"Please don't leave me," I croaked, voice fractured and small. "I-I-I'm scared. Don't leave me, please."

Lucien's sneakers hit the floor before I finished my sentence. He climbed onto the bed and pulled me gently into his arms, his chest behind mine, strong and anchored.

"I wouldn't," he murmured against the side of my face. "I'm here, I won't."

His hands moved with an uncharacteristic softness, not filled with arrogance, no sharp edges. Just warmth.

What was he doing? I felt him hesitate, then bring a thumb to my cheek. He wiped away the tear I hadn't noticed falling. The moment his skin brushed mine, something inside me steadied.

The Lucien I knew-quick-tongued and distant-was gone.

My breaths slowed. The tightness inside my chest softened. And still, his hands remained gentle, mapping out the curve of my cheek like he was trying to memorise it.

"You're no good for me," I whispered hoarsely, leaning my head against his shoulder, eyes wet.

"I can't deny my feelings, Amara," he said, his voice more like a confession than an excuse. "I try, every time, I do. But your innocence haunts me and I'm left coming back to you."

He brushed a strand of hair out of my eyes. That simple act shattered every version of him I had thought I understood.

"You're going to hurt me," I warned, my voice brittle.

His gaze stayed locked on mine. "I can't promise I won't, Amara. I wish I could. I'm flawed. I'm angry. I'm still learning how not to run. But I want you. I want every version of you, even the parts I don't deserve."

One day you're happy, and the next, a freak accident exposes your boyfriend's dirty little secrets in the worst possible way. I lost the man I loved, my trust in people, and my home in less than one afternoon. At least I know that I've pushed past unimaginable pain before, and I can do it again. Elijah didn't break me, just my heart. 💔🔨 So, the LAST thing I needed was to run into my ex's best friend, Gray on the street. Who cares if he's hotter than lava? Gray's a cocky jerk who seems to get a misguided kick out of making my blood boil. And did I mention the guy's got a chip on his tattooed shoulder even bigger than his inflated ego? Unfortunately, I just found out that I accidentally hired him to work on the BIGGEST campaign of my career!💀 But when Gray's prismatic eyes fill with heartfelt apologies, I don't know how to feel. It's messing with my mind, my career, my new friendships, and worst of all, it's hurting what's left of my ruined heart. I thought Gray hated me, but I was wrong...There is something much, much stronger that binds our fate. 🥊💕 This book contains adult themes (aka sexy stuff and trigger content) as well as Oxford commas and the occasional grammatical error. 🥊💕 **This is a complete story that I am currently in the process of editing, so feedback, notes, and helpful comments are always welcome.

She's DARK He's COLD by raniya_shah
43 parts Complete Mature
Falling in love with an enemy knowingly is wrong. What if, it happens unknowingly? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ " W-what this? " I lost the ability to speak English properly. I understood what was that but I couldn't function. My heart didn't believe this. The marriage we had cannot be fake. It didn't feel fake. " Why? Can't you understand the clearly written words? " He said. Yes, he answered me. But why was he behaving this way? I moved towards him and stood in front of him. I just can't get what this means? Was this fake? Why? What did I do to deserve this? " I c-can't understand anything," I said slowly. I just wish this comes out to be a fake thing. All of this a joke. I helplessly looked towards him. He was quiet and looked emotionless. I felt scared of his behavior for the first time. This is not true. It can't be. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Briar Eliza Shah or Eliza Joseph is a 19 years old girl - she does have a lot of DARK secrets from the horrible past.

Something There

74 parts Complete Mature

'"Can you spread your legs a little farther for me, baby?" he asks me, his voice a low whisper. I nod, doing exactly as I'm told, and he bites down on his lower lip. "Good girl," he breathes, and those two words alone do the most wicked things to me. His fingers trail even farther north until he reaches the hem of my underwear. His eyes meet mine and I have to let out a shaky breath, holding on tight to him to keep myself stable. "Yes or no?" he asks me quietly, and I nod frantically.' 🌸🌸🌸 Lexi Brooks' love life was suddenly flipped upside down when she was kissed by Bryce Bradshaw the day before he mysteriously moved away. It left her heart in a twist, until her mind was trapped elsewhere when 'The Incident' occurred; quite possibly the hardest thing she'd ever go through. But Bryce always had it easy. He was the heartthrob, the bad boy, the perfect guy. He had the looks, the talent, and the charisma. Though to Lexi's surprise, on the rare occasion she could catch him out of the spotlight, she saw something else there. She could tell that he was a little distant. He could tell that she was a little different. The only crucial detail: He simply left without a word. 🌸🌸🌸 Highest Rankings: #1 in Drama #1 in Heartbreak #1 in YA 🌸🌸🌸 'Something There' Book #1
