L'INTERDIT DE T'AIMER ( pt 3)
Aigrie, froide, méprisante, c'est ainsi qu'on la connaît, et qu'on la redoute. Pourtant, les jugements glissent sur elle sans l'atteindre. Olive Monroe, qui joue le rôle de mère pour ses sœurs, est dépourvue de sensibilité. Analyste en cybermenaces en collaboration avec le gouvernement, elle mène ses enquêtes avec une rigueur redoutable. Jusqu'au jour où, en fouillant un peu trop dans les affaires douteuses d'un ministre, certains dossiers fuitent. Son supérieur n'a alors pas d'autre option que de lui assigner un garde du corps pour assurer sa sécurité. Olive déteste déjà les hommes, alors devoir compter sur l'un d'eux ? Impensable. Mais l'arrivée de cet homme va bouleverser l'ordre qu'elle avait imposé à sa vie. Une tension s'installe entre eux, une attraction incontournable et troublante. Et cet homme irrésistible ne se contente pas seulement de la protéger : il la désire, tout autant qu'il désire la comprendre, abattre les murs qu'elle a érigés autour d'elle.
Two Sides, One War
Meet Zethea, a Zecorian warrior from another planet. All her life she has been told that the humans were responsible for the centuries long war resulting in many casualties. Her father wants her to become a strategist behind the lines, but her vengeance for blood makes her become a skilled killer on the front lines. Until she is left behind in the desolate jungle wasteland of a forgotten city, and finds herself having to become allies with a lone human soldier who didn't even want to be in the war in the first place. They soon discover a secret about the war, and realize that their whole lives were raised with lies. T+ because gore and violence. Maybe some romance later on but nothing close to fifty shades of NOPE. P.S: most of the artwork here is not mine, but I am in the the process of replacing some of it with my own artwork. Zethea's character design is made by me and is my intellectual property, all other images unless with the initials "TVS" signed on them are not mine, their rights go to their respective owners. If there is a copyright issue concerning any images within this book, then I will be happily able to remove/replace them upon request.Complete
CALL OFF
Arabella, recluse et casanière, passe ses nuits à regarder des films et à enquêter sur les tueurs en série, fascinée par l'horreur qu'elle préfère observer de loin. Mais depuis plusieurs jours, quelque chose cloche. Son interphone s'active sans raison, la caméra filme sans qu'elle ne l'ait enclenchée, et parfois, elle croit entendre quelqu'un murmurer, comme un souffle contre la ligne pourtant coupée. Une nuit, alors qu'elle éteint son film, un frisson lui glace l'échine. L'écran de l'interphone est encore allumé. Cette fois, ce n'est pas une erreur. Ce qu'elle voit la paralyse : une silhouette obscure, un massacre en direct, une violence qui ne devrait pas exister sous ses yeux. Puis, alors qu'elle retient son souffle, la silhouette s'arrête.

Mil SO (Military Significant Other)
My chest hurt as an empty feeling rushed over me. My breathing picked up as I clutched my chest. It was painful but yet, oh so familiar. Black dots swam in my vision as my heart beat wildly. I closed my eyes and tried to calm my breathing. Panic attacks weren't uncommon for me. I'd had them ever since the accident. I felt the tears roll down my cheeks as my face heated. It was getting harder to breath. It felt like the walls were closing in around me, and the oxygen was being sucked out of the room. "Iris! Calm down. You have to calm down," a voice sounded from a distance. It was too late; I was in full panic attack mode. My body shook as I sobbed in gasps. I felt hands on my arms but barely. I was too far-gone. The black dots increased as my breathing did. I'd done this too many times to know what was coming next. I hyperventilated until I passed out completely. ~ After a traumatic event that led to her family's death, Iris moves with her Aunt to California to try and start over. Iris Morgan grew up a military brat. With her dad in the Marines, she grew accustomed to that lifestyle, until she was ripped from it. Now she has to be the new girl all over again. Only this time, she has to keep her C-PTSD in check as well as survive a high school full of teen celebrites, cute boys, and around the clock drama. All Iris has to do is survive two years until graduation, but what comes after graduation may prove to be more difficult than high school itself.Complete

Originile Leilor -O poveste Mickelson
🌑 La început nu era dragoste. Nu era speranță. Doar un imperiu care trăia din sânge, clădit pe urlete și cenușă. Un imperiu fără suflet, în care fiecare leu era crescut să fie mai crud decât celălalt. 🩸 Și în mijlocul lui s-a născut o bestie. Un copil smuls din copilărie, rupt de durere, transformat în monstru. Un leu care nu cunoștea decât întunericul. Și întunericul era singurul care-l iubea. ⚔️ Dar atunci... a apărut ea. O voce mică, o fată simplă, o orfană fără scut și fără sânge regal. Ea nu știa ce face. Dar un singur „ajunge" a crăpat zidurile iadului. Și bestia a amuțit. 🔥 Din întunericul cel mai negru s-a născut lumina. Lumina avea nume: Hope. Ea a fost cea care a schimbat monstrul în Leu. Ea a fost începutul. Și fără să știe, a scris istoria unei familii care avea să zguduie lumea. 📖 Originile Leilor - O poveste Mickelson Înainte de legendă, a fost întuneric. Iar din sângele leilor... s-a născut totul. 🦁 In sanguine Leonis, initium.Complete
Tell Me It's Forever
"Hey," I get her attention as I sit closer to her. "We're doing everything we can to find this mob okay? You'll be out of this situation in no time." "And what if something bad happens," she looks at me wide eyed with those beautiful eyes of hers. Can never forget the colour. Hazel with little bits of green inside them. "Nothing bad will happen." "But something bad always happens to me. I have such a bad feeling about all this and my gut never lies to me," her voice cracks at the end. "It's life and death. Nothing ever good comes out of that." A lone tear slides down her cheek and she shuts both her eyes tightly, her palms squeezing the fuck out of her thighs. I quickly grab one of them so she can stop hurting herself and put pressure on my palm instead. "I need you to stop crying and go rest now. I think that would be best for you." "But..." "No buts. I know you're a strong independent woman that really needs to solve this and find out what's going on but stop okay? I'll take care of it." "Pinky swear?" She sniffs as she holds out her little finger and I find myself smiling at her. "Of course." I wrap my finger with hers. What happened next really surprised me. *** Liya Abrechtt, a popular girl at college, starting her career, straight A student, everyone loves her, her life is practically normal. Until it isn't.
