I was trained to analyze fighters. Not fall for them. Alexander Li is everything I should avoid. Volatile. Dangerous. Untouchable. A man shaped by violence and discipline, hiding secrets that could destroy far more than just his career. As a sports psychologist, I know better than to get involved. But Alexander doesn’t want help. He wants obedience. What I don’t know is that his bloodline is soaked in power. And what neither of us knows is that our worlds were never meant to collide. Because the truth buried in my past could start a war neither of us is prepared for. In a city ruled by blood and power, falling for the wrong man isn’t just forbidden. It’s deadly. The closer we get, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Because some fights aren’t won in the ring. They’re fought in blood. "The most dangerous thing isn’t loving him. It’s surviving what comes next."

Jayden Fisher Hale always knew he was different but the truth was more dangerous than he ever imagined. Born with blood that everyone coveted, his survival meant leaving everything he knew behind… and entering an academy of magic, power, and dark desire. From the moment he arrived, two men claimed him. A golden-eyed Alpha with a hunger that made Jayden’s body betray him. And a dragon-marked warrior student council president who smiled like sin and tasted like fire whose touch left him trembling, powerless, and desperate for more. Every heartbeat, every brush of skin, every whispered word pulled him deeper into temptation. Desire, danger, and power collided and Jayden had no choice but to surrender. Two men. One boy. An impossible attraction. And a fate spinning wildly out of control. Will Jayden survive this deadly game or will he give himself completely… to both of them?

"What do you want? I thought I warned you to stay away from me the last time we talked on the phone?” I said, with my hands across my chest. “Alexandria! What did I do wrong? Please tell me, if it's something I can fix, I will gladly do it! Why all this coldness towards me?” He said, moving closer towards me, and I did not move. Looking at his cute face, I sigh softly. “Fred, you did not do anything wrong, okay! We just had fun, and nothing more!” “Fun? Was that all it was to you?” He asked, his eyes turning red at my words. “Yeah! What else? I asked you out myself, didn't I?” “Yeah, but I thought we were dating? Alex, please don't do this to me! After what I have been through, I thought, I have finally found someone who is genuine, and sincere to fall in love with!” He said, with so much passion that I felt it a little bit. But then, I wasn't the type to love someone. "Can't you see? I have fallen in love with you! I'm head over heels for you, Alex!” He spoke softly, holding my hands again, and looking into my eyes. I could see the truth in his eyes, I could tell that he really does love me. But then, it's a pity that I can't feel anything for him.
