When she agrees to tutor the university's star basketball player for forty dollars an hour, she's only thinking about one thing-the money. What she doesn't expect is Kenji Nakamura: 6'5" of tattoos, silence, and ego wrapped in a designer hoodie. He's used to girls falling at his feet. She charges him a late fee. He wants her number. She Venmo requests him instead. He's never had to work for anyone's attention. She's never had time to give it. Kenji doesn't do feelings. He does highlights, endorsements, and whatever it takes to make it to the NBA. But Destiny Morrison-with her sharp tongue, her bonnets, and her complete lack of interest in his fame-is the first person who's ever looked at him and seen just... a guy. And that terrifies him.

    --- Chained Desires She never believed in love - not the kind that stayed, not the kind that healed. To her, life was a game of hearts, and she always knew how to win. But then he came - quiet, confident, and impossibly sure of himself. The kind of man who didn't chase, yet somehow made her want to be caught. He wasn't looking for love either, but something about her drew him in - her fire, her laughter, her truths. She made him feel alive again, even as she drove him insane. What started as a daring attraction soon became something neither of them could control - a love so fierce it blurred the line between devotion and surrender. Now, bound by emotions they never meant to feel, they must decide if love can truly set them free... or if some desires are meant to keep us chained forever Ranking - #2nd place Nigerian fiction

    Der Unterricht war vorbei und alle anderen Schüler stürmten aus dem Klassenzimmer. Alle außer mir. Ich packte langsam meine Sachen zusammen, sogar meine Freundin war schon gegangen. Ich hatte gedacht, dass wir uns gut verstehen würden, aber in den letzten Monaten hatte sich alles verändert. Ich stand auf und ging mit meinen Matheblättern in der Hand nach vorne. Ich blickte auf, und warme, blau-graue Augen begegneten meinen. Langsam umspielte ein Lächeln seine Lippen. „Ähm, ich hab da eine Frage ...", sagte ich, so wie immer. Ich glaube, er wusste, was es wirklich bedeutete. „Natürlich. Wie kann ich dir helfen?" Ich trat einen Schritt näher, und das Einzige, worauf ich mich konzentrieren konnte, war, wie warm er war. Stell dir vor, du verliebst dich zum ersten Mal. Und dann ist es ausgerechnet dein Mathelehrer, der einfach ein bisschen zu nett zu dir war und dich immer wieder darüber nachdenken ließ, ob er vielleicht dasselbe empfand. Eine Menge Spannung, eine Menge Tränen und eine Menge wunderschöner Momente zwischen euch. Und alles begann mit einem kleinen: „Könntest du mir bei dieser Gleichung helfen?" Ein Roman über die erste Liebe, darüber, sich in jemanden zu verlieben, in den man sich niemals hätte verlieben sollen - und über das Gefühl, zum ersten Mal wirklich für jemanden zu empfinden.

    Amara spent years learning how to be alone, heal from the relationships that hurt her, and grow closer to God. She isn't looking for anyone to save her. She simply wants a love that is honest, peaceful, and centered on something greater than feelings. Jahari is almost the opposite. Confident on the outside but carrying wounds he rarely talks about, he is trying to build a future while struggling with family rejection, old habits, and a life that doesn't quite match the person he wants to become. When their paths unexpectedly cross, neither of them expects friendship to turn into something deeper. But falling in love isn't always simple. Between an unfinished past, jealousy, family pressure, insecurity, financial struggles, marriage, and dreams that seem impossible, Amara and Jahari will have to learn that love isn't about finding perfect people. It's about two imperfect people choosing to grow, forgive, communicate, and seek God through every season. Because sometimes the greatest love story isn't about two people finding each other. It's about two people finding their way to Christ-and discovering each other along the way. Co written with AI.

    Everyone at the company knows Emma Carter. Not because she's the smartest employee. Not because she's the most ambitious. She's famous for one thing: She's hopelessly obsessed with Adrian Mercer, the company's arrogant young heir. Everyone watched her chase him for over a year. He rejected her. She came back. He ignored her. She smiled. He treated her like she was invisible. She still showed up the next day. At first, everyone thought Emma was trying to marry into the Mercer family. Then they decided she was genuinely in love. Even Adrian believed it. What they don't know is that Emma isn't heartbroken. She's a professional. And Adrian isn't her only client. She's also devoted to a cold, untouchable CEO. A world-famous actor everyone secretly dreams about. A brilliant, sunshine-like pop star. A charming and calculating business tycoon. And a dark, obsessive genius painter. Six powerful men. Six completely different kinds of trouble. And Emma? She doesn't have time to fall in love. She's too busy getting paid. Because for Emma, affection is a service, devotion is a performance, and heartbreak is simply not included in the contract. Then one day, she's made enough money. So she quits. No dramatic goodbye. No tears. No begging. She simply takes her money, walks away, and moves on with her life. After all, the contract is over. The problem? The men don't seem to understand that. The girl who used to chase them is suddenly gone. And for the first time, they realize something terrifying- They were never the ones being played. They were the ones who fell first. And now, they're coming after her. Emma thought she was just doing her job. She never expected six men to turn her resignation into a full-blown war.

    Between Kano and Forever Safiya Bashir has always known what she wants. At twenty, with her final semester at university coming to an end, she's ready to turn the dream she's carried for years into something real: Studio 24, a creative space in Kano where people can come to make things, celebrate, laugh, and create memories of their own. Her father has given her the space. Now she has to prove she can make it work. With graduation approaching, an opening only weeks away, and everyone around her asking what comes next, Safiya is beginning to realize that knowing what you want isn't the same as knowing how to get there. Then there's Rayan. Once the older boy who spent far too much time getting on her nerves, Rayan is now twenty-three and running the architectural firm his father handed over to him. Architecture was never supposed to be his plan, but somewhere along the way, he discovered he loved it-and built a life around something he never expected to choose. Safiya doesn't know he's the architect behind Studio 24. Not until she walks into the first proper design meeting and finds him waiting for her. What begins as an unexpected reunion becomes a story of unfinished conversations, family chaos, old memories, new dreams, and two people trying to figure out what kind of future they actually want. Because sometimes growing up isn't about choosing between where you came from and where you're going. Sometimes, it's about discovering that home can be part of the future too. Between Kano and Forever is a story about love, family, friendship, ambition, and the beautiful uncertainty of becoming who you're meant to be.

    LET'S TALK ABOUT THE STORIES Writing doesn't end when I type The End. Sometimes, that's where the real conversation begins. This is a space for me to talk with my readers about my stories, characters, plot twists, relationships, writing process, inspirations, random ideas, and all the little things that happen behind the scenes. Have a theory? Drop it in the comments. Love a character? Tell me what makes them your favorite. Hate a character? Tell me exactly why. 😂 Confused about a decision I made in a story? Ask me. Want to know what inspired a particular character, scene, relationship, or storyline? Let's talk about it. Sometimes I'll bring you an idea before it's even become a story. Sometimes I'll ask what if? questions. Sometimes we'll discuss characters who haven't even made it onto the page yet. Not everything we discuss will become a book. Some things will be conversations between a writer and the people who read her work. SO, I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU. Comment on the chapter. Start a conversation. Share your theories. Tell me what you think is going to happen next. Question a character's choices. Tell me which relationship has you invested-or which one has you ready to throw the entire book across the room. 😂 Don't just read quietly. Talk to me. Your comments, theories, questions, and reactions are welcome here. Because I don't want Wattpad to be just where I publish my stories. I want it to be where we experience them together. So pull up a chair, bring your theories, and get comfortable. The stories are mine to write-but the conversations are ours. ❤️
