a thing that is or is likely to be wrongly perceived or intercepted by the senses.
"I knew something was different; wrong, about her - I guess I just never expected this..."
A writing about a girl who everyone believes is always happy - almost sickly at that; no one has ever seen her cry so there is no reason for them to think something's wrong. I guess he's the only one who noticed her wearing long sleeves in the summer.
I wrote this story myself therefore please do not copy my ideas or characters. I own the characters and plot of this book and furthermore would stress that you do not copy my ideas. Please and thank you. :-)

The Bad Boy Craves Me✔
"Do I seem like an idiot to you princess?" he sassed taking another agonizingly slow step towards me. "N-no." I stuttered out a blabbering mess, unable to think straight with his sudden closeness. "Do I have to show who you belong to again Bella?" "I-don't know." I whispered out too far gone within the eyes of the silver eyed God like boy standing before me. "Then why do you defy me princess, or is it that you want me to punish you?" I was trapped within his beautiful orbs unable to register the utter madness he just voiced, the word fell off my lips almost breathless begging for him to take me. "Yes." His lips curved to the side showing his God forbidden mischievous smirk of his. I had just now registered the consequences of my stupidity. __________________ This book contains strong languages read at owns risk. UNEDITED.Complete

The Illusions of control
The Illusion of Control: A Description The illusion of control is a psychological phenomenon where individuals believe they have more influence over events and outcomes than they actually do. This cognitive bias often leads people to overestimate their ability to manage situations, particularly in contexts characterized by uncertainty or randomness, such as gambling, investing, or personal relationships. At its core, the illusion of control manifests when individuals attribute successes to their own actions or decisions while downplaying the role of chance or external factors. For example, a gambler might believe that their strategy or intuition can sway the outcome of a game, despite the inherent randomness involved. Similarly, in everyday life, someone may feel that their meticulous planning guarantees a successful event, overlooking the unpredictable variables that can arise. This illusion can provide a comforting sense of agency and empowerment, allowing individuals to navigate life's complexities with a greater sense of confidence. However, it can also lead to overconfidence, reckless decision-making, and frustration when faced with outcomes that defy expectations. Recognizing the limitations of one's control can be crucial for making informed choices and accepting the uncertainties inherent in life. In essence, the illusion of control highlights the delicate balance between our desire for agency and the reality of unpredictability, urging us to reflect on the factors that truly shape our experiences.Complete
