Bought Love by 17wardm

Bought from her mother to be the bride of the son of a very rich family, Katniss Everdeen has never felt more alone. Before her wedding, she had barely had more than a glimpse of her future husband. She had no say in any of this. She wishes her father were still alive. He would never have let their family become so poor that they had to sell off the eldest daughter to the highest bidder. As their lives together progress, how could she possibly learn to love the boy so desperately in love with her that his family bought her to be his faithful wife? Can she get past the fact that he is considered to be her master and that every command he gives her is to be followed under threat of flogging or worse? Or will the youngest Mellark free her from her torments once and for all?

Wild Passion - Published by Wild Dreams Publishing! by SheriChapman

*Cover by Wild Dreams Publishing! Wild Passions is set back in the early 1800's when the first whites begin to settle in the wild South Dakota Territory. Kaitlin Farley's home is the first to be built outside the protective walls of the settlement. Left alone day after day by her father and brother, she is put in charge of keeping up the home and providing the meals. However, she doesn't realize she has captured the interest of the war chief of the Mighty Lakota Sioux. Spirit Bear is angered at the invasion of his lands by the evil wasicun. He has not had any warfare with the white dogs yet, but already three Indian maidens and a young boy have met their demise at their hands. He knows he needs to study this new enemy before he can retaliate. One day, Kaitlin ran away from home because her father promised her hand in marriage to the most cruel but wealthy man in the town. Her father had no way of knowing he'd really driven his daughter into the arms of a very handsome Indian warrior. Kaitlin's life changes once she becomes the property of the Lakota war chief. She has to relearn life to Indian specifications. The striking leader not only owns Kaitlin's freedom, but he also holds her heart captive.

The Lakota Nation by ApostolicGirl7

I combined all the Lakota Nation together in one story. Summary. The past is gone but not forgotten. A young boy named White Hawk has a rare gift. His parents do not have an answer to why he is going through this. He gets angry easily, he sees things that are not there, the elders believe it is a gift from the creator to talk to the ancestors that have passed on. Over the years White Hawk is getting worse, the older he gets the more he realizes that something is not right. Eventually, it will destroy his family and friends until he gets the proper help he needs.

Love Like A Delinquent by 3mmaRawrs

3 years ago, my Step Dad adopted a son. His name was Hunter. For 13 years of his life, Hunter was neglected and abused by his parents. Beaten and raped, Hunter knew nothing good of the world. His Father eventually became a socio-path and shot the Mother. But as he was about to kill Hunter, Police arrived. The Dad shot himself instead. Hunter is now 16 and has been living in my family for 3 years. It's an understatement to say that we don't get along. Hunter is just angry at the world. He drinks and smokes and swears and fights. He kicks me and punches me simply because he's scared. He pushes everyone away. He has flashbacks and nightmares and can't seem to take anymore. Though I know he has reasons for being such an inconsiderate asshole, I still hate him. Our family has now moved to Cyprus. We're only staying for a while, so we just got a small appartment. Bad part about that? It's got 2 rooms. Me and Hunter have to share. At first I hate it. But then over the weeks, I begin to see how broken Hunter Storm really is. He's not just a dick, he's scared. And I'm slowly starting to comfort him through his troubles. We're getting somewhere, but then the worst possible thing happens. But strangley, it's bringing us closer. He's sleeping in my bed, he's crying to me, he's holding my hand. I'm holding him at night, I'm wearing his hoodies, I'm smiling at his touch. Before I even realize it, I'm in love. { Strong Language Throughout! Includes Physical/Sexual Abuse Scenes & Sex Please Don't Read If Bad Language Makes You Cry.

Steve's Journey by Fiordir4

Steve was born on a farm with a loving family and an exciting everyday life, until the other humans arrived on the farm. One of the humans Steve falls in love with, and leaves everything behind... what is going to happen to Steve? (The inspiration I had for this story was a real event that happened to my Grandma a long time ago. She had adopted a cat from our cousin's farm, and brought it back to the town that we lived in. Steve got out one day, and returned a long time later. I could only imagine what it must have been like for a cat to see the outside world for the first time...)

Welcome Home by ApostolicGirl7

Long ago somewhere far away there was a young couple living in Pine Ridge South Dakota. They had a child who was going to be in poor health conditions. They did not want the baby to grow up this way, So with broken hearts they did the only good thing for there child, they put him up for adoption. The child grew up in the system and when he was a young boy, a family from South Dakota adopted him and they started a new family of their own.

Babies by Balladoad

This is the way it has been for my people, for as long as anyone could remember. Each new life brought with it the threat that the creature posed. Each new life could be snatched away from us too early, too harshly, and far too cruelly.
