[ UPDATES EVERY WEDNESDAY ] ❝And now you're just a stranger; with all of my secrets.❞ Emryn Grace has always been late, and consequently, she misses her connecting flight back to LA. Aiden Mendes has always seen things in monochrome, but when he crosses paths with Emryn at an airport, the world through his glasses begins to gain some color. One missed connecting flight. Two young strangers. A storm. No 'butterflies' or 'time stopped when their eyes met'. Just burning annoyance towards her simmering down his back every five minutes and his cold demeanor and 'ironic' eyes, piercing through her own walls. But add in a wild game of twenty-one questions and bold moves, their story might not be so black and white anymore. ▃ ▃ | MULTIMEDIA CHICKLIT // PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS 'State of Flux' | Highest ranks: #8 on Airport out of 3.75K stories #15 on Adults out of 1.87K stories #52 on Hilarious out of 5.9 K stories NOTE | this story is a first draft; aka highly unedited.

Nora was finally getting her life back on track. One after another, she faced the challenges life threw her way until, at last, she could live in peace with her family. From inheriting a small pet clinic, Nora has a place to call home with her twin brothers and daughter. However, Declan, a multi-millionaire and the biological father to her child, would soon disrupt her newly found peace. Though their relationship began with a rocky start, they are willing to compromise for the sake of their daughter, Denora. But what Nora doesn't realize is that Declan wants more than just a superficial relationship-he wants them to become a real family. Of course, Nora refuses. She believes what started as a one-night stand could never develop into something more. Declan thinks differently. Because behind the cold exterior Nora hides behind is a woman burning with passion, just waiting to be discovered. But uncovering her secrets will be harder than he initially thought. Not only does he have to worry about Nora's defenses but also her family's. Neither does it help that she never seems to step foot out of her pet clinic, the Animal House. Just what does a man have to do in order to seduce the mother of his child?

*** "*Sobs* I'm so happy to have a character that's exactly like me." - @TakenUsernameSoz. "This story is so normal that it's unique; a breath of fresh air! Gives us normal girls hope, hi hi!" - @LocalSlayer "This book is seriously my inspiration to not be afraid to show who I am." - @Who_Says_Duh "THAT IS SO ME!!!!! IS THIS SOME TYPE OF VOODOO, MAGICAL BOOK OR SOME SHIT?!?!" - @ThePanther10101. *** Let's face it, none of those cliché situations from movies between a guy and a girl ever happen in real life. I'm not going to end up accidentally bumping into my future husband in a café, spilling a latte over him. I'm not going to go up to some random stranger and ask him for directions and he'll become mesmerised by the colour of my eyes and fall in love with me. The window of my bedroom doesn't happen to be situated opposite to that of a 'bad boy neighbour'. I was daydreaming, again. Something I do on a daily basis. Nothing different, right? Well, let's just say I didn't snap out of my little 'trance' until I saw a guy waving frantically at me, smiling. Oh shit, he's hot. He probably thinks I was checking him out. Great, now he's coming over. Kill me. *** • Highest rankings: #1 in Modeling - #1 in Awkward - #3 in Humor.

It started with a comment. Our male and female leads are in the online entertainment circle, he's the biggest author on wattpad and she's the ....most irrelevant writer on the platform. A platform where it is not the physical appearance of the author who is mostly physically unknown that gets you love but the power of your written words. Hannah a little unknown writer who writes mainly "bland" in her roommates words stories is a huge fan of Shang Ye, a very famous and well-loved wattpad writer, author and musical lyricist. For Hannah, it was love at first read. One evening, while conversing with a friend on her wattpad story, his comment suddenly appeared in support of her. Thus began their online chats about romance in books. The more they spoke about romance in books, the more Hannah felt she was beginning to have her own romance in a book...
