Soriya wasn't supposed to make it this far. At sixteen, she ran from Detroit with nothing but her little sister and a backpack, leaving behind a life that tried to break her. Now 23, she's built her own world in Louisiana-quiet, guarded, and untouchable. She doesn't dance for attention. She dances to survive... and to escape. Symir known as Teeski-is a rising rapper from Chicago, used to money, control, and getting whatever he wants without trying. But when he comes across Soriya, she's nothing like what he's used to. She doesn't chase. She doesn't fold. She doesn't even look his way. And that's exactly what pulls him in. What starts as curiosity turns into something deeper... something dangerous. Because Teeski doesn't just want her attention- He wants her.

"he's alive but barely holding on" someone stated "oh thank God...will he be okay?" another stated "sir what's todays date...can you feel this?....can you keep your eyes open for me?....try to follow the light for me sir" i heard so faintly "Blood pressure is dropping we gotta go now!! we are losing him" was the last i heard before i shut my eyes .... They were never meant to cross paths-one living a structured, carefully planned life, the other guided by impulse and reckless hope. One is dismissive, and determined to keep their distance, while the other, stubborn and undeniably drawn in, refuses to walk away. What starts as irritation turns into tension, the chase slowly becomes something neither of them can outrun-love.

At Texas Southern University, everyone knows Kyana Reed, Jordan Miles, and Amir Lawson. Kyana is the girl who does everything in student government and the community. Jordan, her longtime boyfriend, leads a major campus organization and always looks the part. Together, they are the couple everyone expects to last. But things are starting to fall apart. Jordan's priorities have changed, and Kyana realizes she has been carrying the relationship alone. Then Amir Lawson enters the picture. He is calm, grounded, and their professional connection turns into late-night conversations that make Kyana question what real love feels like. When Jordan's betrayal finally comes to light, Kyana must choose between keeping up the image everyone believes in or choosing her own peace, even if it hurts.
