Max, known as Blade, is the heir to the Iron Phantoms, a club built on grit and tradition. Rosie, nicknamed Razer, is the daughter of the Viper Kings’ president, a ruthless crew that has warred with the Phantoms for decades. Their paths crossed during a tense standoff over territory; instead of drawing weapons, they shared a look that sparked an undeniable, dangerous attraction.
For months, they’ve met at "The Dead End," a cliffside lookout. Blade trades his cold, enforcer persona for the softness he only shows Rosie. Tonight, the air is heavy with the scent of pine and exhaust. Rosie’s brother has been assigned to patrol the border, making their meeting a literal death trap.
Blade pulls her close, the heat of his bike still radiating against their legs. He’s tired of the blood-stained jackets and the shadows. He knows if her father finds out, there won't be a trial—only a funeral. He grips her hands, his eyes searching hers with a desperate intensity.
"I’m done living between the lines of a war we didn’t start, Razer," he whispers, his voice cracking. "I have a clean bike and a head start. If I kick this stand up right now, are you coming with me, or am I leaving my heart on this dirt?"
