Two broken souls in the midst of a crazy world. Two souls running away from their past. There was no light at the end of the tunnel. The tunnel was cracking, slowly closing in. When these two connect, as if they were set on the same path, light creeps in through the cracks, and for or a moment, the tunnel seems to have a way out, but what if it collapses before they make it? - "You saved my life." The words come out as a whisper, I've been dying to say that. I thank god every day that he came into my life when he did. "Fuck Vivian, you don't know how much I needed you." I tear up just a little as he speaks, I don't know the last time I cried happy tears. I bring my hands up to cup his cheeks, resting my forehead against his. "No matter how much I push, I don't mean it. Please don't give up on me." My words seem to relieve him in some way as I feel his shoulders relax. "Even when I'm gone, I'll be by your side, forever." He brings his hand, sticking his pinky out. "pinky promise."I wrap mine around his, placing a kiss on his lips. Warning before you read!! This is my first book! This book will contain topics of SA, eating disorders, and mature content, if any of these things may bother you in anyway, please scroll! I hope when I finish this book I can public a clean version, with a different perspective leaving out these topics, but for now, this is how i've envisioned this story to go! Enjoy -Ash🌸

Evie Baby  (That Baby Collection Book #1) by OneDream1LifeOneLove
34 parts Complete Mature
*complete & edited* Please don't go by my writing on this book, I was fresh on this platform and had no idea what I was doing Eve Madison tries to do everything she can to help her struggling parents. She works and goes to school with her best friend, her sister from another mister, Dream. She puts her family and priorities first, she never thought about love. That is until Damien Westwood comes along. Damien and his three brothers owns Atlanta's number one auto body shop. He's been heartbroken but is willing to try again for his mom sake. When he happens to see Eve in the shop with his younger brother, he wants her and won't stop til he has her. She wants Daminen, but her priorities are her main concern. He fell hard for his Evie baby, and no one fucks with what's his. Follow Damien and Eve as they face a crazy ex and a stalker who just doesn't get it. * "I'm going through a lot right now, with family and all. There wouldn't be any time. That's not a good start for a relationship." She said watching him for his reaction. "Who says there's a certain way to start a relationship? I understand that family comes first, even education. But if I could see or talk to you for an hour at least, I'll be fine with that." She was still unsure, "I still don't know.. why me though?" "Cause I want you. I claimed you the moment I saw you." "I'm not an object." "You're not, but believe me beautiful when I say you're mine. And I always get what I want." * Same thing as my other stories, there is very heavy sexual tension and content. I don't drag out feelings for two people who care for each other. This is a fictional story so some info may not be accurate. Enjoy!
