"What are you?" I ask as I take a step closer to her. She doesn't seem threatened by my question or movement because she is still standing in the same position. Then she turns to face me... Before I can stop myself, my left hand traces the side of her face. And I can notice her shift away from me. "Don't hide from me Safiya, please. This doesn't change anything -" "This changes everything." She cuts me off. "...do you see how that works?" She asks, her voice already threatening to break down in tears. And as I contemplate on how to say my next words, she disappears and appears behind the tree I'm resting on. Her breathing makes me shift in my spot as I find her again. "I'm sure there's a way. I'll find a way, I promise." I say between breaths. "Don't promise anything you can't fulfill... I don't expect you to help me." "But I want to. I - I have to, Safiya." She looks up at me after my words are out, like she is trying to read me. Maybe she reads minds, too. .... "...You don't even know me." She begins again and then adds, "And yes, I do read minds." She says, and then looks away to the lake again. "I'm not afraid of you, Safiya. And I do care. Don't you see what you are doing to me?" I say as I rake a hand through my hair, taking quick steps away from her. "I am in love with you..." **** Against her wish, and in order to remain on Earth, Safa has to marry Ashton, the man her parents choose for her, before she turns twenty-two. Backing out would mean saying goodbye to her best friend, Anna, forever. Safa believes all hope is lost until she meets Ian. Ian Trace is cocky, arrogant, and brilliant, on the outside. But there is more to what Safa sees in him. And she knows it. What happens when Safa's mystical world collides with Ian's human world? Will it change what is destined to happen? ** Book is published on Amazon **

Warning‼️This book contains abtruse topics such as Dark love, Abuse, Violence etc. You have been warned. "I thought after 3months of dealing with my anger, when I finally saw you again the desire to skin you alive and add your pretty skin to my collection would have died down." he said camly looking at me. His game on pause for a second. My heart dropped to my feet. My eyes were wandering between him and the items close to him as I blinked the tears away. "Sylas- please. You have to understand-" I felt more scared seeing as his attention was back on the board and not on me. Dying was an exceptional thing for me but death by Sylas I couldn't even begin to imagine. "Sprich nicht."(Don't speak.) His native tongue did something to me. I gulped being unable to look at his eyes even though they were on the chess board. "What did you think was going to happen Mäuschen?" he asked giving me his full attention. Every Fibre in my body wanted to run, my mind was screaming for me to run but I knew that wouldn't get me anywhere, it would just make him more excited. "Lay your hands on the table." he commanded moving the chess board further from him. I now wished he continued with his game. I didn't want all of his attention. I complied to his instruction with trembling hands knowing I had no choice. "Which finger did you use?" he asked casually grabbing the hammer and standing up causing a sob to wreck through me. I harshly bit into my bottom lip to stop the begging that was at the tip of my tongue, I knew he wouldn't listen, he only just wanted his answer but I had no control over my tears. .. She wishes she never met him, but wishes only come true in fairy tales.

Do you know love at first sight? No? Well, you're about to read it. ~ I cupped her cheeks, "did you not like my kiss sweetheart?" "N-No! Wait yes! Sorry, I'm confused," she tried to figure out what to say. I hummed in response, "I guess I'll just have to do it again so you can decide." I captured her plush pouty lips with my own I groaned as they slid against each other. I pulled her tighter while kissing her roughly. She didn't know where to place her hands on my slick skin. I chuckled and wrapped them around my shoulders. Esme struggled to reach all the way up. She kissed me back and I almost lost myself there. Wolf whistles sounded and I grunted. I pulled away slowly to glare at them and Esme hid against me. They didn't react to my glare considering they were used to it. I met the head coach's gaze who nodded to continue the last fifteen minutes of practice. I grunted and kissed her again. Then again and again down her neck. "We'll go out after I change, sweetheart. Take your car?" She nodded quickly and I patted her butt gently. "Good girl." ~ *this is a fast paced romance!
