A woman comes across a boy, and she can't take her eyes of him. Little did she know that this would be the biggest mistake she'd had ever made.
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged."
Short story.
I was feeling particularly nasty writing this. It's basically a take on "Don't judge a book by it's cover."
Please leave a comment with whatever constructive criticism (or maybe even appreciation TEEHEE) you have for me. It only makes me a better writer.
All opinions welcome! :)

PJ's Daycare: The Accident
(VOICES CLOSED!!!) An accident happened to the children in PJ's Daycare while having a field trip. (Not their fault though, some drunk man decided to drive.) No one got hurt, but the kids remember something.. Not just their memory... But their Past lives' too. (This is an Interactive Book. You can Ask the Characters! [Well, not anymore cause its closed now-]) (Being a voice is open as long as the book is ongoing, but the voice can be only accepted on the latest chapter posted! [Book is finished!]) (I usually update this book around 5 days after the last chapter.) (Even though this only has like 10 Chapters, most of them exceed 1000 words per chapter ahaha-) (Inspired by an Anime called: "My next life as a Villainess: All routes lead to doom!") Original Idea? I think- (The characters do not belong to me.) Date Started: Feb 21, 2021 Date Ended: April 13, 2021Complete
The Deal
(Seven years ago) (Sean) "I will help you with your debts if you do something in return for me." (Skylar) "You can't help me... In case you haven't noticed I'm swimming in debts." (Sean) "I am very much aware of your debts. I'm not saying that I will pay all of them but I can give you enough money for you to pay them gradually." I sigh and I sit on the chair. He sits in front of me, resting his elbows on his knees and his chin on his hands. (Sean) "I know everything, Sky... I can help you." I have no choice... (Skylar) "Okay... What do I have to do?" One night, a stripper meets a hot suited guy. He chooses her to serve him but what happens when he decides he wants more from her? Will she give in to his touch? * A mature story that contains strong language and sexual content.* Note: There is a photo on each chapter. I suggest you don't see it if you're not old enough. *wink* **I realized that this doesn't happen in many books, or none (I haven't read a book where this type of writing was used) but I want to let you know that during the story and when the characters speak, the person's name is in between brackets before the speech. Simply because it would probably get confusing if there wasn't anything that could distinguish who is talking after the speech. I hope you find it convenient during your reading.**Complete
Pretty Lost (Completed)
I'm doing a story based on these three words. Perfect. Stuck. Lost. My friend is also doing this challenge so i hope you enjoy this story! And don't worry i'll still work on my other story!! This story is about a boy who wants to do things the way his home used to live like. . . will he see the flaws in others and judge them or learn to be understanding of others? Read to find out. It is my first few books so this may suck but I'll get better. Super cringe so just switch to one of my other books. Probs won't finish book two of this, if I'm being honest, this wasn't the best. Might rewrite it one day. (Looking back, I was on some sort of drugs cause what was I thinking? I'm surprised people can even find this garbage fire.)Complete

The Thing Called Love
"Don't look at me like that. I promise I will make you feel like a queen, when living here." He said looking straight through me. He came closer and tried to kiss me. I turned my head making him to kiss my cheek instead. "One day you will kiss me. You will learn to love me too and learn to forget about Dakota Grey." He whispered taking a piece of my hair and tucking it behind my ear. "I will never love a monster like you." I said. "I have a feeling you will." He said, giving me a one sided smirk. "You don't know me." I said. He chuckled. "My love, of course I do." He said. "No you don't, we just met." I replied. "So many things you need to learn." He said playing with my hair. "Get your hands off me!" I said pushing them back. He gave me a devilish smile and got on top of me. "You don't disrespect your future husband! You will be a good girl and listen to everything I say! Is that clear?!" He growled. I kept my mouth shut and didn't dare to look at him. He grabbed my face with his hands and forcefully kissed me.

I Don't Know If I Should Stay Away [Teen Romance]
my mother always warned me about thief's, heartbreaks and liars, but she never warned me about the boy with a leather jacket and bicker boots, the boy who had those mesmerizing amber eyes that had me from the moment that I first laid eyes on him. although there is one thing everyone tells me to stay away I just don't know if I can. okay this is my first story so please be patient and I promise I will write the most amazing story that I possibly can. also if you guys ever not like my idea please let me know in the nicest way possible and I will try to fix it Thank You!Complete
When the unexpected became the inevitable
"So are we ever going to trust each other?" "Of course we will." He says while also leaning forward showcasing his smile and pearly whites. "So confident Mr Reed." "Of course Miss James. I've read enough books. Watched enough movies to know that the unexpected always becomes the inevitable. In this case myself and you." I lean back and take a swig of water then finally respond, "We'll see if that's true or not." April James had everything any woman could ever want in her life. She had her happily ever after. However, all it took was one ounce of greed to take everything away... After 4 years of working in the same place the memories start to get harder to bear. April's worked too hard to not let anyone take this away from her, even her tormenting memories. How is she surviving? No distractions. Until one day she stumbles across a drunk Alexander Reed. This man is undeniably attractive and also one of the worlds most famous and eligible billionaires. After April helps this mystery guy he can't help but become intrigued about April and why she's so closed off. He's always been used to getting what he wants but he realises it's not an easy game with this woman. Alex goes against his own rules and want to pursue a friendship with April even if she resists. Can she get over the fact that people like Alexander Reed are the ones that caused her so much pain? Maybe they can heal each others wounds? Maybe they aren't as different as they think they are.Complete
Queen of Darkness
Fictional story. When you have been a slave all your life, running and looking over your shoulder is not the way anyone wants to live. But when a girl born into slavery thinks her life cannot get any worse she is suddenly thrown into a different life, one where humans are not the worst monsters out there and she has to not only learn how to survive but how to trive. Hello everyone and thank you for contemplating reading my story. Before you start I would just like to state a few things. Although I have written a few books (Okay 3 books including this one) I mainly write to relax. This is the first time that I will be sharing my writing with others and I have a huge fear of rejections so please be kind in your comments. I welcome all comments even constructive criticism but please don't be nasty about it. Also, Yes you will most definitely find spelling and Grammar mistakes, and I'm apologizing in advance as English is not my first language but I decided to write in English with the hope that my story reaches more readers than it would if I wrote it in my home language of Afrikaans. Having said that I really hope you enjoy the story line and read all the way to the end. This story is a fictional fantasy but contains sex, violence, strong language, rape, abuse, slavery, blood, vampires, warewolved and witches, and reference to slavery and sexual abuse. If you're sensitive about these type of things or you find the above mentioned topics offensive than please do not read any further. If you do enjoy this story please read the follow-up called Hunting Aurora. I have done a lot of research on specific time areas and subject matters and tried to incorporate as much factual info as possible even though all characters are fictional. I do not condole any form of abuse, rape or violence. I would like to thank the people who encouraged me to finally take the next step to upload my work.Complete
