Love Island USA - Season 8: Xolani's Story When rising R&B singer, social media sensation, and NBA YoungBoy's little sister Xolani Sage Gaulden walks into the Love Island USA villa, everyone knows exactly who she is-and suddenly, she's the center of attention. Determined to prove she's more than a famous last name, Xolani is ready to put her career aside and finally find a genuine connection. Her unexpected spark with Sincere quickly turns into one of the villa's hottest romances. Their chemistry is undeniable, but paradise doesn't stay peaceful for long.

With shocking recouplings, messy love triangles, betrayals, and unforgettable villa feuds, Xolani and Sincere must decide whether their connection is strong enough to survive the pressure. Can they find real love in a place where everyone seems to want something from her-or will fame, jealousy, and drama tear them apart before the finale?

Abigail Andrews made a promise to herself. She would get over her fear of rejection. She would no longer hide in her brother's shadow for safety. She would step out and experience life for all it has to offer. She spent all summer planning it out, but she'll find out that life doesn't care about your plans. This is a spin-off/alternative outcome from my other Riverdale fan fiction, Take Me to The Races, which is about Malachai. In this story, Abby never works the nightshift at Pops, so she never meets Malachai. You don't need to read that one to understand this one.

Lieutenant Valeria "Val" Reyes has spent her career surviving the things most people never see. When she is pulled into the classified Lioness program, she expects another high-risk assignment. What she finds instead is a team that does not recruit-it selects-and a woman who watches her like she is already calculating the cost of keeping her alive. Cruz does not offer welcome. She offers assessment. Quiet, precise, and unreadable, she is the first person to see past Val's control and recognize the same relentless focus staring back at her. What begins as professional evaluation becomes something sharper: two operators learning each other's rhythms under pressure, in the ring, on the range, and in the silence between missions. As Val is formally brought into the program, the boundaries between duty and something far more dangerous begin to blur. In a world built on deception, disappearance, and the constant possibility of not coming home, the slow pull between them is the one risk neither of them was trained to manage. Because in Lioness, the mission always comes first.
But some connections refuse to stay operational.

The man in the corner-the guard assigned by our families to ensure the union is 'properly consummated' watches us with dispassionate eyes. It makes my skin crawl, but then Tim shifts his hips, and a sharp gasp tears from my throat, drowning out everything else. I bury my face in the crook of his neck to hide from the guard, inhaling the scent of sandalwood and expensive whiskey. My fingers dig into his shoulders as the rhythm builds. "Tell me something about you," he murmurs against my hair, his voice ragged but clear despite the exertion. "What?" I moan, confused and dizzy, pressing my lips to the damp skin of his neck in a desperate attempt to anchor myself. He slows his pace just enough to force me to focus, pulling back slightly so he can look me in the eye, even as his body remains connected to mine. "I want to get to know my wife."

She knew how the dragons died. She knew which king doomed them. So when Vaella Celtigar awakens years before the Dance, she has no intention of saving history-she intends to conquer it. Her plan is simple: ruin Hightower influence, ensure weak Viserys never touches the Iron Throne, and place the most dangerous Targaryen prince upon it instead. Daemon Targaryen will be king, Vaella will be his queen. And gods help anyone foolish enough to appear in her ledger as a liability.

An Alec Volturi Fanfiction Seven years ago, eighteen-year-old Emerson Carter died on an icy highway in Alaska, leaving behind her family, her first love, and a future that had only just begun. A mysterious vampire's split-second decision saved her life-but at the cost of her humanity. After spending her first years with the Denali coven, Emerson found a true home with the Cullen family, where she learned to embrace a new kind of forever. Gifted with the rare ability to temporarily wield another vampire's power through touch, she has spent years trying to understand a gift unlike any Carlisle has ever encountered. When Alice Cullen has a terrifying vision of Bella Swan leaping from the cliffs of La Push, Emerson returns to Forks at Alice's side, unknowingly setting into motion a chain of events that leads them to the ancient city of Volterra. There, beneath centuries-old stone walls and the watchful eyes of the Volturi, Emerson comes face-to-face with Alec-the silent, lethal guard whose very presence unsettles her in ways she cannot explain. The connection between them is immediate, undeniable, and impossible to ignore. While neither understands the force drawing them together, one vampire does. Marcus. With a single glance, the oldest of the Volturi recognizes the rarest bond immortality can offer-a true mate. As the Cullens fight to save Edward, Emerson is caught between two worlds: the family who gave her a second chance at life and the vampire whose soul seems irrevocably intertwined with her own. But a bond acknowledged by the Volturi is never simple, and with Aro's fascination fixed on Emerson's extraordinary gift, choosing love may come at the cost of everything she's fought to protect. In a world where loyalty is tested, fate is unforgiving, and eternity is never guaranteed, Emerson must decide whether the future she never wanted could become the one she was always meant to have.
