"See, this is exactly why I wish we never met. You came into my life and you just keep shaking everything up!" She stressed, her stomach rumbling with rage. He only stared before his lips twitched into a smirk. "You don't even believe that dumb ass shit." --- She thought running would set her free, but freedom came with a price she wasn't sure she was ready to uphold. She ran from one trap straight into another. Dreams of dancing slip through her fingers when survival forces her into a world she would have to endure. She's dragged into the dark corners of Onyx city and life is nothing as she knew it. Then he appears. A boy who feels different, who makes her believe she might have more to live for than pain. Unfortunately, in the streets nothing is ever as it seems. Every bond comes with secrets, every touch with consequences.

Ve don't smile in pictures. Don't like mirrors either. With acne that feels louder than her voice some days, she learned early how to fade into the background and clown first so nobody could clown her. Then Gwap walked in - gold chain, slick Charger, hood energy heavy - and stared dead at her face like it was art. He don't talk much. Ain't friendly to nobody. But somehow, with her, he's soft. Now Ve's stuck between believing his words or the voice in her head that's been dragging her since middle school. 'Cause loving herself? That was never part of the plan. Not until him.

Taniya Parker is gifted, young, and beautiful, but she's also incredibly independent and can come off a little hardcore sometimes. She graduated high school at the age of fifteen and attended the HBCU, Hampton University the following year. Now, starting her residency at Berry-View Hospital, she meets her longtime academic Rival, Christian Young. Christian Young is the male version of her, except a more conceited and arrogant version. Just as she graduated high school at the age of fifteen so did he, It was uncanny really. They'd met in college when his school, Virginia State, visited a local Medical fair. The fair was an opportunity for all Pre-Med students to learn from actual doctors who worked in the field. That was when Taniya accidentally bumped into Christian after staring at her notes and walking at the same time. "Oh, I'm sorry." She said, clearly distracted. "You good, just watch your step next time princess." He gave her a smug smile, then she just rolled her eyes and walked away. Little did she know, that's where it would all begin.
