Abuse. Whether it comes from a parent or a significant other is an issue that has brought many into being manipulated, ruined, or even shattered into a hundred different pieces. Alaiya Storm can check off all those things, even though she doesn't realize it. When one day Roman Blackwood; the quarterback of the college football team who has no desire to ever date and is used to just the one-time hookup with no strings attached thing, sees the way Alaiya is being treated, will he put his hatred aside that he feels for her after a not-so-great interaction? They both find each other irritating. With Roman's sarcastic comments and Alaiya's constant need to stay in this abusive relationship, an annoyance, but also an inability to resist each other grows in a way they didn't expect, nor wanted. ~~~~~~ "I hate you more and more everyday," I say as I turn my head towards her. "Keep going," she encourages me before her mouth begins to suck harder on the crook of my neck. I grip onto the back of the wood tighter while her hand goes to the inside of my hair and pushes my neck closer for her mouth's reach. The minute I feel her tongue begin to glide again, I lose all control instantly. "I don't give a fuck." I throw my stick to the ground and pull her by the back of her throat in under a second as our lips finally connect. ~~~~~~ 1k reads April 30, 2021 10k reads on May 7, 2021 100k reads on May 16, 2021 **** Top Ranks: #1 in College #1 in Football #1 in love story #1 in friends #1 in Series #2 in Happy Ending #3 in bwwm #3 in Humor #3 in Enemies to lovers #4 in Collegeromance

Marriage. Displayed to be the most perfect thing, but can have its faults at times. Roman and Alaiya seem to be learning more about that every day. They're learning to grow as people, not just together, but also by themselves. Yes, things get hard, but will Roman and Alaiya's love be strong enough to survive through those hardships? ***This is a sequel into Roman and Alaiya's relationship. I would not recommend reading this unless you have already read Worse for Better. ~~~~ "Thank you for the best birthday present." I give him a confused look. "But I didn't get you anything." Maybe he forgot that he put a rule against me buying him literally anything or else he would toss me to Canada. His words, not mine. "You buying me a private jet or some shit like that isn't the same thing as you giving me the chance to fall in love with you all over again every time we get moments like these." He makes direct eye contact when he says that, meaning he actually feels that way, meaning I'm about to start crying any second now.
