Her beautiful and daring self crosses the border--the biggest mistake ever, because now she is all he can think about.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     Athena grows up witnessing the feuds and hate that transpires between her kingdom, and the kingdom of her erstwhile slave masters.
    Her inability to stand and watch her people get slaughtered one by one lands her under the roof of the son of her father's enemy. 
     She finds herself tending to the almost-fatal stab of a man who would have her dead without a second thought.
     She finds herself falling deeply for the prince of her people's enemies.
     The situation between the two kingdoms begin to stir when the prince of Thestoria, a gorgeous and brutal young man is enamored by a certain Black woman, the one who had saved his life. She is all he can think about and it contradicts everything he's been loathing and fighting for years.

Cold Eyes by koni0lolli

Her world had never been soft. She'd learned too quickly that people could love you one day and rip the ground out from under you the next. So she built herself out of armor: cool smirks, careless words, the lie that she didn't care. She convinced everyone around her that she was untouchable, that she didn't need anyone to stay. That way, if they left, it wouldn't matter. But the truth was, she longed for the chaos. She trusted it more than stability, because at least chaos was honest. At least when something was toxic, when it was tension-filled and dangerous, you knew exactly where you stood- you knew it could hurt you. What unsettled her more was the idea of something pure, something kind, because that was where betrayal liked to hide. He's cold. She's reckless. And somewhere between jealousy, secrets, and a Halloween Party that changes everything Athena learns that sometimes the scariest thing isn't being hated. It's being wanted. *** Writing for my bestfriend!

Leo by CeeCeethewriter

*Bad at descriptions so bare with me* . . . . "Leo, this is my friend Athena and she's been crushing on you since she saw a picture of you." Mandy laughed. I blushed. "I did not she's lying to you." He smirked at me and then frowned, "So I'm ugly , wow I'm offended." "N-NO your not ugly I'm lying." I shouted too quickly. Not knowing he was making a fool of me. Wow Athena you just really started talking to him and your already making a fool. He walked closer and twirled a piece of my hair while I involuntarily shivered at his touch. Mandy somehow disappearing nowhere to be found. "Oh I know Tesoro ." He laughed and walked away. Leaving me shocked and blushing. . . . First story ever. Highest rank : #1 in blackandwhite

Verbal jabs. Public tension. Fights that almost turn physical. But between hallway run-ins, shared classes, detention shifts, and one reckless trip to a lake house, the line between hate and something deeper starts to blur. Secrets unravel. Pain resurfaces. And when a scandalous video threatens to tear everything apart, Athena and Edward must confront what they've both been running from-and whether what's building between them is real, or just another fight waiting to happen.
