"3 days more, I'll b back, luv. We'll talk then." I'd been reading his text message over and over again. But it had been almost two weeks now and I hadn't heard back from him. The waiting time was starting to feel like an eternity, and it's now making me wonder... Will he really come back to me? I missed him terribly! Unspoken words. Soundless tears. Selfish emotions. Pride. And the feelings I should have recognized. These were lessons I used to ignore. Until Cliff came into my life. Bit by bit, he changed something within me. Like a gentle rainfall, he turned my harsh, uncaring winter into a nurturing, blossoming spring. If you have time to spare, please, sit awhile with me. Let me tell you about how I learned the greatest, most unforgettable lesson of my life. This is a novel inspired by a true story about the biggest lesson one has ever learned from love.

She frowned at him, creating a slight crease between her eyebrows that was so unlike the rest of her flawless and perfect appearance. "Am I tempting you?" "No." His mind screamed, yes! She batted her eyelashes at him, her violet blue eyes bright. "Do I have to beg?" she asked with a pouty lower lip. *** Teagan Miller: He was known as a no-good ladies' man who lived for the moment.

Copyrighted 2018 **This is the rewritten version of His Flower. I hope you enjoy!** There was only one word to describe my life: Hell. It was all I had ever known, the only thing I was used to. I didn't want it any other way. Why the fuck couldn't she see that? -&- Having a normal childhood was completely foreign to the two polar opposites Rosalyn Summers and Rex Turner. Both grew up in the closest thing they knew to Hell, each with terrible problems of their own. Perhaps, that is why they were so drawn to each other. Rose might have been that typical shy, quiet girl roaming the school's halls, no friends to speak of and no genuine interest in learning, but even she couldn't deny that attraction towards the school's resident 'bad boy'. The one no one else dared speak to. Rex's anger issues always got the best of him, even when that idiot girl came tumbling into his life. She just wouldn't leave him the fuck alone. No matter how much he liked it. He could convince himself he wasn't good for her as much as he wanted. It didn't matter, she wouldn't let him be and he would soon refuse to let her go. Completely oblivious to her own darkness raging beneath the surface. *WARNING: This story has quite a few very possessive and controlling men. If that kind of thing isn't for you, this book definitely won't be.** There is also talk of anxiety, panic attacks, and some drug-use mentions. ALSO this story will have a LOT of chapters! It's filled with triggers (mentioned above), but also a bunch of cute scenes, fluff moments, adoring toe-curling moments, and a plot you won't see coming!

He was staring at me with an expression of pure hatred. I stared back. I must admit, even with such a nasty look on his face, he was rather attractive. His powerful arms were crossed, the unzipped leather jacket tight around the biceps. I could just make out dark tattoos poking out of the white collar of his uniform, brushing against his sharp jawline. His dark brown hair, do dark it was nearly black, looked as if he had sat in front of the mirror styling it, or perhaps he had just got out of bed. Still, as I turned to sit, I couldn't help but feel as if those deep, storm blue eyes were still watching me, burning a hole in my back. I didn't know his name, but the look he gave me made me feel as if he knew everything, and I mean everything about me. Word count: 90,000 warnings: mature themes and violence
