When Love Wasn't in My Plan
She promised herself never to fall again-not after the cracks her family left behind and the walls she built to protect her heart. Love was messy, dangerous, and definitely not in her plan. But then came the senior who showered her with attention, making her believe she was seen at last... until she realized she was only chasing an illusion. Just when she thought she was done with love forever, an unexpected presence stepped quietly into her life-a high school senior who had been watching from afar, who reached out not with promises but with comfort. Slowly, her carefully written plan began to blur, and she was forced to face the one thing she feared most: that sometimes, love finds you when you least want it... and when you need it the most.
Drawn To Ruin
We met in thorns sharp enough to pierce me from the very start. His words cut deep, leaving marks I couldn't ignore, and his dark eyes with the shade of red I swore I'd never fall into. He was the worst, the last person I ever wanted to hold on to. And yet, I did Because no matter how hard I tried, destiny kept pulling us back together And no matter how many times his thorns drew blood, I realized I'd rather bleed holding his rose . . . than watch it fade from my hands Isn't that what love is? Bleeding for the rose, just to see it bloom?
Blood and Roses
Prologue - Blood and Roses The night I first cast a spell, the moon hung low - a silver coin tossed carelessly into a sky too dark to care. The air smelled of rain and rose petals, and my hands wouldn't stop trembling. I wasn't born a witch. I became one the moment I said his name over a candle flame. Elias. It slipped from my lips like a prayer, or maybe a curse. I didn't know the difference back then. All I knew was that he looked at me like I was invisible, and I was tired of being unseen. They say love spells are dangerous - that magic born of longing can twist into something darker. But I didn't listen. I was seventeen and stupid and aching for him. So I mixed rose thorns with a drop of my blood, whispered the words from a book that shouldn't have been in my hands, and hoped the universe would be kind. The universe wasn't. When the candle went out, the world changed - just a little. His eyes found mine the next morning, and for the first time, he smiled. But there was something behind that smile... something I didn't recognize. And as the roses in my window began to bloom redder than blood, I realized I hadn't asked for love. I'd called for something else entirely. ______________________
