Eighteen Below Him

Samira James has two weeks left.

Two weeks until she turns eighteen.

Two weeks until everything changes.

And a few months left trapped in high school with the boy she hates most.

Calvin Simms has been her enemy for as long as she can remember. Popular, untouchable, and the living reminder of a childhood misunderstanding neither of them ever corrected. Their interactions are sharp, heated, and carefully controlled.

Until they aren't.

As months pass, tension replaces silence.

Jealousy replaces indifference.

And lines blur where hatred once lived.

With rivals watching, secrets resurfacing, and temptation growing harder to ignore, Samira must decide if sticking to her rules is worth denying what her body and her heart are already choosing.

Because some mistakes feel too good to stop.

And sometimes...

you don't fall for the person you want.

You fall for the one you swore to hate.
