What Is Collusion In Fantasy Football Novels & Stories

The way he said it when softer. Lance collected these details like treasures. And worse, he replayed them when Ragnar wasn’t there. He started getting possessive in ways he disguised as jokes. When women flirted with Ragnar at gatherings, Lance would slide into the conversation with that lazy smile of his and derail it completely. When rookies crowded Ragnar asking questions, Lance would appear beside him and answer half of them himself just to make them leave faster. When Ylva occupied Ragnar for too long, Lance would become insufferable for the rest of the day.

She nodded once. He smiled, a dangerous, rictus snarl that he was having to deal with someone so stupid. “And you don’t think people are going to call foul or collusion? It’s no secret that we were together. People know about our history. They’ll think it’s some type of secret agreement to expand the pack or form an alliance outside of politics.” He looked to me. “Has anything like this happened before?” “Yes,” I replied, somewhat surprised at the question. “But it didn’t end well.”

Cara said "What's that?" Noah said. "Do you guys have the same scent? Because I don't know whose scent I'm smelling right now" "No, this belongs to Sean. I'm wearing his jacket." Noah opened Sean's jacket and the difference in their scent was very clear. Cara turned to Sean and so did Sean. "This is yours?" Cara said. "Yeah" Sean said. "Hey, do you want to have dinner together? It would be cool if we could hang out together right?" Noah said, but Cara and Sean's eyes still met.

he asked with a shrug. The heck? “Collaboration? What exactly is that supposed to mean?” He went on with a sinister smile. “All you have to do is attest to a few stories, and I will see to it that he and his bandwagon are escorted out of this pack and banned for life.” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. “Stories of what, Collin?” I asked anyway. “Harassment,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper. “You are unbelievable,” I said with a gasp. “You’re asking me to lie about something as dire as that, just so you can satisfy your ego? Or have an upper hand in a petty quarrel?”

Serena moved to the second name. “Jonathan Ridgewell.” Billy laughed bitterly. “Ridgewell Governance Group.” Sofia leaned back. “So the consulting firms benefiting from the forecasts are literally sitting in the strategy meetings.” Thomas rubbed his temples. “That’s direct collusion.” Emily studied the final name on the list. When she read it, her pulse slowed. Alexander. The room noticed her reaction immediately. Daniel looked at the screen. “Alexander Cole?” Emily didn’t answer. Leah checked the record again. “Yes.”

Absalom wasn't just knowledgeable; he was also an industry elite. Micah understood. He completely understood! “So, it was Dimas and Harmonia who found the weakness in the beast colosseum, and they colluded to destroy my cash cow?!” With that said, Micah sneered a few times and slammed his fist hard on the table. “What a treacherous couple! I must make them pay a bloody price!” When Absalom heard Micah’s words, he still appeared as calm as before, but his expression turned cold. “Collusion requires conditions.” He spoke again.

Dante said, his voice low and roughened by a sudden, sharp awareness of the way she was looking at him, "we do it as a single block. No more separate strategies. No more secrets about who we’re talking to." ​"Fifty-one percent," she reminded him. "That was the deal." ​"It’s more than shares now, Bella." He leaned in, his forehead almost touching hers. He could see the gold flecks in her irises, the intensity of a woman who had survived a desert and come back for more. "If we go into that room and fail, they’ll use the marriage as evidence of collusion. They’ll say we conspired to defraud the board. We won't just lose the company. We’ll lose the right to be in the same room as the kids."

I stared at him, confusion etched on my face. "My father, he gave me a month to find other options. My marriage with Trisha is only for business so if I can give him better options, he won't force it on me." "So, what are you going to do? Who are you approaching?" "His name is Jonathan Railings. He's the CEO of the Railings Corp. It's a conglomerate in London. They're in every industry and recently, they ventured into the hospitality business; hotels, restaurants, resorts, even Aviation. Everything! and they're doing so well. Our company hasn't really planted itself abroad and this can be an opportunity to do that. If I can get him to partner with us, it'll be a hundred times better than par

The tension in the room extinguished, they returned to painting in a companionable silence for a long while each lost in their own thoughts of the other. Then, Howie Day’s Collide started playing over the speakers. Dani’s arm seemed to stop painting of its own accord. This had been one of the songs they had both loved and listened to in the bed of Levi’s truck many times, looking at the stars. The memories flooded her as she listened to the haunting chorus about people making mistakes, falling down but finding the person you are meant to be with anyway. Love conquering all.
