Falling in love never scared Maddie Davis until she fell for the one boy she swore to stay away from forever. Season 1 of My Brother's Best Friend ********* Maddie Davis has been in love with her brother's best friend, Cameron Holden, since she was in the sixth grade. They used to be best friends, too, until he got into high school and became a version of himself she didn't even recognize. Everyone said he was a shoo-in for the NFL, and he let it get to his head. Right before high school started, he worked out until he was built like a sculpture, he got rid of his braces, and suddenly the girls fell at his feet. But that was fine because her middle school crush faded. And besides, even if she did think he was hot, Cameron wasn't someone she could go for even if she wanted to. Unless, of course, she found herself wound up with him in a closet during a game of blind seven minutes -- a closet so tiny and secretive that she would finally be able to act on the feelings she's tried so desperately to hide. But what were the odds of that happening? Content warning: This story contains mature sexual content and themes of bullying, sexual assault, violence, and explicit language.

"If you touch me again," Ashley warned, her voice low, "I swear I'll-" "You'll what?" Eric interrupted, stepping closer. She tilted her chin up, glaring. "Stake you."

She knows she will die soon so before she dies, she wants to fulfill her one and only wish - to fall in love. She wants to experience loving someone romantically. But under one strange condition- she wants a man who will not fall in love with her because she doesn't want him to suffer when she's gone. She met Alexander Qinn, the coldhearted and mysterious man. He warns her from the start that he doesn't do love and that he is dangerous. But that made him the perfect man for Abigail. He was exactly the kind of man she was looking for. Their completely different worlds collide, Alexander will start to teach the innocent Abigail about sexual pleasure while Abigail will teach him the joy of doing simple things in life. ... He handed her an egg-shaped, pink vibrator and then returned to his spot. The girl blinked again as she examined, with deep curiosity, the pink egg-shaped thing in her hand. "Don't make me wait. Put it inside," the man ordered and Abi swallowed. Abi had no idea whatsoever as to what this thing was. She had never seen anything like this before. She wanted to ask him what this thing was and what he meant by 'put it inside' but the man was so serious, she was afraid she'd fail the test if she showed him that she didn't even know what this was. "Is this clean?" was what she asked instead and the man half-smiled. "It. Is. Very. Clean." He stressed out every word. Still unsure about what to do, Abi hesitantly looked at him and then in the next second, she put it inside her mouth. ******* ●the cover is not mine. all credit belongs to the artist/owner ******* follow me on instagram @author_kazzenlx

"Her hazel eyes, wide with fear, avoided meeting mine. Her body trembled in delicate, and broken shivers. The curves of her face were hauntingly beautiful, innocence etched into every inch. Her skin was a milky white, smooth except for tiny crisscrosses of scars. I was transfixed. But the sight of her was only a temporary diversion from the torment within. The pulse of her blood was visible in the delicate curve of her neck. My mouth felt heavy on my jaw and as I stepped forward, her pulse quickened." In the Kingdom of Qemond, Sebastian, the enigmatic Vampire King, finds himself entangled in a web of desire and mystery. A chance encounter with a seemingly ordinary human named Elowen unravels a captivating tale of addiction, power, and a blood bond that defies the very fabric of his understanding.

Will Sebastian untangle the questions of Elowen's blood, or will the intoxicating allure of her existence forever alter the course of his immortal life?
