Hayden's POV

Every muscle in my body stiffened as Stephen placed his lips on mine. I was too stunned to speak, to move. Stephen, however, didn't stop there. He grabbed my chin and kissed me deeper, prying my mouth with his and that was when I lost it.

Disgust surged through me and I pushed him away from me instantly, recoiling from whatever the fuck just happened. I wiped my lips once but that couldn't wipe away the disgust I felt toward Stephen right now. I almost gagged as I wiped my lips again and again until they started to hurt.

I looked up at him and he looked so pleased with a grin on his lips.

“You fucker!” I growled as I lunged at him, aiming to punch that smirk from his face but he ducked so quickly. “Why the fuck would you do that? You faggot!” I yelled in anger and he snorted with an amused expression on his face.

I was homophobic. Purely homophobic. It was stupid to see two people of the same fucking gender do insane things to each other. Why would a fucking guy like me be interested in a fellow man?

But Stephen was gay? Because he just kissed me showed that it wasn't the first time he has ever done this. And he didn't even look disgusted, he was definitely having fun.

“Faggot? Relax now, stepbrother, you wanted a kiss and I gave you a fucking kiss. Why are you so mad?” Stephen muttered, his tone mocking as he chuckled softly, even going as far as licking his lips.

“You're disgusting. You're the most disgusting human I've ever met. You fucking fag. Do not ever come near me again. Jesus, what in the fucking world?” I spat in disgust, wiping my lips again and again but it didn't get rid of the disgusting feeling on my lips.

I turned away from him, not even wanting to see his disgusting face again, but I suddenly felt him standing behind me, and I flinched so hard. I stumbled backward, and as soon as my back hit the wall, he placed his hands on either side of my head, pinning me to the wall again.

“Fucker—” I grunted in anger as I tried to push him off me. “Get your disgusting self away from me!” I yelled but he simply leaned down until our lips were inches from each other again.

“Guess everyone has a weakness after all and I just found yours. I will use it to my advantage, Hayden. And if you ever take anything that belongs to me again, I'll fucking kiss you till you drop. Understood?” He whispered softly and my eyes widened because I knew he wasn't joking

He leaned closer and was about to kiss me again when I pushed him off me and he laughed like he was having so much fun. In anger, I lunged at him and pushed him to the ground. I punched him hard enough that even my knuckles cracked but before I could land another punch, the door opened.

Shit.

“What is going on here?” The dean asked in anger and Stephen started to cough in pain while I got off him immediately.

“He suddenly attacked me when all I did was sit silently,” Stephen complained, holding his nose in pain, and I opened my mouth to defend myself, but my words got stuck in my throat.

What could I say? I did rile him up. I did punch him again.

“That's it.” The dean muttered as he glared at me. “Stephen, you're pardoned. Hayden will stay in detention till the school is over.” He ordered and my jaw dropped in confusion. How could he do this?

“But, Dean—”

“Don't make me increase your punishment, Hayden. Stay here and reflect on your behavior.” He said and I stayed quiet immediately. Stephen shot me a victorious smile and blew me a kiss before leaving with the dean.

Anger coursed through me as the door locked tightly in front of me, and I tried taking deep breaths, but it wasn't working. Suddenly, I grabbed a chair and slammed it against the door in anger. Then I threw another chair. I flipped tables upside down and let out groans of frustration.

By the time I was done throwing a tantrum, I looked around at the mess I had made and realized that I had probably overreacted. So one by one, I started to arrange everything back to the way it should have been. By the time I was done, the school bell rang, indicating that school was over for the day.

Coach was the one who came to get me out and I could see the disappointment in his face when I walked out with him.

“You're supposed to be the future of our club. You can't go around picking fights with your rival. You missed practice today, but you'll make up for it tomorrow morning. Before you go, see the dean in his office.” He ordered, shot me a disapproving look, then walked away.

I let out a sigh and made my way to the dean's office but the moment I pushed his door open, my eyes widened at the figure sitting in front of him.

Mom.

“The brat is finally out.” The dean muttered in disapproval and I walked in to see Stephen sitting beside Mom while she looked extremely displeased.

“Can you please give us a moment?” Mother said to him and he nodded as she turned to me with a glare. “Both of you, outside. Now.”

Stephen followed her outside while I followed behind them, and as the door slammed shut, she let out a sigh of defeat.

“You both will be the death of me. I'm sure. Why is it so hard for you both to get along? You're not biological brothers, yes I know, but I promised your mother I'd treat you like my own child. You want me to feel like a liar to my late best friend and husband? What is wrong with you?” She asked in frustration and I felt horrible, my eyes finding my shoes.

She wasn't my mom. I was the child of her best friend but when they died, her last words were for Mom to take me as her child. Which Mom did without thinking twice. I owed her my life.

“I'm sorry, Mom—”

“Sorry doesn't fix anything baby, your actions do. You have to promise me that you'll change. I can't keep coming here every day because of you two! You're not kids!”

“We'll get along from now on, Mom, we promise,” Stephen said, and I nodded even though I knew it was just a front. Anything to make her happy.

“I have a solution. And I'm sure you both will love it. It's a simple offer and if you love me, you'll listen to my words. Ready to hear it?” She asked gently and I nodded, as long as it didn't involve me getting close with this asshole.

“How about you both live together from now on?” She asked with a nervous smile and it felt like she had just dropped a bomb into my head.

“What?” We exclaimed together, glaring at each other in the process and she sighed, taking both our hands in hers.

“Think about it. If you both stay in the same dorm, it would help you both understand each other even better, and then you both can be at peace with each other. Right?” She asked with a hopeful expression and Stephen immediately shook his head, casting me a hateful glance.

“No. Hell no. Fuck no. I'd rather eat sand than live in the same dorm with this asshole.”

    HAYDEN’S POVAdjusting a bow tie shouldn't have felt harder than executing a perfect sliding tackle in the pouring rain, but my fingers were shaking so violently I nearly ripped the silk."Let me get that before you choke yourself, big guy," Blake’s voice cut through the nervous hum of the dressing room. She stepped forward, a brilliant, knowing smirk firmly on her face as she batted my hands away and expertly fixed the knot. She looked stunning in her bridesmaid gown, though she still possessed that sharp, no-nonsense attitude that had kept us all in line since camp. "Can’t have the star striker looking like he’s being held hostage on his own wedding day.""I'm not nervous about the wedding," I grunted, my voice rough. "I’m just... ready. I’ve been ready for years.""We know, man," Amber said, leaning against the doorframe of the suite right beside her. Amber walked over, resting a hand on my shoulder, while Blake gave my tie one final, satisfied pat. "You two earned this. Every

    STEPHEN’S POVThe deafening roar of sixty thousand people vibrating through the stadium turf wasn't just noise… it was a physical force slamming into my chest. The bright, blinding stadium lights cut through the humid evening air, reflecting off the pristine green grass of the United FC home stadium.It was the forty-fourth minute of our very first professional match.The scoreboard overhead read 0-0 against our fiercest conference rivals, the clock ticking down mercilessly toward halftime. The tension in the stadium was taut as a wire, the fans screaming for blood, for a breakthrough, for a sign that the millions of dollars Vanguard had dropped on us wasn't just hype.My lungs were burning, my jersey soaked through with sweat as I marked my run down the left flank. The opposing center-back was tight on me, his shoulder digging into my ribs, trying to crowd my space and cut off my passing lanes.Then, across the pitch, my eyes locked onto the number nine jersey.It was Hayden.He h

  • RIVAL'S TO LOVER'S: My Step Brother Is Now My Roommate    Chapter 194: Multi-Million Dollar Penthouse.

    STEPHEN’S POVIf you had told me two months ago that I’d be standing on the floor to ceiling glass balcony of a multi million dollar penthouse in the heart of the city, looking down at a skyline that actually belonged to my future, I would have told you to go fuck yourself.But here I was.The air up here tasted different. It didn't carry the suffocating, heavy humidity of our old camp or the rancid stench of the scandals that had threatened to bury us alive. It felt sharp, clean, and expensive as hell.Vanguard Group hadn't played around when they finalized our pre-draft corporate acquisition. The moment Hayden and I signed those United FC tier-one affiliate contracts, the corporate handlers essentially handed us the keys to this high-rise paradise. It was a massive, sprawling concrete-and-glass flex of a penthouse, meant to keep their new "assets" comfortable, secure, and entirely isolated from the bullshit below.I leaned against the sleek black steel railing, taking a slow sip

    HAYDEN’S POV:The bass from that fucking campus club was still rattling around inside my skull, matching the rhythmic, heavy throb of the tequila flowing through my veins. It was our last night in this godforsaken town. Our last night in this camp before we packed up every single piece of baggage literal and emotional and drove the hell out of here toward the United FC facility.We had spent the last four hours drinking like the world was ending, celebrating the fact that we were finally free.The group had fractured in the best fucking way possible around midnight. Amber had been eyeing some tall, dark-haired guy by the bar who actually looked at her like she was a person and not a headline, and by one o’clock, she’d given us a sloppy, triumphant wave before trailing him out the front door. Ten minutes later, Blake had hooked her arm through some regular from the gym, looking entirely ready to take whatever she wanted for the night and leave no survivors.That left Stephen and me

    HAYDEN’S POVMy forehead was still resting against Stephen’s, the steady, rhythmic warmth of his breathing anchoring me to the locker room floor, when the heavy metal door of the facility rattled on its hinges.A few weeks ago, a sudden noise would have had us breaking contact instantly, hearts racing with the panicked, defensive instinct to hide what we were. But today, with the weight of two professional contracts sitting on the wooden bench behind us, I kept my hands firmly on Stephen's hips, turning my head just enough to see who was invading our space.Blake walked in first.Her usual high energy cheer posture was completely gone, replaced by a loose, almost breathless exhaustion. But it was her face that made me pause. Her jaw was slack, her eyes wide and glittering under the harsh fluorescent lights.Right behind her was Amber. She was holding her phone tightly against her chest, her fingers trembling so violently against the plastic case that I could hear the faint click of h

    STEPHEN’S POV:The silence of the locker room after everyone else had cleared out was deafening, a stark contrast to the thunderous roar that had been vibrating through my skull just an hour ago. The smell of damp grass, sweat, and deep-heat liniment still clung to the air, but the chaotic energy of the match had finally settled into something thick and heavy.My phone vibrated violently against the wooden bench next to me.I picked it up, my hands still slightly trembling from a combination of lingering adrenaline and pure exhaustion. It was an email. My eyes scanned the header, and my breath hitched instantly in my throat.OFFER OF PROFESSIONAL CONTRACT / NOMINATION FOR THE SENIOR LEAGUE DRAFT PINNACLEFrom: Vanguard Athletics & Sporting Group (Consortium for United FC)My heart hammered against my ribs, a fierce, frantic rhythm that made me dizzy.
