When deportation becomes a death sentence...

Clara lives a happy normal simple life. Until she doesn't. For it depended on a little piece of plastic called green card, which she lacks. It hadn't been a problem, but now it's absence represents a life threat, she's been deported back to Mexico, where an angry ex-husband awaits for revenge. 

A story that involves a coyote, a cop, a drug cartel and a daily life hero... just another day on the Mexican border.

Inspired by the article "When deportation becomes a death sentence" by Sarah Stillman in the January 15, 2018 issue of The New Yorker, and the idea of writing a story in two tweets, that later became the first chapter.

In The Dark by mreadz69

Mia Graham. I've always thought of the world to be a good place. The people in it as well. This man is definitely intimidating and a bit scary but I see how sweet and caring he is. He shows me a lot but he hides even more. He thinks he's the dark and he's determined to show me that he's not worth my time. But he doesn't understand he's all I'll ever want. He doesn't get that I love every dark piece of him. I want everything. But I don't know if he'll let me have it all. Ryder Carson. The world is a terrible place. The people might be worse. That's all I've ever known. But this woman is a masterpiece. An angel. This world is unworthy of her light. These people get to bask in it when all they deserve is to be scalded. This life is terrible. But she's making it a whole lot better. She's making it seem worth it. I just don't deserve her. I'm drowning in the dark and I will not drag her down with me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Strong language, 6 year age-gap, alcoholism, violence, mature-content, mental health, etc. Read warning list.

She's Back by marisa_starz

CURRENTLY EDITING With that, I walk away from the guys and head towards wherever the bathroom is. As I walk down the hall, someone bumps into me causing me to take a step back. "I'm so sorry, oh it's the birthday girl, happy birthday," she apologizes. "Umm, it's okay and thank you-" "Davina. Davina Fiore, I'm Ava's friend," she responds. "Oh I had no idea Ava was here," I say. "Yeah she's over in the kitchen drowning her sorrows in alcohol." I give her a confused look and then she explains, "because you're with Damian. I mean, I would be doing the same thing too, but it is my first night back in town." "You know Damian?" I ask totally ignoring the 'drowning in sorrows' part. "More than you think," she smirks before walking into the crowd. -------------------------- ~ Elle Winters moves to Canada with her parents after her father gets a job promotion.

Guns and Roses | ✔ by Trina_K

(Original Version) My cousin and I are the only true bloods left in the Thanos Family. I'm eighteen now and my absent father decided to finally take responsibility of having another child. Moving from New York to California wasn't the hard part. The hard part was trying to find the ones who murdered my mother and my grandparents, pretending to be a normal high schooler, and along with that, fighting my feelings for one of my brother's best friends. Didn't I mention that I am also going to be the new Don of our West Coast Empire? I am Gaiana Kallisto Thanos, Mafia Princess, and the best fucking fighter there is. This is book one of the Mafia Duet. WARNING: 18+ Mature scenes and language. _________________________________________ EXCERPT: "I only give respect to those who deserve it, and the only one in this room that deserves it is Alex. Plus you can't call me a slut when you are the one who loves to constantly have her bed warmed with partners. I'm the one in a stable relationship." She gave a smirk. "You sure about that," she asked. She took her phone out and showed me a photo of Luca dressed in what he wore today, escorting Stephany into the passenger seat of his car. I felt my heart drop to my stomach but didn't outwardly show it. Years of being able to turn off my emotions come in handy. "Well there goes that." I looked into her eyes. "What? Did you expect me to drop to the floor and cry? Honey, you don't know me. And you never will because I'm moving out." I looked at my father and said, "It was nice meeting you but I'm good. I'll pack my stuff and be out by tonight." _________________________________________ Start: March 30, 2018 End: August 31, 2018 Copyrighted 2018

Bad Influence by rosy_pengirl

SYNOPSIS: The difference between Derek and I is like trying to count a tall building with over a hundred floors. While he's the type that gets tattoos, parties, sleeps around and smokes chunks with his friends, I'm the kind of girl that secure good grades at school just to make mummy proud. I'm not his type, he calls me a minor and ruffles my hair like a kid but I don't want to be that to him. I want to be everything he wants me to be, I want to be everything he likes in a woman even if it means skipping classes, partying and making mummy sad. I knew coming back to Austin TX after four years and getting to see those magnetic gray orbs that kept pulling me closer, those devilish lips, the smirk that whispers; 'Do what would make your mom disappointed' would be a bad idea. I shouldn't do this, I shouldn't look up to Derek. He's a bad influence, I know but I can't help it. ^^^^ Guys, welcome to my first ever Wattpad novel. After going through some of the chapters, my friends kept telling me this book is a Wattpad material and I should bring it here so here it is. I hope you guys love this. PS: I love Derek, the character from Teen wolf and to express my love, I've decided to use his fictional name and last name as my MMC. It's just the name and nothing more )3 Cover credit: Pin interest. #2 contemporary, really thankful for the opportunity guys 😊 #1 Contemporary, 1.24.24. Thank you ❤️
