At 23, Joya Miller had built her own name despite her family's empire. Strong, independent, untouchable-until she found herself trapped in the same suffocating world as Alex Davis, 28, the man who embodied everything she despised.
It wasn't just the way he looked at her-like he owned the air she breathed. It wasn't the way his voice dripped with arrogance, laced with that maddening smirk. It wasn't even the way his presence set her on edge, like an electric storm waiting to break.
No, she hated him because every time they clashed, every time they exchanged sharp words and bitter glares, something inside her didn't just burn-it craved.
And that was dangerous.
So when he pinned her against the wall, their breaths tangled in the silence between them, she told herself she felt nothing. That the heat in her veins was anger, not attraction. That the way his fingers curled under her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze, didn't send a shiver down her spine.
"You can lie to yourself all you want,firefly" Alex murmured, his voice dark, teasing. "But we both know you feel this just as much as I do."
She should have slapped him. Should have shoved him away.
Instead, her breath hitched, her pulse betraying her.
Because the truth was, hate had never felt this intoxicating. And she wasn't sure if she wanted to escape it- or drown in it.
The Millers and the Davises had been at war for years. A quiet, dangerous war filled with power plays, sabotage, and whispered threats behind closed doors.
Joya Miller had grown up knowing one thing-never trust a Davis. And especially never trust Alex Davis.
But life had a cruel sense of humor.

Twisted Love
[Started Writing : 3rd August, 2023] "For fuck sake, leave me alone." I screamed out as tears commenced gathering in my eyes. He said nothing. He just sat there watching me lose my temper. "Answer me." I growled shooting daggers on his way with my eyes. "Be my girlfriend. You will get everything you lost." "I don't want to be." "You have no choice." Anastasia wants nothing but to get out of the hell hole called 'her life'. They say study hard and then you can earn money and have a good life. But despite having a degree in hands she was still jobless. When life was giving her bitter test then when a devil showed up at the door of her heart, dressed like an angel. The devil wants nothing but a favour from her while promising her everything she wants. Morally grey. That's the definition to construe Alex Vesper. Strict, rude, emotionless, focused and evil. He wants nothing but revenge from a certain someone who might have scratched his ego a little bit. And at that time Anastasia was the best option for him.![Forever Fighting | ✔️ | [previously Espionage: double-cross]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/266180136-256-k887286.jpg)
Forever Fighting | ✔️ | [previously Espionage: double-cross]
Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing.
