Just 15 Seconds. 

21, but already involved in a roller coaster of emotions. Tall, but not enough to tower him. Witty, but not enough to affect him. Who knew one of their lives would be dependent on each other?

Amber Avery Lopez is a simple New Yorker and Colombian, a gold medalist in swimming, and a person who takes no bull from anyone. She lives in a modernized townhome in NYC along with her loving family consisting of her mother, father, and her irritating elder brother (as she would put it). She was blessed to never have financial problems as her father owns a simple, but significant empire. All she wants to do is get through her final year of university, but that final year was without a doubt, the most emotion-induced year she's had.

Ace William Woods, moving back to New York and transferring to another university for his final year.  He isn't your typical bad boy, though. Not really. Arrogant? Most definitely. His looks have it all. His height, his physique, everything a girl would want in a boy- or a man, as he would put it. Every girl, except for Amber. Ever since their first encounter, Ace had made a bad impression on Amber, leaving her to hate him with a burning passion. Their enmity is something the university finally found interesting after years of boredom. 

But what will happen after that one fateful day? Trust, betrayal.....pity?

Hearts on Veils [BxB] (Book 2 in the Heart Series) by Wren_BurnsWrites44
57 parts Complete Mature
Mason, a guilt-ridden high school athlete, must confront his internalized homophobia and toxic relationship with Iago, in order to find redemption and healing after a tragedy. (Can be read as a stand alone) -- Mason Cardova is drowning. A year ago, he was the golden boy of Mosley High-talented, popular, untouchable. Now, he's nothing. The whole town knows what he did. They know how he bullied Ontario Hackman, how he pushed him to the edge and watched him fall. They know his name was on Ontario's suicide note. They whisper it in the hallways. They carve it into bathroom stalls. They throw it at him like a knife every time they pass him in the halls. Killer. Monster. Waste of space. His friends abandoned him. His father beats him bloody. His mother doesn't care. And Mason? Mason isn't sure how much longer he can survive in the wreckage of his own making. Then there's Iago Rivera. Older, jaded, and thoroughly unimpressed with Mason's bullcrap, Iago is everything Mason isn't-strong, disciplined, untouchable. He doesn't drink, doesn't spiral, doesn't tolerate Mason's reckless self-destruction. He's made a life for himself, one that doesn't include babysitting a self-loathing high school burnout with a death wish. But Mason keeps coming back. He doesn't know why. Maybe it's the way Iago looks at him-not with pity, not with judgment, just sharp, cold indifference. Maybe it's the way Iago sees through him, sees the wounds Mason hides under bruises and bravado. Maybe it's because, for the first time in his life, someone refuses to let him get away with running from himself. Their relationship is toxic, messy, and doomed from the start. A slow-burn collision between a boy who doesn't know how to be saved and a man who stopped trying to save people a long time ago. But when Mason loses the last person tethering him to this world, he finds himself on Iago's doorstep-broken, bleeding, and out of places to run. And Iago makes the mistake of letting him in.

°•♧The quiet before the storm♧•° by @lorvy_nn. tt:marcel_xzs. "She was the most precious thing my eyes had ever witness,she was like a butterfly gentle and delicate and i was gonna do everything to protect her". ꒷꒦︶꒷꒦︶ ๋ ࣭ ⭑꒷꒦꒷꒦︶꒷꒦︶ ๋ ࣭ ⭑꒷꒦ Avery Hart is an 18-year-old college freshman with big dreams of becoming a lawyer. Sweet, kind-hearted, and determined, she always sees the best in people, which makes her lovable but also vulnerable. Avery enjoys volleyball, surfing, and reading, using surfing as an emotional escape. She's in a relationship with Diego Martinez, captain of the rugby team who has a perfect,sweet and open relationship. in her apartment, Avery navigates college life, betrayal, and new friendships while unexpectedly crossing paths with Adrian Ryde, a charming yet mysterious figure. Her journey is one of growth, self-discovery, and balancing her aspirations with the complexities of love and trust. Here's a revised description of Adrian, focusing on his cold demeanor towards others and how he feels differently about Avery: Adrian Ryde is the kind of guy people notice, but no one truly knows. He's charming when he wants to be, with an easy smile and an air of confidence that makes him the center of attention in almost any room. But while others might see him as a socialite or someone who just fits in effortlessly, those who get closer quickly realize that Adrian keeps everyone at arm's length. He's cold, distant, and always seems to be holding something back. Adrian doesn't care to form close connections with people, and his emotional walls are as solid as they come. He's the kind of guy who stays calm, collected, and rarely lets anyone see beneath the surface. He's fine with people admiring him from a distance, but he doesn't let anyone get too close. That is, until he meets Avery. There's something about her that gets under Adrian's skin in ways he can't explain.
