Stole My Heart 💕 by honeyvsbunny

Nick raised an eyebrow, then pointed at her before jerking his head toward the door, a silent command. She hesitated, clearly unsure if he was addressing her. He gave a firm nod to confirm. Without another word, he turned on his heel and strode out, fully expecting her to follow. Sure enough, hurried footsteps echoed behind him as Candice struggled to catch up. Amused, he smirked and lengthened his stride just to make it harder for her. The quiet muttering behind him-probably curses directed at him-only made his grin widen. Then, abruptly, he stopped and spun around. She had no time to react. With a soft gasp, she stumbled right into him, her small frame colliding against his chest. Instinctively, his arms shot out, one securing her waist, the other catching her wrist. For a brief moment, the world stilled. The scent of vanilla and something floral-maybe jasmine-filled his senses, making his grip on her tighten just a fraction. Her hair brushed against his chin, silky and soft, sending a rush of warmth down his spine. His heart pounded unexpectedly, each beat echoing in his ears. Candice's eyes fluttered shut, her lashes trembling as though bracing for a fall that never came. She looked... vulnerable. Almost fragile, like a porcelain doll. A sudden warmth spread through Nick's chest, an unfamiliar feeling he wasn't ready to acknowledge. When she finally opened her eyes, her gaze met his, wide with shock. The magnetic pull between them was undeniable, a charge that neither seemed able to break. Her soft breath fanned across his skin, sending an unexpected shiver down his spine. For the first time in a long while, his heart skipped a beat.

Life Can Be Strange by StarlightTextingStor

My name is Katherine Arya Hart and I live with my older brother Colin (I prefer to call him Collins), during breaks, along with my two 5-year-old, fraternal twin daughters. My daughter's names are Kathleen and Alexandra. Alexandra is a brunette and Kathleen is a dirty blonde. I'm also 20, so I'm still in college along with my two best friends, Peter and Brett (Identical Twin Brothers). During short breaks, the 3 of us would go to California and spend time with the kids. The girls love them just because of how alike they are. 1 big thing they have in common besides being twins is their birthday. The 4 of them have the same birthday, October 23rd. I'm glad they get along and I'm also glad that my brother can take care of them, so I can finish college. This story is about me meeting the man I grew to love and the dirty secrets that lie beneath the surface. Anyways I'm sure you're ready for the story, so enjoy. So...I wrote this book years ago and it's the very first book I wrote so expect heavy mistakes.

My Bella by Moonyxyx

(Previously known as 'Forbidden love') My legs have a mind of their own and i find myself walking towards the bathroom. She left it unlocked. I turn the handle and open the door. The steam escaping. I walk further in and shut the door behind me. I don't think she can hear me. I strip from my clothes and push them to the side. I walk up to the bath tub that has a shower attached. I move the curtain out of the way and her back is facing me. She looks so beautiful right now it's too late to turn away. I step in and wrap my arms around her naked waist and rest my forhead on her shoulder blade. I hear her gasp and her body stills under my touch. Still not facing me, i speak. "i'm sorry if i hurt you. You don't understand, i do want you the same way you want me because... because... I'm in love with you" I've finally said it. •~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~• A lot is happening in Bella and Noahs' love story.

In the Moonlight [Completed] by Red_Pheonix26

"Are you stalking me?" His deep voice asked. "You wish, that would mean I actually thought about you enough to wonder where you are." I looked away smugly. Max moved closer to me until his face was right in front of mine. "You're saying you don't think about me?" He smirked, fully knowing what the proximity was doing to me. "I don't, why?
