Altar Stories

~ Complete ~ She was never meant to marry him. But now, she's bound to him by duty-and he'll never let her forget it. When Valerie steps in for her runaway sister on what was supposed to be the perfect wedding day, she's thrown into a world of wealth, power, and cold-hearted indifference. Her new husband, Noah Sinclair, is a billionaire who wanted her sister-not her. But to save her family from financial ruin, Valerie had no choice but to say "I do." Noah is furious. Valerie isn't the woman he planned to marry, and he's determined to make her pay for it. But as the days pass, sparks fly between them, and the line between hate and desire begins to blur. Trapped in a loveless marriage with a man who can't stand the sight of her, Valerie has to navigate Noah's possessive nature, his hidden past, and the growing tension between them. Will their hatred for each other burn them both to the ground or could it ignite a passion neither of them saw coming? When life gives you lemons, but lemonade isn't your thing, what do you do? You make your own rules even if that means walking down the aisle in your sister's place.

In a world that praises independence, image, and instant gratification, one woman is called to a different path-one of stillness, surrender, and sacred preparation.

This is the sequel to a book I wrote called Apparently I Have Dissociative Identity Disorder so if you haven't already read that then I highly recommend you do before reading this. So in a few chapters through it there are some inappropriate interactions as in how they talk to each other. So please read at your own risk and I'll be sure to warn you'll if there's any before hand so yeah I hope you'll enjoy either way. By the way the story takes place like the next day after Stiles and his dad talk. Just thought I'd let you'll know I don't own teen wolf or the characters all credit goes to their respective owners like Jeff Davis creator of teen wolf. I also don't own any of the gifs or images I use, I get them all from Google searching. Highest Tag: #3 dissociative

Jesse was a kid that stirred off the right path and it cost him. His so called friends used him in some satanic ritual and now he's dead but his body isn't finished yet. It's been possessed by a demon who has no memory of its origin but it only knows what happened to Jesse and the intense pain he went through so now the demon has decided to continue to live in Jesse's body but for one sole purpose: Get revenge for Jesse and make everyone that ever hurted him suffer. Unfortunately, it may not be as easy as it seem when a hot,new jock,who is a high level incubus and one of the eldest son of Satan himself, is always following him around trying to get into his pants.

Social commentary on the world first from the prospective of young man then the rebuttal by an old man. 1. The young man has the prospective that his vision is clear and sharp 20/20 vision while the old man is cloudy and has failing vision. 2. The old man was once a young man and so understands the prospective of youth but now has wisdom and experience.

Altar

It should've been simple: Mitchell, my husband, Ellis, my best friend, like in teen comedies where the girl ends up with her best friend's brother or her brother's best friend or some other variation, but I'm not a teenager, and this isn't a fairytale. Real world decisions are too damn hard. --- In this emotionally-charged tale of love, family and the complexities of relationships, Olivia Bennett a strong-willed entrepreneur rewrites a known tale of a bride jilted on her wedding day, instead leaving her groom Mitchell King at the altar and shocking everyone in attendance. Mitchell's older brother, Ellis King is torn between his loyalty to Mitchell and unraveling the reasons behind Olivia's sudden change in heart. He offers her a listening ear leading to an unexpected night that forever changes the trajectory of their lives. Their connection grows, waxing and waning as hasty decisions and misunderstandings get in the way. As Olivia struggles to keep her head above water despite her inner turmoil and the pressures from her family, she's confronted with a health scare that leaves her with no choice but to face her feelings head on. Ellis and Olivia, now facing the challenges of an impending parenthood, must navigate the complex situation while battling the hurdles of life as well as the consequences of their choices. As their now strained family dynamics threaten to push their relationship to the brink, they remain unshaken and determined to create a loving and stable home for their child, seeking hope and holding on to what they now share amidst the conflicts that surround them

Vivemos em um mundo hoje, onde não há mais a própria essência de feminilidade, não há autenticidade entre o mundo feminino, todas vivem apenas por copiar aquelas que elas almejam ser, porém perdem realmente o valor de ser, e ter o próprio perfume, de ser uma mulher autêntica com sua qualidades e suas virtudes.

Stiles has Dissociative Identity Disorder. He's had it ever since he was drown by his mom when he was only 4 years old and then following his mother's death his dad goes to a bar and drinks and after they get home his father drinks more and verbally attacks the 7 year old Stiles. Wish to know the full description and the full story then continue on with reading I hope you enjoy. A/N: I put this in the author's note as the first chapter but I thought I should put it here too. I just want to make sure that you'll know that this story is not meant to offend anyone. I am in no way, shape or form an expert on dissociative disorders or on dissociative amnesia. But I've had this idea for a while along with others but I wasn't sure about writing it because I didn't want it coming off the wrong way. Just so you know this isn't to offend anyone or to undermine the condition. If it offends you or anything I'm sorry. A/N: also as I mentioned I'm no expert so I'm just going off of what I've read and the rest is just my imagination. It's more likely to be way off in regards of dissociative identity disorder and really for how it works. But I tried my best but I just wanted to cover all my bases as not to give you'll the wrong idea. Either way I hope you enjoy the story My story's highest tag(s) #1 Dissociative,

Jamilla Cuevas sings with the devotion of someone who truly believes in grace, in love, and in redemption. A cherished choir member in their local parish, she sees church not just as a place of worship but as her spiritual refuge. Jul Legazpi, the altar server who moves through rituals with quiet ease, draws admiring eyes... including hers. Their connection is gentle, sacred, almost cinematic. Until shadows begin to stir behind the light. Jul isn't just battling temptation; he's succumbing to it. Rumors whisper through pews like incense, revealing secret rendezvous and stolen affections. Jamilla, caught between denial and painful clarity, finds herself questioning everything she thought was holy about their love. As sacred hymns turn into aching silence, Jamilla must confront the truth: Was Jul ever sincere, or just well-practiced at pretending? And can something kissed by grace ever survive being burned by lies?

Viziunea unuia ....

A young girl is brutally abducted by a bloodthirsty grizzly, forcing a group of scientists to mop up a genetic engineering operation that is out of control, threatening any and all who enter the woods. One question remains: are the animals really dangerous for no reason at all or does their enhanced intelligence simply make them recognize something damning about human nature that needs to be understood before it's too late? Two groups of scientific researchers are sent into the forests where animal attacks are frequent to study what is happening only to find themselves attacked and outsmarted (in part) by the animals themselves. Two environmental action groups find themselves at odds over the fate of the dangerous genetically-enhanced creatures. One group wishes to see the offensive beasts destroyed and the other wants to preserve them at all costs, even at the sacrifice of human life. The two sides find themselves at an impasse, unable to resolve their differences in an amiable way, leading to ever-increasing tension, animosity, kidnapping and murder. Entire forests are quarantined in an attempt to control and contain the beasts but soon holes are discovered in the operation as key players start disappearing in addition to animals eluding their hunters, fighting back and changing the field of battle to their own terms. As the "pro-beast" and "pro-human" sides pursue to their own interests with the unfortunate bears caught in the middle (struggling to establish themselves in a human dominated world), the animals learn more and more to rely on their expanding awareness to survive and thrive in their new world...to evolution-shattering effect.
