"Money and Power"
The authority above all humans!
I love money, the smell intoxicates me and I would do anything for money. While others gather wealth to flaunt, I gather wealth to be able to fight and I wouldn't back down until I win. I've been through fire, through ice and both elements made me stronger than the average woman. What my parents took, I won't take.
My psychologist told me to find my solace, my peace, tranquillity. I only took her advice and currently, I just set sail to journey through the realm that will bring me peace.
My resources; Masen Maverick
My target; Phoenix Emmerich
My name; Adelaide McCauley!

Many have fallen her prey and Masen Maverick isn't left out together with whom she liaises with as they strive to bring down a common enemy in the person of Phoenix Emmerich only that the enemy isn't common at all.

"Enemies with benefits?" I said. "Because if you catch feelings, I'm not catching them back." "Won't ever happen," he said. "This is purely physical. Call it whatever helps you sleep, Monroe. Don't care." He grabbed my blouse and shoved it in my mouth. "If you don't want the crew to hear how hard I fuck you, bite down like your life depends on it. I'm not in the mood for your begging. That's your only warning." I nodded and breathed through my nose as he pushed two fingers in. No warmup. No mercy. My back arched and my eyes rolled.

The Blood Credit [18+][complete]
❝ "Please... please, please," I whine into his mouth, broken and needy. He smirks against my lips, savouring my desperation. "Please what, pretty girl? Hm? Talk to me- I know you can." ❞ ⁺˚⋆｡°✩₊✩°｡⋆˚⁺ At Novae Vale, secrets aren't kept. They're traded. After a year lost to grief, Scarlett Cheslyn-Arden steps through the iron gates of the world's most elite academy and straight into the shadows of the Order, a society where favours have teeth and debts are written in blood. Win the Trials and you earn a single promise powerful enough to crown a king or ruin a family. She's ice-poised, untouchable, determined to survive on her own terms. He's heat-Xavier Caelum, her brother's best friend, her fiancé to be, a walking sin with lazy smiles and razor edges. They're paired for the Trials, bound by rules that make desire dangerous and silence compulsory. Underground fights thrum beneath the pool house. Poker nights hum with champagne and lies. There are masks, messages, and the kind of parties where music vibrates through your bones. In the dark between competitions, their banter turns sharp, their glances turn heavy, and touch becomes a promise neither of them should make. To win the Blood Credit, Scarlett must play the Order's game-clever, ruthless, unafraid. To keep her heart, she should stay away from Xavier. But when power tastes like his mouth and safety looks a lot like his hands on her waist, restraint starts to feel like a losing strategy. A sensual, slow-burn elite dark romance about found family, forbidden desire, and the cost of choosing your own fate-where every secret has a price, and every kiss is a risk.Complete
Phoenix
My entire body felt on fire under his intense gaze. I tried my best to avoid eye contact as he towered over me, but once my eyes met his, the usual amber color of his orbs went darker and darker until they were now of a fervent brown shade and his pupils dilated drastically. The sight shocked me, causing goosebumps to rise all across my arms as electricity shot up my spine and my stomach erupted not in butterflies, but rather, I'd say in pterodactyls. It was both a terrifying and mesmeric sight... ___________________________________________ After being dared to kiss the first person to enter the dark room, 19 year old Essence later finds out that the person she kissed, 21 year old Phoenix, is her hand to hand combat trainer in her new assassin's school.

Helplessly Falling For Mr. Hunter
"I should be allowed." He says with gritted teeth. His voice filled with something. A thing a lot like desire that brings me back to crazy reality. A reality where we are tangled up against each other. "You should be al...-" A gasp escapes my mouth as he lifts me up or rather goes further low for me. His hands, back on my waist. Face buried in the crook of my neck, he inhales into my skin. Still inhaling he lets out a manly groan that I feel everywhere, in places I didn't know existed. The places that come to life because of him. "I should be allowed to touch you." He rasps in my neck. My back arches up and I close my eyes at his declaration. At his domination. At his intoxication. "You should be allowed to touch me." I insist. Brain empty. Because I can't think right now. He lifts his head up then, I notice his eyes have gone darker. His features have gone wilder. Representing an untamed animal in a way. ------------------------- Isabella Evans is your typical good girl who has a bit of a dark past.
