Lines We Cross (WLW)

Isadora Vale has mastered the art of invisibility.
Quiet, brilliant, and painfully shy, she keeps her head down, her grades up, and her heart locked away. It's easier not to be seen when being seen only makes you a target.

Hannah Price, Isadora's bully, makes sure of that. Sharp-tongued, beautiful, and cruel in a way that keeps her at the top of the social food chain, Hannah knows exactly how to turn Isadora's softness into a weapon against her. Notes slipped into lockers. Whispers in crowded hallways. A thousand tiny cuts that sting worse than any bruise.

But lines don't stay neat forever.
When this cruel game pushes them into each other's orbit, the walls between them begin to blur. The girl who was once only Hannah-the-bully starts to look startlingly human - and Isadora can't ignore the cracks in her armor.

What begins with sharp edges and unspoken apologies slowly twists into tension neither of them expected. And somewhere between stolen glances, crossed lines, and words that wound as much as they heal, Isadora has to decide: can you ever trust the hands that hurt you?

A slow-burn wlw enemies-to-lovers story about cruelty, courage, and the messy, dangerous beauty of crossing the line.
