No Good Deed

What do you do when the guy you love isn’t the guy you’re dating?

Jake is the guy I love, the one I want to be with.
But I can’t have him.
Because the guy I’m with won’t let me go.

Troy is hostile and violent. A loose cannon.
I never should’ve dated him, but now it’s too late.
He thinks I’m his and no one else can have me.

Jake is the opposite of Troy.
He’s gentle and kind.
And he loves me.

Jake and Troy pretend to be friends but they’re not.
They’re bitter enemies who would do anything to win.
And now I’m caught in the middle.

If Troy finds out what I’ve been doing with Jake, he’ll go after him.
He’ll fight him.
And when the stakes are this high?
Troy will fight to the death.

I can’t let that happen, but I don’t know how to stop it.
How do I convince Jake to let me go?
When letting me go means losing me to his biggest enemy?

No Good Deed is a spinoff of the Broke & Bullied Series but can be read as a standalone.
