Semua Bab BETTING ON THE WRONG BROTHER: ENEMIES-TO-LOVERS ROMANCE: Bab 1 - Bab 6

✧･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ: SLOANE ✧･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ: ✦ ✧ ✦ I don't belong at Passion College. I'm the scholarship student who skips meals to save money at the most expensive school in the country while everyone else complains about which European vacation to take next. I'm the error in their perfect algorithm. So why did I fight so hard to get in? Because I've been obsessed with the Alexander Beauty Empire since I was thirteen… since I watched their campaign about redefining beauty standards. They're the kind of company where ideas don't just sell lipstick… they shift culture. And you don't get through Alexander's doors without a degree from a school like Passion. So I clawed my way here… for a shot at my dream job. A chance to flip the script on what beauty means and finally escape my own personal hell. It's second year now. I still hide behind oversized sweaters and chunky glasses. Keeping my head down, my GPA up, my mouth shut when people like Ashley Alexander go out of their way to remind me I

✧･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ:LEXTER ✧･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ: ✦ ✧ ✦ There she was. Sloane Carter. Standing by the poolside entrance like she'd materialized out of thin air. The girl I'd just had my fingers inside twenty minutes ago. And fuck if I knew why I could still taste her on my lips. Still feel the way she trembled. Still hear those soft broken sounds she made against my mouth. The truth is Sloane Carter didn't exist in my world. She was the girl who practically lived in the library. The one with the thick glasses who kept her head down and her earbuds in. The straight-A student who made everyone else feel stupid just by existing. We didn't run in the same circles. I only ever caught glimpses of her when I passed by the library. Usually buried in a book. Always alone. The bet was simple. Twenty grand to make Sloane Carter think someone like me could want someone like her. Then ignore her like she never existed. Ashley's idea... her twisted little game. Payback for the day Sloane embarrassed h

✧･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ:SLOANE ✧･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ✦ ✧ ✦Some people say the universe has a plan.Those people have clearly never been stuck in Lexter Gray's arms while simultaneously wanting to both murder him and crawl inside his skin.I kept twisting. Fighting. Clawing at his stupid perfect arms."You stood there and watched your girlfriend push me into the pool and now you want to ask me questions like some fucking savior.""I don't have a girlfriend.""I don't care. Let me go.""No." He rasped. "You're hypothermic. If you don't warm up properly your heart could stop. So no. I'm not letting you go."My hypothermia? I only joked about it once when he asked about my sweaters.And he... remembered?Stop it, Sloane. It was all part of the bet."Stay still or you could fucking die." His arms pinched my body in."I'd rather die than spend another second in your arms.""Well you're not dying on my watch."I shoved at his chest. "You repulse me."He laughed. "Oh, you liar." His grip tightened. "You were writhing i
