"You're actually upset right now? Look at everything the world has given you, Luke." "And that's great, but I'd rather have you." • the story before "count on me" by sircalyum • book 1 // smut included //

"It feels as though, all this time, I was looking right at him without seeing him for what he truly is." "And what's that?" "Beautiful." Rory has always hated Luke. Luke has always hated Rory. And nothing could ever change that.

It was only a matter of time until Noelle Simon and Calum Hood met, with her sister dating his best friend. But the circumstances of their meeting weren't exactly normal, what with Noelle being dragged to a part of Brooklyn she rarely frequented, right into a building where two men were fighting in a ring. The kind of bare knuckle, (almost) anything goes kind of fighting that was illegal. It was only a matter of time until Noelle Simon and Calum Hood fell for each other. And when they fell. . . They fell hard. -- warning: may contain smut. --------- Chapters 18 to the Epilogue are deleted off Wattpad due to the book's publication.
