Sincerely Yours
In 1800s England, a well-meaning but selfish young woman will do anything to avoid matrimony to the county's finest suitors and to justly prove she doesn't need a husband to find her way in society. Even under the peril of her uncle losing his property and business to debt. In all but two months, she must prove to her family she's more than capable without a husband and can, in fact, exceed society's expectations of the female sex. But what woman can write what she hardly knows of the world, and its secrets? And most of all, how far is she willing to prove herself toward society and the Lord? At what cost for love? Maxmillian Knightley has returned from university in London, now facing the looming title of marquis. With that title comes responsibility to interact with those he despises most, and with which he must fight for his inheritance. But how far will he go in order to grow favor in the scrutiny of society and his stiff-neck father? He may be everything a woman of the ton looks for in a husband - titled, wealthy, and cheek bones that can draw in any woman - but he is in no mood to humor eligible women by participating in all things reformed. The question is: how far will he go to do everything against his own sensibility and judgment? For inheritance ... or for loyalty and love? The only common enlightenment between two entirely different sexes? A fondness for penmanship and our humorous Lord who writes the very novelty of life itself. And what happens if proving oneself leads to something quite worse? When it comes to love, making the right choices, these two are their own worst enemies.

"She was a rogue agent. A master in worshipping her work and herself. But suddenly she disappeared, without any track. Some thought she is dead, some thought she has taken a momentarily break and some thought she was still looking out for a chance to pounce on any other gang. I don't blame them, she had a track record for doing that and she was pretty good at it." Her last kill before she vanished out of this world of war, was one of the biggest group of smugglers. Now, many other groups and rogue agents are trying to track her down for one reason or another, but in that crowd this last group which she tackled down to ashes is also included. Not revenge but something bigger. More than hard feelings, more than just a rage of vengeance. Something to gnaw at for a specific reason. Any guesses why this group is searching for it's biggest enemy? ●●●●● "Why did you refuse...?! "Beacuse...I don't want to lose the people ..I c-care for anymore..!"

Awkward Stars
note: this was written by my thirteen year old self highest -- #177 in Science Fiction // From Awkward Stars: "Idiots, how did we loose a sixteen year old in a glass room?!" a voice silences them all. I slip out of my corner and into the now empty hallway, shutting the doors behind me. I race as fast as I can away from that interrogation room and tears stream down my face. I've tried so hard to be good. I've tried so hard to fit in. What have I done to deserve this? Lost in thought, I can't look where I'm going. My face connects with a human-feeling thing. "Emma?" Tyler asks and states. I look up into his cold eyes. "You?" I push past him, slamming my shoulder on his. Pain spikes through me, but all I can think about is getting out of here. There are black dots in my vision. I hear yells and calls after me, but they are faded. I burst through the first door I find. A mob of people await me, but they aren't about to arrest me. I collapse into the nearest persons chest. "Get her back to headquarters." xxx UPDATED EVERY SINGLE MONDAY FOR #AWKWARDMONDAYSComplete

Your Shadow ||J.JK Vampire||
Her life was already in chaos, but everything unraveled further the moment he appeared. What happens when you become a prey, and your predator is a vampire? ----------- I reached out to grab the knife , but before my fingers could touch it, a figure appeared in front of me in a flash of light. The knife flew straight into his hand as if drawn by some invisible force. He stood tall, his eyes glowed a deep, blood-red. Tilting his head slightly, his lips curved into a faint, teasing smirk, his presence sending a chill straight through me. "You've got the guts to even think about hurting me?" he said in a low, husky voice that sent shivers down my spine. "That's... very rude of you, young woman." he moved closer, crawling toward me. "D-don't come near me," I whispered, scrambling back, but before I could get away, his hand shot out and grabbed my leg, pulling me toward him. Now he was above me, and I was pressed under him. My heart raced, a chaotic mix of fear and dread. His gaze burned into mine. "Knives are dangerous," he said softly, his voice calm but chilling. "They can hurt you, young woman," he made a cut in my throat. just enough to draw a thin line of pain. I froze, too terrified to move. Tears slipped down my cheeks. He leaned close and licked my tear, giving me goosebumps all over my body. I can feel his cold breath. He bent down to my neck and licked the blood. I started struggling, pushing him away with all my strength, but he grabbed both of my hands, holding them firmly as he rubbed his lips on my old bite mark, then gave a soft kiss and started biting it. It was so rough that I started crying loudly and begged him to stop. Helplessness flooded me. ------------ "You can't do that to me," she whispered, a tear slipping down her cheek. He gripped her jaw, his gaze piercing into her soul. "You'd love to know what else I can do to you, pretty woman," he murmured. #1 in jungkookvampire #1 in jkfiction #1 in vampireslove #1 in vampirebts #1 in jkjk
