"You just have no idea." His voice was thick with restraint. "W-what," I breathed. His gaze flicked to my lips as his thumb stroked again. The calloused pad against my soft flesh sent goosebumps down my arms. His once warm eyes were dark as they lifted and bared into my soul. "What you do to... men." His husky whisper weakened my knees. I almost fell but his other hand settled on my hip, pulling me closer to him. "What you do to me," he added on a breath. The hand on my jaw shifted. His fingers left trails of tingles as he slipped them back slowly, under my earlobe and into my curls. *************************************************** As a young girl, Charlotte Avery's favourite pass time was daydreaming about her Prince Charming: Archer Johnson.

Aurora Harris is nothing like the Disney Princess she was named after, but that doesn't mean he isn't still willing to be her Prince Charming. * * * She's a little rough around the edges, can be seen as harsh, never too emotional, and certainly independent. But these are all things she needs if she's going to be the cut-throat lawyer that she's always wanted to be. Those that know her can see she still has a heart, despite what some people-college frat boys to be specific-might say about her. Wyatt Muse is one of the few who really know her. Being her brother's oldest friend, they practically grew up together under the glowing California sun. His story is what some might call tragic, an orphan boy raised by his grandparents in Hollywood. Only his family is wealthy, something which buys him little empathy from all who know him. Aurora and Wyatt both feel like they've reached a standstill in their lives. Aurora about to be a junior in college, Wyatt on the precipice of graduation. There shouldn't be a question of anything more between them, not when Wyatt respects his best friend, Ryder Harris, too much to do anything reckless. But little do they know, what comes next is something they've both been waiting for all their lives. * * * part II - Aurora & Wyatt * * * All of My Life. Copyright © September 2022.

[COMPLETE] Sorry this may be cringe, it was written very long ago A seemingly ordinary, working college girl meets a cool, undeniably sexy boy with millions of followers at his feet. How will their completely different lives allow, or prevent them from getting what they want? Expect some drama, flirty lines, steamy scenes, funny best friends, and perhaps, an overall epic love connection. ~ Carter came around the corner as his eyes darkened with a predatory gaze. Oh no. He took a step forward, minimalizing the distance with every dominating stride, as I froze in my spot. My breath hitched as his arms finally encircled my waist and his eyes locked with mine. In one swift motion, he flipped my body so my back was pressed against his chest and hands gripped the curve of my hips. "What game are you trying to play at Valerie?" he spoke in a husky voice. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his hot breath fanned against the shell of my ear and his fingertips lit a trail of blazing heat along the length of my arm. Mentally shaking myself from the trance of that which is Carter Bryson, I tilted my head towards him and whispered; "One where you'll lose." Quickly escaping his hold on me before the tension became unbearable, I spun on my heel to face him and slowly backed away towards the exit. "Good luck though." I added mischievously. With a smirk and a devilish glint in his eyes that could even give hell a run for its money, he replied; "I'm not a player though, baby. I'm the gamemaker." ~ ❗️Mature content.
