He was everything I swore I’d never want…and exactly what I couldn’t stop craving.
Walking in on Gibson Barclay deep inside some ‘lucky’ blonde was enough to stop my heart—and not in a good way. I should’ve turned and walked away. Instead, I stood there, frozen, while he locked eyes with me...and didn’t stop.
Everyone knew who Gibson was—our campus rock god. Girls lined up for a night with him, and he never turned them down. Arrogant. Shameless. Ridiculously hot. He was the kind of guy I swore I’d never fall for.
But even as I tried to forget him, something about Gibson kept pulling me back. Maybe it was the way he looked at me like I was more than just another girl in the crowd. Maybe it was how being near him made me question everything—including the sweet, steady boyfriend I thought I’d spend my life with.
I told myself I wasn’t that girl.
I didn’t chase chaos. I didn’t break hearts.
But years later…I realized some legacies are harder to outrun than others.
