In which a teenaged girl meets one of her bestfriends cousin and everything goes from there. This story contains, language, abuse, and slight smut 💋💋.

Mia thought love was supposed to feel safe. Instead, hers-intense, consuming, and leaving scars she tries to hide. For almost a year, she's been trapped with Notti: the fights, the shouting, the bruises that fade too slowly... followed by the apologies, the gifts, the soft touches that make her believe he might change. Her friends tell her to leave. Her heart tells her to stay. And every time she looks into his eyes, she swears she still sees the boy she fell for-buried somewhere beneath the anger. But how many times can someone break you before you can't be fixed?

They all said Notti couldn't be stopped-too wild, too reckless, too addicted. The type to play it cool until someone crosses a line. You never meant to be on his radar, but one late-night run to the corner store changes everything. Piece by piece, you get pulled into his world-the late-night hangouts, the sharp stares that follow you through the block, the way he always shows up when you least expect it. Everyone warns you: being close to Notti comes with a target on your back. But what they don't know is that you're the only thing that makes him put the blunt down. The only voice that pulls him back when he's on the edge. And the more you try to save him, the more he craves you like every other drug he swore he couldn't quit. Soon, it's not just love-it's obsession. Because while Notti might be "nonchalant" about everything else, when it comes to you, he's one wrong word away from crashing out. And when his high fades, you're the only fix he's searching for.

Serenity lives a quiet life in the Bronx, staying far away from gang ties and street drama. But when her best friend Zaniyah decides to play matchmaker, Serenity is pushed into the orbit of Glo-Adot's twin brother and a well-known Makk Balla member with secrets of his own. What starts as an unexpected setup turns into a slow-burning connection neither of them saw coming. Told in chapters, this story explores loyalty, first impressions, and the thin line between staying safe and falling for someone you never planned to.
