But what startles me the most, is when he speaks, "Duerme bien, mi niña bonita." And just as I wasn't able to sleep hours ago because of my stupid fear, I let myself fall into a dreamless sleep as his soothing voice travels through my ears. ✿ ✿ ✿ Layla Rivera.

Amalia Romano is sixteen years old now. Still a dancing prodigy, she lands herself a photoshoot for a magazine that'll help her get to where she wants to be. It seems like everything's going perfectly fine. Her grades are booming, she has a nice circle of friends and her family adore her. She's content, happy and finally safe where she is. Nothing can go wrong. That's what she thinks until Archer King, the typical bad boy, enters her life--brown hair so dark it's almost black, almost always obscured by his motorcycle helmet. Tattoos he's definitely not allowed embedded into his skin, and a careless attitude that clashes with hers. After a messy mix up in school, she decides to ignore him.. until she gets assigned to work with him for a project that'll make up a large chunk of her final grade for the year. Not only does she have to put up with him, but she also has to hide him from her family, since he's the exact type she's always been warned away from. She also has to juggle more than one relationship in her already hectic life. [COVER BY @sugarhighstoned]
