Set in the 1800's, colonial  America, this is the story of Mercy Peters, an African American slave woman who gets  sold throughout the south and ends up meeting a white man---that ends up changing her life.

This story will be more raw  than my other stories because I feel so strongly about slavery , and the life of a woman during that time. Enjoy. Might me inappropriate for younger viewers.

Guys, I hope the way the story is written does not offend anybody. I only based the way she speaks on excerpts I read in my AP U.S history class. It gets better later on in the story. Again, I have no rude intentions in this story. I am a black person myself and although I am not African-American, I can relate.

COMPLETED ✔ "Damn she's thick." We both hear. I move to step over towards him. Eureka holds my arm drawing my attention back on her. She gets on her tippy toes. I brace forwards to cut the gap between us. Eureka holds around my neck putting her face to my ear. That's when I hear her whisper. "There's no need for you to get upset. He can only look, and not touch because I'm yours." I stiffen in my jeans. Getting aroused from her boldness. But I take it one step further. Gripping her neck. Detka holds my arm tighter. Lighty moans where only I can hear. I stand up straighter holding her against me by her neck. Looking at the cashier who is still watching her. I cough getting his attention. "Uhmm. Thank you but our groceries won't ring up themselves." He looks at me now. I smirk at him, taking Eureka's hand. "Also it's not nice to stare at what isn't yours." Eureka squeezes my hand. "Behave." She mutters. I ignore her and finish unpacking what's left. What folks are commenting "I love the story it's different from other stories I read.

Fixing Her Broken Pieces

20 parts Complete Mature

'...she was enclosed in her own little shell that I felt I needed to open. I was curious to see her real character, how she acted, her flaws, her peeves, her fears, what she loved, her hobbies, her perfections. I was tempted to know everything about her, yet I didn't even know her name.' _________________________ She thought she was safe in the back of the class, hidden behind her thick kinky hair, and enclosed in her little shell of darkness. She thought that her life would remain a mystery and that all people wouldn't notice her existence. But to her surprise, someone was acknowledging her existence the whole entire time. Ebony Blakeham was the average outcast in any average high school. She was happy with her label, until Luke Herron; the school's most adored boy, decided that it was time to get to know her. This was all a joke to Ebony, until Luke uncovered a deep dark secret that she didn't want to be discovered. After her discovered secret, Luke finds himself wanting to peel away her dark shell that she never wanted to open. He wants to be the positivity in her life no matter how much she didn't want it. He wants to fix her broken pieces. _____________________ Most Impressive Ranks in 1K+: #652 in life #80 in young #214 in bwwm STILL OCCASIONALLY EDITING TO MAKE THE STORY BETTER.
