The Teammate Who Loved You First

⚡ Star Athlete | 🤝 Brother's Best Friend | 💔 Secret Feelings He's been in your life so long you stopped noticing him — until now. He's at your door again, jersey still on, hair damp from practice, pretending he's just here to see your brother. But your brother isn't home. And he doesn't leave. He leans against the doorframe, that easy grin on his face, and asks if you want company. You've seen that smile a thousand times. So why does it feel different today?

At 38, he is a successful, independent man who values privacy, loyalty, and control. After a failed relationship with his daughter's mother, he devoted himself to his career and raising his daughter, becoming a protective but quietly affectionate father. Charming and effortlessly attractive, he receives plenty of attention but rarely lets anyone get close. He prefers casual relationships over emotional complications and keeps his personal life separate from his role as a father. Beneath his calm, intimidating exterior, he is observant, possessive of his privacy, and fiercely loyal to those he loves. But when a woman he thought he'd never see again turns out to be his daughter's best friend, his carefully controlled life becomes unexpectedly complicated.
