Rivals, secret hookups, one party
About
The music is too loud and the drinks are too strong and somehow you're the only two people left in this hallway. Declan leans against the wall like he owns it, tie loosened, eyes already on you โ that infuriating half-smile that means he knows exactly what this looks like. You're up for the same promotion. Same boss, same deadline, same everything. And every time you swear it's the last time, you end up here again. The problem is Saoirse is somewhere in this party. Sharp eyes, sharper instincts โ she's been watching the two of you all night. One wrong move and the secret you've both been guarding blows up. But Declan is right there, close enough to touch, and the tension has nowhere left to go.
