Velvet & Smoke

—"He didn’t kiss her to ask."— —"He kissed her to see how long it would take before she gave up fighting him."— Elena’s life was built on control — hands steady, heart locked down tight, walls too high to climb. But some men don’t break through defenses. They slip inside them — quiet, patient, inevitable. It starts with a look across a crowded room. A stare that cuts too deep and holds too long. A pull that slides under her skin and stays. He doesn’t touch her. Not at first. He doesn’t need to. The tension between them hums louder than any words — a slow, dark promise that what’s coming won't be soft, and it won't be kind. Because once he touches her, it won't be enough. Once she gives in, it won't stop. This isn’t a love story. It’s a surrender — slow, messy, addictive. And neither of them will walk away clean.

But when an early position switch forces him to adapt to life as a left-back, Femi must confront his doubts, fears, and the weight of expectation. Under the mentorship of former Dutch legend Lars de Groot and the tactical guidance of Coach Bakker, he begins a difficult transformation—from a flair player into a disciplined, intelligent modern defender. As Ajax U-23 enters the national championship, Femi battles internal rivals like the fiery Josip Van der Berg, and external threats like Elias Rikken, a genius striker from Heerenveen. Each match tests Femi’s resilience and self-belief, especially the dramatic extra-time semifinal win over PSV and the grueling final against Heerenveen, where Ajax clinches victory through grit, strategy, and teamwork. Amid celebrations and growth, Femi faces a bittersweet farewell with Lars, who departs for Barcelona. But just as one chapter closes, another begins. Ajax is selected for the prestigious European Football Federation U-23 Championship in Spain—a tournament featuring the top academies across Europe. Femi’s journey from the sidelines to the spotlight is one of growth, grit, and destiny—proof that even when pushed out of position, true greatness finds its way. Story is completely football based and will rarely deviate from that concept
