"Nathan put the gun down. Please just calm down. Please.." My voice cracks in fear.
"Don't tell me what to do! You think I'm stupid? Yeah, you think I'm stupid. You thought I was just going to stand here and watch you open your legs for another guy." His eyes began darting back and forth between Duncan and I who was standing behind me.
"Nathan please just put the gun down and let's talk about this." I plead with Nathan but he doesn't seem to hear me. His gaze fixcating on just Duncan now. Nathan continues to wave the gun around, his hands holding firm to the trigger ready to fire.
Before I get to say anything else I feel a hand grab my arm and pull me out of the way. I turn in time to see Duncan, with fear filled eyes, mouthing the word run. But I don't move. All I do is turn back around to face Nathan and begin walking towards him-slowly. I can see him at the corner of my eye trying to reach out for my hand and pull me back. But that only makes me walk faster.
I know that what I'm doing is stupid. Hell, maybe even insane, but this has to stop. Nathan has to stop. Duncan's eyes, so full of fear and confution and it makes me feel sick to my stomach. I shouldn't have dragged him into this but I didn't mean to do this. It just happened, and I wish I had just kept my big mouth shut. At least then he wouldn't have found out and he wouldn't be here in the first place. He was only trying to help and look where helping me has gotten him. All he wanted to do was protect me. That's all..
Two more steps to reach Nathan on the other side of my bedroom and all I hear is the sound of a gun going off.

Fake Tales
"I don't know what kind of girl you think I am Greg" I mumbled. I was not the kind of girl who slept with guys on a whim. I wanted him, but not enough to abandon all reason. He took a step toward me, ignored my narrowed eyes and wrapped his arms around me. I wriggled and tried to pull away, but he only held me tighter. His face was impossibly close to me, expression serene to my fury. I could feel him already, pressing into my stomach. Fear shot through me, but the anticipation was equal. "I know exactly what kind of girl you are Maddy... that's the problem" He said simply. His lips crashed into mine, tasting every inch of me. I wanted more than anything to pull away, leave and never mention this again.... but I couldn't do it. The feel of him naked, warm and muscular against me rendered me speechless. I couldn't explain it, but our bodies seemed to fit together somehow and the anger I'd felt just a minute ago. That firey anger at him invading my privacy was gradually merging with the previous lust from last night. Now all I felt was an all consuming need for him to touch me. ....................................................................... Maddy Reynolds' life is a mess. Her best friend's brother Greg has just died and her two best friends Mel and Dom aren't speaking to each other. She has no one to talk to about her confusing feelings towards Greg or why Mel is so distant. Then at the funeral, she becomes friends with Tom Winter by pure chance and he seems to be the only one who understands her. And yet.... even he is keeping secrets from her. The sort of secrets that have the power to change everything. Maddy now has to decide to trust him or find out the truth on her own. Things would have been a whole lot simpler if she'd chosen the latter.Complete
Kill Me Gangleader
Someone walks into the room but I cannot see its face. It looks like a man and by the look of his posture, he seems very important. "Why were you in my territory?" His voice is strangely calm however I think its the calm before the storm. "I didn't know it was your territory! For gods sake how many times do I have to tell you people? Just let me go and I promise I won't say anything to anyone. Not like I have anyone to tell." The last part I said in a whisper. He didn't need to know the situation I was in. I hear the cock of a gun making me raise my head. The all too familiar sound ringing in my ears. "I don't believe you bitch, so you better tell me the truth or your brains are gonna end up on the wall." Ah there's the storm. "A gun doesn't scare me arsehole, I've had way worse things than that!" He steps forward into the light so I can see his features. He is extremely good looking but right now is not the right time to admire his beauty. I stare straight into his pitch black eyes, daring him to try harder than this. He smirks and leans forward searching my eyes. Before I can even register what's happening, he punches me in the face. *** Mature ContentComplete

Connections | ✔️
[COMPLETE] Sorry this may be cringe, it was written very long ago A seemingly ordinary, working college girl meets a cool, undeniably sexy boy with millions of followers at his feet. How will their completely different lives allow, or prevent them from getting what they want? Expect some drama, flirty lines, steamy scenes, funny best friends, and perhaps, an overall epic love connection. ~ Carter came around the corner as his eyes darkened with a predatory gaze. Oh no. He took a step forward, minimalizing the distance with every dominating stride, as I froze in my spot. My breath hitched as his arms finally encircled my waist and his eyes locked with mine. In one swift motion, he flipped my body so my back was pressed against his chest and hands gripped the curve of my hips. "What game are you trying to play at Valerie?" he spoke in a husky voice. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his hot breath fanned against the shell of my ear and his fingertips lit a trail of blazing heat along the length of my arm. Mentally shaking myself from the trance of that which is Carter Bryson, I tilted my head towards him and whispered; "One where you'll lose." Quickly escaping his hold on me before the tension became unbearable, I spun on my heel to face him and slowly backed away towards the exit. "Good luck though." I added mischievously. With a smirk and a devilish glint in his eyes that could even give hell a run for its money, he replied; "I'm not a player though, baby. I'm the gamemaker." ~ ❗️Mature content.

PARANOID & KARMA || G HERBO || 2 BOOKS IN 1
BOOK 1 - PARANOID - and it's hard to sleep at night." He scratched his neck. "Only God alone knows what I done last night and that shit makes me paranoid". "What did you do last night". I finally spoke up, feeling comfortable to ask. He ignored the question. "If I slip, I slide." That must be why he can't tell me I thought to myself. "I wonder if that girl fuckin wit my enemy and it got me wondering if she'd try kill me too." He shook his head. "Shit and if dem niggas caught me off guard I wouldn't know wat I'd do." I didn't say anything by listen to this young man. "I bleed they bleed." He mumbled looking straight ahead. "They follow, I lead". His eyes gotten dark now, staring straight at me as if he were blood thirsty. He had almost a smirk on his face... almost like.. almost like the devil. "They say karma is a bitch.." he trailed off. "And even after he's dead". He paused. "That's why". He paused again. "Paranoid". He shook his head, chuckled a little and got up and left. I sat there defeated and finally called the doctor. "Herbert Wright... His symptoms gotten worse". BOOK 2 - KARMA I felt a burning sensation. I touched my chest, where my heart is and raised up my hand to see that it was blood. I looked up to see the figuree standing over me with fear, hurt and hatred in their eyes. "I love you Herbert". She began sobbing. I recognised the voice. "But I am my brothers keeper". I began shaking my head quickly as she pointed the pistol gun at me. I tried to talk but I couldn't. The words wouldn't come out. I was dead already. Tears started streaming down her face now. "It was either you or us." She waved the gun about now wiping her tears, looking down at her stomach "That thing called Karma ain't a bitch like me". She mumbled clicking the pistol. My eyes rolled back and then.. "BANG". Unconscious but conscious. The once black figure removed its mask exposing that it's -. - 2 BOOKS IN 1 -Complete

Blade ✔️
Blade's eyes turned cold. Like a dark colored ocean that just froze. He took a frightening step forward so now his face was only inches from my face, even with his height, making my breath hitch in my throat. I could no longer breath. No longer see people repeatedly walking past my house. No longer hear those birds in the tree that were begging me to run. I could only see his dark blue eyes that held so much danger and anger. I could only hear his rapid breathing and even his fast heartbeat. I was just that dazed into his stare.... more like glare. "Is there someone else?" he said so low no one could hear but me. And I heard him. So clearly. I heard the threat telling me to say yes for he can make whoever the competition is disappear. I heard the anger he held behind his low tone. I heard the jealousy beyond anything. That was what clouded over everything. "N-no," I stuttered. I'm angry to admit I was scared. How he towered over me didn't make it any better. Standing proudly at maybe a 6'4 or 6'5. While I stood at a 5'5. He scanned my face trying to look for any sign of me lying. And when he backed up I knew he couldn't find one because what I said was indeed true. To be honest there was only him. And it seems like that is what it will always be. The all famous gang leader and tough girl, cross paths. He hates disrespect and that's what she's all about. How do you think this will all play out in the end?Complete

She smiled sweetly in return, "Now, what could I possibly want from you?" His eyes roamed over her face for a minute before his arm shot out and wrapped around her waist. She let out a surprised gasp as she suddenly found herself pressed up against him. She shivered involuntarily as she felt his breath fan her face and stiffened again as she realized how close his face was to her own. •••••••• A story about a group of friends going after the boys they've been secretly in love with for all of high school.

My Life, My Alpha.......My Love
"Zachary." I snickered. He growled playfully as I laughed, dodging his attempt to grab me and took off running in a random direction. I ran with Zac right on my heels, until I turned a corner and ran into a hard chest. I prepared myself for a hard fall, when two muscular arms shot out, wrapping around my waist and crushing my body against theirs. "Hello, beautiful." The person said. I looked up to see a handsome boy, probably around seventeen also. His face looked oddly familiar and while trying to figure out why, I froze. His face was inching closer and closer to mine. I could feel his breath wash over my face as his lips was parted, only inches away from my face, eyes closing slightly, when suddenly a fierce growl shot out through the silence, that had my body tingling. In a flash I was out of the mysterious boy's hold and my hand instantly reached out to steady myself. I looked up to see Zac, pinning the boy by his throat, on a nearby wall. "Keep your filthy hands to yourself, she's MINE!!!!"He growled possessively. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Jessica Matthews, i'm 17 and i'm a werewolf..not only that but the alpha's daughter.My life was perfect, i had an amazing family which consisted of my parents, my older brother Jared and I, I had a wonderful bestfriend, Stacey and, even though he wasn't my mate, a perfect boyfriend, Dylan, or at least i thought so, until one night he does something unforgivable and my mate waltzes in as my knight in shining armor.
