Caden Holland. Honest to God - if trouble had a face, it'd be his. Always arguing. Always correcting. Like he's convinced he's the smartest lad in the room, even when he's talking pure shite. He's got those eyes - dark, quiet, watching everything but never giving anything back. You'd swear he's judging you for breathing wrong. And people talk, don't they? Junkie. Dealer. Bad news. All whispered, but loud enough so you know exactly who they're on about. So I've promised myself one thing: stay away. No smiles. No chats. No pity. Because lads like him drag storms behind them - and you don't even realise you're drowning until you're already under. He's dangerous. Not the loud, show-off kind. The quiet kind. The kind that makes you feel seen and threatened all at once. And I swear on my life - I'm not getting pulled into whatever darkness follows Caden Holland around. *** Mallory Lynch. The name alone sits wrong in my mouth, like something sour. Daughter of the man who put my da behind bars - that's what I was raised on. Fact, not feeling. She doesn't look like danger. That's the trick. She laughs too easily, tilts her head when she listens, pretends she doesn't see the way rooms shift when she walks in. There's a crack in her somewhere. You can hear it if you listen past the cool-girl act. A quiet panic. Secrets rattling around behind her ribs. My plan? Simple. Keep my head. Stay patient. People like her eventually show you who they really are. And when she does - when the truth cracks wide open - I'll be there to watch the Lynch name drop lower than ours ever did. Not out of anger. Out of balance. Because Mallory Lynch smiles like she has nothing to hide - and I know for a fact she's hiding everything.

He hates everybody, except for her. ──────────────────────────── Theo Nott and Estele Blackwood had spent years hating each other. Or at least pretending to. They had always been on opposite sides of everything. He was quiet, difficult and impossible to read. She was warm, friendly and far too easy to understand. Between family rivalry, constant arguments and far too much forced proximity, getting along had never really been an option. Until somewhere between growing up, late nights and Quidditch practice, things began to change. Because it's hard to hate someone when all you seem to do is want them.

𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚 (noun.) : an intense and irresistible desire for freedom. We all know that money doesn't buy happiness. But you know what does? 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦. Which just so happens to be one out of the two things Silvana Thorne doesn't have. That other thing she's missing? 𝐅𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲. Trapped in an abusive, strictly confined environment with her tyrant of a mother, Silvana has never known what it means to be free or what it means to have her own independence. Her mother is always there watching her every move, breathing down her neck. Naturally, Silvana has adapted to her mother's destructive behaviour. While her heart desires for freedom, she plays the part of the perfect daughter - like a puppet on a string. She obeys the rules, never questioning a thing. That is until, she loses the only person who kept her going - her best friend. No longer a support system intact, Silvana will do anything to escape the nightmare her life has become. With nothing to lose, Silvana sets off on a mission to eradicate her life until she discovers something completely unexpected. Something that proves that her very own existence was a lie.....
