Book two of Confessions! It's been five years since everything has happened... Cover by: @zariyahjnovelty

Kionna King, a girl who had been ten toes down for her girlfriend, Daire since way back. Daire was the type to hold her down through anything - real loyal, real solid, the kind of love that feels safe. But when Meraj pops up, Kionna start feeling things she wasn't trying to admit. Meraj was different. Raw, passionate, and unpredictable. Now Kionna was stuck in this back-and-forth, talking to both, feeling like she's playing with fire. Kionna swears she isn't trying to hurt anybody, but her heart is confused as hell. Daire peeped the change, and Meraj isn't dumb either. They both want her, but neither one is willing to share... or so she thought. As things get deeper and the lies start stacking up, Kionna must face what she really wants. Will Daire walk away after everything? Will Meraj leave once he sees Kionna isn't ready to choose? Or will the three of them rewrite what love looks like-no rules, just real?

Sier. Fiery. Known as the "angry black woman". Feisty. Just wants someone to see past that. Kyan. A man a few words. A yearner. He sees her. He wants. He needs.

"Tell me you don't feel it. Tell me I'm imagining this, and I'll never bring it up again." He looked at her for a long moment, and she could see him fighting himself. "I can't tell you that," he said finally. "Why not?" "Because it would be a lie." -- Naomi "Nay" Shields is a 24-year-old lifestyle YouTuber with over a million followers, known for her beauty, travel vlogs, and "perfect" relationship with longtime boyfriend Messiah "Si" Banks. On camera, they're couple goals. Off camera, she's just surviving him. Messiah is a flashy, manipulative drug dealer in Atlanta-respected in the streets, but emotionally abusive behind closed doors. After cheating multiple times, he traps Nay further with a viral public proposal in Tulum. Now, she feels stuck-scared to leave the brand they built and scared of him. But everything shifts when Messiah's older half-brother, Zyair "Zy" Banks, returns home from a four-year federal bid. He's the opposite of Messiah-quiet, gritty, observant. And he sees right through Nay's pain. When Messiah gets shot in a setup and ends up bedridden, Zy moves in to "keep things in order." As tension brews and the house grows quiet, stolen glances turn into whispers... into touches... into something neither of them planned. What happens when love grows in the shadow of abuse? When the one man who sees you is the one you should never want? And what happens when Messiah finds out? 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝- 06.28.25 𝐏𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝- 07.09.25 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝- 08.20.25

The duality of survival and softness , where light seeps through of midnight lives .
