Close Enough to Fall He's my older cousin's best friend-the one person I should never want. What starts as stolen glances and late-night conversations quickly turns into something neither of us can ignore. But with family, loyalty, and years of unspoken rules standing between us, falling for each other could cost us everything. Some lines aren't meant to be crossed... until love makes them impossible to see. *SHORT STORY*

Rihanna thought college was supposed to be simple- classes, friends, and maybe a little freedom. But then she soon saw him. Malik. Older, dangerous, impossible to ignore. The kind of man who doesn't ask for permission... he just takes what he wants. At first, it's just stolen glances and heart-flipping moments. But soon, Rihanna finds herself tangled in a world she's never known- a world of fast cars, late nights, loyalty, and temptation. And when love hits harder than she ever expected, she discovers that some choices come with consequences... ones she may not be ready for. Friendship. Passion. Secrets. Heartbreak. And a love that changes everything.

Ex lovers sometimes find their way back to each other, not out of habit, but because time has softened the edges that once pushed them apart. They return wiser, carrying lessons etched into their hearts, craving a familiar warmth they struggled to replace. What once caused pain now offers clarity, and together they discover that peace of mind isn't the absence of conflict, but the presence of a love they finally know how to hold.

Fuck a slow burn , read this.

Siri, play You Da One by Rihanna... Something about him feels like a warning- and a promise. A Chicago Love Story

"Don't look at me like that..." I scoffed, licking my lips to hide my smile as I looked up at her. She was tempting. Very tempting. And it wasn't intentional, but I could tell she was falling for it anyway. Obliviously, "Like what?" Her lips curled, showing me what I tried my best to hide. She let out a small laugh, looking away so my eyes could no longer meet hers. And then, "Like you're going to make me regret my decision." _ After a traumatic event that truly exposed her to the reality that she'd been constantly warned about, Areli meets Savannah, a kind woman who brings all the best things around. But, of course, it's always too good to be true. - BOOK ONE

Looking me up and down. Watching his eyes move from my face, slowly down my body. The way he was looking at me, did something to me. Them hazel eyes of his, didn't make anything easier. "I look good in everything. No matter what I was wearing. Even if I was in some sweat pants," I said. Focusing my attention back on the teacher. He scooted my chair closer to his, breathing in his cologne. That had me in a chokehold. Lord help me, I thought. He whispered in my ear. " I would love to see you in my clothes, laid up on my bed." Scooting close enough for him to feel my lips on his ear. "You would love to see me naked on your bed. Too bad, you never will." Lightly pressing a kiss on his cheek, moving my seat back to my spot. His shocked facial expressions was satisfying to say the least. "Bet." ------------------- Come along the journey between Rayne and Dante.
