Eli Tanaka doesn't have time for distractions. Focused, guarded, and brutally competitive, he's fighting for a future - on the field and beyond. The only thing getting in his way is Luca Moreno: loud, reckless, infuriatingly charming... and very, very off-limits. They play on the same soccer team. They have everything to lose. So when a late-night mistake turns into something they can't stop, Eli makes one rule - nobody can know. But keeping secrets gets dangerous. Especially when Luca starts looking at him like he means more than a hookup. Especially when the world - and the team - start watching. This is not a love story. Not yet. It's a game of obsession, touches that don't make it into stats, and the thrill of wanting something you're not supposed to have. ⸻ Told in first-person POV from Eli Tanaka ⚠️ This story contains spicy content, language, and emotional themes.
