A Dominating Father-figure Boyfriend and His Delicate Lily-like Heroine. ❝He came to her house, bleeding and uninvited. She gave him coffee-and lost her freedom.❞ In a secluded villa district on the edge of City A, nineteen-year-old music student Liliane lives a quiet, disciplined life. That is, until a man in a bloodstained suit breaks in, locks the door behind him, and calmly says: "Make me coffee." He's not a thief. He's not a beggar. He's Sebastian-cold, powerful, and feared throughout the underground as Mr. Boss. And tonight, he's hiding in her house. A failed assassination. A betrayal from within. A three-year plan hanging by a thread. To survive, Sebastian must vanish from the grid-and Liliane's unlocked door offers the perfect cover. But what begins as a tactical retreat soon spirals into something else. The girl is too quiet. Too obedient. Too easily frightened. And far too beautiful for her own good. As Sebastian tightens his grip on her life-class schedule, phone calls, even the lock on her bedroom door-Liliane begins to realize: This man didn't just break into her home. He's rewriting the rules of her entire existence. She was supposed to be a temporary pawn. But he's already made her his personal territory. A dark, slow-burn romance of obsession, control, and the thin line between protection and possession.

That would be Judeikas for you, a man that attends the Psychological Summer School yearly along with many other students between which Vivien also found himself. Vivien is a guy with a passion for mental disorders so, naturally, he was being more and more intrigued by Judeikas. So what happens when Judeikas turns the tables?

Where Max somehow gets roped into one of his sister's stupid schemes and ends up in way over his head, completely out of his comfort zone, and quite sure he's just met his dream man. A man who happens to think Max is a girl. *** "An excellent recommendation. You're not just a pretty face, then?" "You think this face is pretty?" Max tried to say it with more sass, but it came out kind of soft. His face went red and he turned sharply to the books next to him. Casual. "You're very pretty," There was a gentleness to the teasing and Max glared at him. The man laughed again, dropping his eyes from Max. "Thanks." Max said after a pause and the man beamed at him. "I should be thanking you. This might be worth the read," he waved the book in his hand. Max rolled his eyes, face softening back into a smile. "I'm Kevin, by the way." "Cool," Max said and wondered if 'Kevin' was a name that fit this attractive man. "And what's your name?" Kevin prompted after a short pause and Max cleared his throat, embarrassed. "Oh, sorry. I'm Ma-," Max barely cut himself off in time. Face flushing darker, mood dropping like a fucking brick. He wasn't Max right now. "I'm Eva." ***This is a rough draft. Currently being rewritten!!*** (Disclaimer: there will be boy on boy romance and if that doesn't float your boat, gonna need you to float on by. Also a lot of swearing. Thanx ;3 )

"You. Have. A. Crush?" one of my best friends looked at me like I was some kind of an alien from outer space. The shock on her face made me regret telling this to her. I then gave her a sheepish smile but honestly, I despised that look on her face or on anybody's face. Hey! I'm a person too. Am I not allowed to have a crush?! "Oh shut up and let her finish!" I silently thanked my other best friend seated next to me. "What?! I thought she didn't have a heart and now look!" Willow replied blatantly. I gave her a look. "Soooo, what's his name?" She leaned forward. I could feel my cheeks heating up as I played with my fingers. "Okay come closer. I'm only going to whisper his name once." With that, the four of us leaned in together and once we did, I whispered his name as softly as possible. Once we pulled back, there was only silence in our group. I quickly looked down to avoid all the stares. Seconds later, Noah was the first to speak. "Alright. I mean I don't know him so I can't judge. He seems decent," he shrugged and smiled at me. "Noah's right. He's cute and he's got manners." Cora added. I sighed and then we all turned to Willow. She was too quiet. Ooops spoke to soon. "WHY HIM?! Of all people?!"
