Leilani Kingston thought she escaped her past. Years ago, her world shattered in one brutal night-her family was murdered, and her brother was wrongfully imprisoned for the crime. She's spent years hiding in the shadows, running from the ghosts of her past and the unknown forces that still want her dead.

But when she crosses paths with Samael, a ruthless underground fighter and feared gang leader, everything changes. Beneath his hardened exterior, Samael sees something in Leilani no one else does-a girl who steals his heart, along with his instinct to protect at any cost.

Enter Phoenix, Samael's fiercest rival and a brutal fighter with an agenda of his own. He wants to see Samael fall. But when Leilani becomes the target of a deadly threat, alliances shift, and enemies are forced to unite.

Can Samael and Phoenix put their hatred aside long enough to keep Leilani alive? Or will the demons of her past-and the war between these two fighters-destroy her first?All Rights Reserved

Slow It Down by WriteOnMyFreeTime

[UPDATED WEEKLY] "You may be his world, but you're the only thing that ever felt like home to me." ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Some people never get second chances. Lilah never thought she'd get one with her brother's best friend. Lilah is quiet, kind, and inexperienced in love. Jackson is all rough edges-tattoos, a bad reputation, and a long history of girls who never stay. They're total opposites, and after years of silence, they're inconveniently forced back into each other's lives as reluctant project partners. Once, Jackson was the boy who helped pull Lilah out of the darkness when she was struggling. He was her best friend-her only friend growing up. Then he walked away without a word. Now, four years later, he's cold, distant, and impossible to read. And if he hates her, Lilah's determined to hate him right back. But when old wounds resurface and secrets unravel, the line between love and hate starts to blur. The boy who once protected her is still in there somewhere-hidden beneath his walls, his reckless reputation, and the weight of a lifelong secret he's been barely holding together that he refuses to talk about. Because some second chances come with a price. And this time, it might be her heart.

The Vipers Temptation | Completed by creativemindxo

After a failed attempt at a relationship, I try to make it on my own. However, I end up with a new neighbor who exudes charm, danger, and sexual energy as if it's a job. To make matters worse, I find myself semi-kidnapped by the same dangerous, foul-mouthed, rude neighbor who turns out to be a part of the Italian Mafia. Now, I'm stuck riding shotgun while being chased by gun-wielding maniacs on our way to someplace "safe." I'm beginning to think this is my new reality. *Trigger Warning* Graphic violence, explicit mature scenes, and non-consensual touching (not from the main love interest).
