SHE WAS NEVER SUPPOSED TO FALL FOR HIM
Black Roses & Broken Rules — Description Mayara came to college looking for a fresh start. She never expected to find Jay—the mysterious boy with a dangerous reputation, unreadable eyes, and a darkness that seems to follow him everywhere. He is everything she should stay away from. Cold. Possessive. Unpredictable. Yet somehow, he always seems to be there when she needs him. Then the black roses begin appearing. Anonymous notes. Hidden secrets. Strange warnings. And a mystery buried deep inside the college that Jay refuses to talk about. The closer Mayara gets to the truth, the closer she gets to Jay—and she begins to wonder whether he is protecting her… or protecting his own secret. Because in this college, nothing is as innocent as it looks. And sometimes, the person you should fear the most is the person you can't stop falling for. He was the darkness everyone warned her about. She was the only light he couldn't bring himself to destroy. Welcome to a love story where every rose has a thorn, every secret has a price, and breaking the rules could cost everything.
Jay— Traits, Behaviour & Appearance Traits - Dominant and naturally commanding - Mysterious and difficult to read - Highly intelligent and observant - Confident without constantly seeking attention - Protective of the people he loves - Possessive when emotions get involved - Extremely loyal once he trusts someone - Ambitious and disciplined - Calm under pressure - Has a sharp, sarcastic sense of humor - Doesn't forgive betrayal easily - Secretly soft beneath his intimidating exterior Behaviour Jay rarely raises his voice. His silence can be more intimidating than anger. He watches everything around him and notices details other people miss. Around strangers, he's distant and reserved. Around his close friends, his personality becomes more relaxed and teasing. Around Mayara, however, he is completely different. He becomes protective, attentive, and quietly affectionate while still maintaining his teasing, dominant attitude. He doesn't like seeing her upset and instinctively tries to solve whatever is bothering her. When jealous, he becomes noticeably quieter and more serious rather than creating a public scene. Appearance Jay has the kind of presence that immediately attracts attention without him trying. - Tall, athletic build - Broad shoulders and a naturally strong frame - Defined arms and chest - Narrow waist and powerful posture - Thick, slightly messy dark hair - Sharp jawline - Straight nose - Defined cheekbones - Dark, intense eyes - Thick eyebrows - Light stubble that adds to his mature appearance - Deep, calm voice - Usually wears black, white, charcoal, or dark-toned outfits Greek-God Physique His body has a Greek-god aesthetic—balanced proportions, broad shoulders, a defined chest, narrow waist, strong arms, and athletic legs. He looks powerful rather than excessively muscular, with a naturally sculpted physique that gives him an imposing presence. Overall vibe: Greek god meets mysterious college bad boy—elegant, intimidating, confident, and dangerously charming.
The first day of the new semester began like any other.
Students rushed through the college corridors, books pressed against their chests, voices filling every corner of the campus.
Mayara walked through the main gate with her headphones on, completely unaware that someone had already noticed her.
Jay stood on the second-floor balcony with a few of his friends, casually listening to their conversation.
Then his eyes stopped.
On her.
He didn't know her name yet.
He only knew she was a junior.
Mayara adjusted her bag on her shoulder and walked toward the academic block, completely unaware of the pair of eyes following her from above.
Jay's friend noticed.
“Bro, who are you looking at?”
Jay didn't answer immediately.
His gaze remained fixed on her until she disappeared through the building doors.
Then, almost casually, he asked,
“Who is she?”
His friend followed his gaze and smirked.
“New junior. Mayara, I think.”
Jay repeated her name quietly.
“Mayara.”
Something about the way he said it made his friend raise an eyebrow.
Jay finally looked away.
But the thought of her didn't leave.
He didn't know it yet, but that ordinary morning had just introduced him to the girl who would become the most distracting person in his entire college life.*
