Lex is a business tycoon now with billions of dollars to his name and a handful of companies all over the continent. But it wasn't always like this. His humble beginning and rocky past were all a part of shaping his present life.

However, if you asked him, he would say his turning point was her. Everything he did to get him to where he is now has its motivation in the one face haunting his dreams. The thread that holds together his past and present is the one woman in his past who seemed unattainable back then. Now, all the reasons why he should not have her are gone and his heart hasn't stopped yearning for his Elora. He just needs to convince her.

°                °                °
Elora couldn't understand why he didn't fight for her. He said he was not worthy of her but he didn't understand that she was the unworthy one. Everything had come against their love and despite how hard she held on, in the end he left.

Picking up the broken pieces of her heart and learning to move on has been her focus the last decade, only deep down she knows that her heart still belongs to the troubled teenager she found buying a headphone those many years ago.

The Swan 2: Taking Flight by JaideHarley

*COMPLETE*** "You're not playing fair," I whispered, shuddering when I felt his lips and the stubble on his jaw brush against the side of my neck. "I don't recall making rules," he said, lifting his head, our noses nearly touching as he stared into my eyes. "If there aren't rules, then I can't be playing unfair." "Friends don't talk this close," I said as he took a step closer. "Or touch this much." "Friends also don't respond to their friends' touch the way you are to mine," he said, bringing his hand up to my jaw and tilting my face up towards his, his lips centimeter from mine. "I personally think you set our friendship up for failure by assuming our connection could be ignored. I've never been good at friendship anyway, I say we try something I could do better at." "What could you do better at, Milo?" I asked, a shaky breath escaping me as his lips leaned in closer and only turned away from mine at the last minute. His lips brushed against my ear as his hand moved to the back of my head, threading through my hair as he whispered. "Us." Emery has been in Europe the last eight months. She deals with the challenges of being a growing star with sometimes overly interested fans and people coming back in her life now that she's succeeding. Not only that, she had to nurse a broken heart with her lover, Milo, and was doing the best she could, so good she met someone new. It seemed the new man in her life was more than enough for her feelings for Milo to dissipate, or at least she thought, until Milo contacts her. Milo's been going through some intensive personal growth as his psychologist works with him on some unresolved issues and challenges that went undiagnosed when Milo was a child. Milo is in the process of learning to break free from poisonous words that filled his head as a child. Through it all he had one goal in sight: to be well enough to be with Emery. He works up the courage to contact her but finds a lot can change in a few months.

Wicked Hearts by keminx

Alexis "Lex" Navarro doesn't play by anyone's rules-especially not men. Confident, fearless, and unapologetically bold, she's the storm that everyone knows not to mess with. She's got a sharp tongue, a killer instinct, and a penchant for causing chaos wherever she goes. No man has ever been able to hold her attention for long-until Callum "Cal" Hayes walks into her world. Cal is the exact opposite of the type she's used to-quiet, calculated, and a master of watching rather than acting. As a former boxer turned businessman with a dark, unspoken past, he's got an air of danger that's impossible to ignore. And when Lex steps into his underground poker game, throwing off every expectation, Cal can't look away. She's got the confidence of someone who owns the world, but something about her makes him want to break every rule he's ever set for himself. The slow-burn tension between them becomes undeniable, and their games of power, control, and mutual obsession blur the lines between hate and something darker, more dangerous. As an old rival from Cal's past resurfaces, threatening everything Cal has built, Lex is caught in the crossfire-except Lex doesn't run. She doesn't need saving, and she'll fight to the end to prove it. But Cal's protective instincts are on overdrive, and he'll do whatever it takes to keep her out of harm's way-even if it means breaking his own heart in the process. Lex isn't the type to be coddled, and Cal isn't the type to let her go. The question is-will their obsession with each other destroy them, or will they be forced to confront the flames they've both been dancing with all along? *Wicked Hearts* is a story of fire and ice, passion and power, and the slow-burning tension between two people who are constantly on the edge of crossing a line they never expected to cross.

THE MILLION DOLLAR AFFAIR by ishyplease

"This isn't your game to control," I bit out, stepping back, gripping the doorframe as if it could keep me grounded. He didn't move. Just watched me. Studied me. The weight of his stare was unbearable. "You're playing with fire, Emily." "I know." "And yet, you keep coming closer." Emily never meant to step into his world-a world of wealth, power, and dangerous secrets. But from the moment she crossed paths with Matthias Cambria, everything changed. For Matthias, control is everything. Emily is a complication he never saw coming, a temptation he should resist. But the more he tries to push her away, the more he finds himself dragged into a dangerous game of desire and defiance. Some lines shouldn't be crossed. Some names shouldn't be spoken. And some obsessions are impossible to escape.

Illumined Desires by arthyawrites

"He looked at her like he just realized what love is." ✮ ⋆ ˚｡𖦹 ⋆｡°✩ "Can I..." I hesitated for a moment, but because it's the one thing I needed most, I pushed through, "will you just hold me for a minute." He didn't hesitate and tugged me against his chest. His arms wrapped tightly around me, and then I felt his breaths warming the top of my head. Slowly, I turned my cheek, and then I listened to his steady heartbeat. I shoved all my fear, my confusion, and my uncertain feelings for him aside and allowed myself to be weak. I closed my eyes, and grabbing hold of his sides, I fisted the fabric of his shirt. Before the tears come, I pulled away from him but he took one look at my face then yanked me back to him. Emotions whirled in my chest, and then a new one joined the chaos. Affection. It's as if he knows exactly what I need without me having to say a word. He pressed kisses against my hair, his voice an anchor that kept me from drowning as he murmured, "It's okay, love." Another kiss, and his arms clamped tightly around me. "You have me."

UNCONDITIONALLY YOURS by Rae_ans_

(COMPLETED) He's everything she hates. A rich, arrogant, cocky playboy. She should be repulsed by him, but from the first moment she met him face to face, her heart of ice ineluctably set on fire. He had one mission. Something he had struggled for his entire life. Something that he was so determined to do, he once believed there nothing that could stand in his way. He should have known better. Nothing that you long desperately enough for comes without a price. But what price do you have to pay when you start to spend a little too much time around the one you were born to despise. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I don't have anything to bribe you with, only my own words. Tell me, how will you ever be free if you do not take a risk every once in a while?" "I take risks." "You may take risks that give you freedom from your life, but I have a feeling this risk is a little different on many levels, correct me if I'm wrong." I began to think, did one single day really matter? Maybe it would help, maybe it was all I needed to stop thinking about him. "Make the most of it as it will both the first and the last time you are taking me to lunch, let alone ever seeing me again."
