'Look at me, Celeste,' he gently lifts her chin up with the tips of his slender fingers. 'I'm right here, okay?'
***
When Celestine Vora enrols at the elite Marion University to study medicine, the last person she expected to come face to face with was Adrian Schulz. Always condescending, never conceding. As her brother's best friend, he always caught glances of her in the background, the silent, quiet shadow of an adopted girl who never quite matched her brother's innate talent. One who always seemed to be a hindrance, his biggest competitor for valedictorian in high school. He was looking forward to a fresh start.

That is, until she shows up in front of his apartment in the middle of the night, and shakily utters the words, 'He's missing.'

When Rebecca moves back to her hometown for a friend's wedding, unfortunate circumstances put her near her ex-boyfriend, who left her completely broken. But her return seems to be more dangerous than she bargained for, and she searches for answers that were left unsaid. *** Becca Bradly didn't know what she was expecting when she was asked to be the maid-of-honor for her best friend's wedding. She lives in LA and has a decent life after successfully acting in a recently released movie. But she definitely didn't plan to go back to her hometown. The place she hasn't visited in five years. And the place where her broken heart still lays, shattered from her one and only ex-boyfriend. Michael Campbell was once someone people could rely on, but right before their senior graduation, that all changed, and when Becca finds herself returning home, she sees a completely different man in his place. Cold, detached and heartless, Becca finds herself constantly surrounded by the man she is supposed to hate most. And even though it's hard to ignore him when he's part of the wedding party, it's harder to do so when she realizes that the secrets he's been keeping all these years, start unravelling. The truth, however, was something she least expected, and now she has to fight for her life and the people she loves most.

Hate and desire have never been so dangerously entangled‼️❤️‍🔥 ~~~~~~ "Say it again," he commands breathlessly. "What?" I manage to ask, confused, before pulling him in for another kiss. He pulls back, his breath hot against my skin. "That you hate me, tell mr that you hate me." "I hate you," I say instantly, the lie burning my tongue. He kisses me harder, hungrier, and the words slip out again- "I hate you. I hate you. I hate you." His groans deepen, and at that moment, I wonder how I'm still standing. Still breathing. Still here. ~~~~~~ Aliana plans every detail of her life to perfection-because chaos has already cost her too much. A survivor of a chronic illness, an abusive brother, and an absent father, she swore never to let anything disrupt her life again. But nothing could have prepared her for his return. Ali has always lost the things that mattered most. Heartbreak. A broken family. The loss of a loved one. But this time, he's decided to reclaim what was his-even if it means facing the one person who refuses to forgive him.

In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain. Come on, he's got the scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, while I have just barely passed the entrance examination after long years of struggle during high school. How could a guy who worked that hard and deserves nothing more but adoration be labeled as a bad boy? Yeah, the answer is simple. The moment we lock eyes, I realize something as I stare into those piercing, amber eyes. He's not every girl's dream. He's every girl's nightmare. In my case, MY nightmare. Calm down, heart.

You First by AmbieMarie0x
21 parts Complete
"You First" - A Story of Love, Longing, and the One You Can't Let Go For years, Celeste Lancaster and Adrian Reyes have been best friends-inseparable, untouchable, and always on each other's side. Late-night drives, whispered confessions, and stolen moments define their friendship, but nothing ever crosses the line. At least, not out loud. But when Celeste falls for Nico-the charming, toxic boy Adrian has always hated-he's forced to watch her fall for someone who doesn't deserve her. And when Nico inevitably breaks her heart, it's Adrian who's there to pick up the pieces. That's when everything changes. Celeste starts noticing the way Adrian looks at her-the way he always has. The tension in their stolen glances, the hesitation in his touches, the moments where they almost kiss, but don't. Because Adrian won't cross that line. Not when she still sees him as just a friend. Not when she might still love someone else. Not when he's terrified of losing her. But feelings don't stay buried forever. And when jealousy, heartbreak, and longing push them closer than ever, Celeste and Adrian are left with only two choices: risk everything... or lose each other forever. A slow-burn, friends-to-lovers romance about missed chances, undeniable tension, and realizing the one you've always needed has been right beside you all along.

Normal? What was normal even Adrian? High school is the time to take it easy before life really hits. Or that's the theory... If he were human. Not only does he have to deal with being the successor of his family's pack, but he's also got to search for his very own soul mate. If that wasn't tough, apparently there's been a series of disappearances that's forcing them to take action. Moving their entire community was one thing, but meeting Aria Kham was another. Intelligent, sassy, and a little bit self-loathing - what's a guy gotta do to make sure she doesn't hate him? And as much as he wants her to be part of his life, what's the price to pay if he tells her?

Ollie, her newly made friend. Jenna the delirious bitch. Dylan the sweet boy stained by Jenna's bad reputation. And James the mysterious hot guy. She gets caught up in going to parties with them, struggles with anxiety, her dark past and her mixed feelings about James, who is one minute flirty and hot and the next mean and dangerous. She could never fall for the the resident bad boy that lives with her , would she? I glance down at her peaceful face, brushing a stray stand of hair out of her face, while the movie's soft soundtrack fills the room. She looks so beautiful like this-calm, safe, trusting me completely. "What are you doing to me Dais?" I whisper, my voice barely above a breath. "I really like you...but have no idea how to tell you." She stirs slightly beneath me, but she doesn't wake up. I freeze for a second, wondering if she heard me, but when she settles back down, I let out a quiet sigh of relief. She didn't hear. Or at least, she won't remember.
