Elliot Hayes never asked to carry a surname that weighs like a crown. Son of Gareth "The King" Hayes, a legend of Arclift, he grew up in the shadow of a tragedy that turned his father into myth and left him stranded as the so-called "Prince". At St Alban's, a school where the game borders on religion, Elliot only wanted to disappear into the cold stone corridors. But when Ollie, Mason, and Theo draw him into their orbit, he discovers there might be space to be more than just someone's shadow.

Between training sessions, rivalries, and bonds forged both in silences and laughter, Elliot stumbles upon something he never expected: belonging. Yet to claim the right to rise he must confront rivals, secrets, and above all, his own hesitation.

In Lifters, glory lies not only in scoring points on the pitch, but in discovering how to hold the weight when everything threatens to collapse.All Rights Reserved

With successful parents boasting about his 'pretend' success, Asher feels as though the life he is living was never his to begin with, and a home of happiness is far out of reach. While the luxurious life is envied by most, Asher is only followed by social anxiety and suffocation in a life he doesn't want. The only place where he feels like he can genuinely escape is the little flower shop down the street, where he doesn't expect to find the school's star football player. Leo Gaines is Greenville's golden boy who is destined for success in the NFL.

After multiple encounters with the mysterious boy from the flower shop he works at, Leo soon realizes that he can't help falling for the flower boy. Can Leo find the relationship of his dreams while trying to find a future in a world that exudes masculinity? Will Asher finally find authenticity that will break him free from the marionette puppet he is staged to play? Find out in "Flowers for Football."

River Moore is your all-star athlete. After switching schools and accepting a starting position on the basketball team, he wants to continue his college athlete lifestyle and live his life to the fullest.

When Alex and River are reunited six years after their unbreakable friendship dies, Alex thinks he will finally get the answers to his long-awaited questions.

His secret Lover | BxB by Author_K_

Noah Hayes is the kind of guy everyone notices-fun, confident, and the star quarterback of Riverview High. Everyone loves him, and everyone assumes they know him. But no one knows the truth that keeps him up at night: Noah likes boys, and he hates himself for it. He's built walls so high even he can't see over them. Julian Bennett is the opposite of Noah in every way. Quiet, shy, and sweet, he fades into the background without trying. But behind his timid demeanor lies a bold, unspoken confidence about who he is, even if no one else really notices. When Noah and Julian get paired together in class, neither expects anything beyond awkward study sessions and polite conversation. But sparks fly, and soon Julian becomes Noah's tutor-both in academics and in feelings Noah has tried to bury for years. One kiss turns into a secret relationship, and Noah finally allows himself to feel something real. For a while, everything seems perfect. Until the pressure catches up. Torn between the world he's built and the world he secretly craves, Noah makes a choice that shatters Julian's heart and leaves them both broken. When Julian shows up at one of Noah's games with his friends, Noah pretends not to care. But on the field, with the roar of the crowd and the ache of regret, Noah realizes he's at a crossroads. Will he keep running from himself, or will he risk everything to prove that what he and Julian had wasn't just a secret, but something real?
