***tease*** Letting the darkness engulf me as my shattered mind began to wander, I'm met with past wounds that reopened and stung like they were freshly made. My body is moving; I feel tears on my face as I'm walking in this scorching heat. I can see, but my mind is clouded-too gone as I'm reliving my nightmares that refuse to let me go. No, no,no

Matt and Rachel are now married! Come along as they journey through life together God being the center of everything. *Make sure to read book one to get somewhat of an understanding.*

Rachel, a high school graduate, is attending Emory University in hopes of achieving her goals.

What happens when they bump into each other on their way to class? Was it really just an accident? * Highest ranking: # 1 Christian romance *

Nereida, the spirited and headstrong daughter of King Thalor, ruler of the vast and mysterious ocean, has always been fascinated by the world above. Despite her father's warnings, she ventures close to the surface, watching ships sail across the waves, enchanted by the lives of mortals she can never truly touch. But no human captivates her more than Prince Jacaerys Velaryon-the dragon-rider with the blood of Old Valyria, who seems as much a creature of the sea and sky as she is. When a terrible storm wrecks Jacaerys' ship, Nereida defies her kind and rescues him, carrying him to shore. She sings to him-a voice like the tide, both sorrowful and sweet-before vanishing into the sea, leaving only the memory of her touch on his cheek. Jacaerys awakens haunted by the sound of her voice, desperate to find the woman who saved him, even as war looms on the horizon. Desperate to be with him, Nereida makes a dangerous bargain: legs in place of her tail, but at the cost of her voice. Walking among men for the first time, she finds herself in the halls of Dragonstone, where Jacaerys-though drawn to her-does not recognize her as the siren who saved him. Their love grows in stolen moments, yet war approaches, and without her voice, she cannot tell him the truth. But when fate intervenes and she regains her voice, Jacaerys finally sees her for who she truly is-the woman who saved him, the one he has been searching for. Against all odds, he takes her as his wife, binding their fates together in love and war. Yet their happiness is fleeting. The realm is on the brink of chaos, and Jacaerys is called to fight for his mother's throne. As dragons take to the skies and the Dance of the Dragons begins, Nereida is thrust into a world of blood and fire, forced to fight for the love she sacrificed everything for.

"Bella, what are you thinking about?" "Why did you do this to me? I'm supposed to resent you, but one minute you're a monster and the next you're taking me cloud nine." "You were meant to be mine, you know why?" "Why?" I asked softly. "Because no one will ever love you more than I will. We can only be separated by death. Do not think I won't know if you cheat on me; you fucking belong to me no matter what. Do you understand?" What started off as soft reassures turned to berated yelling. I nodded quickly, too afraid to do anything else. This side of him scared me. He grabbed my chin to force me to look at him, "say you belong to me and no fucking body else!" I closed my eyes tight, wishing he'd stop yelling. Val tightened his grip on my face. "Say it, Jay, or I will hurt you." "I'm yours and no one else's." I whispered in a low voice, a sob almost breaking my words. Val's eyes softened and he kissed me on my forehead then hugged me tight. Jaycen/Jay was a normal 18 year old girl. She had a mom, sisters, and best friends. Just like any other girl she had dreams of getting out of her small Mississippi town and live her life. Until a fateful day at school those dreams seemed achievable. Haha, not. Valentino was ruthless, sadistic, and intelligent, with looks that incited sin. Not to forget a mob boss. But that didn't concern Jaycen Ashmore until she found out her mom sold her to Valentino when she was 14. Now 4 years later the mob boss came to collect. Jay couldn't stop him, and now she only has one question, can she love her monster or will she hate him forever? Thank you @Leaving_forever for the cover!

"Yes Papi!" I tease... "Damn Kat, if you keep talking like that I'm gonna have a hard time leaving!" He laughs and comes up behind me, placing both his hands on either side of the sink. I turn coming face-to-face with his chest and dropping the sponge in my hand on the ground. His cologne fills my nose, "Santi... I don't think this a good idea." I manage to breathe out. "Que pasa mamacita? You scared?" He whispers leaning closer. I take a deep breath as his voice sends sparks to my stomach and below. F*ck me, mans was so hot! His arm comes around my waist and he pulls me closer... Cover made by: @Enny101
