Rethabile Charlotte Majola has never had time for love. A blue-collar woman, tough as nails, she lives for her work as a firefighter - running into danger while everyone else runs out. Love? That's a distraction. And distractions get you burned. Enter Reotshepile Maya Dlamini - sharp, ambitious, and calm under pressure. A doctor who saves lives with steady hands and a razor-sharp mind. She wasn't looking for anything either... until one glance across a crowded room changed everything. What starts as a simple friendship quickly spirals into something heavier. The stares last too long. The tension is impossible to ignore. Both of them hide behind the same words - "just friends" - but every moment together feels like a dare, like playing with fire. Can two studs who swore they'd never fall for anyone risk the heat that's building between them? Or will pride, fear, and the world's judgment tear them apart before they even begin? #StudxStudLove 💎🔥 A slow-burn, tension-filled romance about desire, denial, and what happens when fire finally meets flame.

Or maybe it will ruin everything, ending in chaos and causing hell. • • • 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞... - Mature/Strong Language - Mature Content (18+ Recommended) - Sex/Smut (Detailed) - Substances (Alcohol, drugs, etc) - Violence (Including weapons) - Other Possible Triggering Content REACHED: ----- #𝟏 in 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐱𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝 #𝟏 in 𝐛𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐛𝐢𝐚𝐧 #𝟐𝟖 in 𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲

"I thought you hated me?" Genesis asked, looking into her eyes. Armani chuckles and looks away from her gaze. "I don't. I never did, I hate that I love you but I can't have you." Armani responds, looking back at her, staring into her eyes.

"No one knows what was done to me this summer. And no one will ever find out. They wouldn't understand... My own parents don't even understand... No one knows and no one saw.... or so I thought." Iyana Bright is a 17 year old, high school girl who goes through a horrifically violent experience during her summer break, but a spiked drink leaves her memory in a haze. Through the new school year as a senior, she deals with bouts of PTSD, anxiety, and depression as the memories of her ordeal haunt her every waking moment. Until the new girl, Juliana "Jules" Allen; who also happens to be her next door neighbor, enters her life. Jules, also a 17 year old senior, has demons of her own to fight. With no mother in the picture, a suspiciously angsty college brother, and an abusive father who can't keep his anger in check, she carries a little secret of her own that could either make or break Iyana's traumatic grief. What will these two find waiting at the end of their journey; one happy ending... or an ending for one?

Even when she heard the floor creak in the middle of the night, even when she swore she left a door closed only to find it wide open, even when her lighter went missing just to show up in the exact spot she looked ten times-she always found a way to rationalize it. This house was old. Drafty. Probably settling or whatever bullshit people say when they don't wanna admit something ain't right. But Mari wasn't the type to scare easy. She moved into this mansion on some lucky shit-her uncle left it to her when he passed, probably thinking she'd flip it or tear it down. But nah, she liked it. It had character. High ceilings, long halls, a balcony she could step out on and smoke, and a bathtub big enough to sink into after a long day. Yeah, weird shit happened sometimes, but that wasn't enough to make her leave. Not yet, at least.

"Where all that talk go now hm?" Aeris whispered against my lips, she had me pinned against the wall with her hand around my throat with the right amount of pressure. "M-movee" I said trying my best to sound serious but it came out in a whiny tone. She just smirked while staring in my eyes before pulling back and releasing me. "Fuck"
