Xiona's character has been hardened since the death of her father and the disappearance of her brother. Her new neighbor, called Ian, won't contradict that fact.
She takes pleasure in seeing others suffer, carrying little bottles of strong spirits in her bag, spending a lot of time at the bar "Yae"
Will her neighbor be able to show her that life can be sunny, even on rainy days, while another man reaches out to her from a world far darker than her own?
She dreams of nothing, yet her mind is filled with nightmares. At night, when she's not asleep, the worries multiply, amplify as the clock ticks. Tomorrows darken and the worst becomes the worst, nothing seems possible or surmountable, nothing seems peaceful anymore. Insomnia, the dark side of the imagination, takes hold in the early hours of the morning. Numb, disaster scenarios become extravagant, hoping that the day will erase our memories. She gets up and take a shower, wishing to stop this torture. Sometimes, the night reveals a truth: time runs like an hourglass, and things will never be the same again.

FALLEN FOR A BAD BOY {BAD MEETS BADDEST}
She witnessed horror... and became one. After surviving a harrowing near-rape and watching her best friend brutally assaulted and murdered before her eyes, Aurora vanished-emotionally. What rose from the ashes was someone unrecognizable: Cold. Fearless. Savage. Untouchable. She trusts no one. Loves no one. And as far as she's concerned, no man alive could ever break through her fortress of ice. Love? Dead. Her rules? Simple. No emotions. No attachments. No second chances. But her new college? A battlefield. And him? Leonard Grande - the kind of trouble she didn't prepare for. Wounded. Rebellious. Addictive. Dangerous. A walking paradox with a face carved by gods and a soul damaged by demons. A notorious playboy who takes pleasure in breaking girls, shredding hearts like paper-because he believes every girl is a liar in disguise. Until Aurora. She doesn't look at him like he matters. She doesn't fall. She doesn't even flinch. And that pisses him off. Now it's war. A toxic game of destruction and seduction. She wants to erase him. He wants to ruin her. But when secrets from the past start surfacing, both realize they've been walking in the dark... and maybe-just maybe-they were destined to collide. How deep do their scars go? And who's really pulling the strings in this web of pain and passion. Dive into a dark college romance where love is a weapon, trust is deadly, and only the strongest survive. When bad meets baddest... there are no rules. Trigger Warning: This story contains themes of sexual violence, emotional trauma, murder, psychological manipulation, and abusive behavior.

"Growing up, my mother always told me one thing; bad company corrupted good morals. I didn't believe her, didn't believe those words she'd always said to me with such conviction. I'd always thought myself strong, always thought myself good enough to corrupt those bad morals. That was until I crossed paths with a man so lethal, a man so utterly consumed with darkness.

I point to a random car, further away from where we're standing. "And why would I do that?" He lifts a brow, amused. "Because I can't stand to be in your presence. You make me sick." He looks taken aback by that, but then his face darkens as he drawls. "You didn't seem to be sick when I had my tongue down your throat last night. In fact, I recall you moaning for more."
Lilah
She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)Complete
One With Shadows
"I let him walk me through his whole plan to help me start a whole new life, like he was giving me directions to the nearest coffee shop. He made it sound just that easy. If only it was. I wouldn't keep finding the parts of my life, of myself, ripped to shreds. I wouldn't be left standing to try and put it all back together again. It had happened so many times very little of the girl I used to be remained, just whispers of ghosts in my soul were left." She was an assassin of the highest caliber, one of the best that exists, and she hunts and kills the world's most dangerous criminals. And she's only 23. No name, no identity, no proof that she exists. The only ones who could identify her are no longer of this earth. But it hadn't always been that way. She's proof that not all monsters are born, some are made. Then the one last shred of humanity that exists within her slips, and so does her target. Will the man she aimed to kill unravel her past? Will he finally piece all the broken parts of her together and find out how she became a killer? Not without the fight of both their lives.Complete
The Death Tableau: Spark
As he guided the young woman toward the wall filled with portraits he called the Death Portrait, he felt cold water being poured onto the fire burning inside him. The sudden change in temperature left the flames caught between dying out and burning brighter. When the young woman's hip brushed against the old, brown table leaning against the wall, she pulled her lips away from his - lips so warm they could melt him from the inside. She sat on the table without breaking eye contact, her icy blue eyes locked on his hazel ones. Wrapping her arms tighter around his neck like a snake coiling around its prey, she pulled him closer. Her back pressed against the photo of their sworn enemy, Aslan Sönmez, whose disgusting smile haunted them - but neither of them noticed, too caught up in the pull between them. "You," the man murmured, brushing his lips against the exposed skin of her neck, "you are the thing I fear most in this world." "Why?" she whispered, winding her legs around his waist to draw him in even more. He pulled back from her neck and met her icy gaze - cold enough to extinguish the flames of revenge burning within him. "When all I want is to destroy those in the Death Portrait... you're the one thing that holds me back. Your coldness puts out my fire." The young woman ran her slender fingers through the hair at the nape of his neck, a soft smile playing on her beautiful lips. "Without the cold, you'd never understand the value of fire. That's why... I won't put it out. I can't." And she hadn't. As Fire and Ice completed one another, his thirst for vengeance grew into something far more powerful - something capable of destroying everyone.Complete
