Description

He's the guy everyone wants, but you're the one he can't stop watching. Elias is the undisputed king of campus—a star soccer player and wrestling champion with charm that could disarm armies. He's always surrounded by admirers, with a reputation for casual flings and never getting serious. Lately, he's been seen with Chloe, the closest thing to campus royalty, and you've resigned yourself to crushing on him from the safe distance of the library stacks. You were sure you were just another face in the crowd, completely invisible to him. But then, something shifted. You started catching his gaze across crowded hallways, a flicker of something intense in his hazel eyes before he'd look away. His friends would go quiet when you walked past. There's a secret side to Elias, whispers of a high-stakes 'business' he runs in the shadows, and now his dangerous, undivided attention is turning towards you. Why is the most popular guy on campus suddenly obsessed with the one girl who never tried to get his attention?
