It is said,
"Two sharp swords can't be in one sheath."
But what happens when they do?
_________________⚔️
"I'm not the main character- I'm the side one living freely off the script. Every story needs a little chaos to stay interesting."
AYDEN ROSWELL- a storm wrapped in sunshine. Reckless, radiant, and unapologetically alive, she believes life is meant to be felt, not planned. With laughter always on her lips and loyalty stitched into her soul, Ayden thrives in chaos.
Until Northwood Academy.
Which demands three things she has never learned to obey- and has no intention of starting now.
Discipline.
Control.
Restrictions.
This prestigious high school- a place meant for fresh starts- introduced her to the one person who would become her favorite mistake.
No matter how hard she dodges him, fate- or some bored universe- keeps
shoving him right back in her way.
_________________☀️
"I didn't choose to be the benchmark - everyone just decided I had to be, so I made sure I deserved it."
Intelligent, demanding, and fiercely competitive- AREG CORDERO.
An introverted grump wrapped in a silent 'don't test me' aura, his reputation built on distance and discipline. He keeps his circle small and his world smaller, structured exactly the way he likes it.
Predictable.
Controlled.
Planned.
Until her.
Her arrival cracks the system he spent years perfecting, pulling him into emotions he never planned for- and never wanted.
With every part of him, he wants her gone - and just as badly, he wants to be the only one who stays.
__________________🌥️
Between crushing expectations, looming dreams, and the terror of failure, their animosity becomes their refuge... and their greatest threat.
Because the fire between them isn't just anger.
Not anymore.
"You hate me!"
"I wish I fucking did!"
Will they learn to move without destroying each other?
Or will pride slice deeper than feelings ever could?

Moonlight Kisses
"Why are you doing that!" she whisper-screams while her eyes flit to the other guys, who are now immersed in something else that isn't us. I kiss that spot again, making her whole body shiver. It's oddly entertaining to watch what my slightest movements do to her. Usually it takes a lot more for a girl to unravel this way, but her breath hitches each time I go to kiss her neck. I could only imagine what my hands could do to her body. "You still didn't answer my question," she huffs harshly. And still she hasn't pulled away from me. Had I been any stupider, I'd say Jordyn was actually enjoying herself. If she hates this so badly, why hasn't she asked me to stop? [] In August, Jordyn Reeve starts attending Crestview Prep and not long after strikes a deal with Beau Clemonte, an arrogant, rude boy who happens to be the thing that can give her what she wants: his best friend, Jake Amherst. Of course, everything worthwhile must come with a price. Despite her outright opinions, Jordyn makes a deal with the devil. Or at least that's what that's what she saw at first -- a coldhearted, stubborn asshole that cared even less than she did. Her only intention was to see this out to get the guy. However, it wasn't that simple for Beau. Cover created by: @meha-k Started October 2020 Completed January 2022Complete

"I think it's best we stay cordial while we're here. You know, avoid any awkwardness," I say, trying to sound casual. Jay leans against the doorframe, his eyes flickering with amusement as he watches me. "You want to be friends?" "No. I mean, not friends. Just civil," I answer, a little too quickly. "Okay. I can do civil," he says, his gaze never leaving mine like he is trying hard to read me. I look away, suddenly too exposed beneath his gaze. Damnit!This is going to be harder than I thought. - It was a moment. One that could have turned into something more.Until she walked away. Eight months later, Ira has to face him again. And this time, there's nowhere to run. Not for at least a week. After all, it's her best friend's wedding and he's invited too. So, she does what she's always done best-pretend. Pretend nothing happened. Pretend he didn't matter. Pretend her heart didn't skip a beat the second she saw him again. But Jay? He's not playing pretend. With that maddening smile and the kind of charm that should come with a warning, he's determined to remind her of everything she's tried to forget- even the years she's spent years mastering the art of detachment. He's the only one who's ever come close to reaching the version of her that she thought, she had buried long ago. And that's what makes him dangerous. Because she shouldn't return to who she was. She's ice. And he? He's the fire that never stopped burning. The real question is: Can she let his fire thaw the ice that's long been her shield?Complete

Two broken souls in the midst of a crazy world. Two souls running away from their past. There was no light at the end of the tunnel. The tunnel was cracking, slowly closing in. When these two connect, as if they were set on the same path, light creeps in through the cracks, and for or a moment, the tunnel seems to have a way out, but what if it collapses before they make it? - "You saved my life." The words come out as a whisper, I've been dying to say that. I thank god every day that he came into my life when he did. "Fuck Vivian, you don't know how much I needed you." I tear up just a little as he speaks, I don't know the last time I cried happy tears. I bring my hands up to cup his cheeks, resting my forehead against his. "No matter how much I push, I don't mean it. Please don't give up on me." My words seem to relieve him in some way as I feel his shoulders relax. "Even when I'm gone, I'll be by your side, forever." He brings his hand, sticking his pinky out. "pinky promise."I wrap mine around his, placing a kiss on his lips. Warning before you read!! This is my first book! This book will contain topics of SA, eating disorders, and mature content, if any of these things may bother you in anyway, please scroll! I hope when I finish this book I can public a clean version, with a different perspective leaving out these topics, but for now, this is how i've envisioned this story to go! Enjoy -Ash🌸

Stuck With You
What happens when two fiery souls meet? Rylee is reckless and careless. She does what she wants when she wants. And as a girl with no family, she is never reprimanded. Kason is a rogue and dangerous. He does what he wants when he wants. And since he is known as a troublemaker, he gets away with everything. The two meet one unlucky night when they're trapped in a warehouse together, and declare their hatred for each other soon after. But after that encounter they seem to constantly run into each other. What happens when two fiery souls meet? Dumb arguments, dangerous situations, rivalry, begrudging respect. And of course, an explosion. *Completed* ***** "Headlights suddenly came around the building in front of us. Before I could react, Kason pushed me down flat against the seat. His body pressed into mine as he hid us from the view of the headlights. It must be the security team leaving. My vision focused on his jaw line. I couldn't help it, it was right there. My body seemed to finally sense just what was happening. Heat rushed to my face as my heart picked up pace. I was hyper aware of every part of him that was over me. Why am I blushing like a middle schooler with a crush? Kason finally turned his head down to me and our eyes locked. He seemed to just realize how we were laying. "So... this is awkward." I breathed, trying to ignore the fact I could feel his heartbeat. Kason raised an eyebrow in amusement. "That's what you choose to say in this moment?" I raised my eyebrow as well. "Was I supposed to say something else?" He smirked. "Maybe."Complete
His Desired Possession
" Oh fuck!!" "Little one, I don't think it suits a baby to curse." " Hey!! Who are you calling little? I am a big girl. Can't you see?? " she hissed angrily, rubbing her knees. He chuckled and bent down to see her injury. " it's not that big. Stop crying like a baby." "Are you serious!! You..You are such a bad man I have ever met. Even my neighbour's son feels sad after hurting me. And you!! Huh!!" she said with an angry pout. He chuckled and stood up. He gave his hand to her to get up but she slapped his hand and stood up herself whining in pain. --------------------------------------------------- "Stop coming near me, or, or," she stuttered, trying to break free from his cage-like hold. "Or what, little one?" he whispered hoarsely in her ear. She didn't like it - that was what her mind was screaming. But she also knew it was a turn-on for her. "Just leave me, Mr. Knight," she tried to act bold, but all her words came out as a mere whisper. He smirked and moved closer, their bodies touching. She could feel his heavy bulge against her lower abdomen. She bit her lip. He moved in closer, and before she could speak, he claimed her lips, shocking her to the core. "Mine..." ----------------------------------------------------------- He is broken, she is his cure. He is alone, she has everyone. He is cold, she is on fire. She ain't any innocent, naive girl but a fiesty one. What will happen when they both meet after their first encounter??Complete
