Since she was born, Sadie Maybank felt inferior. The way people looked at her, the way her father threw her around like she was nothing, the way her brother treated her as if she were a mere inconvenience.
Everything always felt out of reach, as if her fingertips faded through family and reality like a cloud. She didn't belong. Never had. The world wasn't hers, she was just living in everyone's else's.
She had always been alone. Perched up on the swing-sets alone. Ate lunch during recess alone. Walked along the beach alone. Just always, awfully alone.
Until she wasn't. Until hope, care, family - one with no biological blood, just familiarity and the lingering feeling of safety that sat beneath her chest - clasped her hands together and made her feel like she belonged.
But even then, beneath the surface of false truth, biting secrets tended to leave marks.

Fragile Thrones |Rafe Cameron|
Yamileth Santos had always been told she was special. It wasn't whispered sweetly in her ear or etched into bedtime stories. No, her worth had been hammered into her like a jewel set into a crown-polished, flawless, and cold. Born into one of the wealthiest families in Outer Banks, Yamileth had learned early that power wasn't something given; it was something worn. Her father, a ruthless businessman, and her mother, a socialite who could dismantle anyone with a single arched brow, had raised her to be nothing less than perfect. By the time she was seventeen, she had mastered the art of being untouchable. Boys loved her, but she never let them close. Girls wanted to be her, but she kept them at arm's length. The only person who had ever seen cracks in her armor was her older brother, Mateo, but even he had left for college without looking back. Then, everything changed. That summer, the weight of her father's crown became unbearable. And that's when Yamileth finally noticed Rafe Cameron. They'd always run in the same circles-same parties, same people, same world. He was the guy with too much charm for his own good, always making a scene or pushing the limits of what even Kooks could get away with. She'd dismissed him for years as reckless and loud, more trouble than he was worth. But that summer, something shifted. Maybe it was the way he'd started showing up more often, his eyes lingering on her with a boldness no one else dared. Or maybe it was the fact that, for once, Yamileth felt a crack in her perfect, pristine life.Complete
JJ Maybank Endgame - He Fell First, She Fell Harder
Y/N Routledge. Sixteen. John B's little sister. He's been the overprotective type ever since your dad disappeared months ago-setting rules you never agreed to, and watching your every move like you'd vanish too. It's been just the two of you for a while now... well, and JJ Maybank. Seventeen, reckless, full of trouble and charm. He's always around-more than you'd like to admit. And sure, you both get along, but it's always been just friendship. Mostly. Probably. You're a Pogue through and through. Scraped knuckles, stolen boats, and not following the rules is your normal. Sarah Cameron is tolerable now that she's dating your brother, and surprisingly, she's proven herself more than once. But Kooks like Rafe and Topper? Let's just say if looks could kill, they'd be buried six feet under the Chateau. This summer feels... different. Maybe it's the pressure. Maybe it's the secrets. Or maybe it's the fake relationship you never expected to agree to. Rules were made. Lines were drawn. He's not supposed to fall. You swore you wouldn't either. But sometimes hearts don't follow rules-especially in the Outer Banks. **This story can also be found on my TikTok account as well with many others!!** TikTok: @obxstoriess_p4lComplete

Wrong Kind of Right - Rafe Cameron
Rafe Cameron was the last person she should have fallen for -her best friend's brother, a Kook with too many demons to count. He drank to forget, fought to feel, and spiraled until there was nothing left of him but the chaos he created. But with her, he was different. She was the only one who could quiet the storm in his head, the only thing that made him feel something real. She should have walked away. He should have let her go. Instead, they became each other's favorite sin -an addiction neither of them could escape. 𝓗𝓮 𝓱𝓾𝓻𝓽 𝓶𝓮 𝓫𝓾𝓽 𝓲𝓽 𝓯𝓮𝓵𝓽 𝓵𝓲𝓴𝓮 𝓽𝓻𝓾𝓮 𝓵𝓸𝓿𝓮~Complete
