Especially when your idol starts looking back.

They were born to be enemies. Erling Haaland is the most powerful beast of his kind-the one hunters have chased for centuries, hiding his true nature behind the life of an ordinary footballer at Borussia Dortmund. Jude Bellingham is the son of the greatest hunter alive, raised to find and destroy the very monster he would one day fall for. What started as cold distance grew into unbreakable best friends. Erling became Jude's fierce protector, standing between him and every bully, every hurt, every fear. Jude slowly fell in love-quietly, secretly, terrified that the truth would ruin everything. But neither knew the cruel twist of fate tying them together: the boy who watches over him is the beast his father has sworn to kill. And the hunter's son he loves is the one destined to end him. When secrets unravel and duty clashes with love, will Jude choose the legacy he was born into... or the heart that chose him first?

Jude. For fucks sake you know I'm on a date, what is it?' The call was silent for a few seconds, the only sound Erling could hear was Jude's quickened breath. 'Erling.'

I think I've been making mistakes for weeks.' ^ Cheeky sneak peak :) - Jude Bellingham and Erling Haaland were two footballers playing for Borussia Dortmund, both desperate to convince themselves their friendship is platonic.

He swallowed hard, looking down at Erling. "An old friend?" Jude said, his voice dropping low. He shook his head, letting out a quiet, disbelieving laugh. "Erling... I've been in love with you for three years." Erling froze. His hands slowly came down from his face. His fingers unclasped, showing his red cheeks, bloodshot eyes, and his mouth slightly open. He didn't move. He didn't even blink. For ten seconds, nobody said a word. "You..." Erling stammered, his voice coming out so quiet and thin he barely sounded like himself. He pushed himself up from the chair, rising unsteadily to his full height. "What... what did you just say?" "You heard me," Jude said softly, staying right where he was as Erling stood up. He looked straight into Erling's wide, trembling eyes. "I said I've been in love with you for three years, Erling. Three whole years."
