❝I want you on your knees. Not out of love, or respect, or even fear... but because you understand your place will always be beneath me.❞ Leander Graves could be known for being one of the most popular gamers at merely twenty years old, or for being the mysterious guy no one really befriends. But no, Leander's name is always followed by the same word. 𝙑𝙞𝙧𝙜𝙞𝙣. Sheltered. Protected. Shy. Awkward. Completely insecure. Untouched fits too. Then one day Carmen Ivory walks in, clad in money and whispers, power and control. When she's told Leander is out of anybody's reach, a true challenge even for the best conquerors, he stops looking bland and starts appearing... fascinating. Thirty thousand dollars. Until winter break. For the money. For the dare. For her pride. But what begins as a simple bet soon becomes obsession: a web of manipulation, seduction, and cruelty spun by a girl who has never loved anyone in her life. Because Carmen doesn't fall in love. Psychopaths don't. They collect playthings. And Leander is destined to be her favorite. ♰ Bet trope ♰ Bad girl × Good boy ♰ Double POV ♰ Reverse dark romance ♰ Elite college

Raven is just a normal teenage girl. Okay, maybe not so normal. Let's say she's your average 18-year-old... with a slight obsession with her classmate Carter. And by slight, we mean staring at his pictures for over an hour a day - without ever having the courage to comment on them, let alone actually talk to him. When it finally seems like she might have a real chance with him - a shot at an actual relationship - there's only one tiny problem: her total lack of experience with guys. She's 18 and has never had a boyfriend. Don't even mention kissing. That's when the school's bad boy makes her an offer she never saw coming: sex lessons. Can she keep her heart from falling for him in the process? This isn't your typical bad boy cliché. And yes - we actually like Carter, lol. Prepare yourself for drama, chaos, emotional rollercoasters, and plenty of moments that will make you laugh, cry, and scream. ⚠️ Warning: This story contains swearing, explicit content, and may not be suitable for everyone.

Fernanda Blanc sat in the library, the scent of old books filling the air as she focused on the moutain of notes spread out before her. The quiet hum of diligent students faded when she heard his voice--smooth and teasing. "Still trying to catch up, sweetheart?" Fernanda didn't need to look up to know it was Nicholas Kane. His presence was almost magnetic, but she refused to give him the satisfaction of acknowledging it. Still, curiosity got the best of her. she glanced up, and there he was--leaning casually behind those glasses, a cocky smirk tugging at his lips.
