WARNING. Over 18's only. Contains depictions of rape and violence. 

Cadence was a typical young person, living life as expected, in the manner she'd been raised. Be a good person, work hard, see the positives, etc. 

Yeah, student life was stressful, but that was expected at university.
Life was good, you just had to live it to its full potential.

But all too soon, photography student Cadence McKenna, discovered the world around her wasn't as beautiful as it looked through her camera lens. 

A genetic condition had crept its way across the entire population, causing a global deficit. 
It allowed a frightening black market to bloom in the shadows. 
Men with no morals and deep pockets, no longer had to struggle to find a woman, there was place they could go where there were plenty to choose from. 

James Cooper was happy to sell the company of his women. Their babies fetched a high price too, in society's seedy underbelly.

When Cadence uncovered the truth, it changed her outlook on life forever. 
Some things could never be undone. Could she bring justice down on those who needed it?  But, do all of them truly deserve it?
Is anyone really too far from redemption?

Cadence holds her own key to a happy life. Maybe that key will unlock other doors too.Seluruh Hak Cipta Dilindungi Undang-Undang

Best Decision, Not Chosen oleh ajroker

A positive test is always supposed to be something good; it's written in its name. But the plus sign was all it took for Milly to know her life was over. Milly was never the star student or model daughter. She wasn't the person others wanted around, in fact, she was the girl who always found herself in trouble. This time she is facing the ultimate punishment for a teen: unwanted pregnancy. It didn't take long for the world she knew to tumble down and be crushed into a million pieces with her still in it. The people who should have supported her have all turned away. With no parents, no father for her unborn child, and no place to call home. Left with nothing, Milly must find a way to survive in a world that despises her.

(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "Attract a lot of attention, huh beautiful?" His voice hit me like a wall, absurdly catching me off guard. It was deep, sensual, something any girl (or boy) could melt over. I was sort of speechless, yet trying my best to appear unafflicted. "Only the wrong ones." That was definitely drunken me talking, as I didn't usually have that much confidence. His lips twitched up into a smirk, expressing that he understood my comment. "Does that mean that I'm in that category?" My palms began to grow sweaty and my heart rate picked up, but otherwise my body remained relaxed, appearing completely fine. It similar to when you're on autopilot, completely withdrawn due to intoxication. "I suppose not," I crossed my arms, putting on this seductive persona just for him. This fueled his smirk, about to murmur another comment before I cut him off. "You'll have to show me, though." *** Amelia Hollis was a 23-year-old writer at one of the local publishing companies, assisting a very handsome man and writing articles left and right. Her and her best friend, Aviary, lived together in a cute little apartment off the central part of the city, yearning to create new memories and important moments. Amelia always lived for the moments, taking in every little detail and savoring it like it was her favorite meal. She was an optimist, hoping to change peoples lives with her dreams. James Vallette was a 34-year-old CEO, building his company from dirt with the help of his brother. He was a realist, not really having time to deal with dreams or even love. He knew this the night he laid eyes on Amelia. It was only casual; what harm could a one-night stand do? Oh yeah, he's her dad's boss.
