Fics like Checkmate, I couldn't lose

Regulus Arcturus Black, the most aspiring chess player of his generation and descendent of the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black, finds himself up against James Potter, notoriously brilliant, unnervingly smug, and unfortunately, extremely attractive. What starts out as a rivalry soon turns into more as the line between friendship and love starts to blur, and soon, Regulus risks more than losing just the game. With his abusive family breathing down his neck, his brother Sirius gone, and only chess to escape into, Regulus is haunted by his ambition, loneliness, and addiction, and James Potter might just be the only one who can stop his downfall.
