They sat across from each other, silently looking into one another's eyes. Mason reached over the flower pot and passed the cigar to her. "Lola," his other hand resting on her knee, "it's gonna be okay." No it wasn't. He knew that, but there was nothing he could say to fix it, and he also knew that. Comfort was the only option, and he had never been good at that.
-
Society has expectations, and Mason has never been one to let the people around him down. That is if you're excluding his Mother, his best friend, Max, and about ⅜ of the population of Boston. On the other hand, Mason had an array of skills. To begin, he was excellent at drinking and could drink nearly anyone under the table. Along with this, Mason can candy flip without any distressing signals all the while balancing on a handstand. If that didn't impress the local police he didn't know what would.
-
Lola was less focused on society's expectations. In fact, she almost purposely went against societal conformity. It wasn't in her nature. She was rash in her decision making and reckless in most every situation. The one thing she completely and utterly despised though was being misunderstood. Lola was bipolar, and while Mason was spending his time trying to accomplish absolutely nothing. Lola was being thrown into psychiatric evaluations like they were an average afternoon tea party.
+ violence and strong language
BTW also a lot of drug references so beware.

"Listen very carefully: never dare to raise your voice at me. Understood?" I nodded slowly. "And only answer me if I ask you something. Is that clear?" His tone was dangerously low. Feeling scared, I nodded without looking at him. "Look at me when I'm talking to you." He put his finger under my chin and raised my head. His eyes were full of arrogance and cruelty. My vision blurred with each passing second. His grip on my chin was strong and painful. "Now answer," he ordered in a husky voice.

A LOVE SONG UNSUNG
He was 23, and she was 18. They stood together in the registry office, ready to sign the papers that would officially make them husband and wife. It was a secret marriage-only his friend and his girlfriend knew about it. He signed first, then handed her the pen with a smile, but her heart raced as doubt and insecurity clouded her thoughts. Was this the right decision? What if his father found out about the marriage? Would his family accept an orphan and a maid like her as a daughter-in-law? What if, after fulfilling his desires, he grew tired of her and abandoned her? She had no one to stand up for her, no one to turn to if things went wrong. Was it true love, or was he simply lusting after her? Why would a billionaire's son want her? He could have anyone-maybe even a movie star-but he chose her. Why? Despite her fears, her love for him was genuine. Slowly, she lifted her gaze to meet his, her insecurities weighing heavy on her heart. He took her hand in his, offering a gentle squeeze, then motioned for her to sign the papers. With a quiet nod, she did. His friends clapped and congratulated the couple, each one signing as a witness on the papers. Now, legally, they were husband and wife. But to the outside world, she was nothing more than a maid in his house.

Stolen Confessions
Em once believed in fairytales. But just like everything else, reality took that from her, too. She learned much too early that sometimes the prince is the worst kind of villain, princesses need to know how to save themselves, and the only way to get your happily ever after is to spend it alone. -- Max has only known two things, endeavor and succeed. Born into a life of power and luxury, he has never felt what it means to want for anything. That is until he meets Em during what is meant to be a friendly cabin getaway. Now, "want" is all he knows. -- Warning ⚠️ This story contains graphic sexual content and depictions of SA, not between MCs. There is mention of mental illness, infertility, addiction, and loss. There are scenes with bondage, light impact play, dub-con(consent given while under the influence), and violence. There are also examples of toxic D/s dynamics, and relationships, that become more prominent later in the series. Please note that I write MMC's that are morally gray at best, but most likely pitch black, and sassy, at least marginally traumatized, FMC's. Read at your own risk.Complete
