Sera grew up believing kindness was enough to survive the world. As the daughter of a baron, she lived modestly, loved deeply, and fell for the wrong boy. Leon-arrogant, wealthy, and cruel-was the boy she liked. And the boy who bullied her the most. What began as childish teasing slowly became something sharper, more humiliating. Tired of waiting for kindness that never came, Sera turned away from him and poured her heart into studying magic instead. She learned to grow strong alone. Only then did Leon feel it. The ache in his chest. The twist in his stomach. The fear of losing something he never thought mattered. But by the time Leon understands his own feelings, Sera has already changed-calm, distant, and standing beside Sebastian, the gentle crown prince who treats her with quiet respect. This is a slow-burning hate-to-love story where love comes too late, hearts are tested by pride and regret, and the line between cruelty and devotion blurs. Though it begins within the walls of an imperial academy, A Bitter Taste unfolds into a tale of war, magic, and destiny-ending on the battlefield and within the royal palace, where mages, swordsmen, and healers must choose who they truly are... and who they are willing to lose.

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. ••• Completed • First Draft - half edited. Watty2025 winner #1 in #Romance #1 in #Brotherbestfriend #2 in #bestfriendsbrother #2 in #icehockey

When Emmy's best friend, the King of the Dark Fae, pulls her into Court for her own safety, her life shatters into a world of danger, desire, and deception. And the fae who tempts her most is the one she can never trust. *~*~*~*~*~*~* Emmy has always known her best friend isn't human-he's the King of the Fae, ruling a realm where beauty is a weapon and loyalty comes at a cost. As rebellion rises and Damien's power begins to fracture, Emmy agrees to help him find a queen-someone who can legitimize his reign and calm the chaos threatening to consume his court. But in the glittering danger of the fae world, Emmy meets a mysterious man-a ruthless, magnetic fae whose allegiance belongs to no one. His interest in her is as sharp as it is dangerous, and every moment she spends near him draws her deeper into a web of conspiracy and deceit she can't escape. Caught between loyalty and temptation, light and ruin, Emmy must decide what she's willing to sacrifice. Because in a realm where crowns are won with blood and hearts are broken for sport, even love can be treason. ~*Author's Note*~ This is a slow-burn dark fantasy with sharp edges. Expect morally grey characters, power imbalances, quiet choices that hurt more than loud ones, and a romance that is intense, complicated, and not always safe. No one here is purely good, no one is entirely honest, and love does not guarantee mercy. If you're looking for a story about agency, survival, and what it costs to matter in a world that would rather use you-welcome. Read carefully.
