I come barreling into the hospital, nearly taking out a nurse.
"Well someone's in a rush. What are you here for?" She questions me.
"What room is Scarlet O'Dare in?" I beg. She gives me a grave look and looks down.
"Follow me, Sir." She turned and walked towards the back. I stay on her heels all the way to ICU. My heart pounds in my chest. When I found out what happened, I left right away to see her. I needed to tell her how much I loved her. We stop walking and the nurse turns to me.
"This is her room. I'm so sorry," she whispers so quietly I almost don't hear her.
She walks away as I brace myself to open the door. I turn the handle and open the door to see Scarlet just laying there. I stand there, tears going down my face. There she is, but she looks so much smaller. Wires and pumps connected to her are all that's keeping her alive. Bandages are on her forearms covering them completely, but I know what's underneath. Cuts and scars. New ones and old ones. I know.
A/N: All the characters are my own. Some of them are based on people I know. There are going to be some triggering themes in this story, such as self-harm, suicide attempts and thoughts, mature language, and abuse. I will put a warning before each chapter, so you have a warning.

'Dad is hurting mom again' The boy cries softly, so as not to be heard, weeping at the unfairness of the world. Hours later, his bedroom door opens, and a soft hand touches his cheek. "Ian, my baby boy, I've got to go for a while, ok?" A woman's voice calls softly. The boy sits up, wiping his tears. "How long will you be gone?" The boy sniffles. "Mom is going to live with Uncle Sam for a while, just so she can make dad's company bigger. Make sure you take good care of Naomi. Don't forget to clean up after yourself, and get good grades in school." The boy's mother ruffles his hair and kisses him on the cheek. "I love you buddy. I'll be back in a few years. I know that sounds like a long time but, I'll be back before you know it. I just have to make dad happy." The boy nods, refusing to cry. 'I have to protect Naomi. I'm alone now.' the boy thinks to himself, determined. His mother stands up and walks away, her feet softly padding down the hallway.Complete
Scarlett
***SAMPLE CHAPTERS*** "Why can't I just go home!" Scarlett groaned and plopped down on the sofa and the woman scowled. "Because he wants you," She said in a bitter tone and Scarlett looked over at her with furrowed brows. "I don't know why he'd want you. I mean look at you," She grimaced and Scarlett felt tears fill her eyes at the woman's rude comments. "You don't have to be so mean," Scarlett said in a small voice as she picked at her fingers and the woman laughed. "Oh honey you've got a world of hurt coming if you think I'm mean, people in this business will tear you limb from limb till you are nothing. Consider me going easy on you," She explained as she zipped up the suit case that sat on the bed. She smirked at Scarlett but her eyes focused on something behind her and she looked terrified. Scarlett furrowed her brows and turned her head till it was looking at the door. Her mouth dropped at the sight of the man that now owned her Ranked #164 on Romance - 1/29/18Complete

Reverence
"I have no reason for staying here then. I'm not going to put myself in your so-called missions. Let me go back to my country as I have no partake in your operation" I said. Surpassing the beast, I take heavy steps towards the door when he pulls me back by my arm. I was taken aback when he pulled me, losing the balance I stumble on my tracks and with his strong pull I land on his chest. I immediately push myself back when he snakes his arm around my back making me unable to move from his grasp. We were so close now that my front was almost touching his making us look like hugging. He lowers himself and says "If you have a death wish then go ahead. The moment headquarters hear that you're no use to them, they will kill you without sparing a glance at you".

Finding Purpose (+18) ✔️
***this book contains suicidal thoughts and tendencies, may not be appropriate for younger audiences*** In which she looks for the purpose of life. Lily Carter's parents died in a car crash leaving her and Laura, girl was depressed long before her parents passed away and with all the problems turning up now, Lily felt more miserable - if that's even possible. With her journey to look for life's purpose and grab the small pinch of HOPE - which is ironically her second name -, will she finally snap at the pressure and finally end it all? or will a small light lit her darkened world of grief and loneliness? * "So you know. The little goth girl who gets bullied is indeed a mess. There's this mess in her head that eats her alive everyday isn't it? What to do now Kaden? Tell the whole neighborhood and recieve an award for taking out a crazy in this world?" I spit like vomit. His eyes warmed up as I finished, "Lily. It isn't like that" "What is it then? People stopped caring... they gave up, why aren't you?" I fought my tears. "Because I feel the need to care. Did Leigh hurt you? Did she hit you?" he finally noticed the unusual redness of my cheek. I don't like the way he told me he needed to care for me. I felt like an obligation, a responsibility that he is carrying and carrying leads to getting tired and when people gets tired, they give up. I don't want them to give up on me. But they will, so it's good not to make them care for me in the first place. "I never needed anyone. I stopped needing anyone before, why start now?" I uttered the words again. Why? There is nothing to fight for. No mama. No papa. No sister to love me. No one. So why would I waste my life and the time of others to fix what is already broken - and someone who doesn't want to be fixed? If I may add. Maybe I gave up. No, scratch that. I gave up a long time ago - when my parents died, my hope and purpose went away with them.Complete

His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn. You need to learn that you won't be going anywhere. You're mine." With that being said, his other hand slides down to my waist "Your entire body, your mind, your soul. All mine."
