🚨UNFINISHED STORY 🚨 With the island divided into Kooks and Pogues, Lia was nothing but another pretty face to Rafe. It all started the second Aurelia Citrus locked eyes with Rafe Cameron. It was then when they both fell under a deep spell, a connection so strong, neither teen could deny. Aurelia Citrus has always just been known as Kiara Carrera's cousin to everyone. An outsider to the people of Pogue Landia. Aurelia always wondered what it would be like to be apart of everything; the Kook world, the parties, the so called "treasure hunts" her cousins friends went on. She wanted to be apart of it all. Aurelia was perceived to be a wallflower by others. What they didn't know is Aurelia was more like a fox than a wallflower. She may seem shy and timid, but she's also smart, sly, deceitful, cunning, clever, tricky, has sharp ears and a deceivingly gorgeous face.  But little miss Lia was always a little too curious for her own good. One day that curiosity lands her alone in the dark, watching Rafe Cameron dump a body. Rafe Cameron has found himself trapped in a cycle of cleaning his fathers messes. For most of his life, he always came last to his father. Finally Rafe has made a break through, that has all changed since Ward declared that he would choose Rafe over Sarah if it came down to it. To keep his place in his fathers heart, to feel the love and appreciation he lacked growing up, Rafe does everything for Ward. Even if it means dumping body after body. But one day that all changes, one day Rafe gets caught by a green eyed, blonde girl. One he'd never seen before.

"I can try" I breathe out as I gulp when his grip tightens "Try me" His hand slides up my throat, his long fingers wrapping tight around my jaw "That's what you really want?" I nod, as I sigh out a shallow yes, and I see every muscle in his body tense, as he wets his lips; hoarsely murmuring his next sentence like its his last try at making me change my mind. "I'm dangerous Abby, this is your last chance, tried to warn you" My stomach twists and knots, as I use every ounce of bravery I have.
