"So you think you know me?"
I took a step back, afraid of what he would do. However, I didn't lower my gaze. I wouldn't be afraid of him, I couldn't.
"What, Damian? Do you think you scare me?" I questioned, giving him a defiant look.
He laughed humorlessly. It was threatening. It was out of control. I should have been scared. I should have been terrified. Instead, I grew my woman balls for the hundredth time since I had been working here, and pressed my lips to his.
**********
Eliana Cruz is everything a young woman should be. Through the hard times that she's lived through, her happiness remains untouched. That is, until she meets Damian Novax, one of the most proclaimed lawyers in the country. He is not the man that he appears to be.
Will he pretend to be something he isn't with her? Or will he allow Eliana to see the man below the surface?

Zane Wilder
*SLOWLY BEING EDITED* Zane had a special mission to accomplish. No one could find out that he's undercover. No one. But with those hazel eyes and her smart mouth he couldn't stay away from her. She was making him feel things he never knew it was possible. Yet bringing her into his world was dangerous especially because of her sudden connection to his case. Katherine has a baggage full of insecurities and trust issues. She never had an official boyfriend and being 24 that's socially unacceptable. The danger those grey eyes emit should scare her away. He was trouble and she knew that but she couldn't help it. The attraction she feels towards him is scaring her. Is it worth taking the risk? ........ "Can you cook?" "I can" "Good, what about laundry and cleaning?" I nodded. "Fuck Angel, you're like the perfect woman and you still want me to be your friend" He joked and found myself laughing. "Because I am the perfect housewife?" I asked arching an eyebrow. "No, because you are the perfect combination of smart, beautiful, and skillful." I blushed at that and I wanted to look away but one of his hands stopped me and turned my face towards him. "Get used to hearing compliments because you're going to hear them often in the future. Now, about my offer..." He gave me an expectant look. I thought for a while. I still wasn't sure it was a good idea but I liked working at the shop and still wanted to work there for a little while. "Alright, let's do it," I said. "Now? Here? Damn Angel, first the fiancé thing, and now this. For someone inexperienced, you sure move fast" He joked and I laughed. *Warning ⚠️* Strong language, triggering topics such as body shaming, depression...Complete
Killing Benjamin (A Completed Steamy, Romance)
#1 Steamy on October 13, 2018-October 18, 2018 #2 Steamy September 25, 2018 Sena Mcginley was a beautiful child. Her dark blonde hair always had wavy curls and she had sapphire eyes that looked like they were made of glitter. She was smart, fun and a little on the wild side during her childhood. She had a lot of friends which included Jennifer and Bethany. These two girls were as much fun as Sena and were equally as beautiful. They were special to Sena but neither was her best friend. That honor belonged to Grant Dalton. Her best friend since first grade. He was quiet and reserved but popular as the school quarterback. He didn't get into the drinking and partying as much as his teammates. Girls fell to his feet and that was his favorite part of high school. He had dirty blond hair, light blue eyes, his eyelashes so long he looked like he wore eyeliner. His six foot three-inch frame towered over Sena at five foot five. The two met when Jake pushed Sena off the swings. Grant rushed over and pushed Jake down and helped Sena back on the swing. From that day forward he was her protector and best friend. He had a habit of sneaking into Senas room at night and the two spent hours talking and laughing. She would give him advice about girls and he, of course never approved of her dating anyone. She was too perfect to trust any guy alone with her and this irritated Sena. What happens when the two are separated by college and the military? What happens when she returns to his life for all the wrong reasons? https://w.tt/2yJYTwm Edited by @hannahbananalc Copyright © 2020 by Grace Madden All Rights Reserved.Complete

"I... Am here to see you.", I told him as I placed my hands around his neck. I could feel my heart beat getting faster but I had to keep it strong if I had to survive this scenario. "What?", Brandon asked completely startled. I leaned in more closer to him. The only good thing in this entire scene was that he wasn't pushing me back due to my creepy behaviour. "Oh... Bran, I was missing you so much, I just... I needed to see you.", I said as I came up with lie. "Are you drunk?", Brandon asked as he leaned in closer trying to smell my mouth. Thank God Fel had given me her mint gum only moments before I went commando and came inside the locker room. "What?", I scoffed still standing extremely close to Brandon. "I just.... I was missing your gorgeous face.", I told another lie. But wait? His face is gorgeous so that isn't a lie. And was I not missing seeing him? I noticed Brandon who just had his eyes popped out of his socket with bewilderment at my words. I decided to peck him on the cheek before I storm out of the locker room. I leaned ahead to peck Brandon who moved his face in my direction and instead of his cheeks, our lips crashed. Brushing against each other, our lips touched.
