Introduction
Logan, on the other hand, thrives on breaking rules. When his teammates make a bet date the nerdy girl who’s never fallen for a jock he takes it as a challenge. After all, no one resists Logan Carter.
The only problem? Ava is practically allergic to him.
Every time he flirts, she shuts him down. Every time he “accidentally” shows up where she’s studying, she finds another spot. But Logan isn’t one to back down, so he ups his game:
✔ Surprise coffee deliveries? Check.
✔ Crashing her study group with ridiculous questions? Absolutely.
✔ Secretly stealing her notes to force her into tutoring him? Maybe not his best idea...
But somewhere between the chaos, the teasing, and the forced proximity (thanks to Ava's dorm mix-up that makes them neighbors), Logan starts falling for the very girl he was supposed to play.
When Ava discovers the bet, will Logan be able to prove that this game stopped being a game a long time ago? Or will she show him that, for the first time, Logan Carter has met his match?
Chapter 1
Ava’s POV
There were only a few rules I lived by in college. Rule number one? Never fall for a jock.
It wasn’t just a personal preference. It was survival, I had to avoid them inorder to do well.
I had seen too many smart girls throw away their GPA for a 6'0- ft something, guy with biceps , a quarterback playboy and a bad attendance record.
Not me, No way, I'll never do that that how I survived my first year in Westbridge university and I'm not going to break that rule in my second year.
That’s why, when Logan Carter walked into my History class fifteen minutes late, I didn’t even bother looking up from my laptop. I already knew who he was. everyone knew him, star quarterback, campus heartthrob, a playboy, and the guy who had probably never studied a day in his life.
Professor Ambrose mills barely looked at him as he walked to the only empty seat right next to me.
I stiffened. Just my luck, I didn't want to sit closer with him. jocks never supposed to be with nerds,not that I'm a nerd I just study too hard!.
Logan dropped into the chair, letting out a dramatic sigh like sitting in class was the hardest thing he’d done all day. His cologne is something warm and expensive filled the space between us. I ignored it. I don't want to fall into trouble. jocks were trouble!
“Hey, what’d I miss?” he asked, his voice smooth, like he knew he could charm his way through anything, he can charm other girls who are willing to open their legs for him but not me .
I kept my eyes on my screen. “Everything.”
I felt him staring at me. “Cool, cool,” he said. “So, what’s your name?”
Seriously? It was week four of the semester.
“Ava,” I answered curtly, still typing.
“Nice. I’m Logan.”
I finally looked at him, raising an eyebrow. “Yeah. I know, everybody knows you".
His lips quirked into a smirk. “Wow. Already a fan?”
I exhaled slowly. “I’m your tutor.”
His smirk faltered. his eyes widened and his jaw dropped. guess he didn't expect this coming.
Professor Ambrose mills had warned me last week that I’d be assigned an athlete for tutoring something about a scholarship requirement and academic probation, since I can only depends on my scholarship and not screw this up, I had been hoping for someone who at least cared about school.
Logan leaned back in his chair, stretching his long legs in front of him. “Well, that’s awkward.”
I shut my laptop. “Not as awkward as failing this class, if you fail, I lose my scholarship too".
His blue eyes flickered with amusement. “You think I’m going to fail?”
“I think you were fifteen minutes late to a fifty minute class, so I guess yes you're going to fail if I don't tutor you".
He laughed. Actually laughed. Like I had just told the funniest joke.
“Relax, Ava. I’ve got it under control, I'm not that dumb , I'll not fail it's just that history isn't that my favorite subject. why do we have to learn about some stupid past events? I don't know" he sighed.
I pressed my lips together. I had two options 1. Let him crash and burn, or 2. Do my job and drag him through this class kicking and screaming.
Before I could decide, Professor Ambrose called out, “Logan, glad you could join us. Since you missed the first half, why don’t you tell us your thoughts on the reading? I bet you're ahead of us since you came to class whenever you want".
Logan’s smirk disappeared. He turned to me in full panic mode. I rolled my eyes and slid my notes toward him. He scanned them, cleared his throat, and bullshitted his way through an answer.
I just saved his ass.
professor gave him a long look before nodding. “Try being on time next class, the world doesn't revolve around you Mr popular."
Logan exhaled in relief, then turned to me with a slow grin. “You just saved my ass.”
I took my notes back. I did but Don’t get used to it.”
The bell rang, and I gathered my things, hoping to escape before....
“So, when’s our first tutoring session?” Logan asked his voice heavy and deep. now I Know why girls flocked around him.
I glanced up. He was too close now, his confident smirk still in place. he was trying to tease me but I kept my cool.
I should have said no. Should have told him to take his education seriously before wasting my time.
Instead, I sighed. “Library. Tomorrow. Seven.”
Logan nodded. “Cool. See you then, Ava.”
As he walked off, I reminded myself of rule number one.
Never fall for a jock. even if he's drop dead gorgeous like him never do that! I reminded myself.
Especially not one like Logan Carter.
But something told me he wasn’t going to make it easy. he's used to be around and toy with girls but ain't the one.

The Last Tribrid: Hunted & Hollow
That’s what the blood in the woods says.
That’s what Astrid saw with her own eyes.
And that’s what should have ended it.
But it didn’t.
Because her death wasn’t the beginning of justice.
It was the beginning of the hunt.
As grief fractures their world, Astrid and her friends are forced to confront a terrifying truth—someone isn’t just killing.
They’re choosing.
Marking.
Watching.
And now, the circle is closing.
What started as a single investigation quickly unravels into something far more dangerous, pulling them into a web of ancient forces that have been waiting… watching… and are no longer willing to stay buried.
Enemies rise from places they never thought to look.
Allies become something else entirely.
And survival begins to demand impossible choices.
Because some lives can only be saved by sacrificing others.
As power awakens inside Astrid—wild, unstable, and willing to burn everything in its path—she’s pushed to the edge of what she can control… and what she’s willing to lose.
Even if it costs her everything.
Even if it costs them.
Because this time, they aren’t just being hunted.
They’ve already been marked.

Pregnant by My Husband's Rival Alpha
Those words should have destroyed me, but the truth was worse: I'd been used as a broodmare by the man who swore to love me, set up in a hotel room with a stranger because My husband Alexander Cross couldn't father children himself, and now I carried the secret babies of Damon Lester—the most powerful and dangerous Alpha in San Loris—while my own family replaced me with the daughter they'd always wanted. But when that same stranger's doctor appeared at my door, when twenty million dollars exchanged hands over a fake perfume bearing my secret identity, and when Damon's gray eyes locked onto mine with recognition I couldn't afford, I realized my carefully hidden life as the legendary perfumer Vera was colliding with a pregnancy that could cost me everything.
Could I protect my babies from the husband plotting my death, hide my true identity from the Alpha who's been hunting me for years, and reclaim the freedom I'd buried along with my dreams—even if it means standing alone against the wolves who see me as nothing more than a womb to be used and discarded?

The CEO's Unspoken Love
Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.
"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.
My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.
