"Chrissy! Open the door!" 

Just as I'm watering my beautiful kumquat and trying to distract myself, the phone beeps, and I growl as I realize that I'm not the only whose day was ruined because of Mr. fungus's annoyingness.

Is this your hot boss shouting your name from the street? - Ginko

Determined to rip his head for the endless hours of gossip he's just granted my neighbors, I storm out of the kitchen and stand on the single vacant tile of my jungle of a balcony. 

"What do you want?" I try to keep my voice as low as possible, but the windows opening across the entire street tell me that this is by no means a private conversation. 

"We need to talk."

"You mean that you want to find a new way of sucking the sap out of me, and using me like you always do?"

"I'm sorry for what happened, Chrys. I truly am!" he finally concludes, his eyes refusing to let mine go.

A wave of Aws passes over the street as the single ladies strategically standing on their balconies swoon at the fit for a rom-com scene. Little do they know is that they just fell for another trick of the master of opportunism.

Planning on hissing on him and going back in, I take a deep breath and brush a hand through my tangled hair. Much to my dismay, my elbow knocks one of the many aloe vera pots, and soon enough, it rains plant and flowers on the guy as the audience gasps in terror.

In Your Arms by TremaineKatie

"I didn't want a fight." I look down in my lap sadly, "That's one of the reasons why I didn't want to tell you." Chris walks over and sits next to me. He puts an arm around my body, pulling me closer to him. He kisses the top of my head. I feel like it's my fault. Small tears escape the corner of my eyes. "Stop it." Chris says to me in a soft but commanding voice "Stop crying, Beautiful. Stop crying." "It's all my fault." I sniff, "Now you lost all your friends because of me. That's not what I wanted! It's unfair to you, Baby!" Chris gives me that look again. The look that a parent gives their child when their child explains why they took their car keys, because they thought they would never se their parents again. THAT look. His face goes soft and he holds me tenderly in his arms. He brushes the hair out of my face, his fingertips lingering on my skin. Then I realize that this is my moment. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Katie Morgan has always been an awkward and very shy girl. Due to overprotective parents, she hasn't had her first kiss, her first boyfriend, and definitely not her first time. Now that Katie has gotten out into the world, she meets an older guy in his late 30's named Christopher "Chris" Eaton. Her beauty and doll like face makes him want her. But when things end up in the bedroom, Katie realizes she's still not ready to have sex. How will Chris react? What happens after that terrible, awkward date? It may just be a fairytale. For copywrite purposes, I want to clarify that this is my ORIGINAL WORK, it belongs to TremaineKatie (me) so don't get any ideas 🤨 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Voted: #3 hotmen #24 olderguy #9 olderguy #299 happiness #607 breakup #526 breakup #40 chrisevans #28 chrisevans

Medium Latte for Ell-yot Hayul by gemmalanebooks

[Watty 2025 Winner] [Slow Brew Series 1 of 2] [Completed] Look, I didn't mean to embarrass myself the first time I walked into Brewing Grounds. Or the second. Or...every other time since. But something about the place-and the barista with the messy ponytail and the glasses that she pushes up her nose-makes me forget how to form actual sentences. Bea. Her name's Bea. She spelled mine wrong on my cup the first day (Ell-yot Hayul), and now I'm kind of obsessed. Not with her. With medium lattes. With her handwriting. With the little hearts she scribbles on my cups. Okay... maybe a little bit with her. The point is: I'm a walking disaster around her, and I'm pretty sure she knows it. And okay, maybe I started showing up every morning at exactly 7:30 just to see her. And maybe I've been reading up on how to flirt because I thought that might help (it hasn't). But honestly, what's the worst that could happen? I embarrass myself again? (Already done that.) Spill coffee on my tie? (Happened last week.) Accidentally fall in love with the barista who writes flirty notes on my coffee cups? Oh, wait...

The Men Next Door by wildfirehoney

✅ Complete ✅ When Campbell Kramer accepted a job offer in Manhattan, she never could've imagined what the city had in store for her. Namely, two handsome men who live on either side of her new apartment. One is older, one is younger. One is introverted, one is extroverted. One is serious, one is playful. Both of them want her attention. What could go wrong? ☲☲☲☲☲ ☆Brooks☆ My neighbor was the one to close the distance between us. She did it quickly--like she was scared the moment would pass away forever if she let another millisecond go by--and I rested my hand on the side of her face to steady her. Something about my touch must have given her courage. ♡Campbell♡ The men finally greeted each other while I snipped the green, woody stems and plopped them into the tallest mug I owned. Their sentences were short and awkward, and as I rearranged the blooms for the umpteenth time, the realization that they'd told each other what happened hit me like a south-bound train. I don't know why I didn't expect that. They were best friends, after all. I was just the girl next door. They had no loyalty to me, no reason to keep our time together a secret. ☆Luca☆ Her lips met mine slowly, softly, hesitantly--like she wasn't so sure kissing her neighbor was the best idea--and I responded just as delicately. But when her hand made its way into the back of my hair, our bodies melded together like a lust-struck alloy. And the only hope of separating us was to add more heat. ☲☲☲☲☲ Featured by: 📙 @Wattpad • Love Triangles 💘😈 (July 2025) • Spicy Summer Reads (July 2024) • Endless Reading Mode 🧡 (Jan 2024) • Summer in the City 🥵 (June 2023) 📕 @Romance • Love Triangle (April 2025) • New Adult (June 2024) 📘 @Ambassadors • Hot Encounters (Dec 2024) 📗 @ChickLit • Rom-Com (Oct 2025) • Ambassador's Picks (Jul 2025) Awards: 🥈 Romance runner-up (The Prime Awards 2023)

''So, do you wanna go back to my place, eat some pizza, watch a Disney movie and maybe fall hopelessly in love?'' I laugh and nod. Blake's whole face lights up and he leans in brushing a strand of hair away from my eyes before his lips crashed down on mine and we were kissing. His lips come away from mine and he smiles at me, rubbing his lips together. ''You taste like strawberry'' He murmurs in my ear. 𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭?

• the fear of love • "It's quite the smell, isn't it?" I nodded at his answer. He squeezed my waist, "Do you know what your perfume does to me, Miss Sánchez?" He asked but I didn't answer. "I asked you a question, answer me. Do you know... what your perfume does to me?" I shook my head no. He let out a dark chuckle from the back of his throat before grabbing my left wrist. I didn't know what he was doing... But my eyes widened as he placed my hand on his crotch. ------------ "Just..." I stopped as he started speaking, "Just one thing before you leave" I turned around, as he leaned on the refrigerator. I found my eyes staring at his body, starting from his jaw, to his neck, to his chest, that was visible due to few of his buttons being open but I quickly darted them up to meet his eyes before I would go any below than that. He was already smirking, "Tell me one thing before you leave, Miss Sánchez" he began. "How loud do you think you'll scream, when I have both of your wrists pinned on the bed as I fuck you?" ------------ A certain ginger haired girl, runaway from home, a place where she learned that love isn't something to be given or taken. A place where parents should feel like home but felt like hell. A place where she started fearing love.

Does she start chasing feelings for him or runs behind her dream? What happens when they try to avoid each other but stumble back into each other's paths?

billionaire's love by miss_dreamyhead

Aimlessly, Donna was plodding sluggishly. The clock had hit the 4 am. She was in the search of peace and was wandering on countryside to find serenity. She wanted her mind to stay tranquil rather than filled by chaos. It was still dark. Moon was glinting. Everyone was in deep slumber but she was restless and plodding. It was the end of spring in Italy. She was at the EUR district. She looked at the beauty of that place. The trees of cherry blossoms bloomed already. But some splendid beauty of those blossoms still alive. She stirred and moved forward. A single blossom bloomed and landed on her cheek. She thumped it and looked. It was like blossoms wanted to say, "stay happy and enjoy the beauty of this world. Don't let anyone to invade your tranquil life. Let the thing dropped on their own." Again, a blossom landed on her nose. The blossoming started. She curved her lips into a smile. "Daughter, always remember that these cherry blossoms are the flower of birth, so delicate and fragile like a human existence. It cherishes and blooms the world and then disappears leaving behind their rare splendour beauty." She was reminding her mother's word when she was five, which made a gush of blood flow into her veins. --------------------------------------------------------- Date- 6 July, 2020, from today, I am going to edit my this book again as it is not upto mark for me and I want to do justice with my book!! Caution- i write the story when I was 16, so it may become cringe sometimes.

*** Why are you still here Mr Wellington?" I asked as I clutched my bathrobe to cover my body well. I don't want the scenario of my bathrobe falling off. "You've not answered me, who's that guy?" He asked "You mean Darlington?" "Da... What?" He raised his brows "You heard me, I work for you Mr Wellington, as your PA, you have no right to ask me about my private life, who I hang out with or talk to isn't your business! I don't poke my nose in your affairs so don't poke your nose in mine!" I shot at him in anger. "Listen you have every right to be mad at me and I don't blame you, I just need you to listen to me" he said firmly "Whatever you say won't change anything Mr Wellington" "Great! I'm sick and tired of trying to reason with you, I'm not interested in explaining myself anymore, but I want you to know one thing, strong relationships are built on the foundation of trust, relationships without trust or forgiveness are bound to fail, just like ours" he said and stormed out I slumped on my bed and different thoughts ran through my mind. His statement echoed in my head "strong relationships are built on the foundation of trust, relationships without trust or forgiveness are bound to fail, just like ours" *** Read and enjoy DEPTH OF PAIN #51- adc... out of 292 stories (december 1st 2018)

The Rise of Raven (18+) ☑ by Zondra_Allison

(Steamy) This is a standalone spin off from the Distorted Windows Trilogy. You do not have to read them first but is recommended. THIS IS AN EROTIC ROMANCE! IT IS RECOMMENDED 18+ for vulgar language, very explicit sex scenes and some violence. (I tried to post an excerpt from the most tamed part of the book. Hahaha. The sex scenes are intense.) Excerpt: My hands moved to his hair, my fingers sliding through the thick locks, urging him to move where I wanted to feel him most. Placing soft gentle kisses down to my inner thigh, he then moved his head to the other leg, repeating the process. The teasing was becoming too much, my legs parting as I gripped his hair, trying to tug him towards my center. His soft chuckle caused hot breath to fan over my folds, a gasp escaping as my head pushed back against the pillow under my head. "Please Kai." "Mm, I love the sound of you begging." His tongue flicked out, sliding up and down my slit at a slow tortuous pace. "Tell me what you want, Raven." Panting, my hands fisting his hair, my hips thrust forward. "I need more." He growled, a delicious feral sound as he buried his face between my thighs. *** Lilly Vanderbrooke and her twin brother are both running from a past that they would rather forget. Moving back to the hometown and the house that they were born in, they quickly become acquainted with their new neighbor. Quiet, reserved Lilly discovers that her new neighbor is awakening something in her that has been dormant for years. Kai Carter comes from a troubled childhood and has done some really shady things in his past. He may have a less than desirable reputation, but there is so much more than meets the eye. When he first lays eyes on the gorgeous Raven-haired beauty, something deep inside instantly draws him to her. From their very first encounter, sparks fly, and the connection is intense on both sides. Join them on their journey of growth, self-discovery and electrically charged sexual attraction!
