A poor girl in a rich world. A forbidden love worth risking everything.
-------
I was nobody. Just a diner waitress struggling to raise my little brother.
Until a man in a black suit walked in and told me the truth:
I'm the daughter of one of the richest men in the city.
Now I live in a mansion I don't belong in, surrounded by whispers, enemies, and secrets. My new classmates call me a fraud. My father barely looks at me.
And then there's him.
Adrian Vale. My brother's best friend. The arrogant heir who can ruin me with a single word. He swears he hates me-yet he's always there when I fall.
But the deeper I dig into my mother's death, the more dangerous this world becomes. And the closer I get to Adrian, the harder it is to stay away.
Because if loving him is forbidden...
then why does it feel like my only chance at surviving?
--------
Seventeen-year-old Lena Cruz has spent her life in the shadows-working nights at a diner, caring for her younger brother, and keeping a low profile in their small town. But when a mysterious black car shows up outside her school, she learns the truth:
She is the illegitimate daughter of one of the wealthiest families in the city.
To protect her, she's swept away into a new life of penthouses, private schools, and luxury she never asked for. But being the new girl at her elite prep school paints a giant target on her back.
And then there's Adrian Vale-the infuriatingly gorgeous heir to the empire who hates her guts. He's her half-brother's best friend... and sworn to protect her.

DANGEROUS TERRITORY
"I want you so much it's driving me insane," he said quietly, his voice rougher now, stripped of control. "Every time you walk into a room, I feel it. Every time you look at me with those eyes..." His jaw tightened. "You have no idea how badly I want to lose control with you." A shiver ran down my spine. "Then why are you fighting it?" I asked softly, stepping closer. He stepped back immediately, as if my presence burned him. "You don't understand," he muttered. "I understand enough," I said, my voice shaking slightly. "You want me. I want you. So what's the problem?" His dark gaze snapped to mine. For a moment, something dangerous flickered in his eyes, something raw and almost frightening. "The problem," he said slowly, "is that men like me ruin women like you." The words hung heavy in the air. I frowned. "You don't get to decide that." He laughed once, but there was no humor in it. "If you knew the things I've done... the things I'm capable of..." He ran a hand through his hair in frustration. "You wouldn't be standing this close to me." "I'm still here," I said quietly. That seemed to affect him more than anything else I'd said. His eyes softened for the briefest second before the wall came back up. "That's exactly the problem." Silence fell between us. Thick. Heavy. Electric. Finally, he turned away from me as if the sight of me physically hurt him. "I'm not the man for you, Jessica." My chest tightened painfully. "And you don't get to decide that either," I replied, my voice steadier than I felt. He didn't answer. He just walked away.Concluída

Notes between us 🎹📝
Backstory: Adrian Vale was born into wealth - the kind that comes with power, respect, and danger. The Vale name carries weight, tied to an empire built on generations of business...and the darker world beneath it. To outsiders, Adrian is everything they envy: charm, fortune, legacy. But behind the tailored suits and expensive watches is a man who wants none of it. Music is his only escape - the piano, the only place he can breathe. In the Vale household, though, passion isn't purpose. His father made that clear: a man's worth comes from numbers, not melodies. When his father dies, Adrian inherits everything he never wanted - the money, the power, the loneliness. Every smile feels fake. Every date, a transaction. So now he tests people, playing the part they expect: the rich bachelor who can buy anyone's affection. Most fall for it. Until Rowan. Rowan Hart grew up in a house that was always one paycheck away from falling apart.Her mother works double shifts, her sister juggles school, and Rowan takes care of her ailing grandfather. Writing was her escape - a way to make sense of the chaos. Then, one night, her words reached someone. One story went viral, and suddenly, Rowan Hart was a name people knew. But success didn't change her heart. She still lives in the same small house, still worries about bills and hospital visits. She's learned that love and honesty mean more than money ever could. When Adrian Vale walks into her life - charming, distant, and too polished to be real and she sees something beneath the surface. Loneliness. The same kind she's written about for years. And maybe, just maybe, the stories she writes aren't just meant to heal her anymore. Maybe what's she's been writing was manifesting him to her.
Heirs And Hunters
"Every step you take away from me only drives you closer to the brink of my madness. You belong to me, Winter. Any alternative reality or illusion you hope for- I will destroy them until your very existence is entwined with mine." -𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐞 Eighteen-year-old Winter has always been a quiet shadow, a shy spy avoiding the perils of the spotlight. But when she's tasked with stalking five powerful Heirs, her carefully crafted invisibility shatters. Her mission is clear: erase their scandals, track their every move, and never draw attention. Yet, when she crosses paths with Ivan Arcane-the ruthless heir to one of the world's most powerful empires-everything changes. At first, Ivan saw her as dull and dependent, an insignificant watcher in the crowd. A beautiful doll to be kept locked and safe somewhere- an innocence belonging nowhere near him or his world. But when she makes one fatal mistake, he uncovers the sharp, wild mind she's concealed beneath fragile masks of pink and purples. Now, Ivan is obsessed, determined to dismantle her defenses and claim her as his own. And In a world where power rules, Winter is no longer the Hunter in the game -she's Ivan's fixation, a prey to a predator and he'll stop at nothing to change the very narrative of the fairy tale so the villain gets the girl in the end.
