"Why are you mad?" My question came out in parts, heavy almost, as I worked on slowing my heart rate, which seem to have sky rocketed after whatever that was that we just did.
With heated eyes his hands pressed me closer to him "Mad about how I should've done this sooner."
He kissed me again, but slowly this time, more tenderly as if to savour every taste of me. My body reacted in a way I didn't know it could and I found myself savouring all of him along with the electric pulse flowing through my blood.

One month, one boy next door, one last wish.
For seventeen-year-old River Collins, death has always been close by. If she runs too hard, she could die. If she doesn't take her pills, she could die and if she doesn't receive a heart transplant within the new month then she will die.
But during her last month, a new family moves in next door and all of a sudden the adventure junkie, thrill seeking and hot soccer player: Derek Matthews walks into her life.
Rivers' congenital heart disease has always held her back from experiencing life's wildest thrills but with this new boy in town maybe that can change.
And who knows, maybe love is the cure to a dying heart?

(bxb) Siren Song of a Savior (Siren x Human)
I had always been taught that humans were cruel creatures with the intent of dominating the Earth. I never thought I'd meet one, let alone form an attachment. "Stay. Please, Collin. I don't want you to go back." He bites his lip, his flat, human teeth digging into the soft flesh. His crystal blue eyes rake over my figure before he entwines his fingers with mine. He nods. I pull our hands to my mouth. "Thank Poseidon. I don't know what I'd do if you left," I murmur. A small, breathtaking smile graces his lips. This quiet, beautiful boy might just be mine. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Collin has been ridiculed his whole life because he doesn't speak. Fueled by his traumatic past, he can't bring himself to open his mouth and say a word. One night, after years of ignorance, he'd been invited to a party on the beach. He thought it was the opportunity of his life... that is, until they tied him to a rock to die with the fish. Finn has always been the outcast, the siren that wouldn't eat human flesh. He was always fascinated by the creatures so similar to him that roam on the land. So when he finds the drowning body of a boy, he can't resist the urge to drag him from the water and nurse him to health. That is, until he finds that he is losing his heart to the human. A vicious fantasy romance between land and sea, human and siren. *WARNING* This book is mature, and some explicit scenes are intended for those of 18+ years of age.

*Book 2 of the Saint J's Boys* "Please," Logan gave me a heartwarming smile. "Call me Lo." "Alright," I crossed my arms over my chest. "What's your story, Lo?" His eyebrow raised up at me as his smile suddenly turned into a smirk, "Where do I even begin..." ************* Unlike every other story, this one isn't about a girl. It's about a boy. But like all stories, it's about falling in love. Logan-aka Lo-has a found a way to cope with his depression: Dance. When he finds out that his favorite dance studio is going to close down, he embarks on a mission to save it. By his side, Harper Ross. A freshman at the university who is dedicated to dance as much as Logan is. Naturally, the girl Logan starts to fall for already has a boyfriend. So how does someone as broken and unsure as Logan open up to someone with so much life and energy? For Lo, loving and losing is better than never loving at all. But can losing love also mean losing everything? ************ Warning: This book does contain references to depression. I decided to write this because a lot of this world is misinformed or misguided by what depression truly is. This story is about love, but it's also about how something like depression and anxiety can affect everyone you love around you. If this isn't for you, that's fine. But if you trust me, I'll take you through an incredible journey. All Rights ReservedComplete![Be My Escape [BoyxBoy]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/12204106-256-k1037.jpg)

It just... happened? (boyxboy)
Before I knew it my shirt was torn away from my torso and tossed on the floor, Charlie's doing the same. Our kiss intensified and I felt him groan against my lips. I swear to god, this boy is making out with me like his life depends on it! And that's when reality punched me in the gut... the words 'this boy' kept running through my head over and over again until it got through the thick fog of vodlka and whatever else was in those stupid drinks. I, Ace Loughty, was kissing a guy. A fucking guy. A fucking straight guy named Charlie Simmons who of course had to be one of the most popular dickheads in Meadow Ridge High. I am so unbelievably fucked. ----- 17 year old Ace Loughty was never one longing to be in the spotlight. In fact, he craved the exact opposite: being left alone. When Ace was 13, the tragic death of his younger sister Eleanor caused him to rapidly gain popularity and pitiful looks. He hated the attention. All of a sudden everyone wanted to be friends with the dead girls brother, they'd promise Ace he would never be alone that they would always be there for him, which he of course knew was untrue, they're all just hungry for attention. Sometime later the school moved onto other drama and gossip, things started to die down and people finally left Ace alone. He moved on with his life, convincing himself he was over Eleanor's death and as quick as the whole thing started, he returned to being lonely, weird, quiet nobody Ace. Just how he liked it. That is until 4 years later when he found himself sprawled out on a bed. With Charlie Simmons hovering over him. Charlie Simmons who was kissing Ace like he would die if he ever dared to stop. Which was all too true. Without kissing Ace, Charlie was as good as dead. *WARNING*: This story will contain themes of severe depression, suicide, abuse and somewhat graphic depiction of self harm.

His Dangerous Ways✔️
CLICK THE LINK IN MY BIO FOR EARLY ACCESS CHAPTERS ON INKITT!! *** "Calm down," he said as he brushed the broken glass off his forehead. "Calm down?" I shrieked. "You're telling me to calm down after a man just tried to kill us in the middle of the night and is now laying right over there dead!" I said pointing to his limp, none moving body. "He's fine," River said as if it were no big deal. "I didn't hit him that hard." I looked at him in pure shock. What was wrong with him? "Now come on," he said grabbing my arm and leading me away from the man. I looked at him. Sweat had formed all over his forehead and a look of urgency was written all over his face. Blood was now leaking from the nasty cut on his forehead and looked like it would need some serious tending. I looked between him and the guy laying on the ground. I'm probably going to regret this later. I thought to myself as I took a deep breath before nodding and without a second thought, he continued pulling me away. *** Cat was your average girl; she maintained good grades, loved friends, and wanted to become a famous dancer, but her life changes when she literally runs into the biggest bad boy in her school: River Parker. Aka, the boy who doesn't care about anything or anyone except his very few close friends, including Cat's best friend Liam. But little did she know that her 'run in' would throw her into a life of drugs, gambling, near-death experiences, and so much more. And to make things worse, she might be falling in love with him and all his dangerous ways.
