"I know," a hand gently caressed her cheek." However you must, and if you are not chosen you will return home. Although, if you are, Dakota, do not forget who you are or where you came from. Those girls will do anything to change themselves in order to win favour over the prince. Do not lie, do not cheat, stay true to yourself and show integrity. You will be going to the capital and the capital is not the west. Their ways are not our ways and there will be to you many strange things. Remember your culture, remember your identity, remember who you are."

"I promise I will." She swore and took her wisdom to heart.

Looking at the fears by _ab1699_

Higest rank #114 "What? Are you out of your mind? Why? Why so suddenly? Everything was going so well. What happened so suddenly?" As if her tears couldn't be held anymore, they started flowing. "Jacob it's hard enough for me as it is. Please don't make it harder for me. Please." Dakota said in an almost whisper. "Why are you doing this to me? Why? Please don't go. Please. I need you. I want you." "I think it's for the best Jacob. Let's just break up and move on with our lives." Jacob just came closer and brought his forehead to hers and kissed her nose. His hands placed on her jaws. "Please don't do this. I love you baby." 🔯🔯🔯🔯🔯🔯🔯🔯 Dakota's life wasn't easy. To say that, it was an understatement. Ever since childhood she had loneliness. Jacob's life was the simple one. He never wanted anything but to keep her grandma alive and happy. But another wish he had was having Dakota. Making her his love. Now what happens when dakota meets her secret admirer who had been stalking her almost all of their school years? What happens when it turns out that the stalker boy and Dakota end up in a relationship? Tune in to know about Dakota's story. ✳✳✳✳✳✳✳✳✳✳✳✳ Now that the story is complete, it is under major editing. Have fun reading it. This was my first book so don't judge me by it. I promise, the next one is more better.

Toy Soldier {ManxManxMan} by theprodigypenguin

**TOY MASTER SERIES: BOOK TWO**SEQUEL TO PUPPET//READ PUPPET FIRST PLEASE** Dakota Bailey has been forced to conform to the belief of other's since he was young; remaining in the closet because of fear, forced to praise a God he hated because his mother's extreme views ruled his life. When his family died in the bombs, he was freed from their beliefs, but at the same time watched the love of his life die, and for years he let the pain of his loss overwhelm him and govern his life. He believed himself to be nothing but a toy soldier, broken and gathering dust, waiting to be melted down for someone else's purposes, paint chipping away and pieces missing. The one constant in his life had always been the stars above, he cared about nothing else, but when those stars collide in front of his very eyes, he's reminded that loving is not a crime, and that he deserves to live as much as those around him, because broken soldier or not, he still had a right to fight. "Either way I'm still broken, my paint chipping, pieces missing, still pushing forward, still struggling, still just a toy fighting for my right to survive. What a cruel world we live in..." ((rated M, will contain explicit content, sexual themes, rape, blood, violence, polygamous relationship, & mature language)) **cover art by Ramzy Kamen on DA: https://ramzykamen.deviantart.com/**

The Thing Called Love by QueenSelena101

"Don't look at me like that. I promise I will make you feel like a queen, when living here." He said looking straight through me. He came closer and tried to kiss me. I turned my head making him to kiss my cheek instead. "One day you will kiss me. You will learn to love me too and learn to forget about Dakota Grey." He whispered taking a piece of my hair and tucking it behind my ear. "I will never love a monster like you." I said. "I have a feeling you will." He said, giving me a one sided smirk. "You don't know me." I said. He chuckled. "My love, of course I do." He said. "No you don't, we just met." I replied. "So many things you need to learn." He said playing with my hair. "Get your hands off me!" I said pushing them back. He gave me a devilish smile and got on top of me. "You don't disrespect your future husband! You will be a good girl and listen to everything I say! Is that clear?!" He growled. I kept my mouth shut and didn't dare to look at him. He grabbed my face with his hands and forcefully kissed me.

Bleeding Hearts by bbllaacckkaangel

"I take what I want, princess, no matter what." TRUTH is hidden behind the LIES. Secrets are buried within the secrets. Darkness lurks in the Light and Light breathes in the Darkness. A tale of "BLOOD, SACRIFICES, AND OATH" What will be the outcome when their worlds collide? Will they be each other's salvation or each other's demise? My works are the outcome of my wild and roller-coaster crazy imagination that I nurtured with dedication and great love. Cheap liberalism and unwanted feminism are neither appreciated here nor wanted. So, if you have some self-esteem issues then take it elsewhere because I will report and block every negative comment and commentator. I hold all the rights under my name and by all laws. So think before trying to copy/paste and plagiarism. Cheating doesn't sit well with me and I am not generous with forgiveness. Happy Reading :)

Family by cookie2953

Part of Chapter 1: My name is Liam Cole. I am a sixteen year-old from a small unknown town named Fayton, Florida. Well, I wouldn't say small town, just unknown...very. And right now I am patiently waiting in the kitchen with my four siblings for our mother to drop some kind of bomb on us... "Liam! Are you paying attention?" Mother asks me. I quickly snap my head towards her. "Yes mama," I tell her as I roll my eyes at her. My siblings all shoot glares towards me. I'm the youngest of all five of us Coles. Dan, my brother, is 30. Then there's my three sisters; Alice (26), Laura (24), and Nakisha (21). "You better drop the attitude Liam!" Mother shouts at me. "Okay! But I-" I start. "Don't. As I was saying," mother starts again as I roll my eyes again. "John and I have been dating for two years now. I know some of you are still angry with me about divorcing your father, but I wasn't happy and John makes me happy."
