I don't make mistakes. I fix them. It is the only thing I have never gotten wrong.

So when the front office orders me to fake a relationship with the enforcer they can't afford to keep and can't afford to cut, I do what I always do. Control the narrative. Control the man. Control the fallout.

Except Zach Novak knew me before the armor. Before I walked away from him the first time. Before I learned that vulnerability is not a weakness. It is a weapon someone else will use against you.

He is supposed to be a problem. An aging fighter with a temper and a shelf life, one bad night from being cut. But the man who bleeds for his teammates and goes still when he touches me is nothing like the headlines they keep writing.

And somewhere between the staged kisses and the real ones, I stop managing him and start needing him.

Then the leaks start.

Photos that should not exist. Stories built to ruin me. And behind all of it, the ex-husband who already taught me exactly how far a man will go to break the woman who got away.

Now the fake relationship is the only thing holding me up. And the man I was sent to control is the only one in my corner who is not on someone's payroll.

If I trust him, I hand my ex the last weapon I have.
