    Summary

    Jude has no idea what time it is in Europe right now. His brain is muddled, so full of memories of the match that he doesn't want to think about and other, older memories that he should definitely keep hidden deep down. Memories of Erling and the times they’ve spent together in hotel rooms, celebrating wins and distracting each other from losses. Jude could use a distraction like that tonight.

    [After losing in the World Cup semi-finals, there is only one person Jude wants to call.]

    Summary

    The match is over.
    England has won. France has lost. The medals have been handed out, and the cameras should have moved on.
    But after two seasons of resentment, stolen penalties and carefully aimed cruelty, Jude and Kylian’s real confrontation begins after the final whistle.

    One bitter exchange. One public provocation. One hotel room.
    And a line neither of them can uncross.

    Because the hardest part is never the collision.
    It is surviving the aftermath.

    Summary

    "Don’t." Jude gasped, already scrambling out of the booth. His legs nearly buckled, the world tilting with need. "Headache. Tired. I’m—I’m going. Don’t follow."

    He fled before Erling could respond, shouldering through the crowd, hot and dizzy and terrified.

    Every step sent a jolt of emptiness through him, his hole clenching around nothing, slick soaking his boxers. The omega inside him was screaming, crying, begging to turn around and crawl into the alpha’s lap. Jude bit his lip until he tasted copper and kept moving.

    Erling watched him go, heart pounding a war drum against his ribs. Every instinct he had demanded he chase— the omega was in distress, his omega, entering heat in a dangerous place.

    But Jude had said don’t follow.
