Brilliant PhD student Cecilia Ambrosia finds herself on the cusp of a major scientific breakthrough when she attracts the attention of the shady corporation BlackStone. Suddenly thrown into a deadly game, she is forced into an alliance with Atlas, the man sent to keep her in check. As she finds herself in increasing danger, she begins to question who, if anyone, she can trust. As her world closes in around her, she will need to decide: destroy humanity's greatest discovery or fight back and risk it all. "Oh yes, I remember now, when you came to threaten me," she remarked. He stalked towards her, a coy smile tugging at his lips. "That wasn't a threat sweetheart, trust me, you'll know if I threaten you." His husky voice sent a shiver down her spine. Another suppression. She thought distractedly looking at his mouth. He leaned closer, taking her glace as an invitation. "Then may I ask what exactly you do call that?" "It's a little bit sad that you even have to ask that?" He replied, looking at her lips. Her confidence waned as his insinuations became more direct. "Oh my mistake, you must get slapped a lot if that's your method of flirting." She squared her shoulder not willing to back down. He leaned in whispering in her ear, "Do you have a habit of slapping people when you don't know how to react?" She felt her cheeks heat as her mind raced to think of a response. "You want to know something interesting?" He asked, his lips grazing her ear. "I doubt you know anything interesting." She managed to say through the sound of her own heart beating. He chuckled, pulling back to look into her eyes, a mischievous glint lighting in his eyes. "I find it very interesting. That you haven't asked me to let you go." Her heart leapt at the insulation, immediately pushing on his chest. "Hah!" She scoffed, simultaneously insulted and embarrassed.

Prince Christopher and Anne quickly devise a plan, "royally fail as a couple so much, that even a blind person could see they would never work as King and Queen". The betrothed couple must walk a fine line of convincing the royal court and their parents they are not right for each other and being a royal couple for the people, to not instil fear for their nation's future leaders and give the rebellion brewing amongst the seven lands, fuel to their fire that is a threat to the monarchy. With royal dates specifically designed to make Princess Anne and Prince Christopher fall in love, expensive ball gowns at every life event no matter how small, engagement parties, wedding plans for a ceremony destined to fail, and a royal ball.

Set in a dystopian future where humans are forced to return to their Victorian Era ways to stop carbon emissions from rising and all the technological advancements made in the past are now drowned in seawater.

Being the new girl was never fun. Katherine was constantly moving around. Other than that her life was pretty boring. Until bad boy Cole Alexander has his eyes on her. "I'm not yours and I'll never be yours." I snap at him. He licks his lips slowly staring at mine. "If you think for a minute I'm going to let you leave with him your wrong." He says casually walking towards me. "It's not your choice who I go out with." I continue. I bump into a wall and he takes the opportunity to cage me in with his arms. He lowers his head to my ear, I shiver at his hot breath fanning me. "You can't deny the way I make you feel. I know you love when I bite your soft skin." He whispers. I take in a sharp breath when Cole kisses my neck. Trailing along my collar bone to my favorite spot. And before You know it he has me completely consumed by him. THIS IS A SHORT STORY!!!!! Also it's very unrealistic and cliche, if you don't like it, it's fine. It's not for everyone. Mature Scenes and Bad Language
