Born to Break Barriers
In a world gripped by control and fear, women have vanished from power-silenced by a mysterious virus unleashed by a ruthless organization of men known only as The Order. But one girl refuses to be erased. She remembers a time before the rules changed. Before girls were forced into hiding, before hope was outlawed. She has no name to give-not anymore. But she has a mission. And it starts with a trail of red ivy, a safehouse cloaked in shadows, and a projection of a mother she hasn't seen in months. When a charming but suspicious boy named Luke crosses her path, everything shifts. He's too kind, too helpful-and he knows more than he should. As danger closes in and a deadly tracker follows their every move, the girl must decide if she can trust the one person who might be lying to her... or if she's walking straight into a trap. Secrets will be exposed. Bonds will be broken. And in a world built to destroy her, she will uncover what she was born to do. She wasn't made to obey. She was born to break barriers.Complete
The Ashford Affair

I whispered, rubbing my lips against his neck and breathing in his scent. "What about your mother?" He muttered, an undercurrent of panic in his voice. "Forget about her."

His Undeniable Claim | 18+
'You see this hair? You can't imagine how many times I've imagined it wrapped in my fists while I fuck your tight, sweet pussy,' he stated, his voice deep and inviting. And gosh, if words could fuck, I'd have an orgasm right now. My breath hitched, and I could feel my chest rising up and down. God, so he thinks of fucking me too? My cheeks reddened as I imagined him pounding into me. 'Do you want me to fuck you, hm?' he asked, his hands twirling my hair, then moving to the curve of my ass. ──── ୨୧ ──── He watches her like a sinner craving salvation- but there's nothing innocent about what he wants. Niccolò Romano isn't her brother. Not by blood. Not by law. But sharing a house with your childhood best friend turned cold, silent, six-foot-something heartthrob? That's dangerous. Lenora walks around in tiny shorts and soft tank tops, driving him crazy-and maybe she knows. Maybe she wants him to snap. And when he does, it's not sweet. It's intense. Possessive. Obsessive. He shows up in her room at midnight, voice low, jaw tight, telling her no one gets to touch her, look at her, or even think about her. Because she's his. And he doesn't care who finds out-parents, campus, or the entire world. Off-limits? Too late. Forbidden? Way past that. Once Niccolò lays his hands on her, there's no undoing it. No hiding it. No going back. She was never his to want- but now that he's had a taste, He'll ruin everything just to keep her. Living under the same roof, Lenora must decide if she can resist Niccolò's pull-or surrender to the past and passion that bind them.
