It wasn't an angel. It had wings like one, but these wings were pitch black. The creatures back was to me, so I could see all the black veins scrawled across his back, leading from his wings. There was this horrifying snarling noise coming from his direction and I couldn't help but hear whimpering and moaning.
A heavy cloak of dread washed over me as I realized that it was eating something. I tried to make any noise as I backed away slowly, but it noticed and turned around to face me. When he turned, I saw that there were tears mixed with blood streaming down his face. His eyes were just as dark as his wings which caused me to jump. He dropped what he was holding and put his hands on his face as if he didn't want me to see it.
There was a small moaning sound coming from whatever it was that he had dropped. It sounded seriously in pain before it just instantly stopped and here we were- staring at each other in deadly silence.
"Melody... No." I could barely hear as the thing whispered my name. I didn't feel scared, I just felt off.
"W-what?"
"Why? Of all the people- why you." It didn't come out as a question, it came out as a statement of anger.
"What do you mean?" He was in front of me now and I could smell the sickly-sweet smell of blood radiating from him.
"Why the fuck are you here, Melody?"
"I-I don't know. I woke up here." I tried to back away a little more and his face softened before he reached his hand out for me. There were black veins spiraling all along his hand, which confused me even more. "Who are you?"
He retracted his hand and put his head down, "You wouldn't believe me if I told you."
"You can't know what I believe unless you give me something to work with." I tilted my head to the side and huffed. He sounded familiar and warm, but he looked terrifying. "Who are you and why am I here? Where is here, by the way?"
He chuckled and smiled, shaking his head. "I cannot tell you who I am, but you are in the forest."

A jealous snarl ripped from Anthony's chest. Did he just growl? What the hell's going on here?! Luca leaned closer to me, ignoring Anthony. "I'm not good with words like these. But you know that, Mavis." He smiled gently while his eyes filled with an emotion - love?- that caused butterflies in my stomach. A warm feeling surrounded my heart. Did it just speed up? "So, this is the only way I can describe it." He suddenly leaned his head down and captured my lips in a long kiss. It was gentle, yet harsh. He claimed my lips as his own, taking complete control.

The Space Between Us
He's bred to be the perfect human. Cunning, alert, strong. She's natural, soft, forgotten along with the rest of humanity. But when these two worlds collide, destroying everything they thought they knew about each others race- there's a shift. His behaviours change, he's intrigued, addicted. She's afraid, but undeniably drawn to him. Can two people so different love each other even when their worlds tell them not to? ________ "My brother knows." I blurted. His usually composed expression broke, showing a slight amount of panic I would've expected to see from one of us ground dwellers. "What?" "He figured out I must've been seeing someone in secret, and I slipped up... he knows you're from the sky, he knows I see you often to talk, he knows I helped you." I admitted, shame flowing through me. He took a deep breath and glanced towards the house behind me. "And what did he say?" I did the same, letting air fill my lungs entirely until I was ready to admit it. "He said that because you saved my life... he wouldn't mention it to anybody else. But that I'm not to see you anymore a-and," He watched me so intensely, like his whole identity revolved around this moment. "...And?" "And that I am to marry William r-right away." I stuttered over the truth knowing it was impossibly hard for both of us to accept. Adrian only stared back, sadness washing over his eyes like a fog, some of the purest emotion I've ever seen from him. "Do you... want to marry him?" This time I paused. I didn't want to, no. But how would telling him that help us in any way? "He- he's strong," I defended William in an effort to stop this conversation from going any further. But Adrian's brow creased. "I'm stronger." I was taken aback at how quickly he defended himself, but the thing is he isn't wrong. He is stronger.Complete
Before It Struck Midnight. *COMPLETE*
Before I begin, I just want to say that this story does include some mature themes. I will also give out a warning a chapter prior to these scenes. Getting that out of the way, let's go onto the story description... *This book contains explicit content* *EXTRACT FROM THE BOOK* I stared at him, cooking and whistling, something that I could not do, or should I say, wasn't bothered to do. I decided to move away and to try and find an exit but I didn't even take one step back when I heard his voice. "Princess? Is that you?" I saw him raise his head before shooting his eyes onto me. The sudden gaze caused to heart to race while it froze my body as if I have turned into ice. I felt the fear engulf my body, eating me inside out. "You aren't scared of me... Are you?" he asked me, I sensed the envy in his voice. That mixed with his harsh tone caused a wave of goosebumps to course through my body. I wanted to begin by asking him where was I? Why was I here? Why was he here... I wanted to ask him, but I couldn't, the fear was just all too much for me. "Come on... Speak to me... Ask me..." he began. "Ask me 'why am I here' and all of that crap... Entertain me with your fear." I saw him slowly gripping a knife that was on the countertop, with his eyes still on mine. The sides of his mouth slowly began tilting upwards. All the bitterness and the cold, it was all so visible in his eyes. I looked at him in horror, noticing him as he took his first steps towards me. "Talk to me... Because this might be the only time you will ever be able to talk, " he said this sentence in such a calm tone, it caused me once again to shiver with goosebumps. "W-what do you mean...". Never in my life have I stuttered, until then.Complete

A living THING
"B... Bryce?" I said quietly between my light sobs. He didn't answer me. He looked dangerous. His hands covered in blood, his jaw damaged, his eyes... I didn't know, what exactly I saw in them, but I knew, there was nothing good. I realized, I might be in danger myself. I had no idea of what is going on in his mind. I started walking away, keeping my body close to the wall behind me. I stumbled on some trash, but gained my balance back, never leaving the sight of him - now, a total stranger, in front of me. He slowly followed me, his eyes registering every movement I made. They looked predatory, all his appearance looked like it. Following every movement of his pray. And I knew that pray was me. Some cries left my dry lips. I couldn't hold in anymore of this tension. I turned around and started to run, run away from this place, away from him. Before I could make some steps, I felt my upper arm grabbed strongly. I let out a scream and desperately tried to free myself from his strong grip. Bryce took my other arm and made me face him. My heart dropped in my stomach, as I saw his hard stare. I stopped for a second, but then tried to get myself away from him again. "Stop trying! You are not going anywhere!" I heard his voice, which was said through his clenched teeth. He momentarily turned me around and grabbed my hole upper body and wrapped his strong arms around me, making it impossible to move my hands and myself. I started to scream again, but again, his fast movements stopped me. I felt him squeeze me tighter. He lifted me up from the ground a bit and put his large hand on my mouth. That made my panic rise even more. I was so afraid. I had no idea of what he is going to do with me. Is he going to kill me? I felt his head resting against my head, his breath touching the top of my ear, sending a strong shiver of fear through my body. I couldn't see anything, as my eyes were filled with endless streams of tears.Complete

"Please, I need some explanation." I beg. I stay still as he stops dead in his tracks. His body is tense and it's scarring me. He turns around slowly to face me with his hands at his sides. His eyes meet mine, but there is no spark of any emotion in them. They are cold and dark making me look away not being able to hold his deadly stare. I feel uneasy under his gaze, and i feel his eyes burning a hole in the side of my face. "No, I won't explain because it's not important." He says in a low, almost, growl. I flinch and look back into his eyes. I feel hurt by his words and I don't know why, but I know he sees it in my eyes. His faces flashes with regret but it's quickly covered up with his faces going back to it's hard cold look. I feel my heart stop and my face go pale. His look terrified me making me hold my breath. "Breath." He orders. I start to breathe again and just blink at him. "Now go." He orders me again. I flinch involuntarily at his tone and jump back slightly. "Please don't let me walk home alone." I beg in a quiet voice, looking down at my feet. The next thing I see are his black combat boots right in front of my shoes. I look up into his eyes and he looks down into mine confusion written all over his face. "How come you aren't running yet?" He questions searching my eyes. "I just can't walk home alone, please I'm scared." I hear him chuckle. "You aren't afraid of me? What can possibly be scarier than me?" He asks. "Well, I know you will keep me safe." "Why is that?"

In The Eyes Of The Alpha
In The Eyes Of Fate Series (Book One) "Don't even think about it." I stood frozen in place as he said those words from behind me, which sent shivers down my spine.

I'm not strong against someone like him Thoughts raced through my mind as I tried to think of a way to get away from him. But there was nothing but endless trees around me.

I stuttered out. I tried to sound brave and not let my fear show, but my mouth betrayed me. His golden red eyes flickered with a hint of pain for a moment then back to a cold stare, "I'd never hurt you, never put you in harm's way and I'm never letting him take you from me, you're mine." He said in a deep low voice, almost a growl, and his eyes seemed to have gotten darker. 'What the hell is that supposed to mean?!' I tried taking a step back but his grip on my arm tightened. It hurt. "L-let me go, you, you're hurting me!" I looked up at him scared, his eyes were now completely dark, and the next thing I noticed were pointed teeth poking out from his lips.
