"I wanted to give this to you in person," Anubis said, taking a step closer to the girl who was evidently petrified. He handed her a crisp white envelope that had his name written in a cursive scrawl.
With shaky hands, Zaina took the envelope. Not knowing what to do, she performed an awkward curtsy which was met with a hearty laugh from the god. He lifted her chin with a finger and grinned that heart-stopping grin once more.
Anubis trailed the finger up her jaw and laid it beneath her ear. "I'll see you around," he whispered, ghosting his lips over the shell of her ear.
He stood up and walked away as though he had not made a long lasting impact on the young girl before him. After taking a few breaths to calm herself, Zaina opened the envelope.

A Black American, teenage cheer captain for her squad, the Sultan's Flower. We all know how it ends, the story of the sexy cheerleader and the captain of the football team. But this one was different. Amanda, being who she was, never made it any easier to be asked out on a date, or even to prom. Being the Cheer-Captain of her squad with a stiff attitude, she sure knew how to chase them off without trying. No doubt, she was the prettiest amongst her mate, and besides her two best friends, Bridget and Elena, Amanda was considered the meanest of her friends, and finding love proved more difficult for her. But was that the case? She doubted as she began to find letters, love letters, hidden inside her locker. Creepy or romantic? Amanda was set on finding the boy behind the letters. Watching her from the far end of the hallway was the one behind the letters, observing every single detail but, could she see him? _________________________________________ Teen fiction winner at #book worm monthly award (June) - - - - - 25/6/2020 3rd place in the NOBLE AWARD 2020 - - - - - 14/7/2020 2nd place in the HEATHER AWARD 2020 - - - - - 11/11/2020 3rd place in the PURPLE AWARD 2021 - - - - - - - 24/1/2021 _________________________________________ 👉*********👈 _______________ Started ~~~~~ April, 25, 2020 _________________________________________ Finished ~~~~~ June, 18, 2020Complete

Book 2 "Anything?" He whispered smirking again. "Yes." She whispered shakily, knowing what the possibilities could be. "I want children." He stated, continuing to caress her neck with his lips. She bit her lip as they trembled. It was the one thing she didn't want yet, but if it meant she would be allowed to go to University then she would do it. She nodded in response, unable to say the word. He stopped and grabbed her hand, tugging her up to their room. She obediently climbed on the bed and laid down in the middle, closing her eyes tightly. Samir straddled her thighs, biting his lip as he stared down at his wife. She was beautiful. She wasn't skinny, but she wasn't fat either. She was somewhere in between, her stomach had a soft curve to it and she was gifted at the top and bottom. He spread her legs, pushing his muscly thigh between hers, leaning over her again. Behind her closed eyes, she could feel tears of fear forming at what would happen. He was touching her rather gently, she preferred if he would just hurry and finish the process, but it seemed he had other ideas. "I'm going to impregnate you one after the other baby-doll." He whispered in her ear, biting her earlobe. She gasped, opening her eyes wide. "I won't be able to study!" She stated shocked as she felt his warm fingers tickle her stomach. "Too late. You already agreed." He smirked against her neck. ♡°•●○___________________________○●•°♡ Zahara, a sweet girl who has just turned 18, was very bright and had a lot of hopes and dreams for her future.

WHEN ROYALS CLASH
At Royal Heights High, Aurelina Oluwatomisin Adeniran rules with quiet authority. As the undisputed queen of her school, she commands respect from her peers with a mix of intellect, beauty, and sheer presence. Her world is one of perfection nothing gets past her, and no one dares challenge her throne. She's built her power through years of cultivating relationships, ensuring loyalty, and leaving no room for weakness. She's untouchable, or so she believes. However, her carefully constructed world is thrown into disarray when Zhiyong Nden Balami, a mysterious and aloof new student from the northern part of Nigeria, arrives at the school. Unlike everyone else, Zhiyong doesn't seem impressed by Aurelina's status, nor does he play by her rules. His calm and calculated demeanor immediately catches her attention-and not in the way she's used to. He doesn't flatter her. He doesn't try to win her favor. In fact, he seems entirely indifferent to her. As their paths cross, Aurelina begins to feel a rare sense of vulnerability, something she hasn't experienced before. The more she tries to break through his defenses, the more she is intrigued by his resistance. What makes him tick? Why does he seem unaffected by her? Is this the one person who might not bow to her?Complete![Love Bound 1: Wings [YA Fantasy/Comedy]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/257266209-256-k106952.jpg)
