"Lie on the bed, Isla Maria Carter. That's my fifth payment" Falling for her brother's rival? Of course not. She'd rather eat dirt. For Isla, it was supposed to be a simple university project: observe, analyze, and leave. But you can't observe a predator like Noah Blackwood without becoming the prey. He's the new captain of the Blackthorns. The golden boy. The trustees' son and the visionary future of the University. But to Isla Maria Carter... he's nothing more than a SON OF A BISCUIT. He's her brother's greatest rival. Her biggest headache. And now? Her mandatory partner. Noah doesn't like being a subject; he likes being the one in control. And he has decided the only subject he's interested in... is her. HE WANTS HER TO FALL FOR HIM. SHE WANTS HIM TO FALL IN A PIT. HE WANTS TO KISS HER. SHE WANTS TO PUNCH HIM. FOR HIM, SHE'S THE CHALLENGE HE NEVER SAW COMING. FOR HER, HE'S THE PROBLEM SHE CAN'T ESCAPE. HE WANTS HER. SHE WANTS HIM-MURDERED. This season's game has officially moved off the field. But the question remains the same, "Who is going to win this match?" •=======• Cover by @elaradaven Well yes there are many kiss scenes in between (for absolute no reason acc to me) because, come on! It's my book and I love these things lol. Okay I know you guys. So, here's the spice level:- 4/5 🌶️

"He wasn't her first love. But she was his first mercy. And his last mistake." Dr. Kritsada "Krid" Wongpanya was the quiet one. Polite. Brilliant. Unassuming.

But monsters don't grow in the dark. They learn to wear the light. When Valeska discovers Krid's terrifying truth, it doesn't end with screams... It ends with silence and an irreversible descent.

"Did... did you just touch me?" Juliet frowned. "Uh, yeah? What's wrong with you? Answer my question first!" He let out a sigh, rubbing his forehead. "I've never met someone as dense as you." Her patience was wearing thin. "What are you even talking about?!" Jungkook looked her straight in the eye. "Juliet," he said, his voice low and deliberate. "I AM THE GHOST."

FlameMatch #2 r-18 | erotic romance | taglish Elizabeth Crimson was 19 when she stopped believing in "normal." Broke, tired, and numb from Pre-med School. She wasn't looking for love - she was looking for a way out, and FlameMatch gave her exactly that. That's where she met Sebastian Castle. Twice her age. Rich. Untouchable. He didn't flirt. He negotiated. Rules. Silence. Money. Expectations. And Elizabeth liked that. A little too much. What started as secret messages turned into a private arrangement no one else could know about expensive gifts, quiet obedience, and a connection that felt more like a beautiful trap than a relationship. She knew it was wrong. She knew it wasn't love. But being wanted like property felt easier than being invisible. He didn't save her. He didn't fix her. He bought a piece of her... and never gave it back. And the worst part? She let him.

FlameMatch #3 r-18 | erotic romance | taglish Atty. Ruby Natchios had everything planned out. A promising career as an attorney, a perfect wedding, and a future she thought she controlled. But all that fell apart when she caught her fiancé cheating the day before the wedding. Angry and heartbroken, she threw herself into work, fighting cases by day and trying to numb the pain by night. On a random impulse, she signed up for FlameMatch and that's where she met Matthew Coulson. Matthew Coulson was the governor - rich, powerful, and a drug lord hiding behind a polished smile and clean suits. He ran the city's streets and its laws, playing both sides like a pro. Ruby was supposed to hate everything he stood for, corruption, danger, and lies. But instead, he pulled her into a messy, dangerous game filled with obsession, power, and control. She was the law. He was the lawless. And in their world, justice was blind but so was desire.
