❝He wasn't my lover, he was my enemy ❞
~
I stood there, locked eyes with Asher Hendrix, and felt as if he drove the final dagger into my heart. The realization hit me like a train - he was one of the men who had attempted to kill me that night, one of the traitors who had broken my trust. Despite the warmth of the air around me, goosebumps prickled my bare arms.
I had been living a lie; my supposed family was nothing but a facade. The shocking revelation that my brother had orchestrated the attempt on my life left me reeling. At that moment, amidst the turmoil of deceit and betrayal, one thing became clear: Asher Hendrix, Riven Hale, and their merry band of traitors would regret the day they crossed paths with me.

Somewhere Between Us
"Loving you is exhausting and hard. Give me a freaking break." he said. "Then why are you still here?", she whispered with a pale and trembling voice, holding back the tears that were willing to fall down her cheeks. Laura never wanted to fall in love with someone she couldn't touch - someone who only existed behind a screen, a voice borne by time zones and poor connections. But Evan made distance seem hazardous. He made every silence burn. "You could've stopped talking to me." she said to him once. "I tried," he said. "You just wouldn't leave my fucking head." Somewhere in between their late-night phone calls and the words they never spoke, something real started to take shape - delicate, wrong, and beautiful. But love such as theirs was going to shatter. It was constructed on waiting, on jealousy, on all the things they couldn't have. And maybe that's the cruelest kind of love - the kind that feels infinite, but ends the moment you wake up. Until Aiden walked in - the man who was real, present, and everything Evan couldn't be. Aman who had actually been beside her even when she broke his heart, even when she drifted away to chase someone who made her heart ache in ways she never imagined. "He doesn't deserve you. please wake up Lau." Aiden told her. "Then why does it still feel like he's the one?" she whispered. "You're crazy." Somewhere between what she wanted and what she needed, Laura lost control. Between time zones and heartbreak, between messages and memories, something between them had shattered. Because sometimes, love doesn't ask you to choose between two people - it asks you to choose which part of yourself you're willing to destroy.
TWINS
Kian exhaled sharply, the sound almost like a laugh. "You knew this was happening. You knew I wasn't get it, and you just sat there... let me get humiliated in front of everyone." Ezra's gaze was steady. "You're not being humiliated, Kian. You're being impatient." Kian turned, his voice rising. "What's wrong with wanting more? Huh? You've had everything growing up. A family. A name. A life. I had nothing. Nothing but a broken past and that bastard's surname." Ezra stood now, voice calm but clipped. "And you think storming into the boardroom demanding a crown is how you fix that?" Kian's eyes darkened. "Don't act like you understand. I didn't have the luxury of being groomed for leadership. I was surviving. And your mother..." he spat the word, "... she made damn sure I stayed dead." A flicker of emotion crossed Ezra's face. "Don't talk about her like that." Kian's voice was low but firm. "You don't move like that, Ezra... not toward your own twin." And with that, he turned and walked out, leaving Ezra in silence, the weight of unspoken truths hanging heavy in the air.Complete

DO YOU REALLY HATE EACH OTHER? (MXMXM)
Theodore Vales 🌸 Do you really hate each other? Because I don't think you do. I've seen hatred before. It is clean. Sharp. Cold. What you two have is anything but. It is fire, restless and consuming. It is tension so thick the air trembles when you walk into the same room. It is silence heavy with everything unsaid, every word buried because neither of you knows how to bleed without drawing blood. And yet-when you reach for me, both of you, your hands brush too close. Your eyes flicker not just to me but to each other, even if only for a second. You think I don't notice, but I do. I notice the longing beneath the fury, the way your anger is only the shadow of something deeper. You both want me. And I-I want you both. But maybe it was never only about me. Maybe it has always been about 'us'. Three. A number most would call too much. Too messy. Too impossible. And yet, in the way you breathe, in the way you break, in the way you burn-I see it. Three is the only way this story could ever be told. So I'll ask again. Do you really hate each other? Or is hate just another word for everything you're too afraid to confess? A story of rivals, longing, and the kind of love that breaks all rules. 🌸🌸🌸☁☁☁🌸🌸🌸 ⚠️ Viewer's Discretion is Advised ⚠️ This story contains mature themes and is intended for adult audiences.
