In the ruthless and competitive atmosphere of Harvard's premed program, two fierce academic rivals are unexpectedly thrust together at Johns Hopkins Hospital. 

***

Emily Carter, a determined and ambitious premed student, has meticulously constructed walls around her heart, built from years of personal disappointment and the relentless pursuit of perfection.

In stark contrast, Liam Grant, a brilliant but overconfident competitor, conceals his insecurities behind a facade of charm and the heavy weight of familial expectations.

As they are compelled to collaborate in the high-stakes environment of the hospital, the tension between them begins to shift. 

However, as their relationship intensifies, doubts begin to creep in, threatening to unravel the fragile tapestry they've woven together. They are faced with a critical decision: will they take the leap of faith to embrace love, risk everything they have worked for, or will they retreat into the safety of their separate worlds?

The stakes have never been higher, and the path ahead is fraught with uncertainty.

His Heart, Mine by venuserve
44 parts Complete
She swears she hates him. He's convinced he hates her more. But when secrets, lies, and late-night whispers begin to blur the line between enemies and something they wouldn't even consider, neither of them is ready for what's coming. *** Aliana is loud, impulsive, and dangerously unpredictable. She lies when she's scared, smiles when she's breaking, and keeps everyone away with her endless sarcasm and sharp tongue. She doesn't need anyone. Especially not him. Ali is silent storms and cold stares. The boy with the bad reputation, a past no one talks about, and a temper that makes people flinch. He wants nothing to do with drama, especially when it wears red lipstick and calls him names. They can't stand each other. So why do they keep ending up alone in the same room? Why does every fight feel like foreplay? And why does hating him hurt more than it should? ~~~~~~ He kisses me, again and again, raw and consuming, and then pulls away; I can feel his green eyes piercing my soul. "What you told me last time, say it again," he whimpers breathlessly. "What?" I manage to ask, confused, and reel him in again for another kiss. He pulls back again, his breath hot against my skin. "That you hate me, tell me that you hate me." "I hate you," I tell him almost instantly, the lie burning on my tongue. He kisses me harder and more hungrily, and the words slip out again from my tongue: "I hate you. I hate you. I hate you." His murmurs deepen into groans, and at this exact moment, I ask myself how I'm still standing, still breathing, still present. ~~~~~~

Highest ranking: #1 in Short Story *Rewriting and Editing on hold* It was a race to leave behind her toxic past, the past that demolished her image, her family, and her sanity. Moving and starting fresh was Leila's number one priority. She desperately sought to avoid the people that constantly reminded her that she was worthless, but never had she thought she would meet someone who made her feel things that she thought she would never experience. . . Extreme anger. After the night that two lives were taken right before her eyes, one of her brother and the other of a little girl, nothing for her has been the same. Being neglected by her own parents and being shoved to the side by friends, falling into depression and self-harm had forced the once extrovert into a dark abyss who chose to finish college in silence. However, after an unfortunate mishap on her first day of school, Leila is stuck sharing a dorm room with no other than Professor Kingston. To Leila, Blake Kingston was nothing but a narcissistic, intellectual spoiled brat who sought to make her life a living hell. However, beneath the surface Blake was more than that, he was a damaged little boy who moved away to escape his troubled past. He never planned to meet a young, stubborn woman such as Leila Hart, who barged into his life with no warning. He never planned to let her see right through his cold and distant facade. For Blake Kingston was the most caring and loving person anyone has met, and Leila Hart knows an empath when she sees one. Little did they know they were both two broken souls who not only needed healing from themselves but from one another. Little did they know they were going to be ROOMMATES. What happens when these two collide? Fireworks and lethal wounds.

Amelia Carter is a bright and ambitious university student, eager to excel in her computer science program. When she enrolls in Professor Liam Grayson's class, she's immediately struck by his charisma and brilliance. Liam, a well-respected figure on campus, appears to be the ideal mentor-intelligent, composed, and approachable. But beneath his polished exterior lies a dangerous obsession. Liam isn't like other professors. He has a secret-he's drawn to certain women, women who fit a particular profile, and he meticulously orchestrates ways to weave himself into their lives. Amelia, with her sharp mind and quiet charm, becomes his latest fixation. He begins to study her every move, uncovering her secrets and vulnerabilities, all while maintaining the façade of the perfect professor. As Amelia starts to notice odd coincidences-bumping into Liam in unexpected places, receiving anonymous emails with details only someone close to her would know-she dismisses them as her imagination running wild. But when the lines between admiration and obsession blur, she finds herself trapped in a twisted game she never agreed to play. In a world where trust is fragile and danger lurks in plain sight, Amelia must navigate a deadly web of manipulation and deceit. Will she uncover the truth before Liam's obsession spirals out of control, or will she become another pawn in The Stalker's Game? **Please remember to READ, COMMENT and VOTE.
