"Fuck you, Finn." Eden spat, ignoring her inflamed cheeks.

He whipped back to face her, scowling. "Shut your mouth." He snapped.

"No! I'm tired of this! Why do you have a problem with me?" Eden begged for an answer, throwing up her arms in frustration.

Finn inhaled deeply and quickly stormed in Eden's direction, fists clenched at his sides.

"Just tell me-" She was cut off quickly by his lips crashing against hers, sending a wave of adrenaline through her whole body.

Brave Enough To Love Again  by CalliopeBlythe

I stood with my back to her, shielding her, and my murderous eyes stared down at the poor excuse of a man, promising unimaginable pain if he dared to move or even flinch. The enormity of control it took me to suppress the impulse to eradicate the piece of scum, who dared to even think about laying a hand on a woman, was inconceivable. My whole body was trembling with rage. The guy was intimidated by the fury in my eyes and stumbled back to his intoxicated friends who were too dazed to understand the situation. I was disappointed and relieved at the same time that the chaos didn't end in a fist fight. When I turned around to console her, she was gone. And as I looked around, I saw her back just leaving the bar through the entrance. I hurried out to follow her. She walked ahead of me aimlessly and disoriented like a wounded animal that had just escaped the claws of death. My heart ached for her. I found a kindred soul in her. She evidently had been wounded in the past. Just like me. But in an even worse way than I had been hurt, and it angered me, that someone had dared to harm her. *** Eden Marie Simmons is still recovering after escaping an abusive relationship when she meets Keane, the broody and enigmatic neighbor who is shrouded in mystery. Both are still being haunted by their past and are not ready for a new commitment, but when fate repeatedly puts them in each other's paths, they can't deny their attraction for each other. Life challenges them both with secrets, lies, and broken trusts, and confronts them with their pasts. They both must learn to be brave enough to love again. *** Story is previously called "Paradise Lies"

WARNING: R-RATED MATURE CONTENT Gabe stalks towards me, and I back away until my back hits his door. He puts both his hands up against the door trapping me. "Admit it Skylar, you feel something between us," he purrs. "N-no I don't," I lie. "Your lying," he calls me out. "And now that I know there's a chance, I'm not letting go of you that easy." "W-what is that supposed to mean?" "It means my baby brother better watch his back, cause he now has competition." "You're crazy," I look at him in disbelief. "Crazy for you," he breaths against my mouth. He catches me off guard by wrapping his hand around the back of my neck and pulls me into him, crashing his lips to mine. He tongue gets access to mine and he presses his body against me, making it harder for me to break free. No way, I'm not giving in this time. I push him off of me and slap him across the face. "Stay away from me!" I shout, and storm out of his bedroom. I run out the house, and thank god he doesn't follow me. Once I feel like I'm far enough I stop and take a breath. What the hell is happening? How could everything go so wrong and so upside down in just a couple of days. I came here for a distraction, to get away from my broken family; not to be stuck in some twisted telenovela. And the worst part . . . I know this is only the beginning. ************** Skylar graduates high school and decides to go to her Aunt Stacey's beach house in laguna beach for the summer with her two best friends Anna and Kelly. She also came to visit her boyfriend Ben who is also her aunts neighbor. Even though coming back won't be the same with her brothers passing, she hopes this vacation will help distract her from the pain. Surprisingly, the only person that has been a good distraction is her boyfriends hot older brother Gabe.
