Mariana known as Mari (pronounced as Maw-Ree) is your typical teenage girl. She goes to a school, she's well known for: her sarcasm, stubbornness, down-to-earth personality, gullibleness, her hatred towards anybody-who-gets-on-her-nerves, her kindness, her green glass-like eyes and beauty. She has friends and enemies. She lives for memories and tries her best not to live for dramas. So what? She's a normal seventeen year old girl. -That's what she thinks.
Raised and trained to be the best she can be, she soon becomes a target. But for who?
Attempted poison. Attempted kidnapping. Attempted murder. She's lived through all of that. But why?
Fighting over two boys, fighting against her assassin, fighting for survival, she stumbles -more like successful kidnapping- upon the truth. Will she accept or decline? Will she live or will she die?
Betrayal, secrets and lies replaces luxuries, attention and having a normal life.
What will she do when she finally learns the truth?
Because it's complicated.

It Wasn't Love ✔️
"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck.
