Our dads were the NHL's original bad boys. Now it's our turn. We're Serkan and Ziven Woods-cousins, legacy players, and the league's next obsession. Add in Leander Hunt, son of NHL's original good boy-our childhood friend we call cousin-and you've got the most-watched rookie trio in the game. The spotlight's on us. The pressure is brutal. But we were born for this. Raised for the rink. Built to break records. What we weren't ready for? The girls. The chaos. Each other. This isn't your typical hockey romance. It's louder. Dirtier. More unhinged. Because this legacy we're carrying? It's not just about the game. It's about the chaos, the girls, and the wreckage we'll gladly burn for. Three names. Two legacies. Zero chill. Welcome to the Woods-Hunt Heirs era. [Can be read as a standalone, 18+ Mature Audience, SMUT warning, Mentions of drugs, parties, obsession, love triangle, babysitter, age gap, alcohol, kinks, etc.]

WATTY AWARDS SHORTLIST! Completed • First Draft - not edited. A Good Girl's Guide To Being Naughty • • • Ivy Collins is a normal 21 y/o woman. Except for the fact she's a virgin ... or at least she was until she had sex with her university rivals hockey captain. After a quick (devastatingly quick) night with the man and being called a lousy lay, Ivy made a promise to herself that she wouldn't do it again ... sex that is. Who needs sex when all it brought was insecurities and more, and it wasn't even that good to begin with. Enter Asher Hudson, Ice Hockey captain, her brothers best friend and her best friends brother - triple trifecta of why she shouldn't get involved with him. But when he overhears a conversation Ivy has with her best friend, he gives her an offer she can't refuse. Well, she can, and she should, but why would she want to? Three months, she helps him with his grades, and he'll help her with her sex life. Only one rule, don't fall in love. Easy, right? He'll teach her everything she wants to know, and show her that sex can be fun, you just have to know how to do it right. And Ivy should refuse, after all he's the Ice Hockey captain, her brother's best friend and her best friend's brother - but what's the fun in that. Ivy knows she should say no, but she won't. And she won't fall in love, she can't.

In Willow Creek, Ohio, the factory whistles are silent, the jobs long gone, and the trailer park is all that remains-a place where rust eats through cars in the driveways and neighbors survive on gossip, cigarettes, and borrowed time. Trevor Harlan grew up in that park, in a leaking single-wide with fists for lullabies and hunger for company. But Trevor wasn't built to stay. Every insult, every bruise, every whispered reminder that he was nothing-he carved into fuel. He swore he'd claw his way out, that one day the same town that sneered at him would bow its head when he passed. Willow Creek is a dark tale of ambition forged in violence and desperation. It's about a boy who refused to disappear, who learned early that survival meant taking more than what was offered-and who discovered that power, once grasped, can never be given back. Amid the smoke and ruin of a town past its prime, two women carve out a quieter rebellion. Indie, sharp-tongued and restless, knows the weight of Trevor's fists and the cost of his fire. Odette, rich girl exiled to small-town monotony, carries the ache of someone who has never quite belonged. What begins as friendship between them smolders into something more dangerous-something tender, fragile, and forbidden in a place that punishes difference. As Trevor claws for a way out of Willow Creek, Indie and Odette are caught between desire and survival, their lives tangled with his rise in ways neither of them could have predicted. ⚠️ Trigger Warnings for Willow Creek Domestic violence (physical abuse, beatings, i Child abuse and neglect.

An infamous French mansion. A garden tended with malice. A filthy empire-and a mute maid with mismatched beliefs and an attraction to rancid scents stood in front of them all. Maison de Néronville makes luxurious perfumes worth gems and cradles deeds that could render their sophisticated scents putrid. Notable for their lush gardens, spotless legacy through philanthropy, and acute noses, they are French Riviera's finest- and dirtiest. Marguerite I. Alméras (Mia) helps to wash their dirty laundry in private. A talented soul with a disability who left her village in southeastern France to find a place where she could bloom- ironically, she found gardens, ones whose flowers smelled like decayed flesh. Getting hired at the mansion's fragrant house was as effortless as slipping on her mismatched flats. Navigating her term under the glass domes? That's another case-especially with a blind patriarch, a depressed heir, a bloodthirsty daughter, and hah...the notorious twins all spilling their nastiest acts to her, because: Mia sees, Mia hears, Mia feels, and Mia knows. But one thing Mia can't do...is tell. ~ ✨Highest Rank ✨7th in perfume out of 2.19k stories on 8/8/25
