A Dirty Rivalry

Welcome to Rosegate-where the tuition is obscene, the students are spoiled, and the competition is cutthroat.
Alex Vale and Liam Westbrook have been neck-and-neck since the moment they set foot on campus. Genius rivals. Top of the class. Enemies by reputation... and dangerously obsessed behind closed doors.

Every month, one of them walks away with the title of Scholar of the Month. Every month, they claw tooth and nail to win.

But when rivalry turns into something hotter, darker, and so much more addictive, neither of them is ready for the consequences. Feelings? Forbidden. Distractions? Deadly. And yet...
They can't stop.
Not when jealousy bites.
Not when one of them ends up naked in the other's bed-begging.

It's war. It's lust. It's love in disguise.

From Chapter 10:
"You think you're in charge just 'cause you've got a monster in your pants?"
"Newsflash, Westbrook. I'm still the one riding you."
He grips my hips like he's afraid I'll float away. "Then ride me, baby."
I rock against him once, and his whole body jerks. He's too big. Way too big. The kind of size that should come with a manual and a warning label.
"Fucking hell, Liam-" I gasp, just from touching it.
"Are you trying to split me open?"
"You can take it," he whispers, eyes dark and wide. "You're perfect. You're mine."
No way I'm backing down now.
I slick myself quickly-too quickly, maybe, because when I lower myself, it's insane. The stretch makes me shake. My thighs tremble, and I gasp so hard I lose all my breath.
"F-Fuck," I whimper, bracing my hands on his chest.
"You okay?" he breathes, suddenly not cocky at all-worried, soft, wrecked.
I nod. Barely. "Shut up and let me adjust."
