Do you feel it? That chronic feeling of empty. Nothing can fill that void, no matter how much meaningless sex you have. No matter how much money you spend. No matter how you try to get the adrenaline pumping in your pathetic veins.

It's all just temporary. Because when that feeling of adrenaline washes away, you're back to being that empty thing that you despise.

It's time, time to Feel It.

Mr Scorpion is going to ruin you just as he ruined me.

--------

I'm not a good person.
I do bad things.
I hide a lot of shit about myself.
Not even my closest friends know who I really am.
But you? You're about to find out.

----

He's not a good person.
He does a lot of bad things.
He doesn't bother to hide anything about himself.
Everyone knows who he is.
But you? You're only find out about him now.

ONGOING, SLOW UPDATES. Thank you for reading though! As a young girl you had always believed that monsters as they seemed, were always big creepy things, with sharp teeth and long claws. Piercing eyes and mouths wide enough to swallow you whole. But one thing you didn't realize is that, monsters aren't what you had always imagined them to be. They are real. And sometimes, they're a lot closer to you than you think. 18 year old Hana is forced into moving across the country to a foreign land, full of people she doesn't know, just for her father's business. She fears that she won't ever fit in, but that all changes when she comes across a mysterious boy, whom she can't seem to get enough of. Secrets are revealed, blood is shed and tears are cried but does Hana have what it takes to live this life she's been thrown into? Or will her depression swallow her whole as she fights to keep her head above water. "The mafia it seems is no place for a girl like you" "I'd rather die than be seen with the likes of you" "I can't! "I can't do this anymore. You lie you cheat you do everything in your power to make me not trust you! I've just found out you were using me and for what? To what end? Huh?" You scream into the boys face but he doesn't even flinch. His eyes still dark and stormy pools. "I trusted you. Maybe even loved you! What am I? Just a fucking toy to satisfy your musings?" You can't help but let a tear to slip down your flush cheek, allowing it to leave a warm traitorous trail down your face that cools and dries upon contact with the air around you. "Maybe that was the old me, but you aren't just a play thing now. You're my world"

I didn't ask to be born into this world, none of us did but we make the best of it. I'm a twenty-five year old single man. Why you may ask? Because I've seen what love can do to a person. It can destroy them. My parent's are amazing but I can still remember the time's my father threatened to kill my mother, left us due to his mental illness. Besides who needs one main women when I can have a different one under me every night, money to blow and fast cars. I'm just enjoying my time until I take my Papes place at the throne. Most nights are spent living it up with my cousins who are my only friends. However there is the one girl that has caught my eye and I don't know why. I first spotted her at a random coffee house I stepped into. Usually I'm very talkative especially when I'm trying to snag a chic but I couldn't utter a word to her. I barely managed to place my order. Now, I find myself going out of my way to stop by that coffee shop everyday. It doesn't matter that it's out of my way. The only thing that matters is that I see her. I knew I could take her if I really wanted to but I can't make myself to do it. She sees me enter and shoots me that amazing smile and prepares my order without even asking what I want, she knows. She'll offer a greeting but all I can do is nod my head. She makes me lose my word's. Deep in my mind I wonder if she could be the one that could change my mind on love and that scares me. For now I'm satisfied at seeing her for the few minutes it takes to get my coffee. Besides I'm a killer, a future mob king and she's this delicate flower that wouldn't understand my world. It's best to cut my loses and move on. If only I knew her name..

Broken Promises

58 parts Complete

[EDITING] It's been four years since we broke up, since I last saw him. I am no longer the person I used to be. I have gained a reputation as the most formidable businesswoman, feared by many, devoid of smiles, and often labeled as ruthless and arrogant. I have left my past behind and immersed myself in running my company. However, there remains one reminder of the time spent with him-a memory I desperately wish to forget as I strive to forge new memories. Though, deep down, I know I'm incapable of loving someone else. His name is Kayden McCoy, and he is still a popular pop star, considered one of the most attractive bachelors and renowned singers worldwide. He still carries the appearance of a bad boy, the only difference is he is really one now. Every woman seeks an opportunity to transform him, yet he swiftly changes girls like he changes his attire. And when fate reunites us, he decides to win me back. To mend our broken promises. If only it were that simple. +++ Second book in Broken series. Sequel of Two Sides but can be read as a stand-alone too
