We have now left the store and are out of ear shot so I said, "You dated that?" and she's a terrible person, I get to shame her if I want to.
"Believe me, I'm embarrassed too." he responded with a chuckle.
Our hands are still interlocked but this time, there's no part to play.
Best friends, am I right?
*****
To know Dionne Adler was to know what true peace was... or that's how it appears. Her greatest friends were the words written on pages that either famous authors wrote, her father's or sometimes her own. She always got good grades in school because she wasn't one of those people that would prioritize relationships rather than her future. Not that romance ever interested her anyway. At least until him. He was a breath of fresh air after being suffocated for so long. She didn't know what drove her to him but she had to have him.
Grayson Spade was your classic hopeless romantic. He always wanted what he couldn't have for the thrill of the chase and the feeling of falling. His biggest fault was always falling too fast and he swore to never make that mistake again. But the moment he met her, he knew he couldn't let her go. There was something about her that he admired and it was nothing that he'd ever seen before. He had to have her.
They were polar opposite's but yet, they were still each other's balance.

We Dream at Midnight (Ember 2)
Here she is. I can see the slope of her spine through that thin shirt. She's made of angles I ache to smooth with a hand, but I'd use my lips if she asked. I brush her knuckles with mine. Her skin is cold, but she flips her palm for more contact. I lace our fingers. It's enough to make her look at me. As those kaleidoscopic eyes meet mine, I hold my breath. Then she sets her lips just under my jaw. It rips the air from my lungs. It's the softest thing I've ever felt. "What was that for," I breathe. She pulls back, lashes damp, and whispers, "You're the kind of person that should be kissed." ππͺπ§π© π₯ππ€π₯π‘π ππͺπ§π© π₯ππ€π₯π‘π BOOK TWO C O N T A I N S : β€οΈ mature content β€οΈ romance & friendship β€οΈ yearning Copyright Β© 2021-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).

"You were worried about me, Specs?" He smirked. "No, Tyler. I hoped that someone cut up your corpse and fed it to paranas. Obviously I was, you idiot! I'm a doctor. Worrying about people is kind of programmed into my system. It's a curse if you ask me," I surprised myself a lot more than I thought was possible with my answer. And what did he do? Laugh! He fucking laughed! Not full on rolling- on- the- floor laughter but a laugh nonetheless. "This isn't funny, Tyler." "It kind of is. Almost a month ago, I would've sworn that you hated me. Be careful, Specs," he squinted down at me, "or you might actually sound as if you like me." I rolled my eyes. "Don't flatter yourself. I was concerned. Don't confuse that with affection. It's two very, very different things." *** When you think that all is not lost in the world. That not all men are pricks and that not all sushi is bad. When you think that there is a light, no matter how dim, at the end of the tunnel. When you think that life isn't the ruthless bitch you've always thought it was... It turns around and bites you in the ass. When you think that the past will always and forever remain where it should be... It comes at you from every direction. Like a violent tsunami destroying everything...and everyone in it's path. Can you change what happened? I wish. Can you stop what's going to happen? God! I really hope so.Complete

We Sleep at Sunset (Ember 1)
His hand shifts under my sweater cuff, sliding up to my forearm. ''Tell me you don't feel it.'' I brush my fingers over his collarbones, just above the worn edge of his shirt. Beneath it, I feel the faint shift of muscle, the stutter in his breathing. He kisses me hot and hard. Like a collapse, His hands slide under my clothes to my neck and my hair where they make fists. My scalp prickles. He lets me taste a future with him, to feel it in the thrust of his tongue and bite of his teeth. I'm panting, and aching, and still, we know this won't change anything. Still, he kisses me bruised. ππ π©πππ£π π¨ π‘π€π«π ππ¨ π¨πͺππππ§ππ£π π¨ππ π©πππ£π π¨ π¨ππ πππ¨ππ§π«ππ¨ ππ© BOOK ONE C O N T A I N S : β€οΈ sexual/mature content β€οΈ violence/abuse/trauma β€οΈ flawed characters (and development) Copyright Β© 2018-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).

Beside
''Tell me how it feels,'' he whispers. "Good," I gasp, my entire body trembling. Deeper. Harder. Perfect. Like we've been doing this for years. His hand finds my jaw, fingers firm as he tilts my head up, making me look at him. And that's it. Waves of heat zip to my toes as my nails scrape down his back. I don't think about what comes next -- him pulling his shirt on and leaving. I don't feel heartbroken when I imagine myself alone in here. It's casual, our intimacy. And it's too late to renegotiate. ***** When Fox hooks up with his new roommate at a masked club, he has no idea their fling is just the beginning. The woman he's living with is the same girl who shared candy with him under a playground slide. ππ πππ‘π‘π¨ πππ§π¨π© ππ πππ‘π‘π¨ πππ§πππ§ ππ πππ‘π‘π¨ ππ‘π‘ π€π«ππ§ πππππ£ STANDALONE NOVEL *ANGSTY EMOTIONAL SLOW BURN *MEN YEARNING Copyright Β© 2024-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).

Mate. | Derek Hale
"Derek..." I laughed not hesitating to run up to him, I launched myself into his arms, and we stood there holding each other, my feet barely touching the ground. His face nuzzled into my neck taking in my scent and I was pressed into his shoulder so tight I couldn't smell anything but him, we were so focused on one another that we didn't care what was happening around us and when we did pull back, I grabbed his face looking at the new parts I didn't recognize and the old ones that always stayed the same. {WARNING THIS STORY MAY CONTAIN GRAPHIC/MATURE CONTENT, IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO ANYTHING SKIP THE CHAPTERS WITH WARNINGS, MAY CONTAIN - SEX - ABUSE - ASSASSINATION - TORTURE - TRAUMA - MURDER - SEXUAL CONTENT - AND OTHER MATURE CONTENT OF SORTS.} Created: June 2018 Edited: January 2024Complete
