I knew all his hangout joints. I spotted Jackson in the distance, surrounded by his classmates. They were chatting and laughing by the large oak tree that stood proudly at the edge of the schoolyard. Drawing a deep breath, I prepared myself for the conversation ahead. But as I drew closer, my heart sank. Jackson was locked in a passionate embrace with a stunning woman, her long, flowing hair and captivating smile outshining even the brightest of autumn leaves.

Rain lashed against the floor-to-ceiling windows, lightning flashing like a warning across the skyline, but the true electricity was trapped inside the room—between three people bound by lust, rivalry, and a dangerous kind of love. Aria stood frozen, her breath shallow, as Ethan and Nathaniel’s rivalry circled her like predators closing in on prey. Ethan’s hand was still firm around her waist, possessive, grounding her against the rapid thunder of his heartbeat.

What did he mean? "It's your old lover's birthday. If I go there, won't it ruin the chance for you to chat about the good old days?" She pouted. That was a sweet talk. Zac reached out his finger and lightly clicked on it. "Right now, Leila and I are only good friends. You are my wife. I hope you two can be friends too." Friend? How is that possible? Have you ever seen a rival in love turn into a friend? Enemies in love are incompatible as fire and water. They are incompatible with each other. It's the relationship that only one can survive between you and me!

“All those extra nights are paying off. You really know how to get me there.” Reid looked around quickly, making sure the last few stragglers were gone before his hand landed on my hip, pulling me closer than he should in the open. “Damn right they are. You’re swimming like the beast I knew you could be, but keep your head down. Some of the rivals from the States have been sniffing around, asking about your sudden jump.” His thumb pressed into my skin, possessive, sliding under the edge of my suit just enough to make my breath hitch.

Every touch between Aria and her lovers became a wound Riri couldn't heal. Nova's clever laugh, Selene's icy possessiveness, Athena's calm and grounding hands, Iris's electricity dancing against Aria's throat. Elara's bite marks — bold, territorial — claimed what Riri could never openly have.

Now, with the forest closing in around us, I only wanted to get this over with quickly. His wolf gleamed in his eyes just as mine did in me. We drew close, steps syncing in that fatal moment. Our hands reached out, marks searing as they met. An invisible chain locked between us, forcing the bond from our lips. The words came unbidden, crashing out at the exact same time. “You are my love rival.” The bond sealed instantly. It didn’t matter that my chest tightened, that his eyes mirrored my shock. The bond didn’t lie. Love rivals.
