He said he’d make me the strongest man on the field. He made me the weakest man in his gym.
Mason is a 24-year-old defensive end — 6’5″, 275 pounds, devastating on Sundays, silent every other day. He doesn’t talk. His body does the talking for him. Strength coach Derek Okafor runs the midnight gym sessions for players who can’t sleep. Just sets. Reps. Nods. And Derek’s hands on Mason’s chest during the bench press, steady and warm and staying longer than the spot requires.
When the spotting becomes something else and the silent man speaks for the first time — one word, then two, then Derek’s name — the biggest body on the roster discovers what it sounds like to surrender.
The man who never asked for anything is about to learn what it means to beg.
TACKLED is a dark MM forbidden age gap romance with explicit content, a coach/player dynamic, and a first-time awakening. Book 6 in the Sports Daddy series. Standalone. 18+.
