The labeled nobody of the school is everything to someone and just doesn't know it. When Selena Cruz gets pulled into tutoring the Basketball star, Armani Saint, they start off on the wrong foot, which leads to a pinky promise that would change their lives. But is it for the better or the worse? Edited*

A dangerous, obsessive stud with a dark past becomes infatuated with a soft, feminine woman trying to escape her toxic ex. What starts as protection turns into possession. The stud doesn't share. The femme doesn't know how to stop craving the chaos.

Diamant Harris, known by her stage name "Iridessa", is on her way to becoming the new hottest thing in female rap. She has the perfect look, she has the perfect flow, she has the perfect life, and the perfect man. Everything is perfect.... until one day it's not. Her relationship ends in one of the worst possible ways, leaving Diamant broken, hurt, and bitter. She swears she'll never love again, that is until she meets Aurora. And this new feeling, this weird attraction she feels for another woman, scares her- but she wants to see just where it might all go. **Mature Content** More mature chapters are marked with a (*) before the chapter name. ********** This is a work of fiction.

Zora Monet Laguerre. She's like a walking Barbie doll. Her hair and nails are always done. Her outfits are always in season with the perfect designer shoes and bag to match. She's perfect. Everything about her from head to toe is just, well- perfect. And working in the beauty industry, she doesn't have much room to be anything but, so perfect is what she forever strives to be. Rebecca "Ritchie" Diaz. She's the complete opposite of Zora. She thinks perfect is absolutely boring. And as a music producer/song writer, boring goes against everything she stands for. So naturally, she's not a huge fan of Zora's very posh, and at times a bit snobby, attitude. And Zora feels as though Ritchie is too care free and has no sort of structure to her seemingly very chaotic and always on the go lifestyle. And in the beginning they clash- a lot. But as cliché as it sounds, sometimes opposites do in fact attract, and sometimes... they don't. Started: January 9, 2022 Completed: July 7, 2022
