Bad Guys by mauveismalicious

WARNING: This is a no morals dark romance story. Read at your own risk. Are you looking for a kind and loving heroine, to follow through an inspiring adventure for love and happiness? Well you won't find that here. Because the guy is bad, and the girl is worse... Apple had always been a lonely girl. She was different from the rest. In a way she could never change. And if she wanted to fit in, she would need to strip every piece of herself bare and start from scratch, remodel herself bit by bit into the perfect and untouchable girl she wanted to be. Especially if she didn't want a repeat of middle school. Cassian, on the other hand, had never struggled with making friends. Boys worshipped him, and girls flocked to his feet for attention. He had a natural playfulness and charm which always drew people to him. However, when Apple was first brought to his notice in the 7th grade after a certain event, both of their lives changed forever. And Cassian grew to hate Apple more then he'd ever hated anyone before. What could have happened between these two all those years ago? And will they finally reconcile now that they're in their final year of high school? Or will their mutual hatred escalate into something with actual lives at stake.

Remy was not a threat because he trusted Astrid to make her own decisions in love and life.

Ava by Missraven01

Here's a for you story 🌸 It's catchy, emotional, and written to grab attention - --- ### **Story Description:** Ava just wanted a quiet senior year - no drama, no attention, no disasters. But fate clearly didn't get the memo. First, she nearly gets *hit by a car* on her way to school (and somehow makes a new friend out of it). Then, before she can even recover from that near-death morning, she trips in the hallway straight into the arms of a boy she's *never seen before* - the kind of boy who smirks like he knows all your secrets. Kian Rivers. Tall. Infuriating. Way too confident. And apparently, everywhere she turns. What starts as a clumsy encounter spirals into something neither of them can ignore. Between chaotic parties, whispered teasing, and unspoken tension, Ava finds herself caught between irritation and attraction - and maybe, something dangerously in between. Because sometimes, the people you collide with by accident are the ones you were meant to find all along. ---
