Now's not the fucking time," I stop myself from rambling. "Put the gun down," Louis demands. "Or we will shoot!" "What if I shoot first," I challenge. "Five of us and two of you. You knock down one or two of us we'll have your name on a gravestone," Louis grins evilly. "Are you underestimating my shooting skills?" I question. "Do you want to find out," Louis dares. "No! No the fuck we don't," Chase yells. He shoots me a 'what the fuck is wrong with you' look and I shrug.

I Love You, Dangerously by Jensatire

Betrayal. Survival. Revenge. Beneath the badge and the uniform, Lisa leads a double life. By day, she's a police officer bound by law. By night, she's a covert agent for a secret organization-one that doesn't just uphold justice but eliminates threats for the right price. A life of deception, bloodshed, and sacrifice... all to protect the mother who never once saw her as enough. Jennie is a monster the world fears, a killer who carves her vengeance into the bodies of those who wronged her. Her mother discarded and murdered in cold blood. The only thing Jennie has ever wanted is retribution, and she'll burn the world down to get it. That's how she found herself entangled with the Big Boss-a man of power, wealth, and secrets deeper than she ever imagined. But when a desperate choice pulls her back into the clutches of a man she swore to destroy, she's forced to play a deadly game, one where loyalty is a weapon and trust is the first thing to die. Lisa was ordered to hunt Jennie down, to bring her to the Big Boss in exchange for her family's safety. It was supposed to be simple. But nothing is simple when you fall in love with the very person you're meant to betray. With their lives hanging by a thread, Lisa and Jennie must fight their way through a web of lies, power, and unseen enemies lurking in the shadows. But in a world where nothing is as it seems, survival isn't just about escaping. It's about knowing who the real enemy is before it's too late.

Our beloved hero, and deuteragonist of this spin off, meets up with a strange, mysterious young woman named Lydia Harrison. He befriended her, and thhe two became acquaintances, college neighbors and later allies. By day time, Lydia is a regular freshwoman blending in a big university, but by night she is a galactic spy agent with an alias of Rogue Rigel, sent on a mission to apprehend and exterminate abominable criminals. (And no, she's not an alien, nor does she come from a foreign planet.) Jordan discovers Lydia's other half of herself and decides to help her accomplish her mission in Los Angeles to exterminate the Icy Roller Blader, Frostbite. However on Lydia's task to save the city, She is greatly overwhelmed by a vigilante, who shares the same assignment of exterminating Frostbite. To make this worse, he's come to hunt her as well. This spin off will explore a new main character's lore as we delve into a new journey, somewhere between The Fallen Rises OG's The Boy Northern (Novel 1) & Power Pendants (Novel 2).

Sophie Bennett has never been lucky in love. After a series of broken relationships where lies and betrayal always seem to find their way to the surface, she's closed off her heart, convinced that true love is just a fantasy. That is, until one fateful night at The Hideaway, a bar tucked away from the chaos of Vanderbilt City. When Sophie meets Caleb Turner, she's drawn to him in a way she hasn't felt in years. Charismatic and easy to talk to, Caleb is everything she's been craving: someone who listens, understands, and makes her feel truly seen. Their connection is electric, and Sophie starts to believe maybe, just maybe, she could finally have the love she's always dreamed of. But Caleb has a secret-a truth buried so deep it could shatter everything they've built. As their chemistry intensifies, the unspoken tension between them grows, until one day, Caleb is forced to come clean. The revelation is enough to crush Sophie's spirit, leaving her questioning everything she thought she knew about trust and her own worth. Heartbroken and betrayed, Sophie makes the difficult decision to walk away, vowing never to repeat the same mistakes. But as time passes, she unexpectedly finds herself drawn to someone new-someone who offers her a chance at a love unlike anything she's ever known. As Sophie opens her heart again, she discovers that love doesn't always come in the form you expect, and sometimes, the biggest surprises are the ones that heal you.
