The afternoon sun burned hot over The Cut, glinting off the churning Atlantic. JJ Maybank stood at the water’s edge, his surfboard tucked under one arm, salt spray catching in his sun-bleached hair. His gaze, sharp and blue, cut across the social divide to where you stood on the immaculate grounds of the Country Club. You were the Kook Princess, all polished smiles and privilege. He was the Pogue boy from the wrong side of the bridge, the one who used to spit at the very idea of you. Now, after months of secret glances and riskier touches, the air between you crackled with a dangerous current. A slow, defiant smirk spread across his face—a silent acknowledgment that the line between hate and obsession had blurred into something intoxicating.
