abuse anxiety badboy boyxgirl childish cute dangerous innocent love masks naive possessive teen

Lucius Carter hides behind a mask. People think he's dangerous. That's true. People think he's selfish. Sometimes. People think he's the devil. Close enough. People thinks he's uncaring. Only to those who hurt him or his family. Ruthless. True.

Although most of them are right, some aren't. And if people just looked a bit closer and saw through that mask, they would understand. But no one ever did.

No one except from Liliana Cross. 

They are both so different yet the same.
They both were masks.
Both have been hurt and scarred.

They just deal with it in different ways.

But maybe they can help each other in more than one way??

He came right in the middle of a tornadoe and managed to turn it into blue skies. He changed my perspective and gave me hope and strength." I looked at him, and he was smiling, and his eyes were a little glossy. He took my hand and kissed it, a small tear caught in the corner of his beautiful eyes. "I thought, hey, maybe life isn't so bad after all. Maybe I can finally allow myself to love and be loved, and to live life normally. When we went to your party, you told me to wait for you. But then your perverted cousin made me feel super uncomfortable, so I went looking for you, just to be able to feel at peace again. And that's when I saw it."

It's not until one night at a masked party on campus, where Verena finds herself in an unexpected situation that she likes more than she's willing to admit, that everything changes. When she finds out who the person behind the mask is that made all her darkest desires come true, she's furious and conflicted by all her emotions. Verena is left fighting her desires and her hatred.

Holiday With My Neighbour | ✓ by imjustagirlyx

Savannah goes on holiday with her boyfriend and her friends. Meeting one person on the trip changes everyone's lives. -------- "There's my angel." He says in admiration with a huge smile on his face as he makes his way towards me on the bed. He rests on top of me, laying his head down on my lap. I naturally begin to give him head scratches. "Oh, I missed this." He adds. I laugh lightly. "You've only been gone for a few hours." "The entire time I was just thinking about what I want to do to you when I see you." I try to hide my smile yet I fail. "Oh really? What's that?" "Let me show you." He sits up and rests his hand on my upper thigh as he begins to kiss me. We pull away and I brush my hand over my lips to dry it slightly. "Is that it? That's disappointing." A smirk forms on his face. "We both know that when I actually do show you what I really want to do, you try to push me away a little and tell me to be softer because it hurts you too much." I know exactly what he's talking about but I try to play it off. "I don't think that's true." "You know it's true, I can see it replaying in my mind and it won't be long until I see it again." "You're lying." He takes it as a challenge, making me regret and love I started this. ----------------------------- CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE, SENSITIVE TOPICS AND SPICY PARTS Chapters with the * contains sexual scenes and they are clearly indicated in the chapter so you can skip those parts! SEQUEL of My Next Door Neighbour! This book will still make sense if you don't read that book! If you've read this far then just read the damn story!

Viciously in Love by i_am_michaela

Check out my Instagram page: gold_n_dark for aesthetics and songs for the chapters. One in a million. The chances of them meeting were one in a million. And yet... They met. And more came. Neither of them met love until now. Each one had different reasons. One was too stubborn, arrogant, heartless and careless to want love; the other one was too kind, happy, hopefull, optimist and dreamy to see the love around her. Maybe that's why they attracted each other. Because they completed each other. The good - her - and the bad - him. But not quite... She could also be strubborn, grumpy, proud, impulsive; and he... he would be wearing a mask. A mask which made him seem harsh and impassive. But once he would take the mask off, it would relieve the wounds, the pain, the worries, the hope and above all, the love. They have many things in common and at the same time they are completely different. They could've not met, and yet they did. They could've not fallen in love, and yet they did. They could've forget and move on, and yet, they couldn't. In Nicole and Jake's story, at the beginning everything is about hate and how they can't stand each other, about how they would give anything to not be near each other. But everything ends with love and about love. Their love. And how it consumes them and it drives them insane. But they love that. This is their story. Nicole and Jake's story. It's about love: being in love and loving someone; about being broken and hurt and hurting the people around you; about growing up and becoming an adult. It's about being human.
