Romance Trope: enemies to lovers When my high school arch nemesis weasels his way into my friend group, our bitter rivalry starts right where it left off. The back-and-forth trading of insults is a comforting place I'm familiar with, but when the banter starts feeling a little like flirting, I panic-spiral, pumping the brakes before things can escalate. I let my guard down around this man once, and the only souvenir I got was a major case of embarrassment. There's no way I'm making the same mistake twice. But when he starts doing sweet things for me and doubling down on the seemingly innocent touching, I can feel myself wanting to forget all the reasons he became my arch nemesis in the first place. I must fortify my walls because I can absolutely, under no circumstances allow this man the opportunity to best me yet again.

This is a spinoff of my Kings & Saviours series. I strongly suggest reading those books first. Book 1: SALVATION Book 2: KING Book 3: REVELATION * Jensen: Yeah, I've been with multiple girls before, but never like this. Never in the bathroom of my boss's wedding. I haven't been able to take my eyes off them. Elena introduced them to me and as soon as they both smiled at me I was a goner. They dragged me in here and I'd be a fucking idiot not to give them exactly what they want. Maeve: As soon as he shook my hand, his touch had my heart racing. I glance at Maria who gives me a sly smile, and we both grab one of his hands and drag him into the bathroom. The sound of his quiet chuckle as we back him up into one of the stalls sends a shiver travelling down my spine, and I watch as Maria's lips graze his neck and she starts sucking on his skin. He pulls me into him and I latch onto the other side of his neck. His fingers are in my hair and he lets out a muttered 'fuck' that makes my pussy clench. Oh, this night just got so much better. *Trigger Warnings* Detailed sex scenes, BDSM, drug use, violence, gore, torture, murder, detailed rapes scenes, sex trafficking, kidnapping, sexual assault, mentions of child sexual assault, attempted suicide.
