"Achab no dejaba nunca de tener presente en su espíritu la captura de Moby Dick. Estaba dispuesto a sacrificar todos los intereses humanos a esta pasión".
El capitán Achab tiene una obsesión que domina su vida: vencer a la enorme ballena blanca que le arrebató su pierna, cuya leyenda negra se forjó con la muerte de los balleneros que intentaron darle caza. Ismael, un joven maestro de escuela, se enrola junto con un arponero polinesio con el que traba amistad llamado Queequeg en el Pequod, un barco ballenero que parte de Massachussets, gobernado por Achab.
A bordo del Pequod, Ismael se encuentra con una extraña tripulación de razas y procedencias muy variadas, entre la que hay arponeros tan aguerridos como un caníbal, un piel roja o un africano salvaje. Bajo la dirección del capitán Achab, el Pequod y sus marineros ponen rumbo a alta mar, al encuentro de la gran ballena blanca.

The CEO's Shy Girl (Editing)
"Ms. Peterson, did you attend a club Friday night? " Mr. Shaw said causally as he focused his eyes on his twirling pen. "No" I said trying not to show that I was lying. But then again people always think I'm lying. "Well I just ask because when I went to a club Friday night...there was a girl who looked an awful lot like, you dancing on one of the tables at a bar with a bra on as a top" he said focusing his narrowing eyes on me now. " Is that question really appropriate to ask in the work place sir?" I said confused. "I'm not sure? Is it Ms. Peterson?" he said a little sarcastically. "Well... since you are not sure, I will just be on the safe side and not answer it sir" I said hoping to get a positive response for what I just said. "Very well. Get out now" he said coldly and I walked out of the office with my next assignment. Why didn't God answer my prayer about Mr. Shaw getting attacked by a bear? I thought to myself when i had close the door behind me. (Written September 22 2017 Has mature language and I might write another part for the steamy scenes and this is my first book so take it easy.

Tom And Bill Kaulitz - ONE SHOTS
丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰 DISCONTINUED! Reason: I am so, sorry that I won't complete this, because I'm pretty much not sure if I can still keep-up, by making more chapters. And I'm really hoping that you guys understand that I'm pretty busy around these times of the year. And a lot has been happening and I'm not the type of person who can get things together even if I try. I know this reason is pretty stupid and because, of that I won't be writing. But, maybe I will write when I feel like I want to and if I have the time. Soo, yeah. Hope you guys understand! LOVE YOU ALL! 丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰 I'm really thankful for the people who read this book(Idk what to call it). And we are almost reaching 10k reads. OMG, when I made this book I didn't really think that it would get this far, and I can't even make up the words on how thankful I am to all of you! I love you guys so much! 丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰丰 This book is filled with smut or one shots based on Tom and Bill Kaulitz(just incase you dont know, they are twins and part of a German band called Tokio Hotel). And is a y/n story. 👩🍳👩🍳👩🍳 Please keep in mind that this is only a fanfic story and that most of the things I put here are absolutely NOT TRUE, and YES I know it's cringy and I would say it's true. But anyways ENJOY. 😍🤞💋 Just so you know I am NOT good with punctuation marks because I failed that in school so if my punctuation mark(s) looks off or weird you'll already know. 😃👍👍👍Complete

"You are an expendable. You are not expected to return." ______________________________ (⚠️SPOILERS⚠️) Urbanshade never left room for making friends or having much time for love. Even so, you confided in a coworker and best friend, Milo. The two of you suffered in the abandoned facilities, but at least you suffered together. And then you met him. Tall, cold, and not all human. You weren't too afraid. Not like the other expendables. You didn't seem disgusted either. Just a quiet cautiousness. That made your presence more tolerable to him. Perhaps even fond of it, but the day he admited such as the day the world ended. And then you returned, again and again. The two of you grew closer than he ever thought possible. Now, the two of you spend your time exploring the Blacksite and digging up more hatchets Urbanshade thought they'd buried too deep to be found. What else will the two of you find?

The Sun And The Moon ||| Encanto
The Madrigal's are a famed family that reside within Encanto. They were given a gift, a miracle, and that miracle is passed down through many generations. Their purpose is to serve, help, and protect the citizens of their village. Abuela Alma is the matriarch of the household. Her husband, Abuelo Pedro, sacrificed himself to give her the miracle. This left Abuela to raise 3 beautiful children and lead a village. When these three children turned five, it was their turn to receive the miracle. Each was given a magical gift that would aid them in serving the village. Pepa was given the ability to control the weather with her emotions, Julieta was given the power to heal through food, and Bruno was given the power to see into the future. But as kids do, they grew up. Each child grew into an adult and with some pressure from Abuela, they began looking for partners. Pepa married her childhood friend, Félix, and it was the beginning of Bruno's bad reputation. Julieta, on the other hand, married a clumsy man named Augustin. After their marriages, both women were pregnant soon. And Abuela was delighted to have more magical blessings on the way. Delores and Isabela were born first. The very first grandchildren to the Madrigal family. But between their birth and when they received their powers, Bruno's reputation continued to deteriorate.

The King's Executioner | Mafia Dark Romance | Book 2
[⚠️✅] Book 2️⃣- THE CARTEL CHRONICLES. Please read 'The King Killer', if you've landed here first. "You'd know a lot about turning a woman into a nun, wouldn't you, Al?" I smiled at Alejandro's menacing stare. "Is your little thing still functional or that's just an appendage for show?" "What the fuck did you say?" Over my shoulder, I answered. "I said, is your dick just for decoration? Seems like it's not just your tiny dick but also your ears that need a good surgery to function." ~ One wrong rivalry and Sofia Salazar's life was toppled. Kidnapped, she suffered for the sins of her brother. When the Moralez family took the chirpy girl under their wing, she assumed her upside down life to settle. Little to her knowledge, it was only the beginning of the domino effect induced by the man - her husband. Alejandro Moralez, the Los Zetas cartel's executioner had always valued family and respected his elder brother. When asked to marry for business, with reluctance, he agreed. But when a series of revelations jolts his life, Alejandro found himself at the precipice of loyalty, revenge, love and lust. For newly married couple, Sofia and Alejandro, life proved to be less of a honeymoon trip and more of an inferno staycation. ⚠️ Rated mature for violence and sexual content. Reader's discretion advised.Complete
Vengeance
[complete; editing, ROUGH draft] "Say something in Spanish." I snorted, "Like what?" "I don't know... I just want to hear you speak it." Our gaze stayed on each other for more than it should've. But I couldn't look away. Her hair laid out behind her on the pillow, her hands under her cheek and her head nearly under my arm. I inhaled, "Puede que me esté enamorando de alguien que nunca me amará." She parted her lips and for a second I thought she understood me, my heart skipped a beat until she spoke, "And what does that mean?" "It means, this woman beside me asks too many questions," I lied. ***** Oakley Marrero has been nothing but a rebel since witnessing her parent's murder at the age of eight. Leaving everything behind ten years later, she settled down in New York City in hopes to track down the killers that have never been found. While on her mission, she had what she thought was a one-night stand with August Creed. But when she collides with him while just mere seconds away from catching her parents killer - getting away yet again - the two find out they have more in common than just sexual attraction. ***** -Does not portray IRL Mafia's- Start date: May 22nd, 2021 End date: Nov 18th, 2021 Status: Complete Achievements: 50k reads- July 22nd, 2021 2k votes- Aug 13th, 2021 100k reads- Sept 16th, 2021 3k votes- Sept 24, 2021 4K votes- Dec 10, 2021 150k reads- Dec 10, 2021 200k reads- Dec 18, 2021Complete
LIFE WITH YOU
"Get in." A deep voice inside the car said. That made me back away even more. I was not about to get in a car with a total stranger. "Listen, I don't have any money, nor am I a prostitute, so please leave me alone." I said in a soft voice but loud enough for the driver to hear. Suddenly the driver's door open and someone exited the car, and stood directly at the car door. On closer inspection I noticed that the driver was the stranger from the park. "Get in." He repeated. "I'm ok here. Thank you though." He looked at me, almost as if he could see right through me. "Get in." He pissed me off then. "I said I'm fine here. You can leave now." As soon as those words left my mouth he was at my side gripping my wrist and pulling me towards his car. He then proceeded to push me inside the car as gently as he could while I violently hit him with my free hands. "Let me go you weirdo!" Ashley is a Caribbean born New Yorker with good friends, family and a good job. She lived what most people would call a regular life until she met a mysterious suit wearing handsome gentleman that spoke as little as possible to her. What changes will this stranger bring to her life? Chapter 17 or 18 may or may not be private. If it is, you'll have to follow me to read it.Complete
