Tina Kiss

I never meant to kiss him. It was a stupid mistake—a reckless moment fueled by too much adrenaline and the thrill of a party I should never have been at. But when my lips brushed against his, the world stopped. His hands gripped my waist, his breath tangled with mine, and for a fleeting second, I forgot who he was. Liam Blackwood. My stepbrother. The guy who had tormented me since the day our parents married. The brooding, tattooed bad boy with a reputation that made girls weak in the knees. I should have pulled away. I should have screamed. Instead, I let him deepen the kiss, let his touch set my skin on fire. Now, we’re trapped in a dangerous game of stolen glances, whispered threats, and undeniable chemistry. Every moment alone is a ticking bomb. Every brush of his fingers makes me crave something I can’t have. He’s forbidden. Off-limits. But the way he looks at me? The way he makes me feel? It’s only a matter of time before we cross the line again. And this time, there will be no turning back.

Heartbroken and angry, Kaida decided to make her ex-boyfriend jealous by kissing her best friend's older brother, Maverick. Unfortunately, she reignited the flame he'd been trying to quench for years. Now, there was no turning back and no quenching the obsessive flame burning inside Maverick for her. After some time, Liam realized he truly loved Kaida and wanted her back, but Maverick wasn't letting her go. Kaida was his now, and he would go to the end of the earth for her sake. What began as revenge against her ex turned into something twisted and dark: something beyond words and certainly beyond obsession.

I once thought Jareth was the love of my life. He said "Mom's in the hospital," but then turned around and kissed Lily in the VIP seats at the concert; when his bipolar disorder flared up, he was violent with me, but then told Lily, "You’re such a good girl"; he had videos with Lily saved on his phone, and in the chat records, he called me "the cold, emotionless finance robot." Five years of love, ruined in his lies and betrayals. He thought I would cry and scream, but all I did was watch him finish his final act. When he knelt on the ground and said, "I was wrong," what I handed him was the merger agreement: "Sign it. This is the first debt you owe me." Those broken hearts will eventually turn into sharp blades that will pierce him. And I will rise from the ruins, living more beautifully than anyone else.

Thirty days into our argument, my girlfriend kissed her first love passionately right in front of me. I quietly asked my boss for a transfer to the Northern City branch, which was thousands of miles away. Her friends clapped and teased me. “Ivan, your girlfriend’s getting a new boyfriend. Aren’t you going to win her back?” I held her hand and sincerely said, “I’m sorry.” She looked down at me with a proud smile. “Okay, I forgive you. Tomorrow, pack your things. We’re going to see my parents.” I smiled and agreed. But she did not know I was leaving for Northern City that night.

I stood like a status calculating what is happening like a theory (my first kiss) I broke the kiss and a resounding slapped landed on my face. How dare you kiss me you jerk she yell with her eyes turning red. Take this for a start

Nelson se tragó por accidente una nueva droga afrodisíaca y su situación era crítica. Como su médico de cabecera, no tuve más opción que convertirme en su salvavidas. Como soy naturalmente fértil, me quedé embarazada con esa vez. Me casé con él y tuvimos unos gemelos, un niño y una niña, sumamente inteligentes y traviesos. Pero, después de casarnos, Nelson no quería que los niños lo llamaran «papá» y pasaba todo el día abrazando una foto de su alma gemela, borracho. Al cumplir diez años de matrimonio, él prendió fuego la casa y nos mató a los niños y a mí en el sótano. Resulta que, durante todo ese tiempo, Nelson guardaba rencor por lo que había hecho al salvarlo. Él pensaba que lo había hecho solo para acercarme a los poderosos, que había sido esa intervención la que había roto su relación con su amor, y que eso había causado que ella perdiera la cabeza y muriera en un accidente. Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, me di cuenta de que había regresado al día en que Nelson se tragó la droga. Esta vez, decidí darle la oportunidad de salvar a su amor platónico, mientras yo me dirigía al estudio...
