"Harry noticed the two bikers speeding along the College's gate. Obviously they belonged to that biker gang, the "Sabertooths", as they called themselves. He shook his head in annoyance. They were all such hunks that it almost wasn't bearable for him. Good looking, strong, muscular, but bullies and assholes of the worst kind. Harry had heard all kinds of stories about that group, but he wasn't sure which ones he was supposed to believe. From robbing a bank, to raping their own mother people told each other everything about them."


When Tom, the second gang leader of the "Sabertooths" falls in love with a student of the local university, hell breaks loose in the small town. Nobody knows who is on which side, but everybody knows, who isn't on Chris's side, is going down.


This story roughly takes place in the early sixties, about 20 years after the second world war's end. The prints of the war are still obvious to feel for everybody.
This is the story of some young adults, who have to grow up in a world full of abuse, hate, and prejudices. Somehow they have to compete with all that their parents have been through and still remain good human beings. And maybe, just maybe, find love in a world where the word of trust comes at the very last.

Many thanks for the amazing cover to @writtenbyElisabeth- !!!

✬ 𝕋𝕙𝕖 𝔻𝕒𝕣𝕜 & 𝕃𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 𝕊𝕖𝕣𝕚𝕖𝕤 ✬ There is a crucial moment in one's life that determines the outcome of everything; well, as books and movies would have you believe. But Monica McCaslin didn't think she would ever be one of those people, would ever have one of those moments. Brought up in a small suburb, with everything she could ever ask for, there wasn't much left for her to want. Monica's ordinary life was to go as such- follow her high school sweetheart to college, graduate, get married, have two kids; the cookie cutter life. White picket fence included. What she did not expect was to meet a dark-haired stranger sitting all alone on a park bench, at that very same school she was to attend with said future husband. After a brief conversation, just a handful of words between them, Monica decides to go on a cross-country road trip with him; putting her faith and future in the hands of a stranger. Thinking she'd soon regret her decision and the life she left behind, she realizes she doesn't at all. Free of expectation and a future that she thought was set in stone, she begins to find the woman she was truly meant to be. State by state, with each border they cross, Monica liberates her true self. 𝔹𝕠𝕠𝕜 ➃ 𝕠𝕗 ➃ - ℂ𝕠𝕞𝕡𝕝𝕖𝕥𝕖 - ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ This is a work of fiction.

❝ I love to hate you; because if I don't, then I will hate to love you. ❞ (PLEASE note that this was my first work and is unedited. I've greatly matured in my writing and please don't judge me on the basis of this piece of work. Read at your own behest.) ~ "You know....." he whispered seductively. "People would die to see us together." Huh, as if. "Too bad their dreams won't ever come true." I leaned forward and gave him a sorry look. "Ever." I added with a sharp edge and narrowed my eyes. He smirked. I stood my ground. But I could still feel my cheeks take up a slight pink. It also made me think if Sam was my only mysterious problem. But I knew better. ~ They're arch-enemies. One popular, friendly girl and a hugely dangerous secret. One popular, arrogant guy and a dark deadly secret. One ruined relationship. Two entwined secrets. They hate. They bite. They prank. They fight. But above all.....they deny. When popular and handsome Sam Drew Lockhart and just as much of his equal regarding arrogance and sarcasm, Lea Olsen Summers, find themselves at their usual revenge crossroads, sparks weren't meant to go off. They never did in the last three years, so why would they now? With a mystery to unravel and a dangerous and mysterious stalker hot on her heels, Lea finds herself in a tight spot. What she thought would be easy, soon turned into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Feeling history repeat itself, Sam isn't really willing to let everything, including Lea, go easily. Even if his secrets are in danger of being revealed. Now despite all this happening, was friendship; let alone love, still an option for these two? That too, when more than a few guys were willing to fight for Lea's affections? Read to find out. And trust me........ You want to. ~ (Please proceed by clicking on the READ button and do vote and comment! Slowly being Edited. PS: This is a work of fiction, please don't copy it.

*•.~(Harry Potter x Fem! Reader) *** Harry had always known she was gorgeous, but this time she was breath-taking and he felt an awful feeling in his stomach when he realized she wasn't his anymore. He couldn't enjoy her laugh to himself anymore, her smile, her eyes, the way she'd blush whenever something happened between them.. Y/N realized Harry's eyes were looking lost, dreamy even as he stared down at her and she hadn't realized he had both his hands against the sink counter on either side of her. She felt her stomach do something weird at the feeling that they were merely inches from each other, butterflies, and summersaults all at once. It was an attraction bigger than any she had ever felt. *** Two best friends, two hearts, their both stolen... The last thing on the famous Harry Potter's mind was to find love, besides- he's never heard of it or felt it.

DISCONTINUED Harry wasn't what anybody expected. Well, that's not exactly true, in fact he acted exactly as expected in front of them. He'd been left with the Dursleys, and had spent nine long years basically as their slave, not even knowing his name. See, Evan had been the Boy Who Lived, supposedly having defeated Voldemort as a baby, and it would have been wrong to send the Potter's other son into an environment where jealousy would foster, after all, he was just so ordinary. . . So ordinary that no one knew he owned the club Nighthowlers and Orchids or that he had enough power to single-handedly bring about the end of the world as they knew it. No one even knew what he looked like, not truly. Many characters are property of J K Rowling, some story elements are kinda based off of some trends, but it was written by me. There will be some very triggering content, please do not report. Also, I know I suck at writing descriptions, so please don't kill me. This moves at kind of a slow pace and has a lot of details, the sexual interactions, will not happen for quite a while and are not the main point of the story. (ships, however, will come into play at chapter thirty)(sexual interactions only after Harry is 15 or 16) Word count 1-90 is over 190,000, roughly 2,000 words per chapter DISCONTINUED
