"Yeah, babe just like that" Declan groaned. 

She could recognize that voice wherever she was, the same voice that whispered 'I love you' to her every night. She muffled a sob with a tinge of sadness growing in her chest, along with anger. It was this anger that fueled her and she forced the door open frightening the dogs in heat glued together on the couch. 

••  ••  ••  ••  ••  ••  ••  ••  ••  ••  ••  ••  ••  ••  ••
Power has always been something people crave but fear altogether. 

But adding curses, doomed love stories and unfairytale-like fairytales is the perfect combination to make a girl combust. We all need that fairytale ending. 

Eloisa has everything planned out; a perfect boyfriend, a protective brother and cool friends. What she doesn't want is a reminder of her past; a father who abandoned her from birth because she was accused of witch craft being born of the petrova clan, her mother whom she lost to an arranged marriage who inturn died of heart break. 

The very last thing she needs right now is a cheating boyfriend who's doing it with everyone, a series of bizarre events with an enstranged dad resurfacing in her life telling her she's the chosen one and a forbidden love which is their doom.

She soon finds that not everyone is as they seem as they all hold secrets which are about to let loose.

But what she certainly doesn't want the most is a great sacrifice which may cost the one she holds dear.

"Tell me. Why won't you tell me?" He asks and I look towards him slowly, "You didn't even talk to me until yesterday! I'm trying to make it so nobody notices me, Kingston. I don't need this." I say and he slowly turns my face towards him, closing my locker and pinning me up against it. "What if I need you?" He asks and I roll my eyes. "Nice one, Hamlet." I say, walking away from him. One of the perks of being short, easily get away from tall people. ❤︎ Kingston Brag is the blonde haired popular guy with baby blue eyes, he's the guy every girl wanted. Every. Single. One. Except for her... Summer Cynthia. She hides in the corners and under black hoodies to hide her scars and bruises, her bloody arms and cuts, she hides her life. But there is one person who is determined to know what happened to her. Kingston Brag. But he has a mission that he's running from. This book contains one sexual scene, lots of bad words, abuse, violence, all that jazz. If you don't want that don't read the book and comment how it's not appropriate or some crap like a mom. There are two lesbians, a gay man, and a bi mother, so don't freak out if you will I'd rather you not read. Also she's a walking contradiction, don't comment about it, I know. #1// badparents // November 18, 2019 #7//teendrama // February 21, 2020 #17//romance//May 08, 2020 #1//abandoned//March 29, 2021 #5//drama//May 14, 2021 #1//fiction//May 15, 2021 #1//popular//May 18, 2021 #1//chicklit//May 22, 2021 #2//highschool//February 20, 2023 #3//teen//February 20, 2023 #3//teenromance//fFebruary 20, 2023
