After I woke up in the hospital bed, my mum and sister looking at me with sad sympathy, I knew something was seriously wrong. Then I remembered: the projects, the sting as a bullet grazed my skin, the puddle, the live wire. I destroyed my own leg. There wasn't anything from my players, which pissed me off. Not because I was overly sentimental, just the fact that my bloody nerve endings were shot!
"Where's Mary?" I asked out of instinct, my tone soft and scared that she'd abandoned me too.
Harry confirmed my fears when she shook her head and had the mixed expression of anger and pity. "But, someone did leave something for you. If that means anything to you" she said softly
I noticed a cane by my bedside, and it took me by surprise. I searched for a note but I it was fruitless. But it smelled like yew trees, dirt, books, harmless chemicals, and nicotine. Sherlock. I need to apologize to Sherlock.

I Loathe You
"Why?" she asked him, her voice trembling with emotion. "Why do you hate me so much?" Tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes, cascading like a waterfall down her cheeks. He watched her silently, his expression cold and unforgiving. As she reached out to touch his hand, he instinctively pulled away, his gaze filled with a burning intensity that sent shivers down her spine. "Why?" she pleaded, her voice barely above a whisper. "Why are you asking me now?" he retorted, his voice dripping with anger. "After coming back into my peaceful life, you destroyed everything I had built over so many years." She continued to cry silently, her heart heavy with regret and sorrow. "There's no turning back now," he said, his tone laced with hate. "You brought this upon yourself." : : : She is sinner !

The Situation
A few snippets so far: I felt naked in front of him. He's stripped me bare, pulled back my flesh, cracked open my rib cage to literally have my heart in his hands. He has the power to finish me off with one forceful squeeze or help hold all the pieces together while I work on mending and healing it. **** I take this time to breathe in the stale peacefulness of the room and wait for my body to properly wake up to get started with another day. My thoughts are soon abruptly stopped when I hear heavy breathing next to me, then I can feel the rise and fall of someone's chest and the heaviness of something wrapped around my torso. The imaginary glue in my eyes disappears as they open in a flash. To my utter disbelief and confusion, I find Harry sleeping...in my bed...with me. What, when how...what in the world is happening?! My internal panic worsens when I realize if he's here he saw the broken glass and blood in the room. FUCKING HELL! "Don't freak out, don't freak out," I talk out loud to myself but it's not fucking working. **** Last fucking chance to tell me I'm wrong and you're not hoeing around then sleep in my bed!" I say as harshly as I can. She doesn't say anything, doesn't even bat an eye at what I said. I pick up her phone on my nightstand and throw it at the closed door and watch her body tense up in anger. Her fists are white from how tightly she is clamping her fingers in her palm and her jaw is clenched. "You said it yourself, we're just friends. Friends don't act jealous like this," she quietly speaks. "I am not jealous; I couldn't give a fuck less. Have nothing to be jealous of." She takes a step back like I hit her, I can see her shattering right in front of me. "You know your way out. Get the fuck out of my apartment now," she walks over to grab her phone that bounced off the wall and walks out, she stops before she closes the door all the way.
Ghost City
"I'm sorry," I apologized as I watched her break down even more. There was a pang in my chest as I stared at her. Fiore. I took a beautiful flower and crushed all of its petals. Not being able to bare the sight of her being so broken, I stood from the bed and walked to the door before hitting the lights. "You should get some sleep," I suggested as I turned my back to her and Aurora and left the room. I then went into the now empty living room and spread out on one of the long sofas. Despite how comfy the sofa was, I knew I wouldn't be getting much sleep tonight. All I could think about was the sight of Sagacity being so hurt by what I had done. I had made her a promise that the next time she'd cry, it would be from being happy. I broke that promise. I even broke her heart, and that was the last thing I had ever wanted to do. Whatever consequences I had to face was well deserved. I didn't deserve Sagacity, and she didn't deserve my ill treatment. If she wanted nothing to do with me, I would have to accept that, despite how hard letting her go would be. I had made my bed, and I alone would lay in it.Complete

To Keep You
Love is a treacherous snare. It lures you in with sweetness, intoxicates you, convinces you that surrender is safety. Like a mosquito drawn to blood, you crave it even as it drains you. Like honey to a bear, it promises comfort while hollowing you out. And when you're weakest, it strikes with venom sharp enough to kill. Love has tried to claim me too, fixing its gaze on me like a lone star against a midnight sky. But I've learned its patterns. I know its games. I will not be ensnared again. Love may feast on the naive, on the hopeful, on those who believe it cannot harm them. I am not one of them. I am an oleander, beautiful and deadly, guarding my heart with quiet precision. Come too close and you will taste the poison of my warning. I will protect myself, even if love calls it cruelty. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ Second Book In 'To Love A Godly Man ' series.

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 woke up in a hospital bed. Sitting in the chair next to me was the one and only: Luke. The one person I didn't want to see here. The one who caused this mess. "Baby, I was so worried about you! As soon as I got a call, I found the earliest plane back here. Are you ok? Baby tell me you're ok!" He choked between sobs. Maybe he wasn't as bad as I thought he was...Complete
Is it too late to say Sorry?
"The fuck you are leaving me." His roar cracked through the hall like lightning. Ara didn't blink. She stood there, calm as death, done to her core. No tears. No tremble. Just a weary exhale as she turned her back on him - the one thing he never thought she'd do. Before she could take a step, his hand shot out, gripping her arm like he was holding on to life itself. "Where are you going, Ara!" His command shook the pack. But she wasn't his to command. Not anymore. Ara ripped her arm free with a force that made even his wolf recoil. "Don't. Touch. Me." Her aura slammed into him, cold and merciless. "You think I'll stand here and watch you mate and breed her?" she hissed, every word a dagger. His throat bobbed. "She meant nothing." She laughed - sharp, broken, brutal. "Yeah? That's why you were fucking her in your office? Couldn't even hide the scent of your betrayal." "Ara, it was a mistake-" She stepped closer, eyes blazing. "Your mistakes come in episodes, Alpha. Season one, season two, season three. You don't make mistakes. You make choices." He swallowed hard. "I don't need her. I need you." "Lies," she spat. "Every damn sentence you breathe is a lie. I can't even look at you without feeling sick." He flinched like her words physically hit him. "That female behind you?" she pointed, not bothering to glance. "Perfect for you. Go mark her. Breed her. Hell, fuck her for all I care." Her voice cracked - but she kept going, blade steady even when bleeding. "I don't need you. Not anymore." His knees crashed to the floor. The mighty Alpha. On the ground. For her. "Ara... I'm sorry. I'm really fucking sorry." His voice broke like he finally understood what loss tasted like. She stared at him with a sad, devastating smile. "Isn't it too late for that, Mate?" One tear escaped - and she crushed it away with her thumb. Then she turned. Walked. Didn't look back. But he didn't chase her. Because he knew. He didn't just lose her. He wrecked her.Complete
