an·dro·pho·bia | \ ˌan-drə-ˈfō-bē-ə noun : an abnormal dread of men : repugnance to the male sex Thea is the definition of sweetness. Whether it be stopping to talk to a homeless person in the streets or volunteering overtime at her local charity shop, she feels the need to give and not take. Although that comes with disadvantages of its own, the effects of a strange phobia of hers only make her life more difficult: her growing fear of men. And when she meets the most terrifying of them all, she is forced to ultimately confront her fear. In the form of a murderous member of the mafia by the name of Synn, that same uncontrollable terror that she experiences in the presence of a man only sparks an interest in him. But unbeknownst to Synn, a man who revels at the tremor of his enemies, he cannot figure out why her wide, teary eyes do not give him the same pleasure. Why does that same terror-stricken look on Thea's face only make his heart clench with pain instead of content? #1 in Hot #1 in Fear #1 in Scared #1 in Sweet #1 in Kind #3 in Cute #5 in Love Cover done by @kimtherespeopledying

Aria had always been the type to run away from her problems. She ran away from her family, from the police, and from the clutches of the most despicable criminals in the world. It wasn't always easy; her body's need for the chase sometimes earning her more trouble, but somehow-luck clearly on her side-she pushed through to keep her pulse going, even to her own disappointment. And that was the thing about her lucky streak. She demanded it be tested, over and over. When Aria leads a chase away from a man determined to take her life as his own, rather than just take it, everything she thought she knew about herself, about her demons, spins like bullets in a chamber. She crashes into the arms of Italy's most infamous, and he's just as dangerous and cold-hearted as the men she's used to running from, but he's determined to make her live. Live for him. It isn't long before the darkness sinks in, claiming her with a love that pushes and punishes her, challenging her mind and body, all while asking her one question: What does she want to live for? This could be the thing she should have been running from all along. • • • • • [ WARNING INSIDE. PLEASE READ. ] TWISTED © 2020 ANGELING_ || All Rights Reserved.

|COMPLETE| 18+ I was a struggling mother with a pretty bleak outlook on life. I was jaded. Cynical. And always dripping in sarcasm. Men were full of shit. There were three things men always wanted. Money. Sex. Control. And you know what? I'm never wrong. Meet Alexander Xavier Tipton, a man made of millions. A collector of sorts. A man who didn't mind a pretty face. A man who was used to getting everything he desired. A narcissistic asshole. In the end, I fell. I fell hard. I had no idea it was just the beginning of a never-ending nightmare and ultimately my demise. How? I thought you'd never ask. #1 New Adult #713 Thriller FIRST DRAFT © 2016 JALISSA PASTORIUS ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

Bliss \ˈblis\ (n) : Complete Happiness Isis wasn't a normal 17 year old girl who felt as though she never had a place in the world. The introverted teenager wasn't always happy and constantly wonders about her surroundings. While coming home from work at night, she was kidnaped and soon learned that it was Rakim Mayers. Will Rakim be the bliss that she need or will he be the kidnapper that she fears?

I was just minding my own business, painting the walls outside the high school I went to, with spray paint. Okay maybe it's called graffiti, but I don't care. Either way, the cops came at the worst time, and I did what any rational person would do. I ran to the parking lot, broke into the only car in the lot, and sped out of there as fast as I could. Only problem was, I didn't realize there was someone sleeping in the back seat. • Damien Asher is the most feared Gang Leader to the Asher Noir Gang, so when he wakes up to someone driving his car like a madman, he was to kill them. That's until he notices it's a beautiful girl covered in paint, well that and the fact the cops are currently chasing them. So he does what he thinks is best; he kidnaps the girl who kidnapped him first.

I look down at the frail frame of the girl. I unlatched her cage and nudged her with my foot. It seems cruel, but the other trainers would have done much worse to see her ignoring their commands to rise. "Wake up, you're being moved," I say to her, crouching down and shaking her. She lies unmoving and a heaviness settles in my chest. I move her hair from her face and press my fingers to her neck, trying to find a pulse. I purse my lips, feeling the faint beating of her weak heart. I look at the girl, watching her struggle to push air in and out of her lungs. I can tell she is sick. Do I put her in the truck with the others, or take her to the doctor? The truth is, nothing good awaits her in the truck. The only question is if it is crueler to go put her with the others, unconscious and barely holding on, or to take her to the doctor. I feel sick just thinking about it. She either dies here, or will wish she would have. I can't turn a blind eye to her though, I can't stand and watch as the life leaves her. Perhaps she will be thankful for me saving her life. ---- Hazel. She's a pretty little thing, far too precious and fragile for the life she was born into. Having lived most of her life in a training facility, she knows little of the beauty of the world or the people in it. A punishment gone bad, forever mares her, leaving her crippled, undesirable. Axel. He's an average man with an abnormal size. Being a Trainer, he is expected to be cold and cruel, someone he is not. It pays him money though, so perhaps living up to that expectation isn't that bad? When confronted with a choice he finally has to choose who he wants to be. Will he live up to others expectations? Or will he choose what may not be easiest, but what is right?
