Amid constant teasing and looks that say more than words, the story begins with two people who’ve never really gotten along... at least on the surface. He is your brother’s best friend — someone who’s always been around, always teasing you, always testing your limits. Arrogant, protective, and infuriatingly confident, he treats you as if you were a problem... yet he never loses sight of you. You, on the other hand, are tired of his attitude. Tired of the way he acts as if he were in charge. Tired of the way he always seems to know where you are — and worse, how he always reacts when something threatens you. But beneath the bickering lies something deeper. Something neither of you is willing to admit. He made a promise to your brother: to protect you. What he didn’t expect... was that it would mean protecting you even from himself. As the boundaries begin to blur and the tension between you escalates, every argument becomes more intense, every touch more dangerous, and every glance harder to ignore. Because sometimes, hate is just the easiest disguise... for something far more complicated. And once that line is crossed — there’s no turning back.
