Author's Note: This is the short-story that I used to apply to the Governor's School for the Arts, and thus far it has been very well received.
This is a romance, but not the conventional sort. There are no steamy moments or sweet nothings, but it is a romance, nonetheless.
Lucasta has made innumerable sacrifices to earn the love of a man who doesn't know she exists. One night she decides to make one more.

Laced By Love
It's no new tale, two high school students falling in love. How cliche? What if you took the concept of high school lovers, and threw in the fact that the boyfriend was actually another species in disguise with his heart on his sleeve? Things really heated up now, didn't they? Join Boston, a creature referred to as a lacey, as he tries to not only explore the new feeling of love, but also explore his past traumas and learn how to move past it all.Concluída
Gem in the Rough
"Did you know that you just pull me in? I can't stop thinking about you." Kieran's eyes are shut, his head against the back of the couch, while making his confession. I guess he had moved in the few moments I'd been in my own thoughts. "Is that a bad thing? I feel it too." He opens one eye and grins. "No, I don't think so. I just don't know if I'm ready." "Ready?" It's silent for a few moments before I feel his warm, rough palm on my bare thigh. It's like all my senses are ignited when he touches me. All I can feel is his hand, all I can smell is his beautiful manly scent, and all I can see is him in front of me, the rest of the world invisible. "Is it okay that I'm touching you?" I let out a deep breath and lean closer, whispering near his ear. "Is it okay that I want you to touch me more?" Kieran's eyes open, his blazing blues stare into my dark brown ones, a slight growl coming from his throat. That growl will be the death of me. -- Gemma is a junior in college who is focused on work and school. There's no time for anything else according to her father and it begins to weigh on her heavily. Another thing that's heavy is Gemma's weight. Her body image has improved since going to therapy but just like anyone else, her insecurities are still there. Gemma is confident, yet shy; organized yet anxious. She's the epitome of an overweight college student with daddy issues. And mommy issues. Just issues in general. - Kieran is a junior in college who is focused on surviving. There's alcohol, sex, and anything else that can keep him out of his own head. Kieran is from a small town that holds a dark part of his past and he's doing anything he can to forget. He is moody, goofy, and mysterious. He's also so much more than anyone thinks. When Gemma and Kieran cross paths, it's a twist of fate that will change their lives forever. Join them on their journey to self-discovery and finding love for themselves, and for one another.Concluída

Mr. Devil
-{Published Interactive Story on Chapters! }- <3 {#6 in Romance --- 22/02/17} Romance / Fantasy ︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵ "You look happy." he smiles, his dark eyes darting between my own. "I am." I grab his shirt and pull him towards me for a long, passionate kiss. A kiss that made every other kiss up to this point irrelevant. In this moment, it stopped. Everything. The worries, the stress, the doubt; the world stopped moving. And in this moment, with every kiss he came back to claim from my lips, with every tighter tug I made at his silky hair, wanting him closer to me, I knew I'd never get enough of him. ︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵︵‿︵‿ Mikara Richards isn't your normal girl. She's had a rough childhood. And rough is an understatement for her teen years. But when she's stuck with an abusive asshole and a mysterious man comes to the rescue, she makes a deal with him to set herself free. But we all have secrets, don't we? What happens when she starts to fall for a man who has more of a "dark side" than your average mystery guy? Someone whose raw desire is enough to tear a person apart. Someone the very thought of being without hurts to imagine. Someone who's so simple, but so complex. Someone whose fiery soul is as red hot as their burning passion...

His Muse ✓
Nic was almost positive he had never encountered a more perfect, beautiful, inspiring stranger before this sudden walk-by. They had the sort of presence that knocked the air out of him, the words out of his mouth, and so... he never learned the name of said stranger. But when his accidental "WANTED" signs catch the notice of his peers, he's steered in the direction that's closer fit to the path his future muse leads. Kieran is... a mystery. Maybe it's his aloofness that makes him so broodingly calm. Whatever the case, Nic becomes determined to draw that idiot's face into oblivion, even if there's little chance of a romance happening between them. But sometimes showing appreciation for the person you love happens to be from afar, and with a pencil and paper in hand.Concluída
