Envy is a 73K+ word story about ambition, resentment, and the love that forces you to confront your deepest insecurities.
Mykal Jones has spent her life watching others get what she worked twice as hard for. She’s talented, driven, and ready to claim the career she’s always dreamed of—until Desmond Ellis shows up and threatens to take it all away.
Desmond never asked for the privilege his name carries, but he knows the power it holds. Focused on building his father’s legacy, he isn’t looking for distractions. But Mykal? She becomes one the moment they meet.
She sees him as the enemy. He sees her as everything he didn’t know he needed.
When a rivalry turns into something neither of them expected, can love be enough to quiet the envy? Or will Mykal’s resentment destroy the one thing she never realized she wanted?

Envy Synopsis
She’s an egocentric journalist, enkindled with envy for earthly possessions belonging to others. He’s knowingly kindhearted, kin to a journalism king, and has an immense respect and duty to kinship. In any other circumstance, they would never have crossed paths, but when they do, it becomes an enlightening tale of when opposites attract.
Mykal Jones
"I hated Desmond when we first met because he stole my hopes and dreams. He waltzed right into my life and jeopardized the fruits of my hard work. That shouldn’t surprise me though, because this always happens to me. I should be used to coming out the loser in this game of life, especially when it involves matters of the heart.
So, yeah, I hated him. With his perfect smile and his perfect existence. Desmond’s name alone is a golden ticket in print media, and I can’t help but hate him for that too. But what I hate most of all is that his heart is so pure he can have every and anything he wants because he deserves it.
So what does he want with me?"
Desmond Ellis
"I hated how Mykal and I met. She formed a negative first impression of me almost immediately where there need not have been. My intentions were never to be drawn to her or anyone, anyway. I was on a mission to carry out my father’s dream and to bring his vision to life, but I suppose God had a better plan to feed two birds with one seed.
Because the way Mykal waltzed right into my life and stole my heart took me completely off guard. And what’s worse is her stealing my heart and jeopardizing my plans is something she doesn’t realize she’s done.
She is perfectly imperfect with raw potential, and that makes her perfect for me. But how do I get her to see for herself that I’m perfect for her too?"
Many know envy as a sin of the heart, potent enough to cause unhappiness. It’s the most socially acceptable out of the seven deadly sins because envy is deeply rooted in human nature.
If love is kind and also patient, can a virtuous love save an envious heart from self-destruction?
