𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐃𝐒𝐄𝐘 For the past five years, I've managed to avoid him. I've managed to forget about him and move on from him. Mostly. Alex Lancaster and I have history, but nothing will ever change between us. At least until he shows up at my dad's work in need of a lawyer after he did something stupid, and I'm forced to fake-date him to keep up his public appearance. But I won't let him have my heart. Not after last time. I left for a reason, and this is strictly business. Or would be had it not been for him trying to use his tricks on me. Trying to get me to fall. But I refuse to. I made that mistake long ago, and I'm not about to do it again. But when someone is trying to stalk him and threaten me, I'm learning that there's more to him than what meets the eye. And I find it very hard to stay away, even when I'm being threatened with my life. 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐗 I never would've thought that I'd see her again after a literal run in with each other. After she left five years ago, I figured I'd never see her again. But now she's going to be my fake girlfriend and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to keep her. No matter what secrets she or I hold. But there's a lot more to it than just that. She's hiding something from me, which I know I can't say I'm not because I am, but a past with alcoholism is nothing compared to whatever she's keeping from me, and I'm going to find out what it is. Even if I have a crazy fan stalking me. I made a vow to myself years ago that if I ever saw her again, I'd ask her why she left me that night. Even if it hurts me.

"Can you just take me home please?" I asked again. I put the drink down folding my arms over my chest. "I don't want to." He said grabbing me sitting on the couch. "I wanna get to know you some more" he pulled my feet on his lap unstrapping my shoes. "What you wanna know King" I said with a attitude. "Everything." He said continuing to rub my feet. The conversation started slow, about the kids and about my job, next thing I knew I began telling him everything and when I say everything, even my traumas as a child. He was telling me so many stories about his childhood and his family, especially his relationship with Man. I could tell that he really loved him, probably even more than he loved his self. We were talking for about 3 hours now and I was really starting to like him. I was laughing about a story of him and Man getting whooped when they were 10 for fighting some kids in their neighborhood. I couldn't stop laughing and he just kept staring at me smiling. "You know you beautiful right?" He said steering the energy in the room to something different. "Thank you King" I said looking at him smiling. "Come closer" he said pulling me closer to him. He grabbed my hand kissing it once...twice .... three times before making his way up the side of my neck. Next thing I know I felt sloppy kisses all on my neck. I grabbed his head gently savoring the feeling he was giving me. What was he doing to me...........! India is just trying to do her best. She has 3 kids to take care of, which of whom are not her own. She's only 19 and just needs a day, that's all. She meets someone, he's dangerous and not a a complete night in shining armor. Watch her as she journeys into adulthood. Sequel Coming Soon

"You turn me on," the words slipped out again. A smile invaded her plump lips. "I know I do." I leaned in to kiss her, and she kissed me back. My lips claimed hers as my tongue slipped between them. A slight moan slid out of her. I pulled her closer to me and took her to the bed, only breaking the kiss for a moment. I slid my hand against her ass and she responded by deepening the kiss. My hand climbed up her inner thigh until I reached her panties. I looked into her brown eyes. My eyebrows raised, asking a silent question. She quickly nodded. ***SHORT DESCRIPTION BELOW*** 𝑩𝒐𝒐𝒌 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑴𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝑻𝒓𝒊𝒍𝒐𝒈𝒚. 𝑨 𝑯𝒐𝒄𝒌𝒆𝒚/𝑴𝒂𝒇𝒊𝒂 𝑹𝒐𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 18-year-old Ebonie James is ready for college, but is scared at the same time.

"Please," I heard the boy say softly, interrupting my thoughts, but I didn't dare move closer to him. "Just let me explain." He pleaded me to stay with him. "Wh-what, how?" I stared at him in awe. That can't be true. I must be hallucinating because a wolf cannot turn to a human. "Please, just don't freak out or scream. I'll explain everything if you give me a chance. I'm injured, so I can't run after you," He said then stared at my bleeding shoulder and gave me an apologetic, hurt-filled look, "You're injured as well, just let us both have a talk. Please." I had the urge to listen to him. The way his eyes looked at me was enough, but I was actually excited to know what just happened as well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "M-me?" I asked pointing my finger to my chest. "Do you see anyone else around as beautiful and breathtaking as you are?" He asked me not failing to make me blush.

"Don't go inside! Stay!" She said, holding her hand up to show me her palm and then I leaned over the balcony, resting my forearms on the railing to hold me up. I rolled my eyes as I exhaled deeply. Apparently I was a dog now. But fuck, It's her! What are the fucking chances. It feels like I'm in one of those Wattpad novels that Beth always reads. She quickly rushed inside and opened her blinds so that I could see right into her apartment. I watched her rush over to her stereo to lower the volume and then she came rushing back out, out of breath. "Did you get my note?" She asked and then I nodded, trying to force back a smile remembering her cute handwriting, in fact her little note was in the pocket of my sweatpants at this very moment, And so was her 100 dollar bill that she had given me, "I did!" I said as I watched her try to brush her hair out of her face "look, the money that you gave me. I don't want it. I appreciate it but it's too much! I need to give it back!" I said and then she shook her head trying to reject what I was saying. "No, it's yours I gave it to you!" She seemed upset and a little sad that I wanted to give her money back. "Hey, come on. This is a sign from whatever forces are at work here, what are the chances that you would be living right across from me!? This is fucking crazy, I can't accept the money and the universe is giving me a chance to return it." I said shrugging as she waved me off and then smiled sweetly as she breathed in for a moment just looking at me with softness. THIS BOOK IS A BLEND OF TEENAGE DRAMA REALISM AND FANTASY - ROMANCE.
