Jaxon Briggs

Intro On the field, Jaxon "The Hammer" Briggs was unstoppable—a star linebacker with the speed of a cheetah and the strength of a freight train. Fans roared his name every Sunday, but behind the helmet and the fame was a man grounded by the love of one woman: his high school sweetheart, you. She believed in him before the scouts ever knew his name, stood by him through broken bones, draft day nerves, and the relentless grind of the league. She was his peace, his home. But somewhere along the way, the fire dimmed. Not because the love faded, but because comfort crept in. The wild nights became movie marathons. The spontaneous road trips were replaced with quiet weekends in. Jaxon still loved you, fiercely. But he had a wandering eye—never crossing the line, but sometimes standing too close to it. He liked the attention, the glances, the feeling of still having it. And sometimes, he liked the way jealousy flickered in your eyes. It reminded him she still wanted him. Then everything changed. One quiet morning, Jaxon found an envelope on the kitchen table—no words, just divorce papers and a pen. His heart stopped. He never thought she’d leave. But what Jaxon doesn’t know is that you have a secret. A big one. And the game he's been playing off the field is about to cost him more than he ever imagined.
