An Orphic Love | *ON HOLD*
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 31, 4:00 AM Mercedes isn't in the mood for pretty much anything besides her comfort murder mystery books movies and spending time with her best friends. Especially not after her boyfriend cheats on her. More importantly, since her brother just got falsely accused of murder. Saying that she has a lot on her plate is an understatement. She has a five-course meal, that's getting harder and harder to swallow. Dario is just trying to keep himself together for as long as possible. Remembering to breathe and to put on a smile for his siblings takes up enough mind space, not to mention the fact that he's in his senior year and he has absolutely no clue what he's supposed to do with his life after high school. But then, on a roller coaster of a field trip, Mercedes and Dario find themselves at the same gas station, on the same Thursday, at 4 AM. Somehow, against all odds, they bond almost immediately. Soon, they find themselves on an adventure of a lifetime, still barely managing to get by. They don't know much about the future. But they can hope that they will be included in each other's. TW: toxic relationshop, ED, mentions of suicide and depression

She's caught wind of the Oklahoma Land Rush and now she's set her mind on getting a chunk of land for herself.

She is well aware of all the risks she may face by going alone into unknown territory, but she's willing to take that chance to have a new start on life. Derek Greyson, on the other hand, is a man simply wanting a change in scenery. After his parents died, he'd been taking care of his little sister.

He finds himself in the dust ridden land with thousands of others, greedy for a piece of the land.

What will he do when he finds himself falling for her, along with all of her emotional demons? And for Abigail, what will she do when the stranger with icy blue eyes and a charming smile decides to break all social norms just to be with her?Complete
