I managed a smile then. "Great. What time do we have this deal?"

The day things went from bad to worse for Cleo Petrakovski was the day her mom walked out the door and out her family's lives. For good. Cleo and her brother, Dante, after years of abuse at the hands of their father, vowed to find a way out. For Cleo, that meant college. The farthest one from home. She could get a loan, scholarship, whatever. Whatever it took to get her out of there.
But the world comes to a standstill the moment Dante dies. With her failing grades going even more downhill and barely pulling through to senior year, Cleo puts herself in a situation where she has to find a tutor before her first week runs out. One that'll guide her through her finals if she's ever going to graduate.
What she doesn't expect though, is a deal with Brent, "the pest", Lockwood. A deal in which he'd be her tutor in exchange for . . . her.
Will Cleo be able to scale through the stress of senior year stuck between school work, an unlikely deal and mutual feelings for her ex?

Beneath the Silence
Eleanor, 19, is living on borrowed time. She's continuing her studies not out of passion, but more out of survival instinct. Not because she dreams of a brilliant career, but because the idea of failing-and having to go back home-makes her sick. Home is a house full of heavy silences, unspoken blame, and above all, a mother consumed by addiction. Their relationship is an emotional minefield. Though physically distant, Eleanor is never truly free. And every call, every message from her mother threatens to pull her back into the chaos she's desperate to escape. At college, she tries to hang on. Her only support is Wallace, her best friend since middle school. Always there. Tall, protective, destined for a pro career in basketball. Wallace is steady, radiant-the complete opposite of the world Eleanor comes from. He helps her stay afloat. Keeps her from drowning. Until one day, a figure appears in a campus hallway-and everything shifts. Danny Shepard. The name alone freezes her in place. It takes Eleanor a moment to recognize him: the scrawny, furious boy she knew at sixteen has become a man. Calmer. Darker. More... unreadable. After assaulting his sports coach, Danny was sentenced to juvenile detention and vanished for four years. On his return, he was denied entry into the third year of med school. He enrolled elsewhere, at the bottom rung of the university ladder. Where Eleanor studies. And he doesn't recognize her. She, on the other hand, never forgot. The bond they shared-fragile and secret, woven during adolescence through stolen glances and charged silences-left a mark. But Danny seems to have erased her. Why? Has he truly forgotten? Or has he buried that part of his life? Eleanor senses that behind the cold mask, there's a war raging. Repressed memories. A guilt that never properly healed.

He's evolved; he's cruel and bloodthirsty. They call him the new God of the City. But gods are just monsters with a crown. And Vince has become someone he thought he buried long ago.

A heart lit from fire. She was raised the hard way - but instead of breaking her, it built her. She is all compassion in a world that rewards cruelty. She is sacred. Untouched. His peace. She's made for sin --made for him. And she hasn't noticed him watching. For months. She sets his soul ablaze. He tempts her like winter chill sliding up a summer spine. He's patient...but not patient enough. He wants her because she's the only one who makes the voices go quiet. She makes the blood he's spilled insignificant. She's made the chaos still.

What Pulls and Takes [Tyler Hernández]
Tyler Hernández x GN!reader -- ' I've not been needy for much in my life... but, when I heard you say my name in a palpable honey tone, All I have craved is you ever since. ' -- 𝐘/𝐍 𝐅𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝𝐬. The introverted older sibling to the even-more introverted Logan Fields. It wasn't always like that though; for there was a time when Y/N was a bundle of light wherever they went. Though, after a trip to Greece when they were twelve-years-old, they returned... faded and ghostly quiet. As if they had experienced something no child should. Not many people chose to question what happened to the sweet child. They only had to accept that Y/N was a loner now; cutting all interesting ties with friends and social outings. 𝐓𝐲𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚́𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐳. The cynical jock who tends to carry his head so high, he fails to notice people can see behind his mask from below. Rumours of his father's passing arose when he and his twin sister, Taylor, were seven years old; and he was never the same after that. All extra energy to play turned into more time for studying; all house chores were suddenly in his list without much time to spare. You'd never guess the Hispanic boy with anger issues to be a light refusing to burn out underneath the table of priorities. Well, what happens when Y/N and Tyler hate each other from the start? What will they do when the person that annoyed them the most, start to make the two smile and laugh like no other? They've managed to avoid their pasts for so long; but, they'll have to acknowledge it sooner rather than later when they get stuck in a dimension with their group partners for a history project. Who knew running from monsters who seemingly want to kill you every night, isn't just fiction like television? -- DISCLAIMER: - all proper credit for said characters and story goes to Lilredbeany on WEBTOON. - This story contains strong mentions of death, murder, blood/gore, anxie
