What would you do if random marks made themselves at home on your skin?
I got my first tattoo early on in life. A few hours after my birth in fact.
Now before you gasp and question my parents' sanity, first know that they had nothing to do with it. The tattoo just kinda appeared. It's still there to this day: a plain date written in roman numerals on the inside of my left wrist.
VI-VII-MCMXCVII
The sixth of July, nineteen-ninety-seven.
Now, seventeen years on, I had to find my match.
I had to find The Match.

The Sweet Silver Song || An Ashton Irwin fanfiction
We were all born with a tattoo on our left wrist; a countdown to the exact moment we would first look into the eyes of our soul mate; and I was going to meet mine tonight, around 8. My parents were soul mates; my grandparents were too; my brother had met his a few months ago and he’d been ridiculously in love since then. Everything around me seemed to work out just the way it was supposed to but I couldn’t help but be really skeptical about the whole thing. A part of me thought that people felt like they had to spend the rest of their life with the person that stood in front of them when their timer read ‘O’ and therefor convinced themselves that they were in love. Love was more than that to me; and no tattoo was going to tell me who I had to give my heart to, that was for sure.Complete
Second Chance
I did not know how long exactly had passed, but finally I opened my eyes. I was lying in my own room, in the house which I bought myself. What exactly had happened? Was I dead? My head hurt, but I ignored it and sat up. I rubbed my forehead, and that was when I realized the scar on my finger. I got it when I was cooking with John and Edward, as I accidentally sliced my finger majorly once. It all seemed like a nightmare, with what happened with the twins, but this scar proved that they were all true. And I realized my clothes were soaking wet, just like how they were before my leap— So I did not die and ended up in my own house? What was happening? I looked at my bedside clock, and saw that the date was two years ago. And today was the day when I first met the twins, I could clearly remember that. Looked like I had been transferred to the past.Complete

Scars Can Fade// A Luke Hemmings Fanfiction
I cut through my skin making an "x" on my wrist. "This is why I don't trust people... " I thought. "He doesn't understand the pain I go through, no one does." I cut through my skin again making a deeper cut as blood rushed down my arm. "Everyone I meet leaves me. He's just like all the others. He would stay if he cared. It's all my fault isn't it? I drove him away with all of my nonsense, carelessness, and stupidity." Negative thoughts rushed through my head as the blade ran through my skin one last time before I blacked out.

"I gave you a chance to leave and never come back, why didn't you take it?" I looked into those deep grey eyes that I fell for. "Because I wouldn't have my wife sitting right next to me on that train ride." I answered truthfully. ☔︎☔︎☔︎ He has never met someone as mean as her. The glare on her face almost seemed permanent. The only words that fall out of her mouth are ones that will leave you tarnished and torn, making you second guess where you went wrong. Even worse, she never spoke, more like she grunted responses. When he first laid eyes on her, he fell in love with her tattoos, her attitude, her charm. He didn't understand why he kept coming back? He was intrigued with her. No matter what she said or did to him, he kept coming back. He was impatient but would wait for her. . . . She never understood how someone could keep a smile on their face everyday. The way he always kept a positive look on life. He never frowned. He was the flavour bubblegum that everyone wanted. The go-to ice cream flavour that you always get on a sunny day. That one summer vacation that you'll never forget. She hated his smile, his laugh, his eyes. She hated that she wanted to see that smile everyday. She hated that she couldn't stay away from him. She would happily set the world on fire but never let a flame touch him. ☔︎☔︎☔︎ All Rights Reserved 2022ⒸsyriacaxComplete

Stepbrother's Sin 18+ | Standalone | The Kensington Series - Book 2
Without warning, I reached down and gave her ass a hard smack. "That's for spray painting my car," I said. Her breath hitched, and she bit her lip, trying to suppress a smile. "You're such a caveman." "Caveman? How about this?" I said, smacking her ass again, harder this time. She moaned, and I could feel her responding to me, her body betraying her defiance.

Lethal Obsession
"...many spirituals recognize that when dark one appears he is most beautiful, most wonderful and most engaging. The truth only comes out later..." Tara. University student with many friends, complicated relationship with her parents, and weird obsession with buying heels. Even though she seemingly had everything she could ever wish for, something was missing, something that would fill her life with adrenalin and fire. She wished for something new, something that will turn her whole world upside-down, something passionately wicked. Mateo. Man with a dashing and equally dangerous look. He was dark, mysterious, possessive, controlling, passionate - everything she has ever wanted in a lover. When she first saw him, standing by the entrance of the club, calmly smoking a cigarette as if there was no brawl happening before his eyes - she was fascinated. She thought he was the most beautiful, interesting, and tempting person she has ever seen. Yet, he was something else too, something she didn't know, something she was bound to regret ever finding out. "Be it heaven or hell. Be it life or death. She was his." There is this one thing that can be learned through history lessons: Not all kingdoms and monarchs are the epitome of goodness and honorableness therefore not every prince is the reincarnation of the most beautiful dream. In fact, in most cases, there is something deeply rotten in their beings. It is truly tragic that they are served to young girls on a crystal plate. ---------×--------- Just to make it clear, this is not a fantasy book Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0ghEcse5UA Cover made by: @niXieDust_Complete

The Dreamers (Editing)
I couldn't stop trembling even more now. I calmed down a little more and checked my arm again. I was correct, I wasn't hallucinating. On my shoulder was a tattoo. It was a character of some sort-- in a different language. It looked like it was Chinese mixed with Islamic calligraphy. The skin around my arm was red and irritated. The symbol stuck out like a vein. I hyperventilated. I thought I was going to have a panic attack. I had to sit there, on my bed, and command myself to calm down. "I'm dreaming. I'm dreaming. This isn't real," I whispered. I checked the mirror again and searched all over my body to see if I had any other markings, but so far this was the only one. I shut my eyes, trying to force myself to wake up, but this was real. And for the first time, out of all the panicking, my vision went black.Complete
