Young Western Victorian women were always taught to be proper--quiet, small, conserved, and hardworking. But for Eliza Lynch, this lifestyle held nothing but confinement. Her days were always the same: Wake up, eat, help her mother around the house, eat, more work, eat, and go to bed. All she wanted was to break away and make her own mark on the world.

Gabriel Sinnet's world was quite the opposite. As the son of state-wide infamous smuggler and gun slinger, James Sinnet, his life was always spent on the run. He wanted nothing more than to be a normal young man: to go to school and learn and have a normal life.

There was no hope for either of their dreams to become a reality. But that was before their paths crossed, and sent the pair on a road that neither of them ever expected they'd take.All Rights Reserved

Regency Romance: The Earl's Obsession (Historical Romance) (COMPLETED) by charlottestonebooks

(COMPLETED) It's 1817 and there is nothing more a woman wants than to marry a rich man and live a life of comfort. But not Nancy Brooks. Having spent half her life helping her mother run her laundry shop and the other half in the local library, Nancy knows what she wants, and it is not a life spent looking for the perfect suitor. Things take a turn when she delivers clothes to one of the schools she always dreamed of attending and ends up saving the day. Lord Andrew Montgomery rules almost every place he sets foot in-one of the perks of being the son of the most powerful duke of the time-and this includes Oxford. Violent and aggressive, he vows to make the life of every student who dares defy him miserable. However, when he targets the new (and first) girl at Oxford, his obsession becomes a little more than just making her life miserable. It began, he would later speculate, with a shout: the simple sound of someone shouting at him-for the first time in his life. It began, she would later speculate, with a catch: the simple movement of strong arms, breaking her fall, catching her midway. But after that, there would come many more events, and ones not too keen on bringing them together. What will they do when a powerful duchess steps in, when it seems every person is working to keep them apart? This is a story of betrayal and love, because they are not so different after all...

Into the Velvet by help-me-think-of-one

*EDITORS' CHOICE 2021*After falling for her senior year teacher, Louise learns a harsh lesson on what adulthood isn't. Louise has some trauma to unpack. Heartbreak's a bitch, and her first relationship had been anything but normal. Thinking herself mature for her age, her affair with Mr. Cain started swooningly well. Except things ended quite abruptly. It's a lot for a seventeen year old to handle. But who's really at fault for what happened? Who even is Mr. Cain, and what is he hiding? From the wreckage of her naivety and self-esteem, can Louise save her friendships and rebuild herself? Our love songs aren't telling the whole truth. How can this be? In this tale of vulnerability, adolescence and painful reckoning, the arrogance of youth demands a price. * "'You're what, Louise?' he asked. 'You're sorry? What am I supposed to do here? How can I turn this around? How can I tell you that everything you want and feel is reciprocated, when I have to go back to work and pretend none of it happened?' 'I don't know the answer!' I cried. 'Neither of us do.' I threw my hands up in defeat. He caught them before they could fall. 'But how do I go back to living without your words?' His voice became a whisper. He squeezed my fingers tightly, closing his eyes and bringing them to his chest. 'I need how you make me feel, Luiza. I need it to feel alive. I won't stay away. No one's made me feel this good before. And I can't stand myself for wanting what I want. What do I do?' I was a violin bow on the verge of splintering. Every inch of me pulsed with an ache that began from the marrow of my bones. Fate had brought us here. At this crossroads of ours, there were a hundred different choices to make. A thousand different lifetimes to choose from, stemming from and decided entirely by my next choice. And in the end, I chose incorrectly. I held his face between my hands, feeling the echoing pulse of his skin. I brought his face to mine. I kissed him."

Beggar by GiantSnails

He whispered, "Don't make a sound." "How do you expect me to beg and cry for you?" I taunt and attempt to dig my nails in the hand he rested in front of me, eye level while I was on his lap. He squeezed the hand tightly before pushing it behind my back. He slapped my ass hard for the little comment, and I gawked. I've never been struck, or punished before.

Flames Through Sorrow (TCM) by Hydrakinz

Based on one of the biggest horror movie series to ever hit the video game universe, Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I do not claim any sort of ownership to the lore of TCM, only to the story ahead. For those reading this on Wattpad, please take note that not all tags/themes can be listed here, and a much more detailed listing will be put on AO3/Archive Of Our Own. This story will contain very violent and inappropriate themes and natures and is not suitable for readers below the age of eighteen, although, I can't technically stop anyone from reading my work, it is required of me to warn those out there, respectfully. - Johnny Sawyer was known for his sinister attitude and overly confident way on the hunting ground, and he just about never failed to search for the thing his family sought him out to find. Under this unyielding role, he was one of the most honored underneath the family pride. With his mother being put away by the law of the modern age, it was up to him and the rest of the family to keep things going just as they always have. Everything would be abnormally normal for quite some time, and the usual struggle was strong in Johnny's veins at being without the person who kept him on his toes from morning till night. Johnny was unaware that his life would soon unfold into one of the biggest lies he's ever known and send him down a spiraling roller-coaster of hell-bent rage and regret. To top it all off, a thing he never knew or cared for was his biggest motive for mercy. Love. -
