May just wanted to scroll-a casual peek at her ex-boyfriend Landon's Instagram. Everything was going harmlessly, until she accidentally liked his post. To cover up the ultimate cringe, she spins a lie: she has a boyfriend. Except she doesn't. Not even close. But when Landon shows up at her favorite cafe, she improvises, pointing at a clueless barista and calling him her "boyfriend." 😫 Now May is trapped in a web of lies bigger than her Instagram feed - a fake boyfriend, a charming ex who doesn't know the truth, and a cafe guy who has no idea he's part of this disaster. 😅 © SLWrites 2026.

"I huff out an uncomfortable breath. There is no reality where I would want Jake to know what we're doing. I already feel like I'm in the getaway car trying to create distance from the mess I created in June. I don't want to know what he would say if he knew that I am voluntarily returning to the scene of the crime. Or that each time his hands touch my body-just like they were thirty minutes ago-I can feel the memories like a flame on my skin in the shape of Cal's fingerprints. One that I use the feeling like a trophy, something I keep only for myself. He would be disgusted if he knew I pull it out when I'm alone, letting myself relive the infidelity over and over again."

He's made it known that he wants her, and now that she has no choice but to talk to him, he's about to show her just how badly.

"Is this right?" Aiden whispered, fingers trembling inside of me. "Tell me what to do." And then his teammate walked in. Ψ The first time Aiden Wilder touched me, he asked if he was doing it right. The second time, he begged me to teach him more. The third time, we weren't alone. Aiden is the NHL's #1 draft pick. Nineteen. Six-foot-one of raw talent and a contract worth millions. He's fast on the ice, awkward off it... and a virgin. I was hired to coach him through fame. Help him deal with the media, the fans, the pressure. Not teach him how to take off my clothes with shaking hands. Not guide his mouth between my thighs and whisper praise into his ear. Not fall for the way he moans like he means it. But then his teammate Luke Mitchell walked in-older, cockier, and definitely not as straight as everyone thinks. He saw what we were doing. He didn't walk away. He asked if we needed help. And Aiden? He said yes. Now there's three of us. No rules. No labels. No going back. But somewhere between the lessons, the touches, and the kisses we shouldn't have shared...someone caught feelings. And I'm scared it wasn't just one of them.
