My head felt like it was splitting in two. I could feel the tears prickling behind my eyes again, threatening yet another downpour. Around me, the rest of the cast rushed by, gathering their clothes and bags in preparation for the night ahead. We'd just finished rehearsal and were slated to grab a drink altogether at the bar down the street. It was a ritual I loved and normally made a priority, but tonight I'd have to bail. The pain had become all-consuming-my head pulsed like a sledgehammer, my eyes now wet, on the brink of overflow. Unsure of what was going on, I gathered the shred of residual strength I possessed and used it to get home...

The Secret (Book 1 of the Secret Series)
I gasped and choked in pain. My body felt like it was on fire and I couldn't breathe. I could feel every nerve in me twitch and my body moved with it. No part of me was still. I was pulling at my restraints one minute, and then I was jerking in pain the next. There was no room for being still. I could hear beeping and talking around me, but I couldn't make out any actual sound. It was all jumbled up and confusing. I screamed in pain as it pulsed trough me. I pulled and jerked and pulled and jerked over and over again. My body wasn't in my control, I knew it wasn't and I hated it. I never wanted to be this out of control again. "MAX!" I screamed his name as the worst of the pain came. It was all I could do. There was no getting out of this.Lengkap
Dusk Till Dawn
I am wide awake. At 3 am, and all I can think about is him, turned to his left, left cheek squished onto his pillow, eyes shut, not tight shut but gently shut. Him breathing quietly and a soft light from the window falling upon his face. Sleeping. All I can think about is how he is at peace, sleeping without a care in the world. Even if tomorrow he would wake up stressed and agitated. Right now he is asleep, peacefully, and here I am. Staring at the ceiling, begging to god to stop the pain, my hands entwined together, saying to him that I'm tired and that I'm not as strong as He thinks I am. I still believed in Him, because whenever I lost faith, I got a reason right away to not lose it. My dearest was at peace, he was happy without me. And this time I knew. He was not coming back. He was gone. And all my memories of his smile, his hair, his body scent, his hands, the scars on his body, his two vampire-like teeth, his expressions, his cheesy lines, his eyes. His eyelashes, eyebrows, and the way he used to light up after seeing me rushed in. Of how his eyes didn't shine when we met for the last time. How I missed the special way we used to say goodbye. He loved me. He always had. He put in all his efforts just to see me. He did it all. But he didn't love me, not anymore.Lengkap
Love isn't Real
"Love isn't real" I mumbled looking down at me shaking hands. I felt his breath on my neck as he stood behind me. One of his hands was sliding up my hip to rest on my waist squeezing softy. "Is that what they told you?" He voice was close to my ear making me shiver. His other hand grabbed my chin making me look up and into the mirror we were standing in front of. "Yes" I answer meekly. Declan worked in a place his father owned not by choice but by force. His father ran a Secret restaurant worked by people who didn't have a job. They served in revealing outfits and the customers could treat them however they pleased. Declan was the most liked for his female features and body, he looked just like his mother which his father hated. He father made him feel useless, always saying rude and mean things and overall didn't care about what happened to him. He punished him when he did something wrong and never rewarded him when he was good and did his job well. Declan's dad told him know one loved him and that love wasn't real and Declan didn't think much about it until a mysterious man came into the restaurant and saw how Declan was treated by the rude men there. • (Rude comments will get you muted) #1 in shaking 3/7/25Lengkap

enemy to doctor - the hating game
An unfortunate series of events leads to Lucy waking up in an unknown apartment. The one of her work colleague and former enemy, Joshua. When Josh announces that after she fell and blacked out, he took her to his home instead of an ER to take care of her himself, Lucy doesn't understand. Until he explains that he attended med school for four years before dropping out and changing the industry. Lucy's state of health and a number of unfortunate revelations lead to the need of Josh's medical expertise which throughout the next few days turns out to still not be enough... ---------------------------------------------------- "No. Cut it right there.", his wrist is still in my hand and I hold on to it. "Please don't regret it. I- I could not take that." I'm lucky that there's water streaming down the side of my face from my hair so that he cannot see the tiny tear making its way down my cheek. His pupils widen and his throat bobs as he swallows the rest of his sentence down. Then he leans to the front and softly kisses the tear away. "Never in my life would a thought such as regretting a singular second I have spent with you cross my mind." And with that he pulls me close and hugs my naked shoulders, obviously not minding the water soaking his shirt. I inhale deeply and recite the words in my head like a magical spell. Never in my life would a thought such as regretting a singular second I have spent with you cross my mind. 3rd of March 2o24 #2 in #injury #4 in #clinic #8 in #hospitalLengkap
The Artist's Amour (BWWM) ✓
You know when you were younger and they told you that you could be whoever you wished to be? You could grow up and become whatever you set your mind and heart upon? Yep, well I'm here to tell you that's a complete load of bull. So as I stared across at my fiancé, our hands conjoined as he read his vows- it dawned on me. Getting married at age 23 to a self centered lawyer who viewed me as more of his little prodigé than his actually wife was not what I wanted. Becoming a defense attorney at a record age to a company own by said husband that I'll never be taken seriously in was definitely not what I wanted. And making my parents happy by completely shutting down any hopes and dreams I've ever had. was absolutely not what I wanted. "Nope." I shook my head, glancing between the priest and Jake, my soon-to-be, as I yanked my hands out of his. "W-what?" He stuttered, looking back at me mortified along with everyone else in the chapel. "Fuck this." I shook my head, as I lifted my dress and quickly made my way back down the isle that was littered with people I'd never seen before. So, few hours later and I'm on the first flight to Maine. Why? Well, shit happens. *this book is uneditedLengkap
