Mafia's curvaceous love.
Kaya Emerson has spent her entire life being made to feel like she's too much, too big, too emotional, too unlovable. Raised in a house of cruelty where her stepmother's venom runs deeper than blood, Kaya's only goal is to survive the day, shrink herself, and never be seen. Until she witnesses a man being murdered. And the killer turns to look at her. Cold. Dangerous. Beautiful in a way the devil himself would envy. ππππ€π‘ππ¨ ππ€π’ππ£π€ - mafia king, calculated killer, a man who turns bloodshed into an art. She runs. But he hunts. And when he finds her... he doesn't kill her. He keeps her. "You think I'll let you walk away, tesero? After you saw me at my worst? No. Now I need you to see me at my darkest... and still beg for more." Locked in his penthouse with secrets, diamonds, and demons, Kaya finds herself fighting not just for her freedom, but for her sanity. Because the man who should terrify her makes her feel seen. Wanted. Desired. Protected. Worshipped. Even as he drags her deeper into a world of violence and obsession. "I'll ruin you for anyone else, Kaya. They'll look at you, and you'll still be dripping with my name." He's possessive. Ruthless. Addicted to her curves. She's broken, insecure, and dangerously close to falling for her captor. And the scariest part? She's starting to like the way it feels to be his. ππΌπππΌ'π πΎππππΌπΎππππ ππππ [18+] πππππππ πππππππ : this book contain body shaming, verbal abuse, mention of suicidal thoughts, graphic violence and murder, NSFW/smut/explicit scenes etc. So read on your own risk.

Completed, and please forgive the minor spelling mistakes. ------------------------- β’READ THIS BEFORE READINGβ’ Please be aware that this story contains references to sexual assault, suicide, abuse, and self harm. I deeply regret incorporating some of those topics into my story. Please understand that I was 13 when I wrote this, I was naive, and I never expected it to reach the height that it has. However, even though I understand the impact these things carry now, I believe changing/deleting things would harm the story and make it feel murky and unclear. Please try and take it all with a grain of salt. --- This was meant to be a trilogy, but where's the fun in that? I anticipate ~150 chapters. "Yes. Of course!! I love your writing! It's so deep, like the reader is a part of your story without it needing to be in 2nd person. You are by far my favorite author on Wattpad! <3. I'd be willing to read anything you give us! Xoxoxoxoxoxxoxoxoxox." -@xx_Kyrie_xx "My heart just died, this chapter is so emotional. I love it." -@FandomSweetheart "This story is an entire emotional rollercoaster that I didn't expect to fall in love with." -@LameZero -----Complete
We Dream at Midnight (Ember 2)
Here she is. I can see the slope of her spine through that thin shirt. She's made of angles I ache to smooth with a hand, but I'd use my lips if she asked. I brush her knuckles with mine. Her skin is cold, but she flips her palm for more contact. I lace our fingers. It's enough to make her look at me. As those kaleidoscopic eyes meet mine, I hold my breath. Then she sets her lips just under my jaw. It rips the air from my lungs. It's the softest thing I've ever felt. "What was that for," I breathe. She pulls back, lashes damp, and whispers, "You're the kind of person that should be kissed." ππͺπ§π© π₯ππ€π₯π‘π ππͺπ§π© π₯ππ€π₯π‘π BOOK TWO C O N T A I N S : β€οΈ mature content β€οΈ romance & friendship β€οΈ yearning Copyright Β© 2021-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).

How To Fall In Love, Ruin Everything and Still End Up With Potatoes
How To Fall In Love, Ruin Everything and Still End Up With Potatoes: Three hearts. One sarcastic Girl. Zero chill. Love was never supposed to be this complicated -or this hilarious. __________ Riana didn't ask to be the star of a love triangle. She just wanted to survive high school with decent grades, her hoodie collection intact, and maybe only mild emotional damage. But fate (and her absurdly sarcastic personality) had other plans. Enter Skylar: hoodie-wearing, hair-flipping, secret-softie with a jealousy problem and a tragic habit of confessing his feelings on an impulse. And then there's Kaizen: her charming, childhood best friend with a smirk that could start a fire (literally-he once brought a flaming rose), who shows up out of nowhere and remembers everything she's forgotten. What follows is a whirlwind of accidental almost-kisses, sabotage-by-potato, dramatic slow-mo hallway showdowns, emotional mangoes, and a squirrel who might be more emotionally stable than everyone involved. Riana? She's just trying to survive Spirit Week, avoid being the human center of gravity in a rom-com plot, and maybe figure out which boy she's actually in love with before someone skydives off the gym roof with a banner. It's hilarious. It's chaotic. It's very low in chill. Because love? Yeah. Love is war. With snacks. ____________Complete![Broken(Teen Fiction)[Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/23996244-256-k174376.jpg)

Colton's Miracle βοΈ (Moved To Inkitt)
Officially a Wattpad Creator! This book is my lucky charm. Colton has grown up knowing nothing but anger, hatred, and pain. His past doesn't allow him to enjoy life like others do. Instead, he paints a glare on his face that scares most people away. And then suddenly, a petite little red head with freckles and a radiant smile shoves her way into his life, changing every concept he thought he knew and breaks every rule he thought he needed. With every encounter, the ice around Colton's heart melts until his heart is free to beat as loudly as it can, just for Lily. With a past even darker than Colton's, Lillian chooses her armor to be a smile. She has so many reasons to succumb to the darkness that fills her once innocent heart, but she focuses on enjoying the new life she just started. Being the new girl means she's free to pretend that she's just like everyone else, normal. And when she meets the rude and grumpy Colton, she can't help but notice how alike they actually are. Slowly, the two broken souls begin to help each other heal, and together, they start to learn what it's like to be loved, unaware that the ghosts of the past are still hovering in the shadows. **Topics mentioned in this story could be triggering, such as: Physical Abuse, and Sexual Harrassment. **There will be mature content (Explicit Scenes and Swearing). **All photos used are not mine and are found for public use. ** This is a work of fiction.

But her world changes when she meets Ryder Becker. Ryder Becker is one of the most popular boys in all of Willington High. I mean, all the boys want to be him and all the girls worship him.

Not only does Autumn get partnered up with Ryder for the biggest class project of the whole year, she also lives on the same street as him. In the beginning she thinks it's a total curse, but maybe it's a blessing in disguise... They both may pretend on the outside that they are fine, but truth be told, they are both broken.

Well put her broken pieces together with his, and you have cracked the code. Love could put their broken pieces back together. ----------------------------------- A sky full of stars and he was still staring at me. "Why are you staring like that?" I asked him.
