_________
Avery Austin and Nahomi Reyes-two of the most popular girls at Westbridge Academy, known just as much for their rivalry as for their reputations. For years, they've been locked in a constant battle, always trying to outshine the other.
But lately, something feels different. Their arguments linger, their glances hold too much weight, and the fire between them no longer feels like pure hatred.
Is it love, or just another game they refuse to lose?
_________________________________________
AVERY
Being the queen of Westbridge Academy comes with expectations-perfect grades, perfect reputation, and the perfect ability to never let anyone see me crack. And for the past few years, I've managed to keep it that way. Except when it comes to Nahomi Reyes.
We've been rivals since the moment we met. Every competition, every top mark, every whispered rumor-it's always us, standing on opposite sides. She's the only person who can get under my skin without even trying.
But lately, something's changed. Our arguments last a little too long. Her smirks feel a little too knowing. And when she looks at me, really looks at me, I swear my heart forgets how to beat.
I hate her. I really do. So why does it feel like I don't?
---
NAHOMI
Avery Austin walks around Westbridge like she owns it-polished, untouchable, always one step ahead. Too bad I've spent years proving that she isn't.
Our rivalry is practically school legend. Sharp words, stolen victories, endless battles of who can come out on top. But lately, something's been... off. The way she holds my gaze a second too long. The way my stomach twists when she says my name.
I tell myself it's nothing. Just another game to win. But deep down, I know I'm lying to myself.

Life's Unexpected Turn
When the person you love becomes the one you fear most, survival becomes the only thing that matters. Parker Avery is a creative teacher and talented artist trying to rebuild her life after escaping a past filled with lies, betrayal, and unimaginable abuse. Moving to a new city offers her a chance to breathe again, to rediscover who she is beyond the scars she carries. Bailey Adams is a kindhearted college student who once believed she had the perfect life. But the woman she fell in love with has slowly become someone cruel and dangerous. Trapped in a relationship built on manipulation, fear, and violence, Bailey finds herself losing the person she used to be. When Parker and Bailey's lives unexpectedly cross, neither of them are ready to trust again. Both carry wounds that run deeper than anyone can see, and both fear that happiness may simply be something meant for other people. Yet sometimes healing begins in the most unexpected ways. The question is whether these two broken souls will find the strength to face their pasts and open their hearts... or if the damage done to them will keep them apart forever. _____________________________________________ Please note that the imagery used in my chapters are not 100% mine.

The Dark Side of Innocence
Started: 11/6/2020 Completed: 12/26/2020 "I hope you remember what I said, Atlas," he said. He went back to his firm tone of voice now that we were alone. He glanced up at me as he packed three pairs of jeans into the bag. I was too busy trying to figure out how the hell I had three brothers who suddenly wanted custody of me after all these years of me being in foster care that I didn't even remember what Mr. Harris had told me last night, but it clicked. He had told me those things because he knew that I was leaving him today. "You will never be loved by them if they find out what you are, what you've done. And if they do find out, I'm sure they'll send you right back here to me where you belong," he said calmly as he placed the rest of my turtlenecks next to the jeans and lastly put in a coat. He zipped the bag that he had apparently finished packing for me and I looked around the room. "Let's go," he said firmly holding the bag in his hand as he walked out of my room. I didn't know if I should be happy or scared to be leaving Mr. Harris. I never imagined that I would be leaving him. Ever. He had told me last year on my birthday that he was going to marry me when I turned 18 and aged out of the system. *** For Atlas Bishop, moving in with three older brothers she never knew she had meant a chance at freedom she believed she didn't deserve.

"Wanted to be bold." I blush while I avoid eye contact. "Devin needed to borrow clothes for gym." I stare at my bare legs. "I should've told her no." He shrugs, biting into his sub. "Not a fan of exposing the body." I nibble on my burrito. "I just don't want anyone to get the wrong idea." I tuck my hair behind my ear. "That you're easy." My face reddens as I look at him in the corner of my eyes. After a few moments, I nod. He sighs. "The only thing that makes a girl easy is if she lets every and any guy inside." He runs his fingers through his hair. "Clothes or attitude has nothing to do with it." I trace a circle on my thigh. "And a guy that believes otherwise is either a dick or a rapist." I smile. "Avery." "Ava." "Your brain works in wonderful ways." I get more comfortable and lean on his shoulder. "So you've said." I giggle.
