Will they find out who is behind this? ---------------------- I felt like bile was rising in my throat and at any given second I could have thrown up. When Cameron walked around to my side, Imani barked at me, "Try the car again!" I did as she asked, my breathing erratic. "I'm trying, I'm trying!" I screamed in panic. I pressed the pedal with all the strength I had and we moved at best an inch. I was seconds away from vomiting. I kept on pressing the gas, but nothing really happened. I went nowhere. Cameron was calm when he banged on my window. I let out a strangled scream. "Open the door, Briana." He demanded of me, but it was gentle. He was always gentle before he was cruel. "Open the door so we can finally talk. Isn't this what you wanted?" I started banging on the steering wheel. "Come on!" I shouted, tears threatening to fall. "Go!" "Open the door, Briana." This time was more stern and serious. Imani was talking to someone on the phone, voice cracking like she was about to start crying. "Please." was all I could make out from her conversation. He banged both of his hands on the window, spit flying out of his mouth. Cameron enraged at this point. "OPEN THE DOOR!" He yelled at the top of his lungs. -------------------- This story was inspired from the tv and book series "Pretty Little Liars." Trigger Warnings ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

Sariah's first year at Clark University is supposed to be about new beginnings, independence, and finding her path. But as she steps into the unknown, she finds herself caught between the expectations of who she *should* be and the person she's beginning to uncover beneath the surface. Her journey of self-discovery takes an unexpected turn when she meets Mercedes, her eclectic, Afrocentric, crystal-loving roommate who introduces Sariah to a side of her culture she's never fully explored. Mercedes' unapologetic embrace of her black roots and spiritual practices forces Sariah to confront the parts of her identity she's kept hidden or ignored, opening her eyes to a deeper connection to her culture. At the same time, Sariah finds herself paired with Drew, a mysterious and artistic classmate, for a challenging art project. Initially, Drew seems like just another classmate-but as their collaboration deepens, Sariah begins to see him in a different light. With Drew, she finds herself questioning more than just her art; she begins to wonder if she's ready to open her heart and take a leap into something more than just a creative partnership. Sariah navigates the messy, beautiful, and transformative process of learning who she really is, embracing her culture, and discovering that sometimes, the path to self-awareness is more about the people we meet than the answers we seek. A tale of friendship, love, and self-empowerment, this coming-of-age story is a celebration of what it means to find your roots while forging your own identity.
Unintended Consequences
"You just have no idea." His voice was thick with restraint. "W-what," I breathed. His gaze flicked to my lips as his thumb stroked again. The calloused pad against my soft flesh sent goosebumps down my arms. His once warm eyes were dark as they lifted and bared into my soul. "What you do to... men." His husky whisper weakened my knees. I almost fell but his other hand settled on my hip, pulling me closer to him. "What you do to me," he added on a breath. The hand on my jaw shifted. His fingers left trails of tingles as he slipped them back slowly, under my earlobe and into my curls. *************************************************** As a young girl, Charlotte Avery's favourite pass time was daydreaming about her Prince Charming: Archer Johnson.
