Hiya, so I fell in love with the books 'after' by Anna todd! And throughout the whole series I couldn't help but wonder how it would have been for Zed to actually get a chance to date Tessa! He was so amazing in the books! and he deserved to at least have a shot. I'm a die hard HESSA FAN! so don't hate me, this is just for fun, so don't read if you don't want to. Basically just a little story of how life would of been if Hardin didn't answer Landon's phone calls while he was in London pushing Tessa away and Tessa had to move on about her fathers passing by herself. Tessa is such a forgiving character so this is kinda my version of how things could of turned out. This is completely just for fun. PLEASE BE AWARE THIS IS MY VERSION OF WHAT COULD OF HAPPENED. THIS IS MORE TO DO WITH THE WATTPAD BOOKS NOT THE PUBLISHED BOOKS I FEEL THE WATTPAD BOOKS ARE BETTER THEY GIVE A BETTER BACK ROUND OF HER AND ZEDS FRIENDSHIP. The published books left out so much important things I reckon. Credit of characters to Anna Todd!! Hope you enjoy if not, don't read it LOL :) 🙃

Hadley Jamison doesn't know what to think when she hears that her classmate, Archer Morales, committed suicide. She didn't exactly know him, but that doesn't stop her from feeling like there was something she could have done to help him. So to Hadley's surprise, on the very night of Archer's funeral, she has a run in with Death himself and is offered the chance to go back in time to stop Archer from ending his life. The catch? She only has twenty-seven days to do it. And if Hadley doesn't succeed? Well, she doesn't want to think about that.

Seven years ago, Emerald Hutton had left her family and friends behind for high school in New York City, cradling her broken heart in her hands, to escape just only one person. Her brother's best friend, whom she loved from the day he'd saved her from bullies at the age of seven. Broken by the boy of her dreams and betrayed by her loved ones, Emerald had learned to bury the pieces of her heart in the deepest corner of her memories. Until seven years later, she has to come back to her hometown after finishing her college. The place where now the cold-hearted stone of a billionaire resides, whom her dead heart once used to beat for. Scarred by his past, Achilles Valencian had turned into the man everyone feared. The scorch of his life had filled his heart with bottomless darkness. And the only light that had kept him sane, was his Rosebud. A girl with freckles and turquoise eyes he'd adored all his life. His best friend's little sister. After years of distance, when the time has finally come to capture his light into his territory, Achilles Valencian will play his game. A game to claim what's his. Will Emerald be able to distinguish the flames of love and desire to keep her heart safe? Or she will let the devil lure her into his trap? Because no one ever could escape his games. He gets what he wants. And this game is called... The trap of Ace. *** Book one of 'Obsessive Billionaires' series ♥️ It can be read as a standalone.
