Taming Dylan Winthrop
“Say it.”The hockey locker room fell silent. Blood dripped from Dylan Winthrop’s knuckles as he stared at me after beating a guy up for touching me.
I should’ve been scared,Instead, I was angry.
“You’re insane,” I snapped.Dylan stepped closer, his gaze dark and unreadable.
“Maybe,” he said quietly.
“But he should’ve known better..... I'm the only one allowed to bully you”
The problem with Dylan Winthrop?He hated me.At least, that’s what everyone at Blackwood Academy believed.
When Riley Carter transfers to Blackwood Academy on a scholarship, she becomes the favorite target of the school’s golden boy. Dylan Winthrop is rich, arrogant, feared, and completely untouchable.
From cruel pranks to vicious rumors, Dylan makes Riley’s life miserable but unlike everyone else, Riley refuses to bow to him and that only seems to make him more obsessed.What starts as hatred soon turns into something dangerous, messy, and impossible to ignore.

Chapter: An enemy already VANESSA’S POINT OF VIEW“How dare she?!”My voice echoed across the rooftop as I spun around furiously, gripping the metal railing so tightly my nails nearly snapped.“That disgusting poor girl actually touched me!”Chloe groaned dramatically from where she sat on one of the benches.“Oh my God, Vanessa, enough already. At this point your lungs are literally going to collapse.”Shelly rolled her eyes while fixing her ponytail.“And your voice too,” she added. “Remember you have the regional singing competition next month? Unless you want your voice cracking in front of judges.”I scoffed loudly.“Please don’t even mention that stupid competition right now.”My blood was still boiling from what happened earlier,The nerve,The absolute nerve.That scholarship girl had grabbed my wrist in front of everyone.......Everyone. Everyone had literally recorded it and by now the entire school had probably already seen the videos.Just imagining,it made my stomach twist angrily.Vanessa Hale

Chapter: I dare you RIELE’S POINT OF VIEW After Dylan walked away, I just stood there for a few seconds, completely frozen. My heart was still pounding painfully against my chest while laughter and whispers echoed around me. Students continued staring openly as if I was some kind of entertainment for the day.“Poor scholarship girl.”“She’s already getting destroyed on her first day.”“Did you see the way Dylan looked at her?”I swallowed hard and quickly bent down, stuffing the rest of my books back into my arms while trying to ignore the burning humiliation crawling across my skin. This was a disaster......An actual disaster and school had barely started.I exhaled shakily before forcing myself to move. Slowly, I walked back toward the classroom while people continued staring and whispering behind my back. The second I entered the room again, conversations lowered slightly.Great,even better.I quietly walked back to my seat beside Dylan’s empty chair and sat down carefully before placing m

Chapter: Weldone RIELE’S POINT OF VIEW Pain shot through my knees instantly as the heavy textbooks slipped from my arms and scattered across the hallway. Papers flew everywhere while my brand-new school map slid embarrassingly across the polished floor.Gasps echoed around me.“Oh my God…”“She bumped into him.”“No way.”Heat rushed to my face immediately.Perfect........Absolutely perfect. My first ten minutes at Blackwood Academy and I was already humiliating myself in front of half the school.I quickly pushed my hair away from my face and reached for my books, my fingers trembling slightly from embarrassment. Before I could gather everything properly, polished black shoes stopped directly in front of me.The hallway suddenly felt too quiet....My stomach twisted nervously and slowly, I looked up and immediately wished I hadn’t. This tall, handsome guy was glaring hard at me and I swear he looked really familiar, And then it clicked.....Dylan Winthrop,the girls my sisters wouldn't s

Chapter: crashed RIELE’S POINT OF VIEW“Call me immediately if anything happens,” Mom said for what felt like the hundredth time that morning as she pulled the car over in front of Blackwood Academy.“I will, Mom,” I laughed softly while unbuckling my seatbelt.From the backseat, Jane suddenly grabbed my arm dramatically.“And if you see Dylan Winthrop........”“Oh my God,” I groaned instantly.“Please marry him for the family’s financial stability,” Jessie finished seriously and I stared at both of them in disbelief.“You two are actually insane.”They burst into laughter while Mom shook her head tiredly.“Ignore them,” she muttered before turning toward me again, her expression softening immediately. “You’re going to do amazing today, honey.”The nervous feeling in my stomach returned instantly.“Hopefully,” I mumbled.Mom reached over and squeezed my hand gently.“You earned your place here, Riele. Don’t let anybody make you feel differently.”I nodded slowly before stepping out of the car.C

Chapter: welcome our guestXENA'S POINT OF VIEWThe boy came at me with the kind of confidence that usually got people killed.Sweat glistened across his forehead as he circled me inside the training ring, his fists raised and his breathing controlled. Around us, dozens of gangsters had paused their own activities to watch the match unfold. Some leaned against the steel cages surrounding the arena while others sat atop nearby benches, shouting wagers and insults at the fighters below.The underground training facility was loud, crowded, and smelled faintly of sweat, metal, and blood. Exactly the way I liked it.A smirk tugged at my lips as I watched my opponent carefully. He was bigger than me, stronger too. At least physically.Unfortunately for him, strength had never won fights. Experience did. Cruelty did.The willingness to break bones without hesitation did, and in all three categories, I was miles ahead.The boy lunged forward suddenly, throwing a punch aimed directly at my jaw.I tilted my head slightly

Chapter: waiting ALESSIA’S POINT OF VIEW“Please… just let me go home.” I said immediately she said that sentence,my voice cracked badly by the time the words left my mouth. The elderly woman standing near the door didn’t react.Neither did the two younger women beside her.All three of them simply stared at me in silence.Cold and expressionless.Like they had heard those exact same words too many times before.Fear crawled slowly up my spine.“Who are you people?” I whispered, backing away from them instinctively. “Where am I? Where’s my father?”Nothing.Not even a blink.The silence inside the room felt wrong. Heavy and Suffocating.I swallowed hard and glanced toward the door behind them.Still locked.Panic began clawing violently at my chest again.“I need to go home,” I said louder this time. “My brother is alone please”“Take off your clothes.”The words cut through the room again that my entire body froze.I stared at the elderly woman in disbelief.“What?”Her expression remained calm.

Chapter: Dark grin #BLOODSHOT EMPIRE#“I... I’m sorry, Boss! I swear I don’t know what came over me! I was going to pay you back... just give me a month more, I promise I’ll make it right. Please, have mercy on me!”The desperate man’s voice cracked violently as he collapsed onto his knees in the center of the underground hall, blood dripping steadily from his split lip onto the polished black marble floor beneath him.“Mercy?”Romeo Romano rose slowly from his chair.The movement alone was enough to make the entire room tense.“Mercy?” he repeated darkly as he stalked toward the trembling man. “You think you deserve mercy after what you’ve done?”The man shook uncontrollably.“Boss please.......”“You asked for money,” Romeo continued coldly, circling him like a predator. “And we gave it to you. We gave you time. We gave you trust.” His expression darkened dangerously. “Then you ran.”The man began sobbing.“I panicked.... ..”“Where exactly did you think you were going to hide?” Romeo asked soft

Chapter: Take off your clothes#BLOODSHOT EMPIRE# ALESSIA’S POINT OF VIEW Pain.That was the first thing I felt when consciousness finally dragged me awake. A sharp ache pulsed violently through my skull, spreading behind my eyes until even breathing felt exhausting. My body felt sore, heavy, almost numb, like I had been thrown against concrete repeatedly and left there to rot. A weak groan escaped my lips and my eyelids fluttered open slowly.......The ceiling above me was white and I frowned faintly. For several disoriented seconds, I simply stared upward, my blurry vision struggling to focus properly. Something about the ceiling felt wrong.Too clean......Too expensive. My heart slowed slightly as confusion settled inside me,This wasn’t my ceiling.Our apartment ceiling was cracked near the fan. Water stains spread along one side from last year’s rainstorm. I knew every inch of it because I spent countless nights staring at it whenever stress refused to let me sleep. But this....This ceiling belonged t

Chapter: Last ordinary day ALESSIA’S POINT OF VIEWThe hallway outside our apartment felt wrong.Too quiet unlike other days. I slowed my steps instinctively, tightening my grip around the small hospital bag hanging from my shoulder as unease curled slowly in my stomach. The fluorescent light above flickered weakly, casting pale shadows across the narrow corridor, and suddenly the exhaustion weighing on my body didn’t matter anymore. Maybe it was because I had spent the last six hours at the hospital after Ethan collapsed from a severe asthma attack or maybe it was because I hadn’t slept properly in days. The front door to our apartment was slightly open and I froze,my heart skipped once...then twice.The door was never left open.....Never. I made sure I locked it before I left the house earlier today. A strange chill crept down my spine as I stared at the small gap between the door and the frame. Darkness waited quietly beyond it.For one second, I considered turning around,calling the police
