When Trey dares his boys to see how long it would take to get shy, book-smart Aven to "crack," they settle it the only way they know how-Rock, Paper, Scissors. Khalil "wins" the bet. Quiet, focused, and already tired of drama, he never planned to play along. But curiosity-and pressure-push him toward Aven, who's spent more time in her imagination than in real relationships.
What starts as a setup slowly becomes something tangled. Aven, used to being overlooked, can't believe someone like Khalil is paying attention to her. And Khalil? He's starting to see Aven as more than just a dare. But secrets have sharp edges, and when the truth comes out, someone's going to break-maybe for real.
A BET is a gripping story about choices, cruelty, and the messy line between a joke and a heart.

Cold Eyes
Her world had never been soft. She'd learned too quickly that people could love you one day and rip the ground out from under you the next. So she built herself out of armor: cool smirks, careless words, the lie that she didn't care. She convinced everyone around her that she was untouchable, that she didn't need anyone to stay. That way, if they left, it wouldn't matter. But the truth was, she longed for the chaos. She trusted it more than stability, because at least chaos was honest. At least when something was toxic, when it was tension-filled and dangerous, you knew exactly where you stood- you knew it could hurt you. What unsettled her more was the idea of something pure, something kind, because that was where betrayal liked to hide. He's cold. She's reckless. And somewhere between jealousy, secrets, and a Halloween Party that changes everything Athena learns that sometimes the scariest thing isn't being hated. It's being wanted. *** Writing for my bestfriend!
