Bonnie is emotionally and magically exhausted from constantly sacrificing herself and her power for her friends. So when she saw her cousin, Ashanti coming out of an SUV, Bonnie felt so much relief. Ashanti Bennett is the older cousin of Bonnie Bennett, she is 21 years old, she's powerful even more than Bonnie. She dictates her own rules, she don't let people belittle her. And she is here for her younger cousin. No more bullshit! "Bonnie, you are not their servant. Slavery ended ages ago girl." Considered Mature for languages and some steamy scenes. Elena Bashing, short-term Caroline Bashing. Love interest: Damon.

˚.🎀༘⋆┊❛ 𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐘 ❜┊𐙚⋆°｡⋆♡ ╰┈➤ ❝ (n.) The act of loving the one who loves you; a love returned full. ❝If equal affection cannot be, let the more loving one be me.❞- W. H. Auden Ysadora Verrin has always been known for her kind heart and unrelenting determination when it comes to helping others. But that doesn't mean she won't handle business when pushed. As the owner of a well-loved salon in Detroit, she keeps her life simple, work hard, stay humble, and take care of her own. After returning from a month-long visit with family, she expected life to resume as usual with her three childhood best friends. What she didn't expect was to come home to chaos: Beth, Annie, and Ruby had robbed a store. And not just any store-one tied to a man who does not appreciate being stolen from. Ysadora has always been willing to protect the people she loves, no matter the cost. But as tensions grow and lines blur, she finds herself balancing friendship, loyalty, and a connection she never saw coming. Detroit has never been a gentle city, and soon she learns that some secrets stay safer in the shadows and some men are far harder to walk away from than others. 𝚁𝚒𝚘 𝚡 𝙵𝚎𝚖 𝙾𝚌
