She didn't trust him, no she couldn't. The nerves in her body begged to move and run, as if her life slips every second in the front of him - eye to eye, brown to blue.
Evelyn Moore is the grey rock of society. And yet, she seems okay with it. She likes being unseen, felt comfortable in it. She goes in her own leisure and honestly, she wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.
It is until she realized her disadvantage of being nobody. She sees everything, oblivious to everyone else and occasionally she'll stumble into terrifying details. The tiniest bruises forming on the one girl's body, the smell of blood that radiates when that guy with a Mohawk walks by. The sad man and his empty eyes, a cool steel gun hidden between the palm of his hand and the sleeve of his jacket.
And the eyes of deep, dark blue who's staring right at her. A small smile rising from his lips, looking through her.
And no matter what, when he appears something bad always happens as if he's an omen himself.
She'll do her best to run but when he who seems like Death chases you, how long can you outrun death?

Tied to You
Some cages don't have locks. Evelyn's childhood home has never felt empty-not after the accident, not after she lost her parents, and not after Jace moved in. He's always been there. Through every scraped knee, every heartbreak, every moment that shaped her into the person she is. So she doesn't question the way he watches over her. The way he always knows where she's been. The way the house feels smaller than it used to. Jace is struggling. Just like she is. And she won't abandon him now. But when Knox enters her world, something shifts. For the first time, she feels like she can breathe. Like the walls around her aren't closing in. And that's when she starts to notice them-the cracks in the life she thought she understood. The silence that lingers too long. The way Jace watches when he thinks she isn't looking. The feeling of being trapped in a house that was never supposed to be a cage. Something is wrong. It always has been. And by the time she realizes the difference between love and captivity-it might be too late to run.
Gilded Chains
Beneath the glitter and the mirage that cloaks every inch of New York's high society, there is an underworld that thrives-relentless, bloodstained, ruled by men like Zayn Mercier. Cold. Calculated. Inviolable. Heir to the most feared crime syndicate in the city, he doesn't ask-he takes. And now, his sights are turned to Evelyn St. James. A woman he never should have wanted. Evelyn's life has been about curating beauty, not chaos. A highly respected art curator, her life has been a world away from the sins of her father-until a debt buried for years comes back to chain her to the devil himself. Zayn didn't need a willing participant; he needed her in obligation. Yet what starts out as a forced arrangement turns into something fraught with so much more danger. for both of them. She's fire and fury, a challenge wrapped in silk. He's temptation cloaked in sin, a man who owns every room he walks into. But neither of them is prepared for the pull between them, the sharp edge of obsession disguised as control. He wants her obedience. She wants her freedom. But in his world, nothing comes without a price. And in the shadows, someone is watching. Adrian Cortez, Zayn's right-hand man, knows there's more to Evelyn's past than she lets on. As secrets unravel and alliances fracture, he's forced to question where his true loyalty lies. Juliet Castello, a ghost from Zayn's past, holds the key to a betrayal that could destroy him. With enemies closing in and war brewing, Evelyn must decide whether to risk everything for the man who holds her chains or if she will be the one to shatter him first. He owns her body. She might own his soul. But in this game of power, love is the deadliest weapon of all.

Our Silent Promise
Evelyn has always had a plan. Ace her studies, get into her dream university, and build the future she's worked tirelessly for. She's bright, ambitious, and full of life, the kind of girl who believes in hard work, big dreams, and the certainty that the future is hers to create. But as the school year continues, she finds herself waiting-not for an acceptance letter, but for a test result. One that could change everything. Even though she smiles and insists she's fine, deep down, she's terrified. So she buries herself in school, in routines, in dreams she refuses to let go of. Because until the results come, she's still Evelyn... the girl with a bright future. Then there's Caleb. He carries an air of mystery, drawing eyes without effort, his presence a quiet enigma that pulls others in, though he remains an untouchable shadow, always just beyond reach. But behind the easy smiles and nonchalant attitude, there's something else... something heavier. His family is hiding a secret, one that no one else knows. When Evelyn and Caleb meet, it's unexpected. She's all focus and determination, he's a mystery wrapped in effortless charm. But in each other, they find something they didn't know they needed-a quiet understanding, a safe place to be honest, to be afraid. Between the late night rooftop talks, and stolen moments between classes, they make a promise... to hold on, to keep a secret for each other, and to steal whatever happiness they can before time runs out. But time has never been theirs to keep.

Possessive Rich Bully
[WARNING - EXPLICIT CONTENT] I pulled my elbow from his death grip. "You're ashamed of me. Admit it. You hate the idea of been seen with me." I shot venomous accusations his way. He didn't look at me. I'd rejected his kiss, pushed him away from and in return he'd turned cold and cruel, again. He'd shown nothing but hatred for me in public yet held me with aching tenderness when it was just us. I was sick of his games. He needed to decide whether he wanted me or not. "You parade new girls daily in front of my eyes," a sob escaped my throat. "And don't even deny you don't occasionally screw Charlotte behind my back." His ice blue eyes pierced my soul with his sharp gaze. He was teetering on the verge of lashing out on me. "How would you feel if I did the same to you, huh?" I pushed at his stiff chest. "Had several boyfriends, invited them to our home." His eyes cut to me, and a look darker than I've ever seen clouded his features I gestured to our grandiose home bought by his dizzying wealth. "And parade them right in front--" Before I knew it, I was face down and nearly suffocated by the soft material of our couch, I barely noticed my skirt pushed upwards and panties shoved aside. "You're my goddamn wife, Astoria. I will not tolerate your defiance." The sound of his belt loosening, zipper lowering, he entered me violently taking my breath with him. "Yet everyone thinks I'm still your charity case because you won't claim me." "You want to be claimed? Fine. But I am warning you, this lifestyle you're so accustomed to will be gone. I will be dirt poor and your family will be fired." "Then divorce and set me free. I am done being your dirty secret." Axel Trent, the spoiled prince always got whatever he wished for, and I was one of the thing he had wished to possess. Our fate were meant to collide in the cruelest way possible. It left me shattered. THIS IS A TOXIC ROMANCE BOOK. DON'T EXPECT HEART AND FLOWERS cover by IvvyKyComplete
Lost in Answer
She didn't believe in fate. But somehow, her words reached the wrong person-or maybe, the right one. Evelyn never thought an AI-generated reply could make her feel seen. Never realized that her late-night oversharing wasn't disappearing into the void like she thought. Someone was reading. Noah wasn't supposed to notice her. Yet, he did. More than she realized. More than he was willing to admit. It started with words. Thoughts she typed without thinking. Pain she believed was hers alone. But on the other side of the screen, someone understood. And somehow, that changed everything. And then, as if the universe wasn't done playing with them... She kept running into the same stranger. But maybe... just maybe... Noah was never a coincidence.

My Teddy
The corner of his mouth tilts upward slightly. I smile again. A smile!? A tiny one, but still. "Hm. So I got you to smile, that's progress, yeah? Can I get your name now?" I ask, swinging my feel a little. He shakes his head shyly, his mouth not moving at all. Geez! Why do I want to hear this dude talk so much? "Okay, that's fine. I can give you a nickname." I offer happily. He looks up from his book, raising his eyebrows. I just stare for a moment. He has nice eyes. Pretty brown chocolate orbs. They remind me so much of....... "Teddy." He shakes his head immediately, frowning. "What, why not? You remind me of my old teddy bear. He was a good listener and he didn't talk much..... just like you." I say softly, tilting my head. He continues to shake his head. I fold my arms, leaning back in my seat. "Yeah, it's definitely sticking. Teddy.....It has a nice ring to it, yeah?" He sighs, the first sound I have ever heard him make. "No." . . . *Jordan* Teddy!? Seriously!? She gave me a fucking NICKNAME!? What the hell does this girl want!? I stuff my hands into my pockets, walking down the busy street. Forget about her. She's just a annoying pretty girl, she'll go away. Everybody does. She HAS to go away. *Spoiler alert*: she doesn't. Don't get close to people or they'll end up getting hurt. That's my mindset. I've been through enough of that. This girl doesn't belong in my world anyway. She's too innocent. *Mature content* {Just a quick update, I am basically rewriting the story. I wrote it when I was in 8th grade and it makes me cringe every time I try to go back and edit it so keep in mind that it'll get better}Complete
