Urban one shots (Parental Advisory Explicit Content) 18+ Content

"Beautiful things don't ask for attention." In a world that thrives on conformity, August is an anomaly. Raised in a secretive overbearing family, she was chosen to leave its hidden grounds-not for freedom, but for duty. Sent to college to become the strategic mind for her generation behind the family's growing empire, she tries to move through the world like a ghost, draped in gothic shadows with secrets too heavy to share but her style is just too much to go unnoticed by judging eyes unscathed. Then she meets Kason through his older brother. A rising rapper with a reckless charm and a hunger for something real, dealing with battles of his own, he's instantly drawn to August's eerie demeanor and the quiet storm that lingers behind her dark mysterious eyes. She's nothing like the women he's used to-unbothered by trends, and untouched by the need for validation. The more she resists, the deeper he falls, his infatuation turning into an obsession he can't shake. One he cant let go of. As their worlds collide, the slow burn of their connection threatens to ignite everything August has been taught to suppress. With her past closing in and expectations pressing down, she must decide if she's willing to defy everything she's ever known for the chance at something dangerously real. In a society that demands she fit a mold, August stands in defiance. Unfortunately, love has a way of making even the strongest question their silence.

Ariel comes from a home where cruelty is normal-fat-shaming disguised as concern, neglect dressed as tough love. She's used to being invisible, both in class and in her family. The only place she feels peace is in books or when she sees him, the mysterious man who haunts her thoughts like a forbidden daydream. All she wants is to be chosen, just once, for who she really is. Lucien has never had something pure to protect. He's killed for pleasure, for power, for survival. But Ariel? She makes him feel again. He wants to shield her from every insult, every cruel word she's ever heard. And he'll burn the world down to keep her safe-even if it means becoming the monster she fears. To him, she is perfection in its most forbidden form. And once he's tasted her-emotionally or otherwise-he can never let go.

Two fierce souls collide - Jada, a smart-ass, no-nonsense woman grinding hard to get out of her tough neighborhood, and Trey, a ruthless street king who doesn't tolerate weakness or disrespect. When their worlds violently clash, the hate burns hot. But as they keep running into each other - sparring with insults and cold stares - the line between enemy and lover starts blurring. They hate what they see, but they can't stay away.
