"We are who we are; we do what we do based upon the knowledge that is given to us, since birth."
Sloane River leads a life like no other - she is a professional assassin. It's not only her job, it's her life. She kills because killing is her way of living. Because that is what they thought her. That killing is a way of living.
For most of her life, she believed the world was narrowed down to the orphanage she was in since she was brought into this world. At the age of fifteen, she was taken from the only place she ever knew and presented into the real world - or at least a part of it. Sloane was thought all the wrong things in the belief that they were the right and normal ones.
Now, at the age of twenty-five, a part of her starts to wonder if she has it all wrong... so she decides to take control. Tired of getting the same missions over and over again, she asks for more.
And perhaps that "more" is the key for her to get out of her current mode:

But when she's thrown into an unknown world, sold for slavery under someone of power, she realises that everything she ever knew was a lie. However, there was one thing she knew was true, that she had to save everyone in those 4 walls from their impending doom. Everyone around her says that she has to stop, everyone around her says that she's crazy. But is she really crazy? Is she crazy to want a chance at saving everyone she grew up with by sacrificing everything around her? When everyone says no but her heart says yes, who should she listen to?Concluida
Ride Me Home
When Dani Vega catches her fiancé in bed with someone else, she doesn't scream or cry-she rides. Leaving behind the life she built in L.A., she roars back to her hometown with nothing but a duffel bag, a broken heart, and her beloved Harley. She swore she'd never return to Ridgepoint. Not to the ghosts. Not to the father who rules the Iron Serpents MC with an iron fist. And definitely not to the three men who were off-limits her whole damn life. But they've changed. And so has she. Diesel-the brooding mechanic with oil-stained hands and a past he's not proud of. Mack-the quiet bruiser who watches more than he speaks...and always protects what's his. Fox-the silver-tongued enforcer with too many tattoos and not enough shame. They're her dad's most trusted crew. Tight as family. Lovers, even. She's not supposed to want them. They're definitely not supposed to want her. But some rules were made to be broken. As sparks ignite and buried truths come to light, Dani finds herself caught between loyalty, desire, and a second chance at a kind of love she never saw coming-one that's wild, unorthodox, and utterly hers. In this town, love rides hard, loyalty rides harder-and Dani's about to learn what it means to truly come home.Concluida
Wicked Little Words
They promised it was just fun. No strings. No feelings. So why does it feel like everything? At twenty-two, Sloane doesn't have room in her life for heartbreak. Between nursing school, long CNA shifts, and raising her daughter, she barely has time to breathe-let alone fall for someone. So when Braden, a friends boyfriends cocky, charming best friend, makes it clear he's only in it for fun, Sloane agrees. It's safe. Easy. Exactly what she needs. Until it isn't.

And when the girl he once claimed to love whispers a lie that cuts too deep, he doesn't just believe it-he uses it to break Sloane in the cruelest way. By the time the truth comes out, Sloane's heart is in ruins, and Braden's the one left bleeding. He never meant to fall for her. He never meant to lose her, either. Now he's ready to fight for the only woman he's ever really loved. But some promises can't be undone. And Sloane might be the one thing Braden can't win back.Concluida
The Lycan's Flame
Her love is a weapon. It's killed before. And this time, she's sworn it won't happen again. Everyone at Blackthorn University thinks Kara is just another human girl juggling midterms, frat parties, and overpriced lattes. No one suspects the truth: that she's a Phoenix shifter, hiding in plain sight in a world ruled by werewolves and lycans. Even her closest friends don't know the fire simmering beneath her skin. But Kara isn't just hiding from them, she's hiding from fate. From the one thing she dreads more than anything else: her mate. She's done letting her love be a death sentence. She won't survive another loss. The scars she bears run deeper than flesh. So when Ryker, the dangerously magnetic lycan General, realizes Kara is his fated mate, she does exactly what she swore she would. She pushes him away. Again. And again. And again. But lycans don't walk away from their mates. And Ryker? He's dominant, possessive, and utterly relentless. He's a storm she can't outrun, a flame that won't go out. And every heated glance, every stolen moment, threatens to shatter the walls she's spent years building. As secrets ignite and her past begins to unravel, Kara must face the truth: Can she let herself love again, knowing it could destroy them both? Or will her lies-and the deadly curse entwined with her love-be the very thing that dooms them forever?Concluida

the prize of his love ( discontinued to be rewritten )
( discontinued to be rewritten ) Huntingtown was panicking; no one knew where the sirens were coming from. There was no electricity, and there was no way for the storm Sirens to be sounding, yet they were. The entire Town was awake; everyone had a weapon. They had grabbed guns, knives, swords, and bats if they could be wielded and used for self-defense; Renee aimed her rifle at the trees, looking desperately for an explanation. Why would a siren sound? They only sounded when they were in Danger, so where was the Danger? When the predators revealed themselves, that was where the siren noise was coming from. Renee could feel her heart jump into her throat. Her face went pale; they were here. They had found the Town. Terror and panic soon swept Huntingtown; everyone knew what those monsters could do. After all, they did conquer the planet and impose the "choosing." Huntingtown was created hoping that its isolation in a cold climate would keep the Predators away, but it didn't. A voice came over those speakers. A male voice Gruff and laced with a growl. It was almost as if whoever was speaking was annoyed and angry. "Although I have enjoyed seeing your little Town outmaneuver many hunters. I am afraid this is where your little games end. However, I will give you a chance to keep your freedom. A hunt. You will be red by your best hunter, Renee Madison." Renee felt her blood go cold as she stared wide-eyed at the ship. She was unknowingly dropping her gun at the news. " she will be your leader; she will be my prize. You have a time advantage. Go!" The ship took off, looking for a place to land, all while the news sank into the Town's residence. Renee had known she had fucked up when she fired at one of those predators and hit him. She had proven herself worthy of the hunt. Now she has to face the consequences, not only her but her entire Town had to. Renee had to win this hunt; the fate of her Town depended on it.Concluida

War of Praisers
Nothing left my mouth as I stared at him in shock. He truly believed that I was part of this. The man, who I had lived with and served for months. The man who I had protected with my life and soul. I stood still while, as he backed away from me quickly. "I trusted you with my life." His cry pierced around the empty room. He looked so destroyed and hurt, but mostly his face portrayed rage and determation. "And I protected you with mine." I spoke back loudly. I didn't hear myself say it but I knew I did. I look into his eyes even from our distance they seemed to wallow me in darkness. "I gave you mine." My voice was quiet and cracked. His face changed only for a second before his old one took over again. He doesn't believe me. It doesn't matter what I say or do he won't listen. He will still believe I am the bad guy. Just as Kane said, we will never be equals, we will never be fellow humans. We will always be monsters to them. "Yakov, I am not the bad guy." I plead one last time. His Russian accent comes out harsh with his next words. "Your right," he pauses, "you are the villain." I stumble back as if I had just been stabbed in the chest. It was a horrible feeling. It was never good with the emotions and yet I recognize the feeling as heart beak. I barely breathe in air as I regain my posture. A battle cry from somewhere distracts me momentarily. I suddenly remember Ewan. I glare at Yakov one more time before I take off after the cries of battle. Jade believes she started the war among the human and her kind. Nothing is as it was portrayed. The lies and the truth are hidden among each other. There is is no clear good and evil. How can there be if one does not know what is right and what is wrong. She was prepared to see death, prepared to inflict death upon others without mercy or remose. She was prepared to do her job which the Facility had given her.
