chapter 1

Lila POV "RYAN! PLEASE!" I screamed until my throat burned, my voice cracking with desperation.My heart was breaking as I watched my stepbrother struggle on the ice below. This wasn't just any game. This was THE game. The one that would decide his entire future. College scouts filled the arena, notebooks ready, waiting to choose the next hockey superstar.And Ryan was losing."Come on, Ryan" I whispered, gripping the cold metal railing so hard my knuckles turned white. "You can do this. You have to do this."I had been in love with Ryan for three long, painful years. Every morning I watched him eat breakfast, wishing he would look at me the way he looked at his hockey trophies. Every night I dreamed of him holding me, kissing me, wanting me back.But Ryan only saw me as his annoying little stepsister. Nothing more.The arena was so loud I could barely think. Thousands of people were on their feet, screaming, cheering, hoping. The championship game was tied with only two minutes left

Lila POV "What I want," Derek said slowly, his voice dripping with dark satisfaction, "is very simple."I stood there frozen, my papers still stuck to his wet chest like my secrets were literally glued to him. The hallway felt like it was closing in around me. This couldn't be happening. This couldn't be real."You're going to be my girlfriend," Derek announced casually, like he was talking about the weather.My brain stopped working completely."WHAT?" I choked out, my voice cracking like a broken whistle.Derek's evil smile grew wider as he watched me fall apart in front of him. "You heard me perfectly, Lila Richmond. You're going to be my girlfriend. We're going to hold hands, go on dates, kiss in the hallways. The whole show.""Are you insane?" I gasped, backing away from him like he had just grown horns. "I would never in a million years be your girlfriend! I hate you! Everyone knows I hate you!""Do they?" Derek asked, tilting his head like a predator studying its prey. "Becaus

chapter 3

Lila POV "Cassandra Williams," I whispered, the name tasting like poison on my tongue.The girl pulling away from Ryan's lips was my worst nightmare made flesh. Those same cruel blue eyes that had haunted my middle school years. That same perfect blonde hair that had whipped around as she laughed at my pain. That same cold smile that had destroyed my confidence for years.My bully. My tormentor. The girl who had made my life hell for three straight years.And now she was kissing my stepbrother like she owned him."Lila!" Ryan's voice cut through my shock. "There you are!"They broke apart and walked toward me, Ryan's arm wrapped around Cassandra's tiny waist. I felt like I was going to throw up. This couldn't be happening. This couldn't be real."I want you to meet my girlfriend," Ryan said with the biggest smile I had ever seen on his face. "This is Cassandra. She just transferred here from Jefferson High school, and she's already the new cheerleading captain."Jefferson High school

chapter 4

Lila POV "If you tell Ryan one single thing about our past," she said sweetly, "I'll make sure he knows the real truth about who the bully really was.”My blood turned to ice. She was going to lie about everything. Make Ryan think I was the mean one. "Sweet dreams, little sister," Cassandra whispered, her voice like poison. "You look terrible," Derek said as I walked into school the next morning. I felt terrible too. I had barely slept all night, thinking about Cassandra's threat and the fake dating deal I had made with Derek. My eyes were red and puffy from crying, and I probably looked like I had been hit by a truck. "Thanks," I muttered, trying to walk past him. But Derek grabbed my arm gently and pulled me to the side of the hallway. "Hey," he said, his voice softer than I expected. "Are you okay? You look like you've been crying all night." I stared at him in surprise. Was Derek Stone actually being nice to me? "I'm fine," I lied, pulling my arm away from his tou
