On any day our paths would never cross. Then I was forced to go to the Ruthless Disciples. Every month they do something called the hunt. I didn't plan to ever attend an event, but I needed the money. I thought it was nothing more than an adult version of hide-and-seek. I had no idea how wrong I...

I made a mistake. At sixteen years old I fell for the wrong man. Callum Torrio. Ruthless billionaire. Dangerous villain. My best friend's father. At twenty one, I gave up hope that he would ever notice me. He’s twenty years older than me and an arms dealer for the mob....

They say there is always a calm before the storm. A time when you think you’re safe, protected from the destruction that you know is going to come eventually. Harper was that calm. And I? I was the motherfucking storm. As kids, we were best friends. She was the light to my darkness. I used to...

Two years ago, she ruined my family’s life. Maybe she thought it was only a little lie. That she did the right thing, that the worst was behind her, that no one had gotten hurt. Oh how naive the black-haired beauty was. Fate has finally brought her back to me, to Blackthorn Academy. Once upon...

What is a predator without his prey? Elyse Silver was never mine to keep. The day I saved her life, I ensured we would forever be enemies. Hating her was easy. Bullying her, as simple as breathing. Stopping myself from falling for her… I had no idea how impossible that would become. The harder...

Fear. Rage. Pain. I’ve endured it all. Seen it all. I’m the bad brother, the evil one—the psychopath. I wasn’t born this way. I was made this way. Neglect, abuse, trauma, and pain really mess a person up. Then the day I never thought would come finally does. It’s time for revenge.

He calls me prey. I call him a bully. Sebastian Arturo isn't just cruel, he's downright terrifying. With piercing green eyes, a body made for doing very bad things, and a charming demeanor, it's no wonder everyone thinks the world of him everyone except me.

Golden boy. Party king. Trust fund brat. That's what they call me—everyone's favorite disaster. They call her crazy, and broken. I call her beautiful, careful, haunted.

Once upon a time she was my sister’s best friend. I’d always wanted her to be mine, that is until the night everything changed and my love morphed into pure hatred. Now I’m a vile bastard with a chip on his shoulder. Cruel black hate is all I know....

She was a shy little virgin, looking to rebel. I was a bad accident waiting to happen. I’m the bad boy your parents warn you about. I’ve been to prison, killed for someone I love, and now I’m suffering through college. Then I see her. Sweet, so naïve it hurts, and beautiful....

He was more than a bully, he was what living nightmares were made of. It started as a childish game played between two friends, which ended in heartbreak. She knew him once. A long time ago they may have even called each other friends....

The bet was simple. You draw a name from the hat. That's the girl you have to seduce. The girl you have to make fall head over heels in love with you. It wasn't hard for him to do, in fact, it was something he did all the time. He was known for breaking hearts....
