Two was a number that Brooklyn-born Indie Scott was more than familiar with. She had long embraced the idea of duality in all facets of her life: pain and joy, salt and sugar, yin and yang. What would the world be without pairings? This question never had to cross the twenty-one-year-olds mind. That is until the eve of her twenty-second birthday, when a life-altering incident takes place, ultimately expelling Indie to become accustomed to the lone number that is one.

Love Crossed
Some love stories don't need endings. They just bleed into the next chapter. Nine days. That's all they had. A wedding romance in India, over before it began. Three years later, fate drops them in the same Leipzig university, and everything has rotted sweet. She doesn't want his love anymore. She wants his hatred, and she's better at earning it than he expects. He wants her to fall for him again, not for love, but to watch it break her. Neither of them is telling the truth about what happened three years ago. Neither of them is entirely who they used to be. And the girl from those nine days? She isn't always the one answering to her name. Across two continents, through a buried scandal and the wreckage of two families, Love Crossed is a dark romance about the people we become to survive the people we've loved.Complete

"I'm not aborting my baby!" I feel strong hands wrap around my throat, and the next thing I know, I'm being lifted off the floor, fighting for air.

He opened the box, revealing a diamond that caught the light and threw it back in brilliant, cold sparks. "We're getting married." "We're what?" Star's voice cracked. "Are you insane?" "I'm practical. You're pregnant with my child. In my world, that means marriage." "In my world, that means two people who barely know each other shouldn't make life-altering decisions based on one night." "Your world is over." The words were delivered with such calm finality that Star felt the floor shift beneath her feet. "The moment you got pregnant, you entered mine. And in my world, I protect what's mine." "I'm not yours." "The baby is." He picked up a thick document from his desk. "Marriage contract. Very generous terms. You'll have everything you need, house, security, unlimited credit. The child will bear my name and receive my protection." Star stared at the contract, the words blurring as tears she refused to shed burned her eyes. "And what do you get?" "A wife who understands her place. A child raised properly. No custody battles, no media circuses, no complications." "And love?" Something in his expression hardened even further. "Love is a luxury neither of us can afford. This is about security, stability, and giving our child the best possible life. _________________ MOST IMPRESSIVE RANKINGS🏅 #1 in Steamy 10/11/25 #1 in Emotion 19/10/25 #1 in Triangle 11/11/25 #1 in Contract 06/10/25 #2 in Pregnancy 2/10/25 #1 in Mafia. 10/01/26 #1 in Jealous. 19/02/26 READ TO FIND OUT! 💕 New chapters every week!
