Wren and Kenna hated each other in high school. Now mature-ish adults, they still hate each other. The problem? They're engaged. A year away from marriage, according to two of the most powerful people in the world: their parents. ***** Wren Castile and Kenna Gold are engaged...because their parents say so (and no, they're not kidding). Wren has one year to marry her former nemesis, or else. The fact that Kenna emulated her infamously anti-gay father throughout high school seems to be irrelevant--even to Kenna herself. Suddenly Wren and the girl she never wanted to see again are on the same (bickering) side as they face mandatory dates, disastrous family get-togethers, and their unhappy past. Wren is filled with mistrust, but to protect her heart, she might just have to sit back and let it lead the way.

"Wishes and dreams, they all come true. It just seem to happen when we least expect it." Nicole went to a simple trip to Greece, but everything goes into a whole other turn when she is guided by a large deer towards another world.

"When will I get my reward?" I ask all of a sudden way too excited at the thought of being rewarded by this beautiful woman. "When I'm satisfied, of course." She says sweetly before taking two steps to cover the distance between us. "Unless you think you deserve to get a little taste now?" My throat closes up and my heart starts beating triple the speed. When her laughter fills the room, it doesn't make it any easier to breathe because of how close she is standing next to me, flirting so openly! "I uh-" I close my mouth so I don't embarrass myself. "I do." "You do what, mmm?" She asks with her eyes trained on my lips. "I deserve a little taste now." The words fall from my lips so easily. "Mmhmm." She turns her back and walks towards the refrigerator. A second later, she returns with a single strawberry in one hand and her glass of wine in the other. I watch quietly, even though I'm excited as hell, as chocolate starts to fall freely from the fountain like a waterfall! Now I'm really excited! Amahle sips from her glass and then sits it to the side. Then she rinses the strawberry off before reaching out and covering it with chocolate. I thought if anything, when she gave me the small piece of fruit, she would hand it over on a napkin or with a fork. In no way was I prepared for her to take one step closer, damn near in between my thighs, where she nodded at my parted lips. Without needing further instruction, I open my mouth as my stomach quivers with nerves. "Good girl." She praises softly and covers every inch of my skin in burning shivers. Between her words and the sweet, rich tasting chocolate covered fruit, I have to close my eyes and pray not to let out a moan, no matter how small or soft it may be. ‼️Uh-ma-leh‼️

And one teacher, and their relentless assignments, bring them closer together. *** "You missed me?" I ask as if it's such a shock because to me it is. I'm a nobody. "Hm." She hums with a nod, "I didn't really know how to ask you if you wanted to hang out again, and well, thanks to my fucked up life, here we are, I found an excuse." "You do realise you can just ask me?" I'm a hypocrite, I couldn't do it either. "I know, but honestly, you kind of intimidate me and I just kinda thought maybe just a small part of you thought it was just about the projects."

"Well, Mia...come here," She ordered, tilting her head as she spoke to me. Mindlessly, I took a few steps towards her and then stopped, deciding that we were close enough. She took one large step towards me, almost completely closing the gap between us as she towered over me in her heels. She wrapped her arms around my waist and pulled me closer, so our fronts were now pressed together. She leaned down to my ear and asked, "Do you want me to take care of you or not?" "Yes," I whispered, and with that she leaned down to press our lips together, kissing me as her tongue slipped past my lips. My arms moved around her neck as I pulled her further down into me, deepening the kiss. She moved me until my back was pressed up against the sink. *** Mia is entering her last year of school when she hooks up with a stranger one fateful evening, who ends up being involved in her life in more ways than one.
