Sit up straight, chin up, shoulders back

Do not speak until spoken to, do not stutter, keep answers short and concise

Do not smile, do not frown, do not laugh, do not sigh

Punishments will be harsh on any offenders.

In a world where individuality is suppressed and failure has no tolerance, one girl struggles to keep up with the crippling expectations placed upon her, barely surviving each day all while relentlessly trying to stand out among a sea of faceless, nameless units. Rebellions rage outside the facility's walls as two sides clash for control in a violent, stagnant struggle. The idea of Insurgents had always seemed so distant to her...something she's heard of all her life, but never seen. But when the two worlds finally collide, she finds herself thrust into an journey of discovery to find out who she really is and maybe find love in an unexpected way. 

Warning: Quite a bit of violence and a little graphic/triggering content, mentions of s/h

PLEASE REPORT IF SEEN ANYWHERE OTHER THAN WATTPAD

[COMPLETED] ♦️ A story about love, born from revenge ♦️ • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • She, as a free spirit had an immense passion for life, and due to her desire to live it as wholly as possible, she needed as much freedom as she could get. Thus, she's never been one to religiously follow rules, restrictions or social conventions that restrained her ability to explore, experience and discover the wonders of life. Although she had her traumas and fears that held her in pain, she maintained to stay true to her authentic self and kept trying to get revenge for the injustice in her life. In essence, she was the free spirit who lusted for freedom above all else, and could be reckless and volatile at times, following the whims of her heart. Everything was simpler before she met him, the one person who was able to take her freedom away from her and change her life from the beginning. But was he the one who was able to cure her or the one who was able to destroy her? • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • I pulled away, glancing up into his eyes I wrapped my arms around his neck, offering him a warm smile. "I'm gonna t-tell you something" I mumbled. "You're a good kisser." He remained silent, just watched me with some kind of interest, or intensity, I would say, as I continued. "But pr-omice me s-something." I said. "Kiss a girl only when it comes from here." I placed my hand on his chest, over his heart. "You should kiss only the one you love. Not me." • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

(Before You Leave #1) She was sent to boarding school over the smallest of mistakes... Okay, burning down your schools gym might have been a big one. But she didn't mean to do it. This time. And she's certainly no snitch. She's had a fine life. But she wanted something more. And so she created chaos. She was misjudged and misunderstood. And now she's the havoc of Birchwood Prep. They call her the devil's bitch, the principal's worst nightmare, and a screwed up whore. They can think what they want, JJ Ashton has heard these all throughout high school. She doesn't want a future, she just wants to take control of now. She's everything Birchwood Prep doesn't want, but is deemed to get after her Father decided it was the only option for her to find some discipline. She's not going to make it that easy for them. Gideon Andrews is the perfect student. Good grades, never missed a day, and never had been in trouble of any sort. He thinks life is great, but meeting JJ, she thinks life for him could be better. Less plain and vanilla. He hates her guts. It's mutual for her as well. But the headmaster has made it Gideon's personal mission to get her back on track and into a better life. She's allowed two screw ups, has to join a sports team, pass all of her classes with at least a C and get some friends before the year is over, or she will be held back. And she's not about to go another year in the hellhole called high school.

Between by immoralLaurel

She's panting, flushed and breathless like something from another century. It hurts to look at her, so stunningly alive in a way he isn't. Almost smiling, too. She has the kind of lips that need undiluted devotion. "You've always looked at me," she breathes. Yes, and he finds himself thinking about ruin. The right kind, like his knuckles against her jaw to shake her apart. Freedom. Maybe in another life, he brushes the hair off her shoulder and whispers, 'Eyes on me.' Maybe in another life, they have time. 𝑫𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓 𝒊𝒕? 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒔 𝒃𝒆𝒕𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝒔𝒊𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆. She isn't his to protect. He's a cop, she's taken, and rules are rules. But Faro Wyatt has mapped every freckle on her nose and dreamt of the oceans in her eyes. His resolve is weakening. So when the radio crackles with a single call, he's breaking every rule from here on out.

Blooded Mate by rhycce
134 parts Complete Mature
[[MATURE CONTENT]] Pack, family, mate. Loyalty, respect, honor. These are the words that form the foundation of the wolf society. At six years old, Ethan had to choose between his Alpha title and his survival on the night of his father's death. As a teenager, his family and lineage are further humiliated because he has not had his first transformation. Between dealing with a bully on a power trip, the challenges of high school, a less than sympathetic alpha, and his current impairment, Ethan is barely surviving. His daily prayer to Luna was simple: a request to find his wolf. But he would soon learn that the moon goddess does not do things by half-measures. On the night of his first transformation, she also tossed in a mate who wants absolutely nothing to do him and a vengeful alpha hell-bent on ripping his neck out. Soon he learns that high school bullies and homework are the least of his worries when he has to flee his pack and live with his mate: the warrior vampire whose entire history was forged from killing his kind. Learning to control his wolf, avoiding assassins, fighting his mate, and for his mate become daily struggles. But battles come in many forms and not always when or where he expects them. Soft, sensual victories within the sheets are as just as important as the hard-won, blood-filled ones on a gory forest floor. And failure on any battlefield could mean a slow, painful death. A/N -Warning This is a gay-themed novel with some fighting. So there will be intense scenes both in bed and out of it. If you are not a fan of boyxboy action, then this novel is not for you. PS.

"Her troubled eyes held fire. The kind of fire that was capable of burning me to ash." ***** I grabbed her chin with my free hand, making her look at me. "I hate that I don't know you. I hate not being a part of your life, like I was before." I leaned a little closer, as her intoxicating scent filled my lungs. "Trust me, I can't hate you, no matter how hard I tried." "So you have... " It came out as more of a question than a statement from her as she looked at me with her big blue eyes. "What?" I frowned, dropping my hand from her chin and grabbing her hand, instead. "You have tried hating me then?" She asked, tilting her head to the side. This time it sounded more like a statement than a question. "I have." I sighed, dropping my head in shame. "And it made me lose the most important person in my life." ***** One night. What harm can one night do? It can change lives. Turn best friends into enemies. Turn someone's life upside down. Emily Waters and Ryder Green, were inseparable, joint to the hip, always had each others back and loved each other behind the best friend facade. But one night changed it all.
