Dear Reader,
I know this is silly. I know that it's not meant to be. I know that I should end this as soon as I can, but... even though I know all these things, I still can't help but hope. Now I know you may not agree with love at such a young age, and truth be told, I don't either, but he's... different... He makes me want to believe things that may not be true... He makes me happy. I suppose that's all that really matters. He was... is... everything I look for, but sadly fate had a different plan for us. We met. We talked. I fell. And stayed on the ground. But now, I know. He is my right person at the wrong time. Now, I think it's time I told the story of how we never were.

~Trust Me ~
"I want a divorce." And just hearing him say that my whole world that seemed to revolve around him stopped. Gathering myself I barely managed to speak in a voice that even I could not recognise. I couldn't comprehend anything going around me. "Wh..hy?" As soon as the words left my mouth he threw the file and the photographs spread across the floor. And those photographs had me in compromising positions with not one but several men. Looking at those photos I looked straight into his eyes. Disgust and hatred. The only emotions I could see. Taking a deep breath I composed myself and tried to keep my face void of the emotions I felt at that moment. Hurt and immense pain. If he didn't trust me then he has no right to see me vulnerable too. "Is this the only reason why you want to divorce me? No other except this?" It was foolish of me to ask him but I had to make sure. Also for me trust comes before love. If he doesn't trust me I don't even want to save the relationship. "Is this not enough you whore? What else can I expect from a slut and a gold digger like you! I knew it from the start that all you showed was just a facade. Your innocence, kindness, it was all fake. I just don't believe how can I be so dumb." Was I hurt? No I was broken beyond repair. My heart ached. I felt like I was seconds away from collapsing. I had far exceeded the limit of hurt and pain. I was so powerless in that moment that I couldn't even fight with him. Love makes you strong. I have heard and felt that countless times but they always forget to mention what comes after that. Love makes you weak too. I couldn't shout at him because I loved him. But I had to be brave. For myself. ************************************************** Is love enough for two people to be together or is there something more important than love? This is story of Xander and Sophie who loved each other but still couldn't be together. Because more important than love is trust. © All rights reservedComplete

Mine {BOOK 1}
I know we weren't meant to be together. It was one forbidden seductive kiss. But my attraction to him was something I couldn't help.

But I needed him and he was intoxicating. Everything about him. I just wanted to be his best. Nothing but the best he's ever had. I knew it wouldn't be okay to have an obsession with your stepbrother. But I couldn't help it. I needed him. I was in shock that I was obsessed with this guy that I didn't think I would ever have feelings for. But I didn't care. I guess you can say I always know what I want and when I want.

But there were problems with me being in love with him but also being his stepsister. I was afraid of losing him. We had to keep our attraction hidden to one another a secret so our parents wouldn't find out or it would leave us forbidden to be together. But I didn't want him to be with anyone but me. I wanted him to myself. I wanted to be his because no matter what we were meant to be. The universe brought us together for a reason. But sometimes you can't help who you fall in love with.

The Mass Murderer Who Loved Me
"Please don't do this." I begged, as tears streamed down my face, making my mascara run. My eyes traveled from his face, that handsome boyish face, down to the floor. Down to the dead bodies. "Oh God," I choked, my life flashing before my eyes, as I felt his fingers slip from my shoulders down to the knife. He put it to my throat gently, so that he didn't cut it. Yet. "I'm sorry." He muttered. "Please...." I begged. "Please." His lips pressed against mine, and I shuddered against him. Dear God, Please don't let this happen. This is the story of how I met him. The story of how he stole my heart, just as carelessly as he stole peoples lives away from them. Maybe. Maybe not. When I think about it, I still smile. Even though I know the sad and terrible ending, I can't help but smile. He was my best friend. He was so loving. So caring. He taught me everything. But, he also destroyed everything. He was just like that. He was just the mass murder that loved me, and that's how I'll always remember him. I dare say, that's how I'll always cherish him.Complete

Two broken souls in the midst of a crazy world. Two souls running away from their past. There was no light at the end of the tunnel. The tunnel was cracking, slowly closing in. When these two connect, as if they were set on the same path, light creeps in through the cracks, and for or a moment, the tunnel seems to have a way out, but what if it collapses before they make it? - "You saved my life." The words come out as a whisper, I've been dying to say that. I thank god every day that he came into my life when he did. "Fuck Vivian, you don't know how much I needed you." I tear up just a little as he speaks, I don't know the last time I cried happy tears. I bring my hands up to cup his cheeks, resting my forehead against his. "No matter how much I push, I don't mean it. Please don't give up on me." My words seem to relieve him in some way as I feel his shoulders relax. "Even when I'm gone, I'll be by your side, forever." He brings his hand, sticking his pinky out. "pinky promise."I wrap mine around his, placing a kiss on his lips. Warning before you read!! This is my first book! This book will contain topics of SA, eating disorders, and mature content, if any of these things may bother you in anyway, please scroll! I hope when I finish this book I can public a clean version, with a different perspective leaving out these topics, but for now, this is how i've envisioned this story to go! Enjoy -Ash🌸
Love Letters to the Dead
I'll never forget the day my boyfriend died. It was all an accident, but I still feel like it was my fault. His death was exactly one year ago, but I still haven't forgiven myself for what I did to him. It was funny how well we clicked together. We were polar opposites, in personalities and in looks. He had short black hair, dark brown eyes, and tan skin while I had long, blonde hair, hazel-green eyes, and peach skin. He was a total daredevil, rebellious, and always talking. I never get in trouble, I never take risks, and I'm extremely quiet. He knew everyone at our school, and I'm more of a loner; I only have a few friends. Despite our differences, we both thought we were perfect for each other. Until mistakes lead to accidents, and those accidents fall along the lines of death...Complete
Don't Hurt Me: Book One (bxb) ✔️ (UNDERGOING MAJOR EDITING)
Book one of six in the Chaotic Hearts series. BOOKS MUST BE READ IN ORDER. - RIVER MINTZ: Listen, I need you to hear me out. I'm a little bit impulsive, and I don't think anything through enough before I'm implementing my next plan of action. And it's because of my impulsiveness that I even ended up in this heartbreaking situation. See, I was falsely engaged to a man-a straight man named Louis-who did some awful things in his lifetime. You don't even want to know. But my parents had sent me to college and told me to discover life outside my wealth. I needed money. But when I found out what Louis had done, I immediately left. I didn't want anything to do with him. He was a vile human being. I should have known better. However, I didn't want my parents to know that I was someone's pet, so while they knew nothing about Louis, I also never told them we broke things off out of fear of my Mother's hound nose discovering what I'd done to make money during college. It's been five months since I ended things with him, and my Mom begged me to come home for Christmas this year and to bring my fiancé. And I couldn't very well say we were no longer together out of thin air, right? I had to figure something out, or my Mom would know I was lying. So, why did my ex-boyfriend, Seven Knight, appear in Chicago when he lived in Vermont, last I heard? Why did he agree so easily? Why was he so willing to go along with this? Mom found out my "fiancé" is Seven, and now she is begging us to get married on Christmas! What do I do?! We haven't seen or spoken in years because we... had to discover life outside of one another. But what I never told him? I never wanted that. And now, I have to pretend we're happily together, and it's confusing my brain. I still love him. I crave him. I need him. But I have doubt that he feels the same. It's been too long. I don't have much to offer. How could he still want me? Ha. What a fun Christmas holiday this will be, right?Complete![A Genius In Love [COMPLETED] [EDITING]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/83955574-256-k169753.jpg)
A Genius In Love [COMPLETED] [EDITING]
It wasn't necessarily the way that he would talk, even though have of the time I had to ask him what he meant. It wasn't even the way that he would try to tease me about my height even though he wasn't all that tall himself. Maybe it was the way that he would chuckle under his breath when he had to explain something to me (more than once I might add) Or maybe it was the way that he would go out of his way to meet up with me in the hallways right before my algebra class just so we could hear how the others day was going (which almost made us late to class on numerous occasions) Or maybe it was even the way that he would compliment me on the rare occasion (He had told me once that I looked beautiful with glasses even though I hated them and preferred my contacts more) It could've even been the fact that when he spotted me in the hallways and would leave his friends just to come and talk to me. Even though I would point out the fact that he left his friends, he would just smile and chuckle which would cause a blush to creep up onto my features. All I knew at the time was that I was falling in love with one of the smartest people I had known. I prayed that by some miracle the feelings would go away, even though I knew they wouldn't. After graduation, it would be a long time before we crash into each other again. If I would've known that I would find him again in the future, I would've prepared myself better. But as I stood there, staring into those blue eyes of his, I knew that I had fallen in love with him all over again.

But I Can't Lose Her
"You can't be serious. You can't sit here, and tell me you don't care how much this would kill Harper and Michael," I protest, sitting up on my hand, watching him below me. I feel his hand tighten slightly as he swallows, taking breathes I can feel under my palm. "Yeah. I am serious, Leigh. Because I know, okay? I fucking know how wrong this is, and how we shouldn't be here, and I shouldn't want to kiss you so badly right now, but I do. You wanna know why? Because ever since I was little, I pictured you and only you in my head, and I can't stop my feelings. I can't stop the way I feel when I see you, or when I feel you, or when I hear you. Everything about you is in my head 24/7, and I don't ever want it to stop." For a moment, I look down at him and focus on him, but I can't help the nausea that's circling in my stomach. -------------💜------------- To be so lucky to fall in love. To be so lucky to find your soulmate, the one you want to spend the rest of your life with. That's all I dream of. And maybe that's dumb, but ever since I was little, that's all I wanted. Love. But, I found it in one of the most unexpected places. With one of the most unexpected people. I fell in love so unexpectedly, I didn't fully think of everything that would happen because of it. Because of us.Complete
