collegestories lovestory romance wattys2019

I never imagined I'd ever fall for the leather loving bad boy. It was always so cliche.
I meant don't get me wrong every girl has that fantasy that a bad boy will be good just for her but I never imagined it was real.

Let alone that I would fall for the "brooding bastard that is cassian james".

However lies are what break us and trust is what relationships are built on so if there isn't honesty? If there isn't trust? Is it worth it?
Was it worth it?

Knowing him made me question everything loving him made the uncertainty feel like home. Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes along with darkness.
And though he was darkness he was beautiful.All Rights Reserved

Blind Lycan by hells_princess999

I was just a normal girl, despite not being human. Growing up my life was shitty, but still I was glad to be alive despite how dead I felt inside. There wasn't a single person in the world that I could trust. Not a single person that I cared for. Until HE came. My boring life soon vanished, werewolves hunt me from all corners of the earth. Rogues, Alphas, and kings Alike. I was kidnapped, despite him telling people different. Everyone told me he was a monster, the beast that never loved, he didn't feel pain, or remorse. For a while I believed the stories and rumours, until I came to realise that the beast simply acted on the assumptions of others. They called him a beast. They treated him like an animal. So the animal he became. But I could see the pain, the agony that he feels every day of his life. Unable to see the world in colour ever again, completely blind in human form. Slowly I was falling for the Lycan, not realising that he was waiting to catch me. With enemies surrounding me, and old unfamiliar friends appearing out of thin air to reveal secrets that I had long forgotten, things get complicated. Lies are told, secrets are kept, and slowly but surely myself and the beast and ripping each other apart. Will we survive the wars? Or will it destroy us both? The truth is always revealed at one point, no matter how much it rips apart your happy little bubble. With an enemy stronger than us all, and older than time itself, how do we defend ourselves? He is coming for me, and he will kill everyone I've come to love if they step in his way. Little did any of us know that the key to the kings demise, was me. I have power beyond anything anyone has ever seen, I am the daughter of the mother moon, and he wants it. He wants it all. And he plans on burning those who even consider stopping him.

Bloodbound Rivals {BL} by mufuiq

Bound by duty, divided by class, and tangled in a fate neither of them chose. In a kingdom where power is veiled in blood and shadows, Cassian has spent his entire life clawing his way through poverty, doing whatever it takes to keep his family fed in a city that couldn't care less if he lived or died. So when he's offered an unusually well-paid position as the personal servant to the spoiled crown prince, he doesn't hesitate, no matter how dangerous the job sounds. Prince Thalric is everything Cassian despises: cold, entitled, and unbearably arrogant. A creature born into power and immortality, treats everyone with disdain. Especially his new servant who is not afraid to give the prince a sharp tongue. They hate each other from the start. But hatred has a way of turning into obsession.. And obsession into something far more treacherous. As Cassian is pulled deeper into the royal court's web of secrets, ancient bloodline, and buried traumas, he realizes there's more to the prince than blood and cruelty. But in a kingdom built on centuries of lies and violence, getting close to the crown is a dangerous game. And falling for the crown prince might be the most dangerous move of all.

How To Hate A Heartthrob by fresita_chiki

For most of my life, I was basically invisible. I could've jumped off a building yelling, "Hey guys, I'm going to jump!" and the world would've just... kept scrolling. I wasn't depressed or anything - just tired of being unnoticed. It would've been nice if someone, anyone, looked my way. But after a while, I got used to it. No attention meant no distractions. No judgment. Just me, my cat, cookies, and my best friend Naomi against the world. My plan was simple: survive high school, glow up in college, find my Prince Charming, and drive off into the sunset in a pink Volkswagen Beetle. (Don't judge me. That's my dream car.) But then he showed up. Alexander Collins - the new kid. Arrogant, annoying, frustratingly good-looking. The kind of boy who ruins your peace just by existing. Somehow, he's made it his life mission to get under my skin. And even though I swear I hate him... part of me can't help but wonder if maybe being noticed by him isn't so bad. --------- This is my first story, I hope you enjoy it. I'll be honestly I'm not good at writing at ALL, but I've been wanting to pick up a hobby So I apologize in advance for my terrible grammar, and for most likely a cringy book. But I hope you enjoy:) #romcom #romance #comedy #YAlove #adultromance

CRIMINAL by AelinIvy

COMPLETE "I don't love you anymore, Kane." I lie as I try to look him in the eyes. This however makes Nekane grin as he looks at me with amusement. "If you didn't love me anymore, you would've fucked different men in the past year," He says, taking a few steps closer. "If you didn't love me," He's now standing in front of me, his face close to mine. "You wouldn't have let me fuck you raw last night and you certainly wouldn't have let me cum inside of you," He says, his gaze falling to my lips. My breath hitches and I can feel my heartbeat speed up. "if you didn't still love me, you would've never let me get this close," He smirks as he blows a little air in my face. Juliane Davis-Harris met the love of her life at a young age during college. Nekane Harris. She loved him more than life itself and when he proposed to her on their graduation she couldn't answer any different than yes. Life with him was perfect and successful. Something that she didn't see coming, however, was the secret life her husband was living behind her back. And when she figured out what he was really doing, her entire world flipped upside down. A year after the discovery, Juliane has now started an entirely new life, far away from her husband. But no matter how hard she tries, she can never forget him. ______________________________ Warning ⚠︎︎ This story contains mature content and language.

Nine Years by Taaybeereads

Vera: When I was little, I never would have imagined myself at 26 years old, waitressing at a shitty Tavern, in the West Side. I also couldn't have predicted I would meet the most perfect man to sweep me off my feet at said Tavern. Life is seeming too good to be true, until this perfect man reveals his dirty secret that lands me in the middle of a war thats been brewing for almost a decade. But, how can I stay away from the man who makes me feel more alive than i've felt in years? Do I even want to stay away? My head is telling me to run, but my heart wont let me go. Tyler: When my classmates and I got assigned a project to build a business model during sophomore year at Yale, I never would've guessed it would change my entire life. That year I met my best friends and we've built a billion dollar company that's become the most successful medical equipment supply company in the country. From the outside, I'm living the dream, in luxury. Expensive cars, penthouse apartments and anything I want at the snap of my fingers. But someone like me doesn't get to where I am without lies, betrayal and enemies. I just never thought my worst enemy would be my best friend.

DECEPTION by ewatomiabiodun

PROLOGUE You always believe that doing it right guarantees a great outcome, but what if it doesn't? What if doing everything the way you were taught to ends with you questioning the very meaning of right and wrong? They said good girls always win, that patience pays off, that saving the best for the one who deserves it is the most honorable thing a woman can do. I believed them, I clung to those words as if they were sacred, because society made it sound like the crown jewel of a woman's worth. But what happens when you realize that the ones who broke the rules seem to have better outcomes? When you watch them live freely, laugh loudly, and still be chosen, while you, the one who chose to be good and follow the rules, are left to face the opposite? Does that mean life is unfair, or does it mean the rules were never written for you in the first place? I waited. I followed every rule. I held on when others let go. And when the night finally came, my night, I gave it all, expecting the forever I was promised, only to be met with the greatest deception of my life. The kind of heartbreak that does not just wound the heart, but questions your identity, your choices, and even your faith in love. How would you feel if the man you loved and believed in turned out to be someone entirely different? When the one you trusted the most isn't who you thought he was? When the one who clapped for your values was only clapping for himself, cheering because he had already won the game before you even realized you were playing? Not all stories begin with love, some begin with a lie, some begin with betrayal, and some begin with a silence that grows too loud to ignore. This is not the story you think it is. Follow me, and you will find out the truth about a girl who waited, who gave everything, and who discovered that being a virgin was not the beginning of her story, but only the secret she never thought she would have to defend.

These Are My Confessions by Pharaohs_Love

These are my confessions to everything that I've done. When you read this I don't want you to look at me differently. I don't want your pity or any type of sympathy. See I knew what I signed up for when I entered the game. I choose this lifestyle and at one time I thought it was the best choice for me. I had access to any and everything. Don't be fooled though there is always a dark side. Nobody ever tells you about the price you have to pay when you are in my position. Everybody sees the good but, not the bad. The days you have to spend trying to cover your face with makeup. The different people you meet every night just to survive. The things you would go through just to get someone's attention. I guess you could say I did it for love. Only if you believe in that type of stuff. I would like to call my experience a high. It was pure ecstasy at first. The charming smile, expensive clothes, fancy dinners, nice vacations. Then it turns into a living hell you can't escape from. That's when people start showing their true colors. When lights go off there is a whole different side to a person. You could literally be sleeping next to the devil himself. 'Let's do this dirty laundry'

Arranged Marriage to my Mate [Completed but Editing] by soccerluv4

[Completed] Taylor Daniels. Average name, average face, average girl. What about her life? Well, that's a bit complicated. Finding out her werewolf heritage was not part of the seemingly normal life Taylor lived. She'd always been the strong but silent type, concentrating on getting good grades and pleasing her mother. But all that changes when she's merely picked up and dropped into the world of werewolves. She'll have to dust herself off and learn to live with the fact that her life was a lie. What's even more deranged is that her life is at risk. And who can possibly help her? Her so called "mate" Leo Knight. A forced marriage between the two is the only thing keeping her safe, but what happens when this little compromise turns into a whirlwind of attraction, hate, jealousy, and possible love? Can Taylor hold on to her only hope of sanity, or be whisked away in the world of werewolves, where her family, herself included, are a bunch of overgrown dogs? Taylor may seem shy on the outside, but dealing with a sarcastic, rude, arrogant mate has her standing up for herself and ultimately, facing her crazy consequences. Despite her situation, the confusing part is the possible attraction she has to Leo. And to think, it all started with two simple words..."I Do." THIS BOOK IS CURRENTLY BEING EDITED! If you are fine with reading it as is, go ahead! But I am currently editing it to remove multiple grammatical errors, as well as improving the story line and filling in some missing gaps that I failed to address the first time writing this. The finished product will be up soon! If you still would like to read this book, go ahead but you have been warned!
