Chicklits Stories

Aria Bennett has always stayed in the background. She's quiet, focused, and used to being overlooked. Especially by Cole Maddox, her twin brother's best friend and the school's popular quarterback. But everything starts to shift when Cole begins noticing her too. Study sessions turn into something more. Glances linger. And the hoodie she wears starts to feel like a secret only they understand. Their connection feels real. It also feels completely off limits. But what happens when she falls for the one person she's not supposed to fall for? A slow burn on and off the field. *** I'm currently editing some chapters so I've changed the status to ongoing. I've also changed the cover and it's way better now. I'm not gonna unpublish chapters for anyone who's already read it because they're not major changes. I might add a new chapter/s towards the end as I'm thinking of making this into a 3 part series and maybe a spin-off but we'll see how this story does. Thank you for reading!!

This time he did not answer. He stood up straight, smirked, and then turned towards his right. I thought he was finally going to leave, but then, he walked right over to the open space in the counter, came to my side, and leaned down in my face. He slowly slid his left hand in my hair, tucking my locks behind my right ear, and softly placed his right hand on my stomach; making me absolutely freeze in my chair. He smelled really good, with a minty, fresh breath, and an unknown smell that I guessed belonged to him, then moved his lips right on my ear, making it look as if he was kissing it, but then he whispered out the heart-stopping words: "Sweetheart, I am the father of your baby....

"She forgot who she belongs to. She forgot her duty. Tonight, she will remember." Then his teeth sank into my mark. A white-hot bolt of pain tore through me, ripping a cry from my throat. The bond flared violently, not with the warmth of connection but with raw, punishing dominance. He bit down again, harder, his growl vibrating through my bones. I sobbed, clutching at his arm, but he didn't relent. Each strike of his fangs was a reminder, a claim, a warning branded into my flesh. Around us, a few from the pack wept-some openly, some in silence-but none dared step forward. Ezekiel's chest rose and fell in ragged breaths, his teeth bared, my blood streaking his lips. His golden eye burned down at me, furious and unrelenting, his hand still anchoring me upright though my legs trembled. "If this is what it takes," he snarled, his voice carrying across the silent village, "then I will do it every night. Every dawn. Until there is no doubt in you, no hesitation left. I will mark you again and again until your body remembers who you belong to."

I never believed in "Love at first sight" but that all changed when I saw him. She couldn't say exactly when it happened, or how it began. All she knew was that somewhere between a glance and a heartbeat, she started falling. Hard. And now, standing on the edge of something terrifying and beautiful, she could only hope that he was falling too. Because some strangers change everything. "She wasnt exactly sure when it happened. Or even when it started. All she knew for sure was that right here and now, she was falling hard and she could only pray that he was feeling the same way." -Nicholas Sparks (Safe Haven)
