"Who are you?" I scream, my tiny ten-year-old voice echoing around the room and the person chuckles, "Take a step forward little one. Remove your blindfold." I remove my blindfold with shaky fingers, cocking my head slightly at the sight in front of me. My dad is squatting in front of me, smiling. I take in my surroundings, memorizing the black walls, black ceilings, floors, and lack of a single window. There are tiny holes embedded in a corner, providing the only source of light and air in the entire, seemingly endless room. There is a single black chair in the center of the room but due to the poor lighting, I can't see who is sitting on it.

Learning to be a Vampire
"Fernanda, I'm serious!" Mother yelled again. "It isn't some nasty old hag! Come and see!" "I'm coming, hold on a second!" Fern yelled back, stumbling over the used towels as she exits the bathroom. "Um, Ma? Where are you?" Suddenly Ferns dark grey bedroom curtains open to reveal a very excited looking mother. This can't be good. Nothing good ever happens when someone appears from behind curtains. "Mother, I don't think I want to go--hey!" Fern pretested but was cut off by her mother pulling her into the curtains. But oh man, mother was right. It most certainly was not an old hag. The exact opposite really. Standing outside, across the road at the newly bought house was one attractive man, minus a shirt and add some sexy muscles covered in sweat from hauling furniture and that equals one drooling girl and a perverted mother for checking the man out.Complete
Oh, the shark has pretty teeth dear
Hallelujah, hallelujah, my Smartphone's tone erupted Handel's Messiah like a fanfare to the doomed. I was greeted by the mother and father of headaches, well no one to blame but myself. I swore under my breath profanely, with imagination, apathetically opening my eyes. Rolling over I expected to see the outline of Holly but was confronted with an empty space where only hours before she'd reposed, kind of. At least her attractive perfume still lingered on the dented pillow. She wanted tips from an 'old timer', not sure if I like that term but I obviously fell into that category, in her eyes, I let it pass. I'm a sucker for tall red headed woman with expressive eyes. We'd met at a wine bar then moved to another and another and, well, you join the dots. I WOULD VALUE READERS CONTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK !Complete
Raising Hell
"I starved myself but I never died. I have no idea how I survived that long without food. The floors I slept on where of moldy brick and sometimes a rat would curl up to my neck. I stopped caring. The warmth kept me sane." I took a deep breath and continued. "The worst part was not knowing. Not knowing what happened to my team. Not knowing happened to my city. I couldn't do anything but stare out the tiny slit of light from under the door. That was my life, that light. I didn't know what time of day it was but that light told me I was still alive. Without it would be darkness." I hear her shift in her chair but stay with my eyes closed. "I think the only thing that kept me going was the pain. It sounds strange but I loved feeling it. It made me feel alive, I still had something. It was the only thing that kept me thinking I wasn't one of the rats. Pain, I realized, was worth it. Because the pain reminded me that I was breathing and awake. And that maybe one day if I ever got out that maybe that pain would go away."Complete
Another Love Story
((I Changed the story to Mature because of the language :)) "I have a special ability." "Oh?" He stared at me with sarcasm. "Yes." I took a menacing step towards him. "Oh yeah? What is?" I started to make a detector sound. " I can detect an asshole, a mile away.....Ping, ping, Ping." I trip on my footing and got closer to his face. He smirks, seeing how closed our face were together. He chuckled amusedly. "Be careful doll face. Your inches away from an asshole."Complete
Window Panes
A cool breeze nipped at your exposed legs, causing goosebumps to erupt over your skin. You were curled into your comforter, comfy and safe, your cheek pressed against your pillow. Lips pursed and a small amount of drool seeping into the fabric. A creak came from the corner of your room, slightly rousing you from your slumber. You glanced around, your drooping eyelids barely taking in the scene. In your sleep riddled state, you didn't see him, his large figure stalking towards you. The whites of his eyes shining in the moonlight, it wasn't until you felt a palm slide up your side. Following the natural contours of your body, the emanating from it lulling you to sleep once again. A dip in the mattress, the springs creaking under the weight. Hot breath fanned over your neck, soft lips pressing onto the back of your ear. A deep hum filling your senses, you sighed. Cuddling back into the figure, wanting to get closer to the warm entity. A low chuckle sounded behind you, and then... Nothing.Complete
Protecting The Lead
'Who turned off the lights' 'Why does my head hurt '. I grimace in pain as I try to open my eyes. At first every thing is blurry but it soon starts to clear up and - 'Wow! Is this heaven? Am I dead' I wondered as I stared in complete awe at the blonde blue -eyed angel in front of me. "Hey! You're awake" ~What! Leaving me dazed and confused, the angel rushes off calling out to something or someone, I'm not quite sure. I try to focus on the sound of her voice but the ringing in my ear coupled with the pain makes it impossible. 'Wait! I know that voice. Isn't that -' ARRRGGGHH! A mind numbing pain hits me as I begin to recall fragments of memories. My scream seems to have attracted the attention of the angel who runs back to me muttering words that I cannot hear, but it seems this time she is not alone. I feel myself slipping slowly back into unconsciousness as I take one last look at the blonde angel. "You - you saved me" I believe that it was at this moment I promised myself I would protect Esmeralda - no matter what!
Written Before We Met
There are some stories that begin with love. This isn't one of them. A girl disappears. A man becomes her captor. And somewhere between fear, silence, and fate, two lives become tangled in ways neither of them understands. When freedom finally arrives, she is given the chance to leave everything behind. So why does she return? Why walk back into a story that should have ended the moment she escaped? Perhaps because the deepest wounds are not always caused by cruelty. And perhaps the most dangerous thing in the world is loving someone who doesn't love you back. Or worse... someone who realizes your worth only after losing you. A tale of fate, sacrifice, and a love that arrives when it may already be too late. ༶•┈┈⛧┈♛┈⛧┈┈•༶ This was my 𝙁𝙄𝙍𝙎𝙏 book. It's not perfect. Some chapters are still unedited, and there are mistakes I'll probably cringe at years from now. But I loved writing it. I wanted to read a story like this and couldn't find one, so I created it myself. If you enjoy slow-burn romance, psychological twists, mysteries, and stories that stay with you long after you've finished reading, then this book might be for you.

The Painting
''Hey," I greet them. The scary looking one doesn't spare me a glance. The one with green eyes keeps talking, but the blue eyed one looks up at me for a second then back at his book. He sort of does a double take and his eyes widen as he looks back up at me. "Is this seat taken?'' I ask with a small smile. Blue eyes elbows the other two and they look up at me, one with wide eyes and the other with a stone cold glare. "Is she talking to us?" The green eyed mumbles, his wide eyes not leaving me. ''Uhhhhh did I say something wrong?" I raise my eyebrows, my small smile faltering. ''You're not supposed to be able to see us," the one with the cold glare mutters. What???Complete
