The crisp New York, Fall air caressed my face as I sat on a bench in Central Park as I watched my little boy play in a pile of leaves. My son is my whole world. He is that first ray of morning light that warms your face up as it peeks through your curtains. He is what reminded that life is worth living. I live my life for him. He wasn't conceived out of love, or even consent, but he was been nothing but a pure joy his entire four years of life. Kayden is why I was put on Earth. Kayden is the reason why I am still here. It has only been Kayden and I, Kenna, since the day he was born, and I don't want it any other way.
If you asked me ten years ago what I thought my career was going to be, I would have told you that I was going to be a musician that toured the whole world. Never would I think I would move to New York to take over my late father's law firm. Law school was never the path I wanted to take, but when my pops got sick, I did anything he wanted me to. Keeping his business afloat after his passing took up all my time and energy that I never sought out love. This is the year. This is the year that I, Luke King, will find my forever.

Ours To Be (All Ours, #1)
𝓘𝓼𝓪𝓫𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓪 ♥︎ Not many things have managed to catch me off guard in this life after enduring years of trauma. But Kayden did. He came out of the blue, so sudden, the whiplash is practically everlasting. I've always prided myself in having my shit together and priorities straight- and I did. Until life decided to throw me curveball in the form of a perfectly handsome, charming and oh so out of my league man. I don't even understand why. I was doing just fine without him, in law school at twenty-two, focus set on my studies of becoming a successful lawyer and following in my grandparents' footsteps, surrounded by the most amazing group of friends. But it doesn't matter. When Kayden Dominguez sets his mind and heart to something- he will get it. And my façade might not be strong enough to stop him. 𝓚𝓪𝔂𝓭𝓮𝓷 ♡︎ Despite what the tabloids might say about me, I'm not ignorant or stupid. I know I am that guy your parents would warn you about growing up, maybe still to this day. I am the son of Alejandro- and Alexia Dominguez. Owners of the biggest label company in Southern California. Maybe even the entire state. That itself will have people build and paint your persona to what they think you entail. Good thing I don't give a single shit about that whole puppet show called the media. I'd even go as far as to admit I go through my days feeling superfluous. I lived a pretty hollow life. I don't know how or why that changed the second I met her. It was like something clicked. Had you told me this would happen the day before, I would've probably punched you out cold. But like I said, she waltzed into my life and...I haven't been the same since. I just know I want Isabella Khalil, the ultimate woman of my dreams, to be mine. But how exactly do you pursue the only woman you've ever truly wanted, who also happens to be the only person ever to refuse tumbling for your charms?Complete
The Mutual Attraction (#3)
"I can't do this ! This is wrong !" she exclaimed loudly, trying to prove her point. "Miracle, I really don't have time for this. I am sure whatever was decided was decided for good. Now quit whinning like a baby and get to work. I don't want our professional lives to be clashing with our personal lives. The rest of the discussion on this topic can be completed at home." He said in an overly calm tone that sent chills down her spine. "Kayden ! How can you even agree to this marriage ? You don't even love me and you have a girlfriend already, for heaven's sake !" Miracle continued ignoring Kayden's demand. This wasn't right ! And she was going to prove it. She was going to make Kayden understand that there is no reason to put their lives on hold just because their parents thought they were perfect for each other. She didn't even feel anything for him other than a feeling of pure friendship. Kayden's giant figure looming over her brought her out of her thoughts. "My girlfriend can be discarded, Miracle. And once again, this discussion is over. Don't ignore my words, baby. I don't like to be ignored." His cool minty breath fanning her face and the fact that he had to literally squat down to whisper to her made her stomach do a weird flip. At that very moment, Miracle realised, that there might be a teeny tiny bit of a MUTUAL ATTRACTION between them. ************************************ This is the third installment in THE ATTRACTION series. To understand more about this story I suggest you read the second installation first. So you will know more about the characters. Other than that it can stand on it's own :) ALL RIGHTS ARE RESERVED !

In Love With Blindfolds On
I gave the best of myself to someone who didn't have anything to lose. I didn't know how to avoid my lover's toxic and abusive flames. My lover's twisted words were like a maze inside of my head that I couldn't escape. Sadly, my lover's actions hypnotized my thoughts and paralyzed my thinking. I learned the hard way that love isn't leaning in for a kiss, and a fist meets you halfway. Love isn't being a punching bag because someone decided they wanted to beat on you today. Love isn't saying I love you just because someone wants to keep you to themselves. I tried to be there for my lover, but I learned it is impossible to fix the broken pieces when the glass has shattered. There will always be pieces that are not repairable. However, I kept going right back to the person who I needed to walk away from. I was afraid, and I wasn't brave enough to wake up from this nightmare! I made the choice to suffer when life is meant to be lived and enjoyed. Will I find the courage to know my worth and know that I deserve better than the distasteful lies that are whispered in my ears? Will I have the strength to fight my insecurities? Will, I set myself free, or will I let my love be the death of me?Complete

He gave me yet another blank stare then turned, once again, to the water as if it was actually entertaining him. I felt frustrated as I huffed loudly to get his attention. He turned to me still with his bone-chilling stare. It was a cold stare but I still found my safety in it oddly enough. I stared at him blankly getting lost, forgetting why I came over here.

Moments that define us
I can remember the fear of the tree falling in front of my car, after it was struck by lightning. I can remember how it felt, cold rain on a summer afternoon pounded on my skin as I stepped out of my car. I was headed home to my parents house after graduating college. I remember the security I felt when he showed up, and told me everything would be okay, and to stay in my car. I remember the rain stopping and him getting to work removing the tree. I remember when his gray eyes looked into my green ones, as he woke me up to tell me it was clear. I remember my heart never beat the same after him.Complete
