Aurora(19), desperate to achieve her dream, fakes her medical records to secure her scholarship at the University of Michigan. She's careful, meticulous-until she crosses paths with Xavier Rivera(28). He's dangerous, feared, and completely captivated by her innocence. He sees the fire in her, the will to survive, and he wants her.
But Aurora isn't easily won. After escaping a toxic and abusive relationship, she's wary of men like Xavier-possessive, intense, and powerful. Yet, when her ex-boyfriend resurfaces, determined to drag her back into his twisted world, she realizes Xavier may be the only one who can truly protect her.
The problem? Xavier doesn't do things by the book. And Aurora, no matter how much she tries to resist, starts falling for the man everyone warns her about.
But what happens when Xavier finds out about her lie? Will he use it against her, or will he be the one person who understands why she did it?

The Devil ✔
DIABOLIC SERIES 1 Simply put, this story is about a boy who calls himself the Devil and a girl who has gone through hell. Being 'happy' doesn't come as easy to Emma Carter as the people around her tell her it should. There's glimpses of it, there's things she finds funny, but actual happiness? She wasn't sure if that existed. Healthy coping mechanisms were never something she was taught, even after trauma and grief change her daily life. To say the very least, Emma Carter was reckless with her own life. That wasn't exactly something that Xavier Wolf liked. The Wolf boy, true to his name, was a feral force of nature not many liked to taunt. While his mouth got him in trouble and his fists got him arrested, his heart earned him the girl that sat in the back of his photography class, even if he's convinced he's no good for her. A girl Xavier knew he'd protect, even when the worse of his dark thoughts came to pass. That's without knowing about the darkness in Emma's own mind. *** "I'm at the point of exhaustion in my life, where I need a stronger word than fuck." Emma sighs, cheek resting on her fist. Xavier Wolf smirks, leaning back in his chair. "Aren't you adorable."Complete

Xavier [COMPLETED]
"Close your eyes." he croaked, I did as I was told without any disobedience. "Have you any idea how badly I want to kiss you right now?" I shook my head in reply. "Badly, so fucking badly." he whispered as his harsh breath fanned across my cheek. Dark haired and tattooed, Xavier looked like the ultimate bad boy...but weren't bad boys meant to have that boyish charm? The thing is, Xavier was extremely guarded, hot headed and quite frankly, scary. In fact, Xavier was many things but romantic and loving wasn't two of them. He was a building half built, a puzzle with half of the pieces missing... Until he met me. Warning: Bad language (lots of). A possessive delinquent that is guaranteed to make you smile (or cry.)Complete
