Freya thought college was supposed to be a fresh start.
New campus. New friends. New life.
The only thing she didn't expect was being assigned the same dorm room as the one person she couldn't stand.
Malachi.
Her high school rival.
The boy who challenged her in every class, stole her spotlight whenever he could, and somehow always knew exactly how to get under her skin.
Now they're forced to share a tiny dorm room for an entire year.
Between late-night arguments, competitive study sessions, and constant bickering, Freya is counting down the days until she can escape him.
There's just one problem.
The more time Malachi spends with Freya, the harder it becomes to ignore the way his heart races whenever she's around.
And when other guys start showing interest in her, he realizes he's feeling something far more dangerous than rivalry.
Jealousy.
Meanwhile, Freya finds herself questioning whether she really hates him as much as she claims.
With MK and Kylie determined to play matchmaker and Malia, Josh, and Dara desperately trying to stop them before things get awkward, college life quickly turns into chaos.
Because sometimes the line between love and hate is thinner than anyone realizes.
And sometimes your biggest rival becomes the one person you can't imagine living without.

Freya and MK have always been a package deal. Not because they're the same, because they're not. MK is loud, protective, sarcastic, and the kind of brother who acts like nothing bothers him even when everything does. Freya is quieter, sharper than people expect, and used to living in the shadow of MK's huge personality. He's her brother, her built-in best friend, and the one person who has always made it clear that nobody messes with her. Especially not his best friend. Malachi has been in MK's life for years. Sleepovers, family dinners, late-night drives, stupid inside jokes, holidays where he basically becomes part of the furniture. He's not just MK's best friend anymore; he's practically family. Which is exactly why MK made one rule from the beginning. "Do not date my sister." At first, Malachi laughed it off. Freya rolled her eyes. MK acted like he was joking. But everyone knew he wasn't. Because MK knows Malachi better than anyone. He knows the flirty comments, the smirks, the reputation, the way Malachi can make someone feel like they're the only person in the room. And even though MK trusts him with almost everything, Freya is the one thing he refuses to risk. So the rule stays.Complete

Lies, Loves, and Everything In Between
Freya Skye and Malachi Barton have been inseparable since they were kids-late-night phone calls, shared secrets, and a bond that never really needed words. Somewhere along the way, everything changed. Now, in their junior year, they're still close... just not the way they used to be. Not when Freya is always glancing over her shoulder. Not when Malachi's smile never quite reaches his eyes anymore. Not when the people they're supposed to love are the ones slowly breaking them. Freya is stuck in a relationship that feels more like a cage than love. Malachi is fighting battles he never talks about. And everyone around them can see it-everyone except each other. But little things start to slip through. A flinch that shouldn't happen. A silence that says too much. A look that lingers just a second too long. And when the truth finally comes out-messy, painful, and impossible to ignore-it doesn't just break everything apart. It forces them back together. Because maybe they were never meant to be just friends. Maybe they were just waiting for the moment everything else fell away. But healing isn't easy. Trust isn't simple. And love... love doesn't always come at the right time. Especially when the people who hurt you the most are the ones who refuse to let you go.Complete
London
Freya never expected the *Descendants: Worlds Collide Tour to change her life the way it did. For six months, she travels the world with a close group of castmates-Malachi, MK, Kylie, and Malia-living in a fast-paced blur of rehearsals, performances, and backstage chaos. From the outside, it looks like a perfect, inseparable group. From Freya's perspective, everything feels simple at the time. She doesn't notice the quiet shifts happening beneath the surface or the changes in relationships she was never made aware of. Over the course of the tour, she develops feelings for Malachi-unspoken, undefined, and never confessed. Fans begin shipping Fralachi, turning their on-stage chemistry into edits and theories, but Freya never confirms anything and assumes it is just fandom imagination. After DZWCT ends, everything breaks apart in silence. Malachi suddenly cuts off communication with Freya without explanation, leaving her hurt and confused. Around the same time, hidden relationship shifts happen within that same circle-Kylie and Malachi briefly date during the tour, and later Malachi and Malia begin something after the tour ends, while Kylie steps away from both. Freya, left without closure, channels everything into music. Her song Stardust becomes the first public glimpse of her emotional world. Malachi reposts it without comment, but Freya chooses not to repost his support, marking the beginning of her emotional distance from him. That leads into her Stars Align Tour, where her music becomes deeply personal and reflective of unresolved hurt, anger, and confusion tied to Malachi's silence and disappearance from her life. Now, Freya is heading to New Zealand for Zombies 5. The returning cast includes MK, Sway, Julian, and Malachi, alongside a new cast entering the franchise for the first time.Complete
Unfriendly Takeover: The wedding
Last year was a chaotic blur of transatlantic flights, forced kisses, and realizing home isn't a place, it's a person with a very smug smirk. I'd traded my rainy London mornings for California sun and a a place at the marketing agency here. This year, I'm marrying the boy I once couldn't stand, and between balancing our careers and the absolute nightmare of guest lists, I have a feeling the real chaos is only just beginning. My chapter in LA was just starting.Complete

Thanks to this awesome girly @fralachi_lover for the story idea and designing the title cover for me which looks awesome Josh Colley has one rule for his best friend: Don't touch my sister. Malachi Barton has spent years pretending that rule doesn't destroy him. Because Freya Skye has always been the one person he could never stop wanting - no matter how hard he tried. Freya knows falling for her brother's best friend is a bad idea. She knows sneaking around could ruin everything. But it's hard to stay away from someone who looks at her like she's the only person in the room. Especially when the almost touches start becoming real ones. Especially when late-night conversations turn into secrets. Especially when one mistake changes everything. Now Josh is starting to notice the tension between them. The stolen glances. The unfinished sentences. The way Malachi would do anything for her. And if the truth comes out, they could lose more than just their friendship. Because the closer Freya and Malachi get to each other... the closer they get to destroying the one person standing between them.Complete
Crash into me
Freya Skye has her life under control. Good grades. Loyal friends. No unnecessary drama. And definitely no more complicated relationships. Malachi Barton is the exact opposite. He's sarcastic, reckless, and somehow always at the center of trouble. Most people assume he doesn't care about anything-especially not school, rules, or what anyone thinks of him. So when Freya and Malachi start getting thrown together more and more, it should be simple. Ignore each other. Avoid the tension. Pretend the spark between them isn't there. Except pretending gets harder when teasing turns into flirting... arguments turn into late-night conversations... and the line between enemies and something else starts disappearing faster than either of them expected. Their friends see it coming from a mile away. Freya refuses to admit it. Malachi pretends it doesn't matter. But when two people crash into each other this hard, walking away isn't exactly an option. And some feelings? They happen way too fast to stop.Complete
Burning out
Everyone thinks Freya is trouble. She skips class, smells like cigarettes, climbs out of bedroom windows after midnight, and never lets anyone close enough to ask why. Malachi certainly isn't planning on becoming her babysitter. He's already exhausted trying to keep his reckless little sister, Kylie, alive. When Kylie starts dragging Freya into every bad decision imaginable, Malachi decides he's done watching from the sidelines. He starts driving them places just so they don't walk home alone. He waits outside parties. He patches scraped knees. He takes cigarettes away. He argues. He lectures. He protects. But somewhere between late-night phone calls, panic attacks, and chasing Freya through rain-soaked streets... Protecting her stops feeling like a responsibility. It becomes an obsession. He can't sleep unless he knows she's home. He memorizes every scar on her hands. He notices when she skips meals. He starts carrying her favorite snacks in his truck "just in case." And before long, everyone notices the same thing- Malachi isn't just looking after Freya anymore. He's completely, hopelessly obsessed with keeping her safe. The problem? Freya has spent her entire life running from people who tried to control her. So what happens when the one person she'd trust with her life slowly becomes the one she can't imagine living without?Complete
Boy Next Door
Malachi and Freya have been neighbours for four years, and for just as long, Malachi has made it his mission to tease her every chance he gets. Freya acts like she can't stand him, rolling her eyes and firing back whenever he annoys her, but deep down, she's had a tiny crush on him since the day they met. Malachi has a reputation for being a player, always with a new girl every week, but Freya has always been different. He has a soft spot for her, even if he'd never admit it. What Freya doesn't know is that Malachi has liked her too, but instead of telling her, he hides it behind teasing, smirks, and pretending she doesn't mean as much to him as she really does.Complete
