"You want it slow or fast, baby?" He whispered in her ear. "It doesn't matter," Valentina answered. Deontae smirked as he gave her just what she needed. Valentina started throwing her ass back as Deontae thrusted in and out of her. It wasn't too fast but it wasn't too slow either. It was the perfect pace. "This mine, right?" He asked as he smacked her ass. Would you believe me if I told you they were best friends and Deontae's been having Wet Dreams about Valentina? But this wasn't a dream, this time it was real. Read to find out how he told her about these dreams he's been having. Self-Publishing ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Any unauthorized reprint or use of the material is prohibited.

Her cousin and friends have something else in mind. Megan, Jacob, and D'Various coax her into traveling to Atlanta, Georgia to attend their first "Freaknik festival." Jacob and D'Various see it as an opportunity to put their music out there -- while Megan looks for any and every chance to party and mingle. Not a musician nor a hardcore party girl, Kimberly reluctantly agrees, intending to meet new people. During the trip, buried feelings surface through shared glances and seeking proximity to the other. But the party comes to an abrupt end when a fight breaks out. The four must find their way home before the news of the attack reaches Dahlonega and somehow continue with their lives where they left off. ---- Content Warning: This story features depictions of intimacy and violence. The sexual scenes aren't written in vulgar detail, but don't "fade to black." Please discontinue reading if any of this makes you uncomfortable.

What if I don't want to be a hero, save your damn selves!! Has anyone ever asked a hero if they even like saving people? What if Wolverine just wanted to binge-watch Stranger Things, and not be the stranger thing? Imagine being the fastest man alive, only to arrive seconds too late to save a life. What if being a hero wasn't in their five-year plan? Who opts into risking their life and the lives of the people who mean the most to them- for people who mean the least? Why do we demand those who are faster, stronger, or have unique abilities to bear the burden of life and death? Who among us, in their right mind, would willingly surrender their own freedom simply because they possess the power to do so?. What if heroes just wanted to live their lives, the way they planned or unplanned it. What the Author hopes? If only for one second or even just a small inkling. I somehow convinced you that the things I write about could exist. Then I accomplished my goal as a dope writer. ✍🏽 Blood Roots - "Just be glad I choose forgiveness.
