"what're you doing?" "it's a pinkie promise" Aloura laughed lightly, grabbing his bruised hand and prying his pinkie from his locked fists. Her heart almost dropping at the sight of a small tattoo on his forearm. Evil incised into his skin, with two horns resting above the words. She stared at it for a moment, before shaking her thoughts away. "Now what?" he raises and eyebrow as his eyes lock with Aloura's. "You wrap it around mine" Aloura's gaze fell back onto their hands. Elias continued to watch her, and Aloura could feel her hands tremble from the nerves. His gaze almost burnt her, but she refused to meet it. "Just like that" she grins, gesturing to their now locked pinkies. "Now the promise is sealed in." Aloura's voice begins to falter. Elias' eyes fall to Aloura's lips. She licks them, and his eyes darken. Although they'd already kissed, Aloura found her knees beginning to weaken, and the oxygen around them no longer enough for two. Aloura's eyes flicker between Elias' and they stay like that for a moment, both too scared to be the first who pulls away. "That's all?" he whispers after a moment. His eyes now remaining on her lips. Aloura swallows, but nods, not trusting her voice to speak. "You can't break it" she whispers after a moment, feeling an overwhelming urge to warn him about the consequences of breaking a pinkie promise. "Or you'll lose your pinkie." A ghost of a smile tugs at his lips as he nods gently, mentally noting to not break the promise. Because who would risk their pinkie. Elias smirked after a moment before gently pressing his lips onto Aloura's slightly ajar ones. "What was that for?" Aloura whispers as he pulls away. Elias grinned, "My way of sealing a promise" Aloura laughed a little. But Aloura doesn't believe in promises. ♡ ♡ ♡ #1 in sad #pp1 in Elias #2 in Young Adult #7 in love #12 in crime #15 in sadstory #16 in romance #25 in death

*** Dincolo de copaci se află pădurea pe care noi nu o vedem din cauza lor. Suntem orbiţi de prejudecăți şi nu mai suntem capabili să distingem adevărata faţă a oamenilor din jurul nostru. Nu le vedem sufletul... Doar inocenții, cei neatinși de măști, cei autentici pot să vadă frumusețea pădurii. Copacii pot forma o pădure sau pot alege să trăiască singuri. La fel și oamenii.

Unul dintre aceştia este Alexander Smithson, fiul lui Aaron Smithson, omul de afaceri care a răpit averea familiei sale. Alexander este la fel de cinic şi arogant ca şi tatăl său. El îi urăşte şi îi dispreţuieşte pe cei săraci. Întâlnirea dintre el şi Christine este explozivă. În numai o lună, el reuşeşte să o facă să-şi piardă micile economii şi să fie închisă în arestul poliţiei. Copertă realizată de @georgianapetcu902

*** ,,Pedeapsa lui Matthew" continuă povestea lui Matthew Carson, prietenul cel mai bun al lui Alexander Smithson. Cine este Matthew? Este el cu adevărat acel om pe care bărbaţii şi l-ar dori ca prieten, iar femeile ca iubit? Sau poate că este o persoană diferită de acel Matt aflat în ,,Dincolo de copaci"? Ce l-a determinat pe Matthew să se schimbe? De ce a ales să trăiască în singurătate? Veţi afla totul în povestea de faţă. ,,Drumul îi purta spre ţinuturi necunoscute. Şoseaua şerpuia întunecată în urma lor. Nici el şi nici ea nu ştiau încotro se îndreaptă. Viaţa avea să decidă ce se va întâmpla cu ei. Care le va fi destinul? Vor putea să urce muntele sau să depăşească prăpastia care îi despărţea? El îi ucisese tatăl, iar ea încercase să răzbune moartea părintelui ei. Şi cu toate astea se simţeau atraşi, în mod inexplicabil, unul de celălalt. El credea că nu se va putea îndrăgosti de altă fată, iar ea nu mai avea loc de alte sentimente în inima ei plină de suferinţă şi de ură." Copertă realizată de @georgianapetcu902

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)
