Keeping Our Promise Khrome Carter never had the luxury of being a kid. At seventeen, he's already a second father to his four younger siblings, raised by a single mother who works double shifts just to keep the lights on. Basketball was supposed to be his way out. Love was never part of the plan. Soulynn Bennett was raised to be perfect. Straight-A student. Church every Sunday. Home before dark. The oldest daughter in a strict household where reputation is everything and feelings are optional. She's always been the strong one - the quiet one. Until two pink lines change everything. Now love feels heavier. Friends feel distant. Parents feel like enemies. And childhood feels over. In a city that expects them to fail, Khrome and Soulynn must decide: Will they repeat the cycles that raised them... or break them? Because keeping a promise is easy. Growing up is not.

"Fighting to keep us together, hope it's worth a try." An hbcu love story

"I'll text you.." She said as they pulled away. "Yeah ight. You better." They walked inside the cafeteria together but went separate ways. Anija walked back up to where Kema and Kam were sitting with a goofy smile. "Look at her, happy as hell she got her nigga back.." Kam tapped Kema's knee so she could look up. Anija laughed as she sat back down next to them. "That's my boo forreal.." typical (not so typical) highschool love story 💖

She was always there... too bright, too loud, too in love. He never looked twice. Until he told his friends: "She's always there, I wish she'd disappear." So she simply did. Days later, she returned... unrecognizable. Cold. Confident. Distant. Not the girl who stared at him with heart shaped eyes. Now, she's his rival. His competition. The girl he can't stop noticing. It started with heartbreak. Became a slow-burn war. And it might just end in love. ----------- You got a notification.

She was broken, pregnant, and abandoned. He was grumpy, guarded, and done with love. But somehow, they became each other's safe place. When Amiyah Le'Rae Vynter's abusive ex finds out she's pregnant, he does the cruelest thing he can-kicks her out, leaving her homeless and heartbroken with nowhere to go. Carrying a child she didn't ask for but already loves, Amiyah vows to do everything on her own...until a caramel-skinned, tattooed stranger with a permanent scowl changes everything. Cassian Rhyse Holloway doesn't do relationships, and he definitely doesn't do drama. But when he sees a shivering, pregnant woman at a bus stop in the middle of the night, something inside him snaps. He takes her in, promising himself it's only temporary. Yet, the more he's around her-the late-night conversations, her soft laughter, the way his big hands fit over her growing belly-the harder it is to keep his distance. He's grumpy, overprotective, and quick to threaten anyone who even looks at her wrong. She's sweet, vulnerable, but stronger than she gives herself credit for. Together, they're messy, complicated, and falling for each other in ways neither expected. But when Amiyah's toxic ex tries to crawl back into her life, Cassian has to prove that he's not just her shelter-he's the man who's ready to love her and the baby she's carrying, no matter what.

After losing her grandmother and her home, Mara takes a job as a housemaid for a wealthy couple. The mistress treats her cruelly, but the master is kind-too kind. As Mara and Alexander's forbidden connection grows, dark secrets begin to surface. Will she break free or remain trapped in velvet chains? ------------------------------------------------------------------ He settled between my thighs, kissing a line down my stomach, tongue flicking, teasing. He paused, looking up at me with a wicked grin. "God, you're perfect," he said. "And you're gonna let me ruin you, aren't you?" I moaned, already halfway undone. Then his mouth was on me-hot, greedy, devastating. His tongue parted me with sinful precision, slow and thorough like he had all the time in the goddamn world. Each flick, each swirl was calculated, torturously perfect, like he'd studied exactly how to undo me. He groaned into me, the vibration sending shockwaves through my core. One strong hand gripped my thigh, fingers digging in possessively as I writhed beneath him, helpless against the onslaught. "Fuck, Mara," he murmured against me, his voice low and reverent, like prayer wrapped in filth. "You taste like heaven and sin. So fucking sweet. So wet for me." I whimpered, hips lifting involuntarily, chasing his mouth. "That's it, baby," he growled, licking a slow, deliberate stripe up my slit. "Grind on my face. Show me how bad you want it."
