WARNING: My book is literally filled with mistakes. It's everywhere, I am fixing it, even if it is at a slow pace. So please bear with me until all of this is fixed. BOOK ONE IN THE OBSSESSION & POSSESSION SERIES. Winner of the Blue Awards. He grabbed a fistful of my hair tightly and whispered in a serious tone, "Whether I love you or not, you're mine until I say otherwise." I glared at him. "I am not yours. If you think that I will let you use me then you're mistaken." "I'm not using you Gemma. I'm just telling you that you are mine whether we are together or not in the best way possible. You know that you want me and only me, you yearn for me, your body yearns for me. You need me Gemma. If you leave now, you know you'll come back to me. You can't stay away Princess." He wrapped one hand around my waist and pulled me flush against him. He blew in my ear and I shivered. "Stop touching me," I moaned. His free hand cupped my right breast and I moaned at the feeling of his hand on me. "I couldn't stop even if I wanted to, " He mumbled. My eyebrows furrowed. "What's that suppose to mean? " "I want you and only you Gemma, you better start believing that." He's the definition of bad, She's the complete opposite. He despises love, She yearns for it. He wants her body; he craves it, She wants his heart, she needs his love. Will he ever love her? Will she ever capture his heart? He's the Bad Boy, She's the Good Girl. His Drug, His OBSESSION.

Her brows furrowed. "You look like you have something specific you wanna ask me." The tips of Liam's ears turned red at Emma's very accurate observation. "I, uh... I usually just bullshit my way through projects, so I have no idea what the hell I'm doing." The corners of Emma's lips formed a small smile. Liam arched his brow. "What are you smiling at?" Her smile widened. "Nothing." Ever since Emma started going to Silver Creek High, she's been bullied over her discolored eyes. It all started when a boy brought attention to her in biology class one day, laughing at her and calling her a "freak" while the rest of the class laughed along with him. She never looked at him or saw his face; she just ran out of the room crying. She was now an outcast labeled as a freak and she wanted nothing more than to just disappear. She felt she had no purpose in life. Until her sophomore year when she fell in love with Liam, the guy every girl wanted; the guy every dude wanted to be. He had stolen her heart and she now wanted nothing more than to be with him. Unfortunately, Liam seemed to want nothing to do with Emma. He seemed to be straight up avoiding her. They never interacted for 3 whole years. That is, until now in their senior year, when they get paired up for a school project. The two must put their differences aside and try to work as a team. But as they spend more time together, feelings grow deeper, and secrets start to rise to the surface. Warning: Contains mature language, sex, and topics of bullying, sexual assault/harassment, self-harm, and suicide

"I need you to be the put together one because I'm so fucked up. You've saved me." He whispers. "Carter, we saved each other." I mutter looking at him through my eyelashes.

My body needing him. Sophia Carrington. She just moved from New York to California in search of a new life. When her life took a dark turn she's forced to leave everything behind.
