Gossip always goes around at Falcon Elite Prep.
Everyone knows Nate Wilson, the most popular football quarterback and every girlโ€™s crush.
But thereโ€™s more behind those drop-dead gorgeous eyes and that killer smile โ€ฆ
Heโ€™s a notorious heartbreaker โ€ฆ
And heโ€™s got his eyes set on me.
The twisted games he plays are cruel and dangerous.
He teases and tempts me โ€ฆ just to ruin me.
Because I know the one thing he doesnโ€™t want anyone to know.
A big, dirty secret โ€ฆ
And thereโ€™s nothing bad boys wonโ€™t do to keep a secret buried.

โ€œYour phoneโ€™s not here. Iโ€™m sorry to disappoint you,โ€ he says, stepping closer. โ€œAnything else I can help you with?โ€

โ€œI โ€ฆ uh โ€ฆโ€ God, why am I this way around him? It doesnโ€™t make any sense. Heโ€™s a bully. I should hate him. But oh my God, I want to kiss him so badly too, and it shows.

For every step he takes closer, I take one back even though my body hungers to get close. I shouldnโ€™t give in; itโ€™s not right. Everyone in this school thinks heโ€™s guilty. Hell, maybe even I do. I donโ€™t know yet.

But what I do know is that heโ€™s beyond bad, and Iโ€™m melting into a puddle just from that dirty look in his eyes as he traps me in a corner. No way out. This is it. Weโ€™re in the showers backed up against a wall. Hormones rage through my body as he places a hand on the wall beside me and cocks his head.

โ€œAre you still scared of me?โ€ he asks.

I rub my lips together. I canโ€™t say because I donโ€™t know the answer.

โ€œI donโ€™t โ€ฆ know. I donโ€™t know anything anymore,โ€ I whisper.

โ€œYou donโ€™t know, or you donโ€™t want to know?โ€

I try to find the truth in his eyes, but all I find is hunger โ€ฆ a kind of hunger that you can feel in your bones and consumes your every waking thought.

โ€œYouโ€™re scared that you actually like me,โ€ he murmurs. His forehead leans against mine. โ€œYouโ€™re scared of what might happen if you let me kiss you,โ€ he whispers, his mouth a hairโ€™s breadth away from mine. โ€œYouโ€™re scared of what might happen if you let me have you โ€ฆ If you become mine.โ€

Suddenly, the showers turn on right above us. Fuck, I mustโ€™ve hit them with my back. Weโ€™re getting soaking wet, but heโ€™s not moving โ€ฆ and neither am I.

โ€œYou threw me in the pool. Hung my panties on my locker. Made fun of me in front of your friends,โ€ I mutter, trying to create more distance, trying to push him away, trying to make up reasons this shouldnโ€™t happen. โ€œYou heard Layla when she saidโ€”โ€

He places a finger on my lips, droplets of water dripping down onto my skin. โ€œI donโ€™t give a fuck what Layla says or thinks. I only give a fuck about what you think of me.โ€

His words strike me to my core.

Never in a million years did I imagine this happening, that Iโ€™d be standing here getting soaking wet in the locker rooms with Falcon Elite Prepโ€™s worst bad boy, the star athlete, and most popular guy at school โ€ฆ and that Iโ€™d want nothing more than to kiss him.

โ€œI did those things to get my way, to get you to fear me, to get you to submit โ€ฆโ€ he murmurs. โ€œTo get what I want.โ€

โ€œThe photos,โ€ I reply.

โ€œAnd you,โ€ he whispers, gazing straight into my eyes, setting my heart on fire. โ€œI want you, and I know you want me too.โ€

Our lips touch, and sparks fly. The first touch is always the best, where our lips still linger on should-I-or-should-I-not. But we both know that phase has long since passed. I canโ€™t say no to him anymore.

And suddenly, his kisses arenโ€™t so soft anymore. His mouth claims mine with a greed Iโ€™ve never felt before, and it excites me to my core. His hand is on my waist, his body against mine, and I can feel every ridge of his muscles, every inch of skin against my own โ€ฆ and the bulge poking against my belly.

It turns me on like nothing else ever has.

The hand that was on the wall entwines with mine as our tongues lock and engage in a battle of lust. Suddenly, he grabs my wrists and pins them up against the wall, and I canโ€™t. Fucking. Breathe.
