Gull v. the Feathered Pyramid

This is the life of not someone-but a bird-stuck in the seemingly never-ending cycle waking, working, and sleeping; a cycle that many sea and city birds like himself could not break. The system is rigged against them, and although it wasn't always this way, that is how it is now. It can't break. It won't break. It is impossible to break. From an outside perspective, it might have seemed like misery. If you lived in the system, it just became a reality.
But things are about to change.

For those who are afraid of letting things go to embrace the changes... I've been there too. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + "Why do you go away? So that you can come back.

𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐚 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠 is the kind of girl who makes friends everywhere she goes. She loves flowers, romance novels, the color yellow, and probably gets way too excited over the little things. Always having a smile on her face, she sees the world in colour. 𝐊𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐓𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐬 is pretty much her complete opposite. He's covered in tattoos, spends his nights fighting underground, and has the kind of looks that make people stare. He's confident, stubborn, and not exactly known for being sweet. Except when it comes to Nora. She's his best friend's little sister, which makes her completely off-limits. He knows that. She knows that. So why does it feel like neither of them cares? The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to pretend there's nothing between them. And Kaden might just be willing to break every rule to find out what happens when they stop pretending. ──────────────────── • adult contemporary romance • friends to lovers • brother's best friend BEST RANKING: #1 in Brother's best friend #1 in Friendswithbenefits #2 in Sunshine #6 in Boxer #7 in Vacation #8 in Slowburn COPYRIGHT 2022©️ vixenelle - all rights reservedComplete

[NOTE] This book is being reset. It is inaccurate, and out of line. WL will be coming soon. Somewhere. In a distant, vastly different world. Due to a lack of direct "Sun"light, the world is cold and dark. But across this foreign planet, Birds. Many bird-like beings inhabit this world. They've established advanced civilization, monarchies, and five countries across the star shaped continent of the "Starry Feather". The story takes place through the eyes of various birds across the (impressively named) countries of Lightenia, Canadia, Mountainia, Icelandia, and Riverlandia. Though the birds may have lived normally this long, a sudden force makes way to end their peace. Recommended if you like lots of death, despair, destruction, deception, darkness, danger, defenestration, and arson.Complete

⊱ ━━━━.⋅ εïз ⋅.━━━━ ⊰ "What's that?" she reached up for him, his face in her palm as she examined whatever was there. She pressed on it, and it kind of stung. "Did that hurt?" "Not really," he muttered. "Are you sure?" and he nodded. "It looks a bit swollen. It might've come from when you hit the ground or, something... I don't even know. It's just a small bruise, though, so I guess it's okay?" "Thanks, Doctor," he teased, and she pouted, the warmth of her skin leaving as she settled back into her seat. "How is it my fault you like to fight?" She crossed her arms in front of her chest, and he fully leaned in. His hand was no longer on the edge of the back cushions; rather, it had moved to her thigh. "How is it my fault you look good tonight?" he whispered in her ear. "Girls like you make me love to fight." ⋆𐙚₊˚⊹♡ After leaving his short-term relationship with his next-door neighbour, Grey scrambles to find the remaining pieces of the largest puzzle that he was born into: his life- only to trample over a tiny, tiny thing. It was a misstep, really... he'd never meant to stumble into her that day. Now he did, he could never let her go. After moving to a new place in her new town of Hazelwood Heights, July came to find new connections and new beginnings... She didn't intend to make the school's bad boy her friend, or her boyfriend, God forbid.
