An original poem by yours truly.
I've been told this gives feels, so I do not take responsibility for any tears shed.
The mature rating is for those who get triggered by depression.
Fair warning: it's rather dark

Heavenly Sin (EDITING)
"I could kill you," he grins holding the gun to my temple. "I wouldn't be scared," I reminded him. He trails the gun under my chin lifting it, allowing me to look him in the eyes. "No one would know you were murdered by me," he continues making me smile. "I think I might have a gun kink;" I tell him while holding eye contact. "Fuck," he mutters as he smashes his lip onto mine, •••• The crimson colour pools beneath me as I let him twist the dagger that had been living in my heart since the day we had met. Sometimes we settle for the love we think we deserve only because are parents didn't portray it better therefore we think the bare minimum is over the top. ••••Complete![Dark Sand [Book 1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/201356039-256-k685747.jpg)
Dark Sand [Book 1]
He put his hand on mine, stopping me from signing. "I need you to take this seriously. This isn't a game. This isn't a movie. If you sign this, your body will be mine. No safe words, no romancing, no cuddling. I will use you how I wish. Do things to you, you won't even have seen in porn. I will hurt you, abuse you, make you want me to stop, then beg me to continue. "Finally, I will throw you away when I have had my fill. You can try to escape, in fact, I encourage it, but I will find you and the chase will only excite me more, which won't end well for you. You wanted excitement; here it is. You wanted pleasure, you will get it, but reality isn't always better than fantasy. I can almost guarantee you will regret this." "Are you trying to put me off?" He smiled down at me. "I won't be accused of miss-selling. You either want it or you don't. Well, Faye. What will it be?" ~~~~~~~~ Faye has her sights set on starting a business with her best friend, but a decision from her past makes an appearance at her business pitch to a potential investor and threatens to ruin her plans for the second time. She learnt her lesson signing contracts with this man but Faye is a sucker for adventure and still believes she is strong enough to survive Dominic Sand. Warning - Explicit, abusive content.

I didn't think I'd be on the run at 16, with two friends and murder on our trail. A bounty over my head, and a race against the clock.

Quicksand
'Please,' I begged, tears streaming down my face. Adrik's gaze never wavered. 'Kiss me,' he repeated. My lips trembled, my heart heavy with fear." Tears streamed down my face as I stared at Adrik, his expression unyielding. "'Please,' I begged, my voice trembling. Adrik's gaze never wavered. "'Kiss me, and I'll feed your mother,' he said, his voice devoid of emotion. ************************************************* My dreams had always been clear: excel academically, attend Yale, land a fulfilling job, find love, and build a happy family.

His grip was unyielding, and I found myself trapped in a living hell, where my dreams seemed forever lost.
