badboy danger death fighting fightingforlove highschool love nerd romance spy

A chaotic love story.


Meet Aries Cross, the intelligent, but witty, anxious, but pretty, small and quiet, but strong and deadly, seventeen year old ex-spy. 

Aries was taught to fight and since the first moment she could, by her amazing father. Her father was an amazing spy working for the CIA, and taught his daughter everything he knew in hopes for her to follow in his footsteps. And she did. Once she turned ten, she already could beat down three full grown men at once, had military, boxing, self defence, and basic fighting training, could snipe anything no matter the distance, as long as she could see it, hack into any website she wanted, and of course, spy without being caught.

Until one day, her father got shot on duty, and killed. Aries was with him, she could have saved him, and because she didn't, she felt that she wasn't good enough to be a spy, and quit in her fathers honor. She stopped speaking unless it was required, and closed everyone off and away from her life. Until her step mother finally convinced her to go back to high school; Where she meets Reese, the highly annoying, gorgeous jaw-dropping, hilarious, heart stopping, bad boy.

Reese is determined to figure Aries out, the quiet mysterious new girl, but she seems very determined to keep her secrets closed off... until they are forced out by something very deadly.

"Psst!"

I looked over at the gorgeous boy sitting besides me, I would never actually admit he was gorgeous in person, of course. It was Reese.

"Why haven't I seen you around town before? I know everyone here, were you hiding under a rock?" 

His friend sitting besides him snickered. I didnt blink, nor answer, I only turned back around, pulling a book from my bag and opening it. 

"Why dont you talk?" Reese asked.

Without missing a beat I spat a response.

"Why dont you shut up?"

The gorgeous boy let out a chuckle.

"I'm going to figure you out, whether you like it or not."

It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together. A wave of electricity went down to my core when he licked my lips. "Open your mouth, Bella." His commanding husky voice against my lips jolted my heart, and I followed his order like a slave. With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips.

The Perfect Match #1 by BookQueen1235

Kaylee is your typical good-girl. But things take a turn when she bumps into a 'bad boy' at a party. ~ We finally get inside the party. But this isn't your usual party it was packed with celebrities, models, and Hot guys. I get one drink and... boom. I went crazy. I got another and another and another. Soon I was as drunk as I could be. I have no idea where I was going but I bumped into a really buff scary looking guy. I frowned for a second then I spoke. "Hey watch... where you are going!" I shout nearly falling. He catches me as soon as I fall. "Ms. I call for no trouble-" "Are you always this huge?" I said interrupting him. He guffaws for a moment then he replies. "Ma'am I am always this huge. But could you stop drooling on me?" We both looked down and that wasn't drool. I accidently peed on his shoes. My face turned a faint pink. He didn't look so amused by the action though. "What the hell woman?! You just ruined my-" Lexy hurries over seeing I am in trouble. Her eyes dart to me angrily. After it seemed like hours of her staring at me she gives the buff guy a puppy eyed look. "Sir I am so sorry. My sister is just well as we can both see very drunk." He looks at her with annoyance in his eyes. "Well no fucking kidding." He says then he storms off to somewhere. Lexy gives me a 'I am going to kill you' look. "Kay how on earth do you manage to pee on someone without knowing- you know what never mind don't answer that question." She says with a very irritated expression on her face. We turn to leave but the buff man is back this time he looks more pissed than before. "I will send you the bill." He says as he gives Lexy a paper. But my stomach was turning and I felt like crap at this moment. I was too dizzy to see what they were doing at this point. My eye sight faded to black and I fell into a deep sleep."

I am Isabel (published)✔️ by HereIAmAngel

Meet Isabel. She gets along with most people, not super popular but she's not a wallflower either. Isabel doesn't need anyone else in her life not to protect her and certainly not Derek and his crew. She lives with her brother and father . They share a secret that could land them in jail. She can fight almost anyone and win, this girl kicks a$$. Yet Isabel has a past that features in her nightmares, making her afraid to sleep alone. --- "Hey?" I heard but didn't reply. "Hey!" I still didn't reply. A hand grabbed my arm and I twisted out of it on instinct. There was a glimmer of surprise in his eyes as I faced the last of the Five in the now almost empty hallway. Derek. Almost as tall as Mac. Black hair like the twins with ice cold blueish grey eyes. Same fighters build, six pack and all but not as soft as Mac or as feminine as the twins beauty. He was more rugged. I did understand the appeal of these boys but there were a lot of good looking guys on the swim team too and I did go with Jarred when he had fights. "You know we wouldn't let anyone hurt you right? Even if Jarred isn't around, we'll be here to protect you." I blinked. I blinked again. Nope, he was still standing there with the same serious expression. Derek, the unofficial leader of the Five, the boy every guy would want to be friends with and every girl would love to sleep with, was offering me his protection. I did the only thing that made sense in that situation. I burst out laughing. I was laughing so hard that I doubled over and when I glanced up at him I just cracked up again. He stood through it all without any emotion on his face, there was barely a glimmer of anger in his eyes. If anything I might have seen some surprise. I patted him on the arm and winked. "You. Are. Funny! I don't need you idiots to look out for me. But thanks for the thought." With that I quickly made my way to class.

Kiss Gone Wrong by devika2901

I was pinned to my bed. He left me no option but to stay in place. I tried to control my reactions, but couldn't help but sigh as Matt nipped my earlobe. His lips travelled down my neck, sending jolts of electricity all over my skin. His hands slipped under my t-shirt up and he swirled patterns all over my stomach. My mind was going numb and I was losing control. "Bailey!" My mother called from below and Matt placed his lips over mine so that I couldn't call out for help. I tried to push him away, but he simply held my hands in his. We heard my mother climb the stairs to reach my room and Matt smirked at me. "Let's see you talk your way out of this." Matt said and ran out of the window. The door opened and my mother gasped. "Bailey!" ************************************************************* Meet Bailey Stanford. The girl who everyone knows, but not everyone is friends with. The one who is invited to her share of parties, but prefers movie nights with her friends. The girl who is nice to everyone but will kill if someone insults the people she loves. Headstrong and opinionated, Bailey is not one to follow the crowd. Meet Matt Anderson. The boy who is so popular, that he allocates people to attend parties for him. The type of guy who will crash any party as long booze is available. The boy who has two girlfriends in a day. His attention span is next to nothing. Witness the drama created when these two crash into each other at a party late one night. It's going to be a roller coaster ride for sure.

Truth or Dare by Iama_simp4life

I shuffled closer to Cam and whispered in his ear "This sucks. Remind me why we're here again." He chuckled and put his arm around my shoulders, "Because," he smirked, "Alisha's here. And she's super hot. Might try and fuck her tonight." Fuck her? FUCK HER? EW. OH MY GOD. God I love this man to death, the moon and back and whatever cheesy shit people say in movies - but, oh my days! That is so disgusting. He never used to be like this. And those girls just follow him like rats while he's the piper. "Perv." I muttered under my breath and shoved his arm off me. "You nasty, asshole." I said, rolling my eyes and putting my head in my hands. "Cameron, my man" I heard, when I lifted my head up. Guess it's Cam's turn now... I don't even know why we're even here. He always picks dare and they'll probably make him make out with someone, or take six shots or something. "Dare." he said, looking ready for this, like it wasn't completely obvious what they were going to do. I rolled my eyes. The boy looked around the room where everyone was sitting, until his eyes landed on me. "I dare you, to make out with Azalea." ... ||Azalea Davies|| 17. She's your ideal nerd, minus the glasses and braces. Always in the library. Her head stuck in books all the time. Her main focus on studies. ||Cameron Phillips|| 17. He's not popular... yet. Ever since he joined the football team, he's become one of the snotty popular boys. Girls ending up in his bed every other day. This includes fighting. They're best friends. Always there for each other, ready to kill when something happens to the other. When Azalea suffers from issues at home, Cameron's always there to let her sleep over and when he's come back from his occasional fights, she's always there to patch up his wounds. But when they play a game of truth or dare, and someone dares Cameron to make out with Azalea. Will this change things for them?

"What are you doing?" He glances up at me through his glasses, his bored tone sending a jolt through me as I straddle his lap. I know he's a god at this 'poker face' game, but he needs to realise that his body always tells a different story like how hard he's gripping my thigh right now and how hard he is beneath me. Yet, I can't ignore the power he exudes. There's this strange, dominating energy about him that makes me feel small as if I am a rat being cowered back into a hole. And for Reina Gavril to feel that way? I hate it. I hate him. 𓍼 𝗛𝗘 isn't your typical 'good boy.' He's a quiet, aloof presence yes, but also with a lethal charm and a mind nobody can quite read. He thrives in his solitude, refusing to take anyone's shit because being good doesn't necessarily mean being weak, timid, or a pushover. 𝒷𝓊𝓉 . . . 𝗦𝗛𝗘 is also not just any girl. She is an icon, she's the legend and she is the 𝘮𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵. The 'queen bee' of Schola Stellae, she has it all - flawless looks, charisma, top grades, and a touch of mischief that gets her whatever she wants. She thrives in the spotlight, a party girl; quite the opp of him. Yet beneath that confident exterior is a heart; after all, queen bees rule for a reason, they know when to sting and when to play nice. 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵 is until he rejected one of her rival, prompting her friends to challenge her into making him hers. Tough situation, yes. Summing this up, bad girl with a soft side meets a good boy with a strong twist. And as she sets out on her mission, their opposing worlds clash, creating inevitable rivalry, tensions, heartbreaks and some wildly UNHOLY lessons that might make them go back and forth.
