"I don't give a fuck if you can't change rooms. I want you out of here 𝘯𝘰𝘸." He points to the door expecting me to go, but I don't, and he grows angrier. "Make me." I say the line that gets every guy fired up. I expect something like "I'm gonna take your phone and chuck it out the window if you don't get out." But the next thing that happens gets 𝘮𝘦 fired up. He walks over to me and slams me against the wall. His left hand is on the right side of my head and I let out a gasp but his right hand is gripping my throat. He's so close to me I can smell his cologne. His lips are inches away from mine. One more closer lean and we'll be kissing. His lips look so soft. Shut up. His dark grey eyes bore into my soul, and I swear I saw a hint of softness in them. I tilt my head and before I can say anything, his grip on my throat gets tighter. I squirm in his hold, but his grip doesn't get any loose. "Your pretty little mouth needs to know it's boundaries, hm?" As he speaks, his fresh minty breath fans out on my face. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒂 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒓.

This is a journey of two meta-humans: Seraphine Grove who attends the Hero Prep School and Kal Knox who attends the Villain Academy. They both have the ability to channel electricity to create lightning, which is known as Electrokinesis. Kal's commitment to his father leads him to Sera on a co-op mission, while Sera's past leads her to Kal. This story is paradoxical, but it also breaks boundaries of cliches discussed in many other love stories. I may use the term "Hero" and "Villain" , but I hope you recognize that these titles are subjective to whose story you are reading. The only difference between them is the beholder's perception. There's light. There's dark. There's light in dark and vice versa. Nothing is truly black and white. Hell, nothing is just subjective to colors. Through this collection of excerpts, I play with the idea of biases, constantly changing the focal point. Shedding light, or illuminating shadows. Maybe the Hero makes the wrongs choices for the right reason, or maybe the Villain grasps on to the frayed edges of his morality too tightly. Although I focus on these characters falling in love, I also draw light to both of them falling in love with being alive. I hope you too, fall in love with being alive. There's no better way to live then through the thousands of characters embedded in the pages of a great novel. I wish for you to see your flaws (and strengths) in them. I guess I've succeeded if you think that you would have loved her, or fallen for him.
