I played the game. There were rules. There was strategy. There was always an escape. No one knew how my past dictated my every move. I did everything to keep the nightmares of my childhood at bay. I reveled in my playboy reputation. Then Sarah Hodges made a wrong move. One that left me wondering how to match her play. We weren't supposed to work. She was everything I wasn't. But she had secrets of her own. Ones that left me shocked and furious. Ones that gave me a leg up. Or so I thought. It only took one quick game to land us in checkmate, something Wellington University never saw coming.
