Alfred Barnes - 67, a London cabbie and a living example of the phrase "dead serious". His quirks, grave nature and fondness for violence have made him popular among the other cabbies.
He thinks nothing of the news about Jack Arkwright - the escaped convict, when he reads it in the morning paper. At least, not until Arkwright gets in his cab with a fuming temper, a whimpering hostage and a loaded gun, later that day.
However, Alfred won't give in to "some punk in his cab" so easily, and it's not long before the situation turns into a series of crazy, hilarious and rather dangerous experiences across London.
Jack Arkwright has bitten off more than he can chew - and now he's got a Bad Case of Barnes.

CRIMINAL.
When Katelyn Wilds was only sixteen years old, she witnessed her first bank robbery. She was only doing what her mother said: "Take small amount of money out of our bank account. Let's say about 40 or 50 dollars". All she can remember is her heart pounding as one of the bank robbers pressed a gun to her forehead and him saying in her ear, "Wait for me. I'll come for you" before the cops barged through the door. Now three years later, Katelyn is in college and is walking home from a party her friends took her to when she gets jumped in an alley way and kidnapped. The only catch is that the person behind her kidnapping is the same boy that robbed the bank Katelyn was in three years ago and whispered those words to her. Turns out, his name is Ricky, he's a member of the most notorious and dangerous street gang in all of Los Angeles which is run by his older brother, and his mother was murdered when he was only seven. As the days pass, Katelyn begins to plan her escape, but suddenly overthinks it when she starts falling head over heels for Ricky. But with the police hot on their trails and them constantly dodging bullets from their enemies, Katelyn is torn between choosing the two things that she loves most: Ricky or her life.Concluida
Caged By Him
"WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT INSIDE YOUR HEAD?" He trapped my trembling body between his arms and slammed his fist into the wall. I flinch at the sound as I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR CRYING. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NEVER LEAVING. THIS IS YOUR LIFE NOW, WITH ME" He spits, anger consuming his voice as I push myself further against the wall. Shutting my eyes closed and turning my face to the side as I do. Moments later, I feel his rough hand on my waist and his finger grazing my cheek. "Look at me, love." His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn. You need to learn that you won't be going anywhere. You're mine." With that being said, his other hand slides down to my waist "Your entire body, your mind, your soul. All mine." All I could do was tremble at his touch. How can someone so beautiful be so heartless? ~~~~~~~~~~ All a 19 year old Aurora Shaw wanted to do was work to make a living and volunteer at the orphanage.

Blind Instincts
*COMPLETED* My head bowed in a heavy mannor, not in respect, but in trepidation. I discern his unwavering gaze over my ill silhouette. "Look at me." I opened my eyes, though it made no difference. Black is still black, all I am left with are my four senses. He will kill me if I don't look. He will kill me if I do. He will look into my sightless eyes and see my futile existence isn't worth living. He will kill me, and he will be doing the pack a justice by it. He growls a low, throaty snarl to warn me about disobeying an alpha. There will be consequences, we both know that. His lingering growls let me know he is not going to allow me to contravene his word. I steadily inch my head upwards, visibly shaking everywhere else. Maybe he won't notice my depthless eyes from across the gazebo. My life depends on it.
