-- "You think you're so tough hm?" He says, getting closer to me. Both of our eyes lustful, deep and glued to each other's. "I am" I certify the one standing in front of me, our proximity making me nervous, but I'm refusing to show any signs of it. "You're testing my patience, princess." He admits as his hands lay lazily on my neck, I smirk at his sentence. "You're either leaving this place with a black eye or a hickey" He announces. "You wouldn't dare to kiss me." I bark back, his smirk growing as mine fades away. "Try me, Rora."

In a game of psychological warfare and dark obsession, Aurora must decide: will she break under his control, or will she learn to rule the shadows he created? He's not just watching her. He's rewriting her reality. ____ "The Crown Prince |18+" is the first book in the Princes of Ardencrest Series

Completed • First Draft - not edited. || "You gonna sit there all night?" Luka glances at me, smirking. I glare back. "I was enjoying the last few seconds of peace before having to spend an evening pretending to like you." "That's funny," he says, unbuckling his seatbelt. "Why?" I snap. "Because I was thinking the same thing." || The rules? Easy enough. 1. Pretend to be the perfect couple. 2. Keep it professional. 3. And whatever you do, don't. catch. feelings. Simple, right?

They were best friends before they knew what love was. Now, Ivy Cooper might be about to lose everything-including him. Ivy Cooper has grown up in the spotlight. As the daughter of Columbia University legends and New York's golden couple, she's always lived with high expectations, an infamous last name, and a future people think they've already written for her. But Ivy has her own story to tell-and she's finally ready to tell it. Her first chapter? Columbia University, just like her parents. Her second? Falling for her best friend. Luca James-hockey prodigy, son of family friends, and the boy who's always been there-is everything Ivy swore she wouldn't fall for. Charming, loyal, infuriating, and completely off-limits. Their bond has always been unshakable, but the older they get, the harder it is to ignore the way he looks at her... and the way her heart races when he does. When Ivy's assigned to cover Columbia's hockey team for her journalism project, the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur. The pressure of family legacies, early NHL drafts, and old secrets threaten to tear them apart before they've even had a chance to figure out what this is. Because sometimes love plays dirty. And sometimes, the biggest risk is taking the shot you've been afraid to make all along. A friends-to-lovers sports romance filled with slow-burn tension, late-night confessions, and emotional depth, Offside Obsession is Ivy Cooper's bold, heartfelt debut about rewriting your story-and choosing love on your own terms.

"Be a good boy, Ares, and just follow my lead." His chest rose up rapidly, taking his hands into mine and placing them on my waist. Feeling him begin to grow hard and the pool of wetness between my legs ached my soul. I needed him now. A piece of his hair fell on his forehead, his thumbs moved in circular motion as I rocked my hips back and forth, holding onto his shoulders for support. I unbuttoned his shirt, revealing more of his toned chest; I was practically salivating at this sight. It was obvious that he was going to the gym, even just by looking at his arms you could tell. This man was pure perfection, and I was pure seduction. "W-we shouldn't be doing this," his voice was breathless and ragged. My back arched because of the growing sensation I was feeling; he dipped his head between my neck, placing light kisses. I fist his hair as my jaw drops; my panties are drenched. "We should, we had a deal." _____ Violet Gray was a sophomore in college and failing her classes. With her growing popularity due to her looks and partying every night, Violet had completely forgotten the true reason for being in school. She had two options: get kicked out of college or find a tutor. Violet didn't want either; she was embarrassed to be kicked out. Ares Meadows was the epitome of smart and talented; his grades were all straight A's. He didn't have time to party nor focus solely on his looks and popularity. Ares was a nerd with even more nerdy friends, but the way he looked distracted everyone from the fact that he was a nerd. But nobody wants an inexperienced man.
