Possessive

Forbidden Love

Secret Love

Hate to Love

Two brothers. One house. A million ways for everything to go wrong. Khione Kay wanted one thing: a quiet sleepover at her best friend’s house. She didn't expect the shadows of the Graves estate to be so suffocating—or for him to be waiting in them. Noah Graves. Her best friend’s older brother. The boy who has been a thorn in her side since she was ten. He’s dangerous, arrogant, and famous for the rotating door of girls he brings home every night. Khione knows she should hate him—and for years, she succeeded. But hate and desire are two sides of the same coin, and one night of friction finally causes a spark. In a cold bathroom, with blood on her temple and a secret burning between them, the line is crossed. A single mistake changes the game, and now Khione is drowning in guilt. Just as the walls start closing in, Zion Graves—the kind, protective younger brother—steps in. He offers the safety Noah destroys, but his presence only makes the lie heavier. Caught between the brother who breaks her and the brother who wants to save her, Khione is playing a losing hand. How long can she keep the secret before the Graves brothers tear her world apart?

Chapter One
The living room was dark, lit on my the television. I was curled up on the sofa, blanket up to my chin, stuck in a midnight movie after Zion had fallen asleep.Gunshot.The sound, so loud in the house.Everything paused. The man on the screen froze, gun shaking, eyes wild and broken. The other guy was on the door, blood spreading quickly on the floor.The woman screamed.“Please—!”Another shot.Silence.The kind that presses against your ears until it hurts.Heyy!!!!I jolted, the tension snapping as the screen went black.“What the hell?!!” I turned sharply, a glare already forming—only to meet the last person I wanted to see.Noah.He was leaning lazily against the wall like he owned the place. Like he always did.“Maddie said it was too loud,” Noah drawled, his voice low, gravely hum that seemed to vibrate in the quiet room. “And what Maddie wants, Maddie gets.”I rolled my eyes so hard it actually hurt. Maddie. Last week it was Daphne, the week before that, a Chloe. I had honestl

Chapter Two
I shoved Noah’s chest with every bit of strength I had left. The “Noah-Haze” shattered instantly, replaced by a cold numbing fear. I stumbled back, smoothing my hair and clothe. When I looked up, he was gone—the mask was back, and already heading out the door, like nothing happened.“Damn, Maddie. Give a guy a second,” Noah drawled, his voice back to that effortless, gravelly hum. He stepped out of the bathroom, partially blocking her view of me as he moved. “The girl hit her head. Just didn’t want her bleeding on the rugs. Mom would kill me.”“Is she okay?” Maddie asked, her voice of mix of suspicion and fake concern as she tried to peer over his shoulder.“She’s fine. Just dramatic,”Noah’s tome was cold as he grabbed Maddie, pulling her close like I’d never happened. “I am done here. Let’s go.” He didn’t look back. I stood there, hearing them head upstairs— Maddie’s voice, his laugh. I looked at the mirror. Swollen lips, messy hair, bleeding head. God I was a mess.I’d been crush

Chapter Three
“ i have to go,” I choked out, already halfway to the door.“Khi, wait! I’ll come with you,” Zion said, dropping the spatula. He looked genuinely worried, his Harvard high completely gone.“No, It’s fine! Stay, eat,” I yelled, not looking back. Ran before Zion could move.I practically dove into the car. It looked like it had seen better days. I turned on the car, the engine purring to life as I zoomed off.My mind was spinning. 20 minutes later, I pulled up the station. My hands were shaking so bad I could barely turn the key off.I walked inside, the smell of stale coffee and floor cleaner hitting me. “Khione Kay,” I told the front desk. “I was asked to report.”A police officer stepped out, his voice matching the one on the phone. “Ms. Kay. Your brother was arrested for—““Cousin,” I corrected him quickly, my voice sharp.Keisel. Here we go again. He was older but apparently needed saving than I did. I hated how reckless he was. His name on that report made me mad at mom for being

Chapter Four
I cleared the bail without thinking it through. The officer went to fetch Kiesel. My hands felt numb as I signed the papers. It was done. Saved him again—lost count. He walked out, smelling like cigarettes, playing victim. I didn’t look.“Don’t speak,” I snapped before he could open his mouth. “Just get in the car.”I dropped him off at his apartment, thankful that mom was still pulling her double shift at the hospital. She didn’t need to see the shame written all over my face—or bandage on my forehead.By the time I got to my room, I was vibrating with anxiety. The alert still sitting on my screen like a ticking bomb. My phone buzzed again, this time a call from Xalia.“Khi! Tell me you are coming tonight’s party,” she chirped.I was exhausted. My head throbbed, my heart felt like it had been through a paper shredder. But the thought of sitting in this quiet apartment, staring at my community college flyers and thinking about Noah’s gift, was worse. I needed a break. I needed to tell

Chapter Five
I didn’t wait for him to help me. I shoved his hand off my arm, my skin buzzing where he’d touched me, and found my own footing.“Do you have a habit of always being in the way?” I snapped back. I straightened my dress, trying to regain some shred of confidence I’d faked in the car.“Maybe I just like watching you trip, Drama Queen,” he drawled, his voice dropping into the low, sandpaper territory that always made my stomach do a sick flip.“It’s the only time you are quiet.”He stepped closer, his shadow completely swallowing me up. His eyes flickered to my hairline, where my messy updo was struggling to hide my bruise.I didn’t give him the satisfaction of a flinch. I just rolled my eyes, a sharp, dismissive movement that made my head throb. “Go find a puck to hit, Noah. I’m bored.”I didn’t wait for a comeback. I spun on my heel, the hem of my black gown swishing against my thighs as I marched toward the kitchen bar.The kitchen was a blur of noen lights and the smell of spilled gi

Chapter Six
Noah didn’t wait for my answer. He kept his hand firmly on my back, guiding me to the long folding table.The hockey guys cleared out the moment they saw Noah approaching. The table was a mess of spilled bear and discarded bottle caps, but I didn’t care.“Choose your side, Drama Queen,” Noah drawled, his voice barely audible over the bass.“I want the red ones,” I slurred.“Red for the girl who’s always a walking red flag. Fitting,” he teased, a dark glint in his eyes. He reached across and dragged the blue cups toward his end of the table. “I’ll take the blue. Matches the ice in my veins, right?”He picked up a ping pong ball, rolling between his long fingers. He looked entirely too sober, too focused, and way too handsome in the dim, neon light.“You know, Khione,” he said, leaning over the table so his face would level with mine. “Most people would be smart enough to quit while they’re behind. But you? You just love a scene.”“I am not making a scene,” I stammered, reaching for a b

Chapter Seven
My eyes snapped opened after how many hours long I had been away.Urgh! God! It felt like someone had driven a knife straight into my head. My head throbbed with headache. I groaned, squeezed my eyes shut, and tried to piece together the blurry part of the yesterday night.The party. The tequila. The bet. Noah. The memory of Petra. Then, nothing.I tried to sit up, but the room spun violently. I reached down to steady myself against the mattress and there I realized I wasn’t wearing anything. Shit. I frantically pulled the duvet up my chin, my breathing coming in shallow, panicked hitches. This wasn’t my room.“Where am i? I questioned. I started to swing my leg over the side of the bed, desperate to find my dress and run, when the bathroom door clicked open.I froze.Noah stepped out, and for a second, I forgot how to breathe. He was shirtless, low-slung dark jean’s hanging of his hips in a way that felt illegal.The light caught his abs. A cigarette was perched between his lips, sm

Chapter Eight
The ride back to my house was a blur of nausea and flashing sunlight. For an entire hour, I stared out the window of the ride share, my reflection in the glass looking like a ghost of the girl who had left the house yesterday.When I finally pulled into the driveway, the silence was a relief. The car was gone; she clearly headed to the office for her sunday shift. I entered the house, my heels clicking loudly against the hardwood. On the kitchen counter, a small yellow post it note sat next to a covered pot.There’s jollof in the pot. Love, Mom.I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding. She probably thought I slept over at Xalia’s.I ignored the food, I didn’t have appetite to eat right now. All I wanted was my bed, a dark room, and twelve hours of sleep. I dragged myself down the hallway, pushed open my bedroom door, and was halfway to the mattress when a shadow moved.“Arghhhhhh!!!!” I screamed, jumping back, nearly tripping over my own feet. My heart attempted to leap out of

Chapter Nine
Monday arrived with vengeance.The clock on my night stand shrieked at 6:30am, sounding like a drill press against my skull. I didn’t even have the energy to throw it across the room. Mom had come back very late last night— I’d heard the muffled click of her heels and the hum of microwave around midnight. I stayed perfectly still staring at the ceiling and pretending to be dead to the world, but my mind was a chaotic loop of Xalia’s parting words. I hope you do the right thing before it’s too late.I was supposed to sleep for 12 hours just like I said. I was supposed to have a reset my brain, buried the tequila-soaked memories of Noah Graves, and woken up as the “Perfect Khione” again. But Xalia had a way of incinerating a mood before it even had a chance to settle. Between my headache and secret, sleep had been an impossible luxury.I had tossed and turned, watching the red numbers on my clock tick away the hours of my life. 1:00am. 2:15am. Every time I closed my eyes, I felt Noah’s

Chapter Ten
The first period bell had barely stopped echoing when I slumped into my seat in AP Literature. I dropped my bag onto the floor, the heavy thud sounding far too much like a gavel. I didn’t even have my notebook out when the class room door opened.Our school secretary, Mrs. Gable, stepped in with a yellow slip of paper in her hand. She didn’t say a word, just handed it to the teacher and pointed towards me.“Khione Kay?” My teacher called out. “The principal would like to see you in his office. Immediately.”A cold shiver ran down my spine. The principal? My mind swirling. I didn’t do anything wrong. I was the girl with the pristine record, the one who won every award and followed every rule. My heart hammered against my ribs as I stood up, feeling Xalia’s burning gaze on the side of my face. She looked just as confused as I was.I stood up, and walked out into yhe hallway. I was halfway to the administrative wing when I saw Zion.“Khi,” Zion stopped, his brow furrowed. “Where are you
