Kymir was the kind of man people trusted too easily and they lived to regret it. But to Azaelia he was something far more dangerous. From the moment he "accidentally" crossed her path, everything about their connection felt too perfect. Azaelia didn't know she was being studied. She didn't know every laugh was another opportunity handed to him. Because Kymir didn't choose her by chance. Kymir was patient. But patience came with a cost. Somewhere between the lies and late nights, between pretending to care and actually listening, something shifted. The mission became heavier. Because Azaelia wasn't just a target anymore..she became his. When the truth comes out. Azaelia wouldn't just lose trust in him. She would realize she was never loved... only used. Or at least, that's what Kymir told himself....

Arlo lives under constant pressure, doing his best to hold things together while caring for his 16-year-old sister Moniece and navigating a home shaped by their mother's addiction. When a crisis at home disrupts what little stability he has, Arlo is forced to take on even more responsibility than he ever expected. Cartier's life is shaped by risky choices and misplaced trust, until one night changes everything. Arlo, working a late shift at a gas station, steps in at a critical moment and gets him the help he needs. That single act connects their lives in unexpected ways, setting the stage for a bond that grows deeper as both men struggle with loyalty, survival, and the possibility of something more.

Besties to lovers "I know it's scary but let's figure this out.. for us"

"I'll always love you for making me better"

I'm catching feelings? for a nigga?? Ain't no way man. Somebody help me.

" I don't even like you like that." Her face scrunched up in disgust watching water drip from curls in his hair. " 'Cause you love me. Just like I love you." He retorted with a grin, disregarding the deflecting she was doing. --- They were two sides of the same city-until one move split them down the middle. Elijah and London were inseparable once, bonded by childhood summers, beat-up bikes, and secrets too deep for anyone else to know. Unfortunately, when Elijah's mom packed up and moved her family across Onyx to a rival neighborhood, everything changed. She always thought when she spoke to him again he would've changed like her. She was witty, sarcastic, and had a low tolerance, but he was still the same calm , sweet, cute boy with a heart the size of the sun. Some things haven't changed. Some things never change. The pull between them, the memories that still burn etched marks in their brain, and the words they never said out loud. In a world where loyalty can be life or death, and love isn't always enough to cross old lines, Elijah and London find themselves circling each other again. --- STARTED; MAY 26th, 2025 PUBLISHED JUNE 6th, 2025 FINISHED; SEPTEMBER 27th 2025
