"You have to stop doing that." "Stop doing what?" "Saying things that make me want to kiss you when I can't."    Becoming the prince's personal bodyguard should be a dream come true, shouldn't it? Good pay, palace life, but the real gem that everyone covets? A chance to captivate or simply befriend the future king. However, for Larissa Fable, being entrusted to safeguard Prince Casimir Hughes appears to be one of her greatest misgivings in life. Refusing to accept a female bodyguard, Casimir vows to brew more chaos than ever, going as far as burning an apartment to cinders. However, fate takes an unexpected turn when they embark on a clandestine journey in search of a missing princess. As they venture deeper, shadows of concealed truths, some irredeemably grave, begin to surface between them. Each revelation, a crack in the façade of appearances. Larissa cannot help but find herself teetering on the edge of a precipice that threatens not just her identity, but her very life. Yet, amidst the haunting echoes of secrets, Larissa and Casimir find themselves drawn together in ways neither anticipated. A stolen glance lingers a second too long and their hearts race incomprehensibly, an illicit melody of emotions. Bound by agonising lies and a growing yet forbidden desire for one another, they stand at the edge of a treacherous and uncertain future - a place where love and fate collide in a perilous dance. ~~~ A blossoming love story between a girl with a radical dream and a reckless prince she, unfortunately, has to rely on for it to come true.    Amazing cover by @tzehleng Pictures used in banners, covers and any graphics are not owned by me, all credits belong to the owners of those images.

39 parts Complete Mature

My entire body felt on fire under his intense gaze. I tried my best to avoid eye contact as he towered over me, but once my eyes met his, the usual amber color of his orbs went darker and darker until they were now of a fervent brown shade and his pupils dilated drastically. The sight shocked me, causing goosebumps to rise all across my arms as electricity shot up my spine and my stomach erupted not in butterflies, but rather, I'd say in pterodactyls. It was both a terrifying and mesmeric sight... ___________________________________________ After being dared to kiss the first person to enter the dark room, 19 year old Essence later finds out that the person she kissed, 21 year old Phoenix, is her hand to hand combat trainer in her new assassin's school. Will the chemistry between them lead to a successful love formula? Or will it all combust? ___________________________________________ #9collegeromance (12/14/2019) #1assassinschool (6/6/2020) #1teammates (26/2/2021) #1spying (9/14/2020) #2russia (9/22/2020) #1boxing (18/3/2021) #4illegal (30/8/2021) #1assassin (11/9/2021)
