He's cold, calculated, and doesn't tolerate defiance.
She's sarcastic, stubborn, and absolutely not sorry.

Lisa only wanted experience-not drama, and definitely not him.

But when she unknowingly insults the CEO of the biggest fashion house in Paris (twice)... her internship becomes war.

Adrien Camaro doesn't believe in distractions.

Especially not ones with quick comebacks, killer smirks, and no clue who she's messing with.

But the more she resists, the more he wants to ruin her... or claim her.

Enemies? Without question.
Tempted? Against all logic.
Addicted? Just wait.

This isn't a love story.
It's a power play.

And somewhere between hating, resisting, and pretending... the lines blur.

Silenced by falling_in_rain

Adrien Agreste is always silenced. Don't slouch, don't act out, don't talk back, don't disobey, don't do anything to make the Agreste brand (not name; never name) look bad. Never talk with your mouth full, never step to the right when you're meant to go left, never look up when you are not told to, never speak without permission. Adrien Agreste is always silenced. Gabriel Agreste, his father (not dad; never dad), has conditioned him to stay silent and sit on the back burner, while he takes everything by the reins. From his studies, to his internet access, to his social interactions-down to the very outfit he wears. He is controlling of his son's life, but his son is used to it. Because when you're Adrien Agreste, you learn to be silent. You learn to sit up straight, to act right, to comply without words, to obey, to be perfect (not good; never good). You learn to chew before even moving your lips and covering your mouth to do so, to follow your father step by step and never break from the routine, to look down and only look up if called, to speak when spoken to. Adrien Agreste has learned to live with being silenced. Adrien Agreste is always silent.

𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐓𝐘 || ✍︎︎ by _iinknpaper

𝐂𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐄 𝐒𝐎𝐋𝐀𝐂𝐄 built herself out of glass and fire, sharp enough to cut, bright enough to be seen. Once the head of a rising empire, she now wakes to find her name stripped from the company she created, her life reduced to contracts and control she never agreed to. But she doesn't break; she plots. Every breath becomes strategy, every silence a step toward taking back what's hers. The only problem is the man standing in her way, the same one she can't seem to stay away from. 𝐂𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐍 𝐀𝐋𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐈 learned early that love was a weapon and obedience the price of survival. Behind his charm lies temper, behind his control lies ruin. He's the son of a man who built kingdoms on blood, and he's spent his life trying not to become him. But when she enters his world, she threatens everything he thinks he understands about power, loyalty, and the quiet hunger he can't seem to kill. ꨄ -#1 in #billionare - 22/08/23 -#3 in #storytelling -14/11/23 -#1 in #girlboss - 06/11/23 -#1 in #stalker - 08/11/23 -#5 in #daddyissues - 21/02/24 -#5 in #arrangedmarriage - 04/07/24

Unprofessional (Under editing) by Nafthalim

Book #1 He's a hot, arrogant and a CEO with a jawline that could cut DIAMONDS!!💎 She's stunning, smart, and funny, but naive assistant. What happens when their feelings are exposed bare on a Silver Platter?

Just Following Orders by hopeless_romanticXD

He usually prefers his employees to be less...bubbly. Energetic. A little more like him, essentially. But there was something about her the moment she introduced herself. Maybe it was the way she looked at him, or the way she smiled at everyone in her line of sight, who knows. But, whatever the reason is, he hates it. He hates that he gave into that feeling when he met her. She manages to find her way into his mind 24/7, unlike any woman ever has. She doesn't think she's ever seen someone as angry at the world as him. He can be rude and he doesn't always think about other's feelings before he speaks. A scowl somehow is always set on his face, like he was born that way. For any other person, a man like that would make you want to simply ignore him. But not her. She has her heart set on making him smile. Even just a little. Maybe even a laugh. And she is not giving up any time soon. It's not hard to tell that two people with personalities like theirs can lead to a dangerous combination.

Be Creative by Starskulls

PLEASE DO NOT REPOST MY STORY ANYWHERE. THANK YOU. Lila succeeded in taking everything Marinette held dear to her. She finally saw the class's true colours and realises how they've been taking advantage of her with commissions and events. Adrien is no better, telling her to 'take the high road' and 'lies don't hurt anyone'. Enough is enough. With a little help, she finally decides to get even, by being just a little creative. THIS STORY HAS MENTIONS OF BULLYING AND HARASSMENT. NOT THE MAIN FOCUS OF THIS STORY BUT I AM MENTIONING IT ON OCCASION IN CHAPTERS. 1# LilaExposed 1# Plagg 1# RenaRouge 1# Lila 1# MDC 1# AlyaCesaire 1# MarinetteDupainCheng 1# AdrienAgreste 1# Jealous

She was always there by Delulu_Diariesss

She was always there... too bright, too loud, too in love. He never looked twice. Until he told his friends: "She's always there, I wish she'd disappear." So she simply did. Days later, she returned... unrecognizable. Cold. Confident. Distant. Not the girl who stared at him with heart shaped eyes. Now, she's his rival. His competition. The girl he can't stop noticing. It started with heartbreak. Became a slow-burn war. And it might just end in love. ----------- You got a notification. A message request from a random fan page. @SheWasAlwaysThere_Fans: "WE LOVE YOU TWO!! SHIPPPED SINCE CHAPTER 1 😭💘✨💍 #PowerCouple #PublishingEnemiesToLovers #LayGoToo" You laughed. Alex peeked over your shoulder. Alex: "You're famous." You (grinning): "So are you, loverboy."

Project You by angelicc_flowerss

Adrienne Lace's life was a mess. A big mess. A 22 year old college student who was not only financially struggling, she was emotionally struggling too, a girl with no friends other than her novels and thoughts which unfortunately did not make for good company. She had so much to pay for, always had so much to do, helping her mother, her grandmother and herself all at once. She was drowning, sinking so damn low, and she wasn't sure if she wanted to swim back up anymore. That is until she's paired up with her antithesis, Karsen Krist, for an assignment that will cost them most of their grade in their final year of college. Unlike Adrienne, Karsen was rich, happy, the college's star football player who as she spends more time with realizes is not as horrible as she thought he'd be, and actually, is just as human as she is. Except that he is much too talkative, too flirty, too smart, too sweet and unfortunately, a little too... desirable. But when you've been in a box so long, it becomes your new home, whether it's comfortable or not. Will he be able to get her out of that box? Or will all their potential end up going in vain? *** #1 in books #1 in art #1 in reversegrumpyxsunshine #1 in collegeromance #1 in player #1 in forcedproximity #1 in flirty #1 in grumpygirl #1 in project #1 in opposites #1 in growth

~Cold love~ by Marinettelover9000

"What's going on with you? You're never like this." Adrien looked up at her, hesitant to what he was about to say, "Can you keep a secret?" Marinette watched in horror as the blonde lifted up his shirt. What. The. Fuck. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A sad but cheerful Adrienette story. Be prepared for many plot twists, and many more surprises because I have a lot of things planned up my sleeves. Some smut in chapters, mostly sexual mentions, etc. There is abuse, verbal and physical violence, explicit language, and many more things. [Viewers discretion is advised] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (I do not own any of the miraculous characters as they belong to Zagtoon Animations, but please enjoy the story). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
