dystopia emily future government harry small system town unhappy

Emily was the last person they expected to rebel. Which also made her the most powerful.

Emily's life was starting to seem pointless: she didn't love her partner, she had few friends - though none that she'd run into a burning building to save. However she stuck to the rules and painted a smile on her face just like everyone else had to.

But when she came across a stranger lurking in her friend's house, she got lost in a secret that could destroy her. 

Set in a dystopia called Eriton, this story follows Emily as she battles the system, trying to escape with her life and find what the world is really like beyond the city walls.

***** I promise this story does get more interesting - about chapter 6 - with the arrival of Harry (and NO that is not Harry Styles). So if you persevere through all of the introductions, you shall be rewarded! *****All Rights Reserved

Stepped Up [COMPLETE] by Oddchildout

TW: THIS STORY INCLUDES SE*UAL A*SULT "You have a daughter?" Jack asked me as he watched Elena come running into the living room. Her school backpack was hanging on her elbows, and it hit her butt as she ran. Jack looked from me to Elena as she ran over to me, wrapping her little arms around my leg. Elena's cute brown curls bounced as she moved, and her big brown eyes shone as they looked from me to Jack. "Mama, who's he?" She asked me, her tinkly little voice ringing in my ears. "He's a friend of Mama's; why don't you go into the kitchen and wait for me, baby?" I asked her as I stroked her hair, and she looked suspiciously at Jack before nodding. She walked away slowly, eyeing Jack as she did. "You have a daughter?" He asked me again, and I looked into his eyes, trying to gauge his feelings on this matter. "Is it so bad if I do?" I asked, standing with my hands on my hips. "No, I hope to get to know her when you're ready." He said, and I blinked, a little astonished that he would be so cool with me having a child. Most dominant male wolves are against the idea of their mates ever having been with another. Hope Mayson was only 18 when her whole world shifted, and her best friend died. She died and left everything to Hope, including her baby daughter, Elena. To keep Elena safe from her father, Hope took her newly adopted daughter and ran. For 5 years, Hope kept Elena safe until Hope's mate, Jack, came into their lives, and soon the past catches up with the present.

When Life Shifts by TopazRoze

Arianna Jo Coulter hates starting a new job, at twenty-five she'd been working as an ER nurse in her hometown since she graduated from nursing school. The problem with that is, she knew everyone coming in and out, making her job hard at times. One of the hardest things about being in a small town is relationships and when they end. Ari started dating Eric in college, at first he was so sweet and caring. After she graduated, got a job, he continued with his schooling due to his studying to be a doctor, they just didn't see each other as often. Eric started changing, yelling all the time, putting his hand on her in anger. So before it could go to far, Ari breaks up with him, decides it's time for a change, and applies to several different hospital's in bigger towns far from home. Problem is before she finds out if she gets a new job, her parents and younger sister are killed in a wreck, hit by a drunk driver. Now Ari is even more determined to move away. Harry Edward Styles loves his job, being the youngest doctor ever hired at John Hopkins University Hospital is something he'll never take for granted. He worked his ass off in medical school to graduate early, doing his clinicals a year before most of the others in his class. Everyone in his family knew his dream was to become the head of the ER someday, and at thirty-two, and two years of being considered one of the top doctor's at the hospital he was well on his way making his dream come true. The only thing missing is love, yeah he dates, on occasion, but nothing serious. Harry wants that heart racing, breath stealing, feeling you get when you know you meet the ONE. Until that happens he has his job and few friends. This story is 100% mine. I'll try my best to make any and all medical terms as real as possible. If I get any wrong I'm sorry. This is my first attempt at writing anything relating to this subject. Thank you for reading if you do. All the love, TopazRoze.

Help Me Pick Up The Pieces {Completed} (GirlXGirl) [TeacherXStudent] by Whatever81

*Destined to Be series book one. Not necessary to read Book one before book two.* Achievements: #1 in Lesbianromance [August 14th, 2019] #4 in Lesbian [September 30th, 2019] #5 in GirlxGirl [August 26, 2019] Avery has had a tough life, a very tough life. She feels like the universe is forever against her. And never thought that, even after everything she's endured, she would ever get her 'Happily Ever After'. Then one day she thinks it may be possible. The woman she had been in love with for years, finally returns her feelings. Avery was finally happy, the woman she loved so much for so long, finally loved her back. Her 'Happily Ever After' was within reach. At least that's what she thought, until the woman managed to shatter Avery's already broken heart into a million pieces. Months later, the wound still fresh, she packs up her stuff and moves back to the city where she was born. She thinks being in a different city and reconnecting with her childhood best friend, will help her heal. But, nothing seems to change at all. At least not until one night about 2 months later. Her friend drags her to a club. To get her friend off her back, she finds a girl to pick up. She expected for it to be a one night stand and that was it but she desperately wants to see the woman again. And she ends up getting her wish but the next time they see each other it's in one of the most unexpected of situations. Just when she was starting to think that she might be able to be happy again, it all goes to crap. Her life seems to be a never ending string of heart break. Maybe the whole universe really is against her. Warning: This story's going to get a bit dark/depressing. And even though it's clearly labeled as such but I still feel I need to say this is a mature girlxgirl story so there will be sex. Also don't read if you have a problem w/ the word fuck because I use it quite liberally.
