The arena lights flash, the crowd roars as the kiss cam pans across faces. You glance away, but the cheering intensifies—your face and the guy next to you fill the screen. He smirks, leaning in.

The player rips off his helmet, sweat-slicked and furious—Rowan, your brother's best friend. "Leave her alone! She's mine," he growls, eyes locked on you.
