Bluebeard Southern Gothic Retelling

It's been so, so long since she's known someone who was kind. Alexandra is running, finally.

After a relationship that has caused so much pain has finally reached it's peak, she has finally left. 

She finds herself in a small town in Texas. It smells like fresh peaches, new blossoms, warm pies and so much hope she could bury herself in it. 

This town, however, harbors a dark secret. Darker than, perhaps, what she is running so far from. And she may not survive it.All Rights Reserved

Hello Me by NikkiGiant

Moving to England was never going to be Ellie's choice. The land of bad food, pointless Royalty and weird sports (do people actually watch cricket?) was cruelly forced upon her by unthinking, divorcing parents, and Ellie was determined not to like it. But life in grey England is about to get more colourful. Having to contend with a newly-single mother, a gay grandfather and the hottest boy in town, Ellie's life is set whirling in a whole new direction of self discovery, the likes of which she would never have known in her sleepy American hometown. Ellie's life has truly been turned upside down, with more downs than ups, and she's struggling to adjust, even with the attention of the gorgeous Lewis who seems to have set his sights on her. Within a week she's angered the resident school bully, fallen totally head-over-heels, and picked up a few bad habits along the way...But someone or something is working for Ellie behind the scenes, and with a little magic she gets far more than she bargained for. As Ellie's relationship with Lewis turns sour she learns in the most surprising way that being true to herself is really all that matters.

Ares by Fr4gilexBr0ken

• MATURE STORY • Sydney couldn't help but give her best friend curious eyes after that encounter, watching the stunning man walk away from the corner of her eyes. She saw how he stopped to stare at her best friend. "Care to explain?" she asked, a small smile beginning to erupt. "We're just friends, barely friends even." Grace told Sydney. "But 'just friends' don't look at each other like that, Grace." ♡♡♡♡♡ Grace Sinclair is a sweet, gentle, florist. She owns her own little flower boutique named 'Daisy-Chains'. Ares is the War of God, he's the James Dean of Olympus, angry eyes and deliciously sinful. Zeus, his father, has had enough, demanding for Ares to start acting like the God that he is, Zeus demands marriage, preferably with Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love. Ares decides to pull a classic move on the day of his wedding, 'the run away Groom'. He soon finds himself down on earth in a small little flower store where he meets the temptress he had no idea he'd been waiting for. Grace knows Ares is devastatingly handsome, charming and confident. He is also a conceited, hedonistic playboy, who knows no boundaries. Grace desperately does not want to be attracted to him, but she can't control the overwhelming effect he has on her. Every instinct is telling her to run, to protect herself, so she does, but Ares is not so willing to let her go. He wants her and is determined to have her. She knows she's heading for heartbreak, but how can she run when he won't let her? ♡♡♡♡♡ "I'm going to ruin you. I"ll be your first, and I'll fuck you so thoroughly that I'll be your last, too. You won't want any other man after I've gotten my hands on you. Every last inch of you. You're mine." "I hate you!" she screamed, her eyes lighten with a fierce rage, tears streaming down her face, her fists throwing themselves at his chest repeatedly. "I hate you, I hate you, I hate you." she cried. "S'agapo." he whispered, gently wiping her tears away.

What I wasn't expecting here was to meet a certain green eyed boy or secrets getting revealed making me never trust again. Life really wanted to give me lemons and I gladly took it. Now the main question is... Is it really all just a myth? Or was I hallucinating all of it? . . . TRIGGER WARNING : Self harm and abuse is mentioned in the book. - those who are sensitive to this topic, I advise you to skip those parts or don't read the book. . . Contains sexual assualt. Read it at your own risk. Cover credit goes to : @fatimakaleem1 #werewolf #romance #badass #highschool #badboy #friendship #queenbee
