Have you ever felt betrayal so deep it destroys you from the inside out? The most horrible thing about betrayal is that it never comes from an enemy.
Nat feels betrayal on all levels in this emotional rollercoaster. Her life goes from bad to worse and she is just along for the ride.
Then, in a strange twist of fate, a miracle in disguise, Nat meets Skye, Dae, and X. They've felt pain like she has, and they're going to change everything for her.
All she has to do is keep everyone's hearts beating, including her own, which would be easy. Ordinarily it wouldn't even be a task anyone thought about, but under these circumstances, they're anything but ordinary kids.

A Bad Boy's Worst Nightmare (Book 1)
She didn't reply and I felt her finger move across my skin, lower, and almost all the way down my lower back. A shiver coursed through my body, strangely pleasant, and I felt her finger stop. "Your tattoos are beautiful," she said softly. Too close. She was too close. My pulse was hammering and I could feel her cool breath against my skin when she spoke, and my body was warm from having felt her. I couldn't reply. My breathing was light and shaken. I wanted to just turn around and pull her against me, or rather put her against a wall, so I could kiss her and feel her more properly against me. If she touched me again, I wasn't sure that I could keep myself from doing just that. "I'm going to take a shower," I said suddenly in an attempt to escape. She didn't stop me, so I took that opportunity to walk away. When I reached the bathroom, I took a deep breath to steady myself as well as my pulse. Closing the door behind me, I ran a hand through my hair. She truly was a nightmare. A bad boy's worst nightmare was a girl that made him want to be a good one.Complete![I Loved You Blindly [Complete]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/161118475-256-k656767.jpg)
