"You're such a bad habit" 🤍enemies to lovers au🤍

When ambitious journalism student, Aurora Denver, starts a new job dancing at an unknown club hidden in the city, she thinks she's just trading her late night study sessions for quick cash and stage lights. But, the clubs emotionally unavailable, downright confusing owner, Harry Styles, is more than what meets the eye. A man with secrets buried in the shadows of the busy city. Drawn to his dangerous, charismatic charm, she finds herself torn between her dreams of education - the story that could launch her career - or fighting against her morals to protect a dangerous criminal. As the lines blur between love and betrayal, she finds the most dangerous stories happen to be the ones you become apart of. Deceit - where nothing is as it seems. Every truth masks a lie. Can you unravel the truth before anyone else? - "Are you gonna keep those lips shut for me, Princess? Or am I gonna have to make you?" He whispered tauntingly, leaning in closer to breathe cynically and I could practically hear amusement in his tone. I say nothing. Attempting to control my breathing and not break into deeper panic as my lips stayed sealed with his touch on them, slowly dragging the sensation down over my chin where he continued to smear the crimson blood. "C'mon, I know you're itching to talk back... or have I finally silenced you, hm?" He chuckled through his taunting. "Tell me Princess... are we gonna have a problem?" Slowly, I shook my head from side to side. It caused him to squeeze my chin, all of his fingertips now on me staining the imprint of his touch onto my face. He shifted his touch south, cupping the side of my neck and I squirmed against the wall at the feeling of his handprint on a sensitive area, his head moved away from my opposing ear to look down at me once again. "This is our little secret, yeah? I wouldn't want you to be the next one tied to that chair with your blood splattered on the floor." - Started: April 2024 Finished:

And I'm following him. We dodge through the trees, and every few seconds, I swear I hear another footstep behind us. Too close. Too fast. We're not alone out here. Not yet. "We're sitting ducks like this," Harry mutters. His grip tightens on my wrist like I'm some idiot who might wander off and get herself killed. I yank myself free. "Don't fucking touch me." He barely reacts. Infuriating. Instead, he slows just enough to turn his head and give me a look. That unreadable, smugly amused yet completely detached look that makes me want to hit him again. "Relax, sweetheart," he says smoothly. "I just saved your life." My blood boils. "You came here to kill me." He shrugs. "Did I? You're still breathing, dear." I want to scream. - Vienna Pierce was supposed to be a quick kill. Hidden away in witness protection, she was marked for death. Harry Styles, a hitman desperate for his freedom, was sent to eliminate her. No mess. No witnesses. Simple. When the truth about her past is revealed, Harry realizes he's been lied to-and that the real danger isn't Vienna, but the people hunting them both. Forced to go on the run together, they become fugitives in a game where trust is deadly their situation stems from something much darker than either of them. As tension ignites and enemies close in, Harry and Vienna must decide: will they survive each other, or will they become the very thing they swore to escape? FILL. THE.
