"How do you do that?" She asked. I untied my laces on my other pair of my combat boots. "Hmm?" She sat next to me on the couch. "That - no thoughts no nothing. It's like you flipped a switch and turned every feeling, every thought, every vision.. Everything off." I threw my boots across the room towards my door. "Simple."

THE BOOK OF SECRETS BY TRISTAN SNOW
Hunter and I had known each other since we were children, the best of childhood friends that grew to more the older we got, he was my first kiss, my first orgasm, and I had even lost my virginity to him, we had had the same interests and the book of secrets was our thing, we had tried everything to find clues, I had thought he was my soul mate, but as i stood in our apartment, aghast!, as my jaw hit the floor when he'd said "he was sick and tired of looking for it and wasting his time with me to do it", i kept thinking this isn't him , it cant be, he's my soul mate and then my stomach dropped like a rock when he said. "I think we should go our separate ways, make a clean break, I've been thinking about it for a while now, I've got a job for a dig in Africa, and I am going to take it". Wow!, was all I could think, its like I meant nothing to him, 2 things happened to me at once, 1st I would make him pay for what he did to me , and 2nd id find the book myself and rub it in his stupid face. "Fine , go, see if I care", I said and I ran to the bedroom stuffed clothes into my overnight bag, passport and some money id stashed and headed for the door, I didn't even realise he was still here, until I almost ran straight into him. "Please we have to talk" he said "NO hunter, we don't" and I rushed for the door and ran for the elevator, once inside I heard footsteps running down the hall. "WAIT" he yelled "WAIT" WAIT"WAIT. Wait my arse, I said to myself, he rounded the corner, concern etched across his face, as the doors to the elevator slammed shut.Complete
Scars
"I can't do it! Mom! Can you hear me, Do you understand I can't do it!" Yells Axle. I run as fast as I can to her. "Axle it's me! Megan! Open the door!" I yell as I pound on her door. I don't hear a sound from the other side of the door. Did she cut to deep this time? Is she gone? She can't be gone. I start pounding on the door as hard and as fast as I can desperate to get to her. To find her alive.Complete
Raising Hell
"I starved myself but I never died. I have no idea how I survived that long without food. The floors I slept on where of moldy brick and sometimes a rat would curl up to my neck. I stopped caring. The warmth kept me sane." I took a deep breath and continued. "The worst part was not knowing. Not knowing what happened to my team. Not knowing happened to my city. I couldn't do anything but stare out the tiny slit of light from under the door. That was my life, that light. I didn't know what time of day it was but that light told me I was still alive. Without it would be darkness." I hear her shift in her chair but stay with my eyes closed. "I think the only thing that kept me going was the pain. It sounds strange but I loved feeling it. It made me feel alive, I still had something. It was the only thing that kept me thinking I wasn't one of the rats. Pain, I realized, was worth it. Because the pain reminded me that I was breathing and awake. And that maybe one day if I ever got out that maybe that pain would go away."Complete
The Bet
"I thought we were going to talk?" I yelled angrily and kicked my shoe across the room. "I'm not talking to you when you're like that. You know where to find me when you've calmed down." She responded without giving me a second glance. "Fine, just forget about it then!" I screamed and kicked the other shoe away. I slumped down on the couch and flipped on the tv, turning the sound way up as I sat stewing in my own anger, glaring past the tv. I didn't even notice Leah coming back down before she snatched the remote from my hands. "Right, real mature Aurora ." She scowled and turned off the tv. "Hey give that back! I was watching that!" I yelled as I jumped out of the couch to get it back. Leah hid it in her back pocket to keep it away from me. "Oh right because that's real mature." I mocked as I tried to reach around her only to get my hand slapped away. "No way, not before you stop acting like a child." She replied and kept slapping my hands away. "Dammit Leah. Give it back!" I hissed annoyingly as I charged forward, pinning her to the wall. "Now will you give it back?" "No." She said and rolled her eyes. I reached behind her only to be twisted as Leah reversed our positions. "Are you done?" "No." I smirked as I realized some of my anger had gone away by our banter. "Too bad, then you're not getting it back." Leah huffed and pinned me a little harder to the wall. I held her gaze as she looked at me with annoyance. "I'll just wait till your arms get tired then." I teased. "Fuck you Aurora." She sighed and pushed away from me. Leah walked towards the stairs again and before she could reach for the remote I snatched it from her pocket, running away from her. "Hey!"Complete
Missing
My mind went blank...looking for all possible reasons of where he could be...I needed him and his stupid jokes and innuendos, I needed him to take the nightmares away "We will leave you be now Mrs.Woods, thank you for your time, we will excuse ourselves" they walked away, the sound of their combat boots against the white carpet was like the sound of my heart beat...slow and meaningless What now....?Complete
My Sisters Friend
"She's here." My sisters says to me quietly. "Who is here?" I question her. "My friend.. You can't see her because she doesn't want you to. She is a ghost." My sister said as she turned back to the TV. I studied her to figure out what she meant by "ghost". "Mandy, there is no ghost. Stop messing around." I said as I shook my head then the TV shut off and the table flipped. I grabbed Mandy's hand and pulled her close. "What's happening?" I said as a tear formed in my eye.Complete
Between Ties
"Don't go inside! Stay!" She said, holding her hand up to show me her palm and then I leaned over the balcony, resting my forearms on the railing to hold me up. I rolled my eyes as I exhaled deeply. Apparently I was a dog now. But fuck, It's her! What are the fucking chances. It feels like I'm in one of those Wattpad novels that Beth always reads. She quickly rushed inside and opened her blinds so that I could see right into her apartment. I watched her rush over to her stereo to lower the volume and then she came rushing back out, out of breath. "Did you get my note?" She asked and then I nodded, trying to force back a smile remembering her cute handwriting, in fact her little note was in the pocket of my sweatpants at this very moment, And so was her 100 dollar bill that she had given me, "I did!" I said as I watched her try to brush her hair out of her face "look, the money that you gave me. I don't want it. I appreciate it but it's too much! I need to give it back!" I said and then she shook her head trying to reject what I was saying. "No, it's yours I gave it to you!" She seemed upset and a little sad that I wanted to give her money back. "Hey, come on. This is a sign from whatever forces are at work here, what are the chances that you would be living right across from me!? This is fucking crazy, I can't accept the money and the universe is giving me a chance to return it." I said shrugging as she waved me off and then smiled sweetly as she breathed in for a moment just looking at me with softness. THIS BOOK IS A BLEND OF TEENAGE DRAMA REALISM AND FANTASY - ROMANCE.

Lunar Virus ✔️
Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!
