Eliza-beth | Complete | unedited
This is an unedited first draft, which will soon go for major construction. Eliza-beth, where HIS secrets are revealed. Family breaks/unite, past is relived. Devil dies, heir rise, mafia politics...... After everything is at peace, at least I feel this way. After killing the man who destroyed my life, I find everyone played their part. They needed someone to put the blame and I was there with no one to defend me. So I paid the price of their mistakes. I lost my family, my life, my dreams but Karma is a bitch. Without doing anything, they all paid. But even after everything I loved them, I never wanted them to suffer but I can't fight with fate. Even with the mystery that my man in black hides. But I like to solve that mystery every day. "He said we were connected even before we born. I am his and he is mine. In this life and next life." (must read 'beth' to understand Eliza-beth) *Excerpt* "Valerio has his own issues." I snapped. "Calm down. You are behaving like a possessive woman." She tried to lighten my mood and laughed. But no....she failed. Because I didn't feel any humour in it. "I am a possessive Mrs ROGERS." I declared openly. "You are blind. Can't you see what he did?" She taunted me. "He's up to something...... Bigger. Heinous." She whispered.Complete

ESPRESSO
"Tell me to leave," he said, his voice a low, dangerous whisper that sent shivers cascading down my spine. My breath hitched as I met his piercing gaze, my heart racing in my chest. "And if I don't?" His lips curled into a slow, wicked smile, his eyes dark and consuming, laced with something that made my pulse quicken. He leaned closer, his voice dropping even further. "Then don't blame me for what happens next." "You're playing a very dangerous game, Leo," I managed to say, though my voice trembled as my eyes flicked to his lips. "Am I?" he murmured, his tone soft yet devastating. "Because from where I'm standing, you're the one pulling the strings." His smirk was ever-present, and the amusement dancing in his eyes told me he was thoroughly enjoying this-and it was dangerous for both of us. ~~~~ They were both hiding, but neither expected to be found. Calista Carlisle, Hollywood's sweetheart, escapes to the sleepy town of Mendocino after a public breakup turns her life into tabloid fodder. She's traded red carpets for creaky coffee shop chairs, hoping to stay invisible. But nothing stays quiet for long-not when Leo Donovan, the maddeningly smug owner of the cafΓ©, keeps finding ways to break through her defenses. Leo isn't just any barista. Billionaire by birth, recluse by choice, he's traded boardrooms for espresso machines, running his late mother's cafΓ© chain under the radar. He's done with the high-stakes world of fame and fortune-until Calista waltzes into his cafΓ© and flips his carefully curated life upside down. Their connection is magnetic, but the secrets they're running from might pull them apart. In a town too small for pasts as messy as theirs, one thing becomes clear: they're either each other's safe haven-or their ultimate undoing. "They were supposed to be each other's escape-until they became each other's greatest temptation."

A Bird's Eye View: The Villain and the Hero's Love Affair
You're just a little birdie, minding your own business-flying around, dodging falling leaves, trying not to get too involved in the messes of the city below. But, oh, the drama! The masked hero and the brooding villain you've been watching for months-yeah, those two? They have a lot of secrets. The hero's perfect, obviously, saving the world and all that. But the villain? Oh, dear. By day, they wear a mask of evil and power, but you've seen what happens when the cape comes off. There's some serious darkness lurking in their private life-self-loathing, quiet pain, and way too many late-night mood swings. But don't worry, the villain's got it under control... or so they think. You thought their love story was one of those sweet "enemies-to-lovers" kind of deals, until you saw the truth from way up here. It's a mess. Betrayal. Anger. Love. Secret identities. A fight that's way more personal than you ever imagined. But hey, that's not your problem, right? You're just a bird. Except, well... Maybe you care. Maybe you're the one who's been flying around, wondering if their messy, secret love story will ever have a happy ending-or if one of them will end up on the wrong side of the city's skyscraper (literally). From your vantage point, it's a little too close for comfort, but hey-no one ever said love was easy, even for villains and heroes. Just try not to get caught in the crossfire, okay?

Release Me
Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.Complete
