"You're sleeping alone in your bed, but check your window. He's at your window..."-Tyler the Creator/Frank Ocean

A'Lani Carter isn't looking for love not after everything she survived. She keeps to herself, does hair, and trusts nobody. Then she meets Jae'Lon Wright. He's the one everyone fears: dangerous, cold, and tied to the streets. But around her?He's different. She's guarded. He's broken. Neither of them wants a relationship but trauma pulls them together before they realize it. Just when A'Lani starts to let her guard down, Jae's world reaches for her hard. Old enemies, old secrets, and old scars threaten everything they're building. He'll protect her with his life. But loving him might cost her the peace she fought so hard for. Two broken hearts. One dangerous connection. Will they save each other or fall apart trying?

Deja A'riyah Brown is a woman who knows exactly who she is. In her late 30s, she's confident, loving, and comfortable in her own skin. A beautiful plus-size woman with a soft heart and a strong mind, she's spent years learning her worth. She doesn't chase attention, she doesn't entertain childish games, and she definitely isn't interested in raising a grown man. Her life is peaceful, steady, and built on self-respect. So the last thing she expects is to cross paths with someone like him. At only 22 years old, Elifér Josué Etienne, better known in the streets as "Choppo," is everything she stays away from. A Haitian street boy with money in his pockets, confidence in his walk, and trouble following close behind him. The streets know his name, women know his charm, and commitment is something he's never taken seriously. Funny, bold, and dangerously smooth, he's used to getting whatever-and whoever-he wants. But Deja isn't impressed. She's older, wiser, and far too grounded to be caught up in the lifestyle of a young man who lives fast and loves even faster. To her, Choppo is just another boy who hasn't figured life out yet. But something about Deja A'riyah Brown is different. For the first time, his jokes don't shake her. His money doesn't move her. And his charm? It barely scratches the surface. What started as two people from completely different worlds colliding slowly turns into something neither of them expected. Because sometimes the one person you swear you'd never fall for... becomes the one person who changes everything. And this time, the streets might not be strong enough to pull Choppo away.

I was never meant to feel warmth again. But somehow, she became the light I never thought I'd see. In the dark world of my life, she is the one who gives light to it. And the longer she stays, the harder it is to go back to the dark. This isn't a love story. It's a war between what I was... and what she makes me want to be.

I sinfully loved the position we were in. "touch me like you want to" He says hoarsely. Jesus! Is it me or is the weather getting hot. For a moment, I raise my had to touch him but then again, he rejected my touch not too long ago and it hurt so now it's his turn to feel it. I hear him groan as he presses further into me. What's up with him? His hand that held my hurt leg pushes further up my thigh. "touch me 𝑓𝑖𝑜𝑟𝑒, you know you want to" He says, his voice darker than usual. Yeah sure I want to but I'm not gonna if you say it like that. "touch me or I'll touch you and I guarantee that I'll do way more than just touching" --- Rose Smith Compared to her two sisters, Alyssa and Anais, Rose Smith, an American 18 year old highschool student, has always considered herself 'ugly', or so she thought until she crosses paths with the walking storm, Damián Valendez who's on a vacation in America. She thought the dangerously handsome and unimaginably sexy Italian devil to be just another client but little did she do know that she had been claimed by the most dangerous mafia boss in the whole of Italy. Damián Valendez With the amount of blood on his hands and cruelty in his demeanor, this 23 year old walking storm was destined to destroy anything he lays his hands on. That was until he came across a little precious rose and with the type of demanding man he is, he gets what he wants...and he wants her but is the feeling mutual? Will she fall for him or despise his existence? Will he fall for her or consider her a sex tool like the others? ...

✧ 𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐎𝐊𝐋𝐘𝐍 𝐋𝐎𝐌𝐁𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐈 (𝐀𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐍) ✧ When I was six I was kidnapped and taken away from my family for seven months. Thirteen years later and I have little to no memory of who had taken me. Ever since then my father has been severely overprotective and never lets me out of his sight. Now that I'm somewhat on my own everything starts to change. When I finish high school and start attending New York University my life takes a turn, for better and for worse. They're back. ☆ 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐗𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑 𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑 ☆ Years ago we found our little angel. She just so happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. She was the light in our lives, until one day we lost her again. Thirteen years later and we still mourn the loss of our sweetheart, but we found her once, we will do it again. I am the head of the Russian mafia, or a professor at NYU depending who you ask. One day I raise my head to look around at the sea of students and my eyes lock on a familiar pair of ocean blue irises. ★ 𝐇𝐀𝐘𝐃𝐄𝐍 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐄𝐋𝐋 ★ I'm a heartless killer and offer no apologies for it. As the head of the Russian mafia along with being the CEO to a multibillion dollar company, my life is nothing but darkness. During the day I'm an office man, at night my knife slashes through the necks of anyone I can get my hands on. Killing is my outlet, ever since I lost her. It helps me keep my anger in check. I've never stopped looking for her. We've come close multiple times, but each time came out unsuccessful. As I put a bullet in the head of my ex-guard, Alex comes rushing into the room, and the look on his face says it all. He found her. Start: July 4th End: ///

She's a girl who feels as though she's had the weight of the world on her shoulders. He's a guy who shows her what it means to feel safe, to not keep waiting for the other shoe to drop.

With her, Ryder finds something he never thought he deserved. But loving him means stepping into a world of secrets, obsession, and sins that refuse to stay buried. Some loves feel like prayer.
