"Behind those eyes, there's a girl in there desperately trying to break free. A girl who needs to be wanted so she can escape. 
        I'll be your redemption. " 

     "Stare at the devil's eyes head on. 
Demand an answer and free your self from his shackles..  Only you can do that. "


He helped her, some say he saved her but in the end... He left her.  

    Munachi Odumba the former outcast of Emerald Academy has evolved a lot since the first day she walked into the school.
    From being laughed at, avoided, respected by teachers, dating the most popular boy in school, mourning his absence, moving on with his best friend-second most popular boy in school, adjusting to his return and learning how to let go, she's been through it all. 
   Now she has friends who have proved that they'll have her back in any situation, friends she'd learnt and grew with, friends she would be willing to kill for, the type of friends that she has always wanted.  
      She's learnt how to forgive, learnt how to move on, learnt how to harness and turn her negative emotions into positive impacts and now she's stronger than ever but the one who was once her greatest strength and the only reason why she'd evolved so beautifully is now the weakness she has to either overcome or learn to live with.

The Mafia's Mercy by Laisha_Gardner

I stepped into the doorway, turning back to look at him as he tucked his hands into his navy blue jean's pockets. Despite my obvious insecurity, I leaped against my timidity, asking, "Will I ever see you again?" There I was, standing with the door wide open before a man that I didn't know, begging that he'd say that he'd be interested in seeing me again some day. After a brief moment's silence, he stepped toward me, closing the short distance between us. The knuckle of his index finger gently lifted my chin, the pad of his thumb brushing the shadow beneath my lips. My heart fluttered in my chest, my eyes drawn to his compelling ones as he murmured, "I'm dangerous, doll. I'd do you good if I stayed away." I should've left it alone. I should've listened and shut the door, but I didn't. I couldn't. ~the Mafia's Mercy~ She saw it happen, but she was smart enough to pretend she didn't. She understood why it happened. She understood why it had to happen. What she didn't understand is why they didn't hurt her brother. What she didn't understand is why they didn't hurt her. From the moment she laid eyes on him, she knew her life was set to change forever. The Mafia doesn't kill your parents and leave witnesses behind. How do they make the best use of them? When they're adolescents, they don't dispose of them. Instead, he plans, nurtures, and when he's ready, he exploits.

Just A Dare [Editing] by chocodropss

Published on the 12th of November, 2018. What the fuck! Can't you watch where you're going?? You almost injured me!" I said dusting my skirt and trying to get up with the help of the wall of course. " I'm so sorry. My bad" a deep voice told me. I quickly looked up and well he was too tall. I'm like the average height girl. I'm just 5"5. He's more like 5"11 or 6ft. I'm not sure. He was not too dark neither was he fair. He had this look on his face, I wasn't sure if he was smiling or frowning. It was confusing. His lips were redish and looked quite kissable. Idiot! Snap out of it jor My name is Oluchi. It was just a dare. Or so I thought. Follow Oluchi on a journey filled with love, trust, betrayal, lies. What will happen when the dare she thought was so little could end up being so destructive.

Now or Later by InactiveQueen

"Harry, don't walk away from me when I am trying to talk to you! You can not just get into a bitch fit when i am in the middle of a fucking meeting! I had to kill that guy because he saw your face!" Harry jerked away from Louis' hold, turning away from him "You said you would do a lot of fucking things. It has been weeks, baby. I get it okay. You are nervous. " Louis pulled at his shirt sarcastically giggling "Harry, nervous? HA! You think I am fucking nervous? I am terrified, Aloe! The people I deal with don't care about anything. They see you as a weakness, a way to get to me! They see you and they take you and put a fucking bullet in your head. They send that shit to me and to them, Harry, it is any old Tuesday!" -- Or an Au where morals aren't ethical, truths are lies, and love hurts. But not as much as a bullet to the buttcheck, no that hurts worse.

BROKEN (Sequel to Behind The Lights) by A_Storyteller93

"But that's the thing though, you'd think you know someone and then they turn out to be something completely different," I tell her honestly. I remember Jason being this perfect gentleman who always allowed me to speak my mind and be in control and as soon as I was his, he turned into a monster. Guys can be very persuasive when they want something and they'd go to the ends of the earth to get it. The harder it is to get, the harder they'll work for it, even if it requires them to change and be someone else but as soon as they got you, you'll see a different side of them. I'm not making any mistakes this time. This story is the sequel to Behind The Lights. New Updates Once A Week😊

What happens when she is forced to work with the person she thought she will never see again? There will be tension, drama and secrets will be bought to light. They say what's meant for you will come back. What if they are destined assassins after all? "How come we are supposed to work with them, when you forbade me from dating him?" I ask.
