Kori is shy and timid, often finding comfort in the background rather than the spotlight. She's perfectly content with finishing her college years quietly, focusing on her studies and supporting her friends from the sidelines. While her striking appearance draws attention, she prefers to blend in, letting her more outgoing friends take the lead. Deep down, she yearns for connection and adventure, but the thought of stepping out of her comfort zone makes her hesitate. Kori embodies a gentle spirit, navigating her world with caution while secretly longing for moments that challenge her quiet demeanor.

Myles is a striking figure, embodying a rough-around-the-edges charm that draws attention wherever he goes. With his chiseled features and confident posture, he exudes an air of arrogance that often puts people off, yet somehow makes him the most desired man on campus. Beneath his tough exterior lies a longing for a deeper connection, one that transcends the superficial relationships he typically encounters. He struggles with vulnerability, often masking his true feelings with a facade of indifference. Despite his rudeness, there's an intriguing complexity to him, hinting at a sensitivity waiting to be discovered by the right person.

Through shared experiences and unexpected moments, they build a connection that challenges both of them to grow, ultimately transforming their lives in ways they never anticipated. What starts as a clash of opposites evolves into a deep bond, as they learn that love can emerge from the most unlikely of beginnings.

"I call this one pain. And this lil one right here under his wing is suffering." "No offense, but...who the hell would wanna be reminded of pain and Suffering? If I was going to get something etched into my skin forever, I'd want something that would bring me joy." His grin bemused her. As if he expected her to contradict his moral logic. "True that, shorty. And I agree, no doubt. But who's to say my birds don't bring me joy?" Dumbfounded, Jett lifted her eyes from the silhouetted birds up to meet his tender gaze, stumped on how to answer his question. She shrugged with one arm, "Do they?" * * * Jett Jaletta has enough of her own problems. Unreliable family members that depend on her for everything, too many bills with not enough income. And a federal probation sentence that's held her hostage for the past three years. The last thing she needs is the drama that comes along with a handsome face, drama that could jeopardize everything she's working for - a liberating dance career. But Roman Carter isn't liable for the damage caused by his blessed good genes. As a matter of fact, his alluring appearance and its effect on the opposite sex is the furthest on his list of priorities. The recent murder of his only brother has left him unfocused, indignant, and irrevocably heartbroken. Well, he is focused on one thing...retribution. BlackBiirds is the intertwining story of two characters-who's deepest pains and struggles happen to be caused by the other person. Ironically, surrounding situations, dangerous rivals, and even their own family members cause these two to become tangled in ways they can't escape from. * * * BLACKBiiRDS is the rewritten, reworked 2.0 version of its former draft: Souled Out.

This time, I can't help but flinch as he touches me and pulls the other strap down .. bearing my other shoulder to his eyes. "Anthony .. you can't say those things. We .. we're supposed to be best friends." As I try to reason with him, he begins to kiss my shoulder .. making the words come out so much more weaker than intended. Anthony stays quiet after what I say, or rather he ignores me, instead using his other hand to play with the skin on my stomach exposed from the top. "I know .." He trails off. I hold my breath, anxious as I wait to hear what he's going to say next. "But I don't know if that's enough for me anymore .." Anthony moves my hair to side, and the words he speaks are paired with a slow kiss to the nape of my neck. Beatrix thought she'd never trust another guy again.

"What's with the glare? Just a few admirers for the beauty, West." I smirk, teasing his jealousy. "Because beautiful doesn't justify you sweetheart, you... you're not just beautiful, you're extraordinary. And it drives me mad. I don't want anyone else laying eyes on you. They wouldn't survive the night if they tried." "What will you do about it? Threaten them?" I move closer to him. His hand finds my face, gently stroking my cheek, "If I have to. Anyone who thinks they can take you, better think twice. You are precious to me, you're not just another pretty face. You are mine and I'm yours, and I intend to keep it that way.
