She ran away a long time ago.

Broken, distrustful and barely beginning to heal Layla Grayson didn't believe in fate or happily ever after. But, when the past comes knocking on your door (or in this case, lets himself right in) it's kind of hard to ignore.

Torn between what she was and what she wants to be Layla makes a choice. Unfortunately redemption is not an easy path to take and soon she'll find herself in the middle of a fight she's not quite prepared to fight yet. 

Love, lust, power and magic are her world and now, it's all up to her to make sense of it. Fucking great!

His Sunshine | ✓ by pink_flamingo_09
59 parts Complete Mature
She looks up at me, taking a step forward and smiling slightly, "How can I ever get hurt when I have you here to protect me?" "But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights. He has countless tattoos covering his body. And he doesn't care about anything or anyone else. Layla Stevens is your average seventeen year-old girl, just trying to get through high school, with the friends she loves and doing the things she loves. When these two cross paths accidentally in an unusual way, they leave and never expect to speak to each other again. But fate has other plans. Layla finds her way into Reece's life and Reece doesn't know what to do about it. This ray of Sunshine suddenly meant something to him. She understood him when it seemed like no one else did. And he protected her from everyone who tried to hurt His Sunshine. Get ready for a story filled with bad pick-up lines, twin telepathy and a lot of fighting. Like, a LOT. Thanks for that one, Reece.

He raked his fingers through her hair. 'If you promise to stay this time.' There was something so painful in the way he said it, her heart tore to pieces. He leaned forward, brushing softly his lips to hers. 'Do you promise, my lady? Do you?' The slow and tender kiss numbed her from head to toe.

It's especially hard when three new comers enter her life and really test her patience. ----------------------- "Luka what do you want? Can't you see you've already made me angry enough? Are you wanting for me to hit you or something?" He looked almost as frustrated as I felt, what did he have to feel like that? "You don't understand Layla, nothing's working" I shot him a look, what does he mean nothing is working? "You are literally trying to make me mad on purpose, why?" The fire inside me made the words come out harsher than I intended, but I decided I didn't care. He made me like this. "Because I want to help, but I need to make sure you're the right person" We stood silent for a few seconds, before the first part of his sentence registered in my head and I responded to it. "I don't need your help, I don't need any of your help" Luka snapped his head towards me, and a small laugh escaped from from his mouth. "Trust me, you do" ----------------------------- Layla is thrust into a new life consisting of pain, love and betrayal, and no matter how hard she tries, she won't ever be able to escape. COMPLETED
