Not only would she be snatching me away from my family and friends but she was taking me away from the person I'd loved for five going on six years. I couldn't just walk away from him. "Baby.." She trailed off, sighing deeply. "I know you love Abir." She stood to her feet to stop packing for a moment and pulled me into her. "But I promise you, there will be other boys. Right now you have to do what's best for you and that's coming with your daddy and I to give you a better life." "Better life for who? You?!" I screamed out, becoming even more angry at her choice of words. As if my feelings were robotic and I could just turn them on and off for any and every person. "My feelings just don't matter to y'all at all, huh?" I asked, crying harder than before now. "Speak to your mother with some respect, Giselle."

I didn't spend 5 years building something, just to walk away from it for their dreams. I couldn't do it. Sinner. Book #1Compleet

Finding Him In My Multiverse ✔
"You can't have everything." "Why can't I?" He shouted. I stretched my hand, giving him the jacket. "Because that's not how it works." Assuming he was reaching for the jacket, I moved closer but instead he pulled me by the arms and secured his hand around my waist. "Then how can he have everything he wants?" Seth said, his voice was a whisper in my ear, his face beside mine, his jaw grazing my cheek. I flinched away. **** Alyssa Lucille is rich and young, she's sixteen. That's it. The good part is over. She looks pretty average, she overthinks everything, she likes creating alternate realities. When summer arrives, she wants to have a good time but things get out of control relatively quickly as she's forced to invite Seth Harrison back into her life, the guy she might as well hate. Seth Harrison works to earn a living. He's eighteen and steps into Alyssa's life, trying to earn back her trust again.
