My reflection in the mirror is ten times worse than when I saw it a few seconds ago. The tears never stopped streaming down my face; my eyeshadow has smudged terribly from rubbing the back of my hand against my eyes, my lips are chapped, the red in my hair has spread to the front of my head and bruises have formed on my arms and the side of my face.
"Love, I'm disappointed to tell you but I can't actually let you go. In fact the situation is so severe, I've concluded that I cannot let you live", Mr. Moon announces from behind me, his expression in the mirror neutral and seems to hold ,sadness?
I'm dying and he's upset? Horror shakes my entire body as one of the newcomers places his hands on my shoulders firmly while the other stalks over to me with a clear plastic bag. No. Terror tingles in my veins and I try to stand from the chair."No!", I scream as the bag is pulled over my head. I take a breathe and the plastic bag plasters over my face.
"Make this quick. Put her in the tub, clean this shit up and take care of the stench. Smells like something died in here", I hear Mr. Moon says and I see him push his hair back in the mirror and wink at me.

The Commission {Book 2}
Trust is a weapon, betrayal the price. Pearl and Travis, locked in a battle of wills, once more. In a world where loyalty is currency and treachery the cost, who will truly wield the power? A broken bond, tested by deception-who will stand, and who will fall?" β― "I was running from danger. Kidnapping me, Travis? Very classic," I spat, rage curling hot in my chest. My fingers found the vase beside me - smooth, cold, heavy - and I didn't hesitate. I swung hard. He ducked just in time, but not fast enough. The glass sliced across his cheek, a ribbon of red blooming below his eye. He didn't even flinch. "You were covered in blood," he growled, voice cracking at the edge. "You died." "And you expect me to believe you saved me?!" I screamed, grabbing the nearest box and hurling it at him. It crashed into his shoulder with a dull thud, and this time - he stopped. His eyes locked on mine, dark and unreadable, a storm swelling beneath silver. Blood welled slowly beneath the cut, trailing down his face like a single crimson tear. I stood there panting, chest heaving, the next object clenched in my fist like it was the only thing tethering me to control. If he took one more step, I'd throw it. I swore I would. Then - his voice came, low, almost a whisper. Not to me. Not really. "How do you... always seem to unravel everything?" "Get lost, Travis!" "You're in danger" he said breathlessly, raking his hand through his hair. "And when was your help ever needed?!" "You do not know what you're doing!" He yelled. "I guess things never change. We will always be screaming at each other's face but you wanna know the difference... I do not give a fuck about you, Travis!" He let out a breath, raking his hair. "Is your empire slipping? It's all crumbling, right? But guess what...this is just the fucking beginning!" He turned away, his hands still in his hair. "Your little charade, doesn't change shit! You should have let me die!" "I should have"Complete

Did that make you nervous, sweetheart?" His smirk grew as he leaned in, his voice dropping to a husky whisper. "You like older men, don't you?" Eva swallowed hard, her heart pounding in her chest. "T-That's not- I mean, I never-" He traced a slow circle on her wrist with his thumb, watching her squirm. "You can deny it all you want, but your face tells me everything," he murmured.

Fake Tales
"I don't know what kind of girl you think I am Greg" I mumbled. I was not the kind of girl who slept with guys on a whim. I wanted him, but not enough to abandon all reason. He took a step toward me, ignored my narrowed eyes and wrapped his arms around me. I wriggled and tried to pull away, but he only held me tighter. His face was impossibly close to me, expression serene to my fury. I could feel him already, pressing into my stomach. Fear shot through me, but the anticipation was equal. "I know exactly what kind of girl you are Maddy... that's the problem" He said simply. His lips crashed into mine, tasting every inch of me. I wanted more than anything to pull away, leave and never mention this again.... but I couldn't do it. The feel of him naked, warm and muscular against me rendered me speechless. I couldn't explain it, but our bodies seemed to fit together somehow and the anger I'd felt just a minute ago. That firey anger at him invading my privacy was gradually merging with the previous lust from last night. Now all I felt was an all consuming need for him to touch me. ....................................................................... Maddy Reynolds' life is a mess. Her best friend's brother Greg has just died and her two best friends Mel and Dom aren't speaking to each other.

Then at the funeral, she becomes friends with Tom Winter by pure chance and he seems to be the only one who understands her. And yet.... even he is keeping secrets from her. The sort of secrets that have the power to change everything. Maddy now has to decide to trust him or find out the truth on her own. Things would have been a whole lot simpler if she'd chosen the latter.Complete
