 42

    Violet:The sun had yet to rise when I forwarded the PDF Amara sent me to Liam. I owed him that much. He didn't reply, and I went about my day. I'd booked an appointment with Whitfield the previous night, so I quickly got dressed as the first light of dawn settled and headed to the psych department.Whitfield was in her office the moment I stepped in. She looked up from the laptop before her and smiled. "Ms. Hart." Her voice sounded more welcoming. I smiled and sat down."I've gone through your recent records, and I'm glad to see progress." I quickly pulled out a new file from my bag and pushed it toward her. "The schedule for the tournament is out, and as the team advances, we're expected to move with them. I don't see reason why an intern should shoulder such responsibility, given the importance of this tournament."Whitfield didn't rush to explain. She paused, shifted her laptop aside, and picked up the new file. She examined every page quietly while I waited, fingers entangled on
