When Nathaniel gets cut off and interrupted, his thoughts will be interrupted as well. • I'll put seven periods to indicate a change in the scene; to show that time has passed since the last scene. • Bolded names are important characters to Nathaniel and the story • This book contains vulgar and sometimes erotic descriptive language. • This book is targeted toward a young adult audience.

Irresistible Deception by Moonlighton245

Deception is an irresistible thing. It shows you how far you're willing to go to get what you want. It shows you what you want to see, but in the end; it leaves you with nothing to hold. An illusion to take pleasure in but make you question reality itself. BLAIR ANDERSON is quite a...strange girl. Despite the mistreatment and emotional neglect from her parents, she believes that deep inside everyone, there's always good. Because of her too trusting nature and her desire for love and affection she never received, it may lead to her ruination when she meets AMEO ADLER, who can be too...calm in frightening situations, for a lack of a better word. He's someone with an insatiable, dangerous appetite that he tries to hide from her. He would go lengths to prove to her how much she means to him, but to what extreme will he do that? Should there be a limit until it's becomes destructive? She will quickly realise that Ameo isn't what he deems himself to be; whether it's a good or a bad thing. She will soon learn that there's a frail, delicate line between protective and possessive; attraction and obsession; the admiration for someone and the desire to own one's being. She will later understand that not everyone who saves you is your guardian angel; and that sometimes, the devil does the saving instead. What happens when he enters her heart bit by bit? And after she falls into his love trap, perfectly made for her, will everything change? Just what could ever go wrong when a fiery rendezvous ignites between a gullible woman and an artful man? Nothing. Right? *Disclaimer! MATURE Content* Read this with caution, as it might be too much for some readers. If you can't handle it, it's best to stop for your sake because a lot of...things are going to happen in this story. <In Wattpad> Published: 12.02.2022 Finished: 12.05.2023 Ranks: #1 gaslighting #1 twisted #2 dark love #2 suspicion #3 deception #3 imprisonment #4 gamble #4 illusion #4 mania [Original Story]

Barry's life by irisekkeri

Two people fall in love in unlikely circumstances. They have a lot of psychological issues and mistrusts in the order of things to prevent them from finding themselves and each other. I am a reader of crime novels and hard science fiction almost exclusively, and yet this story, which I have been writing for a long time, is a love story, I can't explain it even to myself. The characters will have to work through hardship and evolve to be able to surrender to the magical things around them and the flow of the universe and the love of other people. This story still is a work in progress, it has holes and it is to be continued

Every Hero Deserves a Blowjob [A Paranormal Romance] by aaronfhuston

What happens when gods and goddesses fall in love? What happens when the hero isn't you? Everything seemed to have hit rock-bottom for Karma. A college educated former Marine and now a convicted felon, it would be easy to say divorce was hard. With a daughter on the way from a spur of the moment relationship, he was ready to accept whatever dead-end path life was heading. Lucky-or unlucky-for him, the gods found a suitable purpose for someone of his...caliber. Seduced by a succubus and dragged through the thin veil that separates dimensions, he found himself face-to-face with a woman chasing an invisible butterfly. Unaware of his circumstances and on the verge of being granted magic, he decided to help Ehma. There's no way he could know of the spell affecting the hotel's resident ghost or the plot that brought them stumbling into each other in another world. Ehma wasn't looking to be saved. In life, and in death, she took matters into her own hands. With a lifetime of manipulation and betrayal behind her, she just wanted to move on. This is no harem and definitely not a place for heroics. The women are powerful, the magic deadly, and the relationships...complicated. Jaded and disillusioned, Karma begins a journey to prove whether he's the man he thinks he is and whether he deserves the chance at redemption only true love can bring.
