They were toxic from the start. And some addictions? You never shake.
Nova Cross has always been a storm - punk, sharp-tongued, all dark eyeliner and sharper edges. Rhett? He was the gasoline to her fire - bitter, Inconsistent, and born to self-destruct. Their love story was never soft. It was built on spite, bruised egos, and dangerous nights tangled in each other's beds.
But now? It's over.
At least, it should be.
Nova's done playing games - cutting Rhett out, reclaiming her life one messy, rebellious night at a time. But Rhett? He doesn't let go easy. With every whispered lie, every dirty scheme, he pulls her right back into the chaos - promising everything she swore she'd never want again.
And when lust and hate collide?
Someone always gets ruined.
Drugs. Betrayal. Late nights and even later regrets.
This isn't a love story.
It's a warning.

Addict In Black ✔
USER SERIES 1 Micah Rex: He's handsome, dangerous, reckless. An addict. When he walks into a room, people notice. People are scared of him, people don't look him in the eye. AJ Ferro: She's cute, nice respectful. A helper. When she walks in a room, people usually get flowers. People love her, people want to be her friend. Despite her cheery nature and soft words AJ has never had it easy when it came to addiction -or depression. Without his addiction, sadness and anger Micah doesn't know who he is -and he hates not knowing things. And, of all places, they meet at a rehab center. He looked at her and saw a peppy girl with no future. She looked at him and saw a troubled boy with a bad past. Micah wants to die, AJ wants him to live. It's only a matter of time before one of them breaks through or breaks the other. - I was 12 the first time I took a hit off a joint at a party, smoked a blunt by myself and bought a bong. I was 13 when I started drinking alcohol for fun. 14 the first time I took ecstasy at a college party I snuck into, the same age I lost my virginity. This was the first time I went to a mental institution because it's also the year I first tried to kill myself. 15 the first time I smoked meth, took a bump of cocaine, shot myself up with heroine. This was the first time I got sent to rehab, it didn't work and I came out worse. I was 16 when I tried to commit three times in the same year, the last time I got my heart to stop for 30 seconds. That year was also the first time I snorted Hydrocodone, getting me started in opiates, I experimented with Xanax and liked it. And I was a month from 17 when I got sober. - "Fuck you." I snap. "You already have." Micah bites out. "And I'm pretty fucking sure you liked it too, if your orgasms were anything to go by." - "I want-" Micah stopped, running his fingers through his hair. "Never mind what I want. What do you want?" His voice is quieter now, more gentle. "You."Concluida
Paddy the Baddy
At nineteen, Jossy was wild, magnetic, and haunted-fresh off heartbreak, untouchable to most. Paddy was cocky, hungry, and already chasing the rush of a fighting career that hadn't taken off yet. They met in a sweaty basement gym in Liverpool-he was training, she was tagging along with a friend-and from the moment their eyes locked, it was chaos. They weren't ready for love, but they dove in headfirst. What started as late-night texts and shared cigarettes turned into whirlwind weekends, explosive arguments, stolen kisses, and an obsession that neither could shake. They were each other's escape and undoing all at once-two kids trying to save each other without knowing how to save themselves. But love isn't always enough. Especially not when Paddy starts getting attention in the cage-and from girls who don't come with emotional walls and sharp tongues. Not when Jossy starts pushing him away before he can leave on his own. They cheat, lie, make up, and break all over again-because every time they try to walk away, the pull is magnetic. Toxic, but magnetic. When We Were Fire is the story of how it all began-the beautiful, brutal love that nearly burned them both to ash. It's the heartbreak that shaped everything. The beginning of them.Concluida

Tough Love (Completed)
"Will be there in 20?" The message from Dean reads.

I cleaned up, battled withdrawals and even improved my grades. One text from him and I am snorting coke. Why do I do this to myself? Why do I let Dean treat me like trash?

What It Could Have Been
I've been waiting for this moment for over a year now. Hoping, dreaming, holding onto the picture in my mind what life could be like. I always thought this would never come. Thinking it's impossible for me to have a new start. Go to a new place, see new faces, meet new people. It always felt like walking through a desert with a map drawn in water. But even then, I never let go of my dream. I would close my eyes and imagine everything. How different I would feel waking up in the morning, how light my chest would feel, how more confident and comfortable I would feel. I was kind of writing my own little story in my head. And now, I'm just one zip of my suitcase away and my story will be coming to life. ------------------------------- Venus Jennings didn't just leave Harbor Ridge, she escaped it.
