Savannah Elise Hart is perfect on paper—polished, untouchable, and desperate to keep it that way. Cassian Rhys Blackwood is chaos in his black leather jacket, with a smirk that could undo her world. When a rumor threatens Savannah’s future and a false accusation jeopardizes Cassian’s freedom, their fake dating deal seems simple—until stolen kisses in the dark and whispered confessions ignite something dangerously real. He pins her against the studio wall, paint smeared on her cheek as his lips hover over hers. “Tell me this doesn’t feel real.” In a game where rules shatter and hearts are on the line, pretending has never been so tempting—or so risky.

Fake Dating Went Wrong 14. Into the Cliff
The night air was crisp, carrying the faint scent of autumn leaves as Savannah and Cassian strolled side by side. The streets were quiet, illuminated by flickering streetlights that cast long shadows on the pavement. It had been an unexpectedly peaceful evening—just the two of them, sharing ice cream, laughing at stupid things, and for a moment, it felt like the chaos of the past few days didn’t exist. Savannah turned to look at Cassian. He was gazing ahead, his jaw clenched as if lost in thought. The dim glow from the lights traced the sharp angles of his face, making him look almost… vulnerable. "Hey," she said softly, nudging his arm. "You good?" He exhaled, stopping in his tracks. She stopped too, facing him. Cassian ran a hand through his hair, looking at her as if debating something. Then, without warning, he took a step closer. "I was a dick earlier," he said. "Back at my place." Savannah blinked. "Uh… yeah. No argument there." A ghost of a smirk flickered on h

Steam curled in soft tendrils around Savannah as she stepped out of the shower, the warmth of the water still clinging to her skin. She wrapped herself in a towel, rubbing another against her damp hair as she padded toward her dresser. But something on her desk caught her eye. A plate of sandwiches and a steaming cup of hot chocolate. Her lips twitched upwards despite herself. She knew who had left it. David. A bitter pang settled in her chest. David. The brother who had once been her best friend, her protector, her partner in crime. Back when things were simple—before their eldest brother’s accident, before grief swallowed their family whole. That night had shattered more than just a car; it had broken them. David had changed. He became distant, cold. And now? Now he was just another reminder of how nothing in her life stayed the same. She shook her head, pushing the memories away. Grabbing her phone, she unlocked it, needing a distraction. But the moment the screen lit u

Cassian leaned against the headboard, watching Savannah with an unreadable expression. The silence stretched between them, thick and heavy, like an unspoken truth neither was ready to confront. He let out a slow breath before he finally spoke, his voice softer than she had ever heard before. “I’m sorry,” he murmured. “I’m so sorry I left you there.” Savannah’s fingers tensed around the hem of the oversized shirt she had borrowed from him to sleep in. She kept her gaze trained on the floor, her emotions warring inside her. “I promise that won’t happen again.” She exhaled, closing her eyes for a moment before shaking her head. “Why do you care so much?” Cassian’s jaw tightened. He swallowed as if debating something, but instead of answering, he whispered, “Don’t ask me anything. Please.” A lump formed in Savannah’s throat. His reluctance made her heart clench. “Cassian, this is all a game to you, right?” His brows furrowed. “What game?” Savannah hesitated, then shook h

A soft warmth surrounded Savannah as she stirred awake, her body sinking into something firm yet comforting. Blinking slowly, her vision adjusted to the dim morning light filtering through the large windows, casting golden streaks across the room. Her heart skipped a beat when she realized where she was—wrapped securely in Cassian’s arms, his strong, steady breaths fanning against her temple. He was holding her like she belonged there, his face relaxed, almost boyish in sleep. The sharp edges of his usual cocky smirk had softened, replaced by an innocence she had never seen before. His lips, slightly parted, formed the faintest pout, making him look… vulnerable. Safe. Savannah felt an unfamiliar warmth bloom in her chest. Without thinking, she lifted a tentative hand and traced the outline of his lips with her fingertips, barely grazing them. They were soft, impossibly so. "How soft they are…" she mused, her own lips tingling at the mere thought. “Like what you see, Rivers?”

Cassian's phone buzzed on the nightstand, the sound cutting through the silence of his dimly lit room. His jaw clenched as he reached for it, his muscles still taut from the events of the night. His eyes scanned the message, and his entire body stiffened. "Saw you tonight walking with that perfect river girl. So you're actually taking this bet seriously, good to know." The words burned into his mind like a brand. His grip on the phone tightened, his knuckles turning white. A sharp exhale escaped his lips, a mix of anger and frustration. Without a second thought, he grabbed his leather jacket and stormed out of the house. The night air was cold, biting against his skin, but he barely noticed. His mind was a whirlwind of emotions—anger at himself, at them, at the situation. The streets blurred together as he made his way to the bar, his strides purposeful and laced with fury. The bar was alive with noise, laughter, and the clinking of glasses. A group of people sat in the corner

The tension in the air was suffocating as Cassian’s voice cut through the hallway like a blade. “What the hell do you think you’re doing?” he growled, his voice low but filled with an edge that made the hairs on the back of Savannah’s neck stand up. Derek turned, his hand still gripping Savannah’s wrist tightly, his expression dark and wild. “This doesn’t concern you, Black,” he sneered. “She’s my girlfriend. Stay out of it.”Cassian’s eyes flickered to Savannah’s face, pale and tear-streaked, and then down to her wrist, red and raw from Derek’s bruising grip. Something inside him snapped. His jaw clenched, and his hands curled into fists at his sides. “She’s not your anything,” Cassian bit out, his voice cold and dangerous. Before Derek could react, Cassian closed the distance between them, grabbing him by the collar and yanking him away from Savannah. “And if you ever touch her again, you’ll regret it.”“Let go of me, you bastard!” Derek spat, struggling against Cassian’s hold.

The rain showed no signs of stopping as Cassian and Savannah continued to run, their laughter echoing through the empty campus grounds. The water soaked them to the bone, plastering Savannah’s dress to her body like a second skin. She was too caught up in the moment to notice at first, the cold, wet fabric clinging uncomfortably to her frame. Cassian turned to her, a crooked grin on his face, his hair dripping water down the sharp angles of his cheekbones. “You’re a mess, Rivers,” he teased, his voice barely audible over the sound of the rain hammering the ground.Savannah playfully shoved him, but her cheeks were flushed—not from exertion, but from the way his eyes lingered on her. She hadn’t seen that look on his face before, and it made her heart race in a way she didn’t quite understand. “You’re the one who dragged me into this,” she shot back, though there was no real anger in her tone.When they finally made it back to the main hall, both of them were breathless and dripping wa
Last Updated : 2025-01-28Fake Dating Went Wrong 7. Rain and Barefoot
Savannah stood frozen, her mind a whirl of confusion as the echoes of Cassian’s kiss lingered on her lips. She could still taste him—rich, intoxicating, as though the world had melted into nothing but the press of his mouth against hers. The music in the gym had become muffled, distant, as though it were happening in another world altogether. She blinked rapidly, trying to regain some semblance of control over her senses, but everything felt like it was spinning out of her grasp.Cassian, however, seemed unfazed, his expression a mix of amusement and something she couldn’t quite place. He didn’t seem to notice—or maybe, he did—how unsettled she felt. Instead, he reached down and brushed a stray lock of hair behind her ear, his fingers grazing her skin softly. “You okay, Rivers?” he asked, his voice low, but with a teasing edge.Savannah swallowed hard, her chest tight. “Yeah… I just…” She didn’t know what to say, what to think. Did he mean it? Was it part of the act? Cassian’s eyes s
Last Updated : 2025-01-28Fake Dating Went Wrong 6. Playing the Part
Savannah stood in front of the mirror, adjusting the strap of her simple black dress for the third time. She hated how her hands trembled, hated how her reflection looked more like a girl preparing for her execution than someone playing a role in a harmless game. Tonight wasn’t just about appearances; it was their first big test as a "couple," and the thought of it made her stomach churn. The annual Autumn Gala at Ridgeway High wasn’t an ordinary high school event—it was ‘the’ event. The gym was transformed into a sparkling ballroom every year, complete with fairy lights strung across the rafters, glittering chandeliers borrowed from God knows where, and rows of round tables draped in deep burgundy cloth. Savannah had planned on skipping it, as she had every year. But now? Now, she was walking straight into the lion’s den with Cassian Black at her side.A sharp knock at the door snapped her out of her thoughts. Savannah's heart jumped, and she smoothed the nonexistent wrinkles on her

1. The Intervention
Savannah Bennett had always considered herself a fighter. She had the sharp mind, the quick wit, and the ability to stand her ground when she needed to. But today, in this moment, none of that seemed to matter. Not when her ex-boyfriend, Derek Blackwell, had her trapped in a secluded classroom, his hands on her body, his breath hot against her skin. “Come on, Sav. You know you want this,” Derek’s voice was thick with frustration, as he pushed her against the desk. “Don’t make this harder than it needs to be.”Savannah’s heart pounded in her chest, her skin flushed with anxiety and fear. She had tried to push him away, tried to tell him that it wasn’t what he thought, but he wasn’t listening. Derek was the star football player at Riverstone High, the kind of guy everyone looked up to—everyone except her. “Derek, no. Stop,” she managed, her voice shaky as she tried to pull away. “This isn’t me.”His grip tightened, his eyes darkening with anger. “Don’t pretend like you haven’t been le...
