Riley and the Boxers | ✔️
Imagine losing your family. You would be devastated, heartbroken and empty, as if you've lost everything in your life, right? Well that was exactly what happened to Riley Coleman... Except she literally lost everything. After her parents died in a deadly shipwreck, her rented house was given back to the owners and she was forced to move out. By law, a sixteen year old girl couldn't live individually, right? She still had school to finish, things to learn and a future to plan. So she was permitted to live with her closest relative, Aunt Elva. But what if Riley's Aunt had always thought Riley was a male? In fact, the only reason why Elva accepted her with grace was in hope that Riley would become a boxing champion, just like the seven other boys living in her mansion of a house - or should I say, Boxing Training Institute? So when Elva's assistant found out Riley is, as a matter of fact, a female, he bent down onto his knees and begged her to save the company's name by disguising herself as a boy. But little did Riley know that every single boy had a mysterious secret yet to be revealed. Nevertheless, what's a girl gotta do? Man up of course! And let the chaos begin. ~ © COPYRIGHT NavyCoffee on Wattpad. All rights reserved.Complete
The Silver Fighter | ✓
"I already killed your mother, Cam." As the words left my enemy's mouth like a mocking sneer, I growled under my breath at the mention of my old name. Memories started to boil up that I had been wanting to squash deep into my heart. Bad memories. "As you can guess, I'm here to finish the job." He continued with that ever-present sinister smirk on his face. And in that moment, a sudden burst of confidence just appeared within me. Or blatant stupidity. 'I'll take either one.' I silently admitted to myself. I rolled my eyes at his so-called 'threat', not really intimidated in the least. "Yeah, like that went so well the first time. The first time, you fucked up enough to get caught by the police." I pointed out. "The second time, your grown-ass men got their asses handed to them by two teenagers." I snorted at him. "Your odds aren't looking too good here, Berti." ~•~ Losing her father? Lovely. Getting in a car accident with her aunt, uncle, and cousin and being the sole survivor? Fantastic. Losing her mother because a deranged psychopath holds a grudge even better than The Grinch? Amazing. Being ostracized from her own family save from her paternal grandparents, and getting the blame for her mother's death? Cherry on top of the cake. Having to make sure three idiotic twats don't get themselves killed because they couldn't mind their own bloody business? Bloody hell, that's an entire ice cream cake with ten pounds of gummy bears. ~•~ Join Grace Stanton as she faces her demons and the demons of her past all while trying not to commit murder against her three new friends.
