Lies, secrets, deception... but to who? 

Naïvety can be a subtle thing and can trip the victim at their feet unwillingly. In this case, it's gained the power of two more lives. Faye and Lucas are complicated as individuals, far more complicated than can be perceived to the naked eye. 

Sure, Faye is a girl living in a small town and she plays piano but she's untruthful. 

As for Lucas, his parents have a big reputation, he's forced into the small town but his untruthfulness has many more layers. 

Lies are twisted like vines but somehow misunderstandings are never uncovered. Misunderstandings do not exist within the lives of Faye and Lucas. You could consider it luck... or you could be wise and see it as skill on the behalf of Faye. 

In the end it won't make any difference anyway. Their ending is supposedly set in stone from the beginning- or rather, it's recorded words.

Don't be naïve.

"I don't like liars." 

He deeply sighs, shaking his head with the ghost of a smirk hovering on his lips with such patronisation that it makes my skin crawl with a trail of fire. "As you've said before."

"Then why are you lying?"

"I don't believe I am."

"Where have you been sneaking off to every Tuesday night?" 

I look up to him and watch the thoughts curl through his mind as if it's a movie. With one last blink, he smiles. But it's not a sweet smile, it's not a smile I enjoy looking at. It's cruel and conniving and it's the same smile I have seen ever since I met him. 

"And I thought we weren't getting involved with each other's business?" He steps back. 

A sudden panic shocks electricity through my heart. 

"Don't walk away from me, Lucas," I warn, watching as he begins to back away. "Answer me." 

"That's not something I can do."

DON'T READ IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE IT! YOU'VE BEEN WARNED. "It was a mistake! I apologized already," feeling so terrified as I moved backward. "You should have known me better than this, little sparrow," He chuckled deeply, his gaze fixed on me. "Lucas please!" I cried, now stopped by the wall as my heart beats faintly. "Don't worry it's just a little game, you and I will play, you'll love it, little sparrow," He smirked. I knew this was a trick, Ben lied when he said he wouldn't hurt me and I stupidly fell into the trap. Now, I was alone with him and in his room. I think this is the time for me to announce my funeral... "Strip!" His cold voice snapped me out,as he stared at me with a deadpan expression while I gazed at him in ultra shock. *********************************** Camilla Evans is a gentle nerd in her finals at Watermark Highschool. As a nerd, the stereotypical notion of her wearing thick rimmed glasses, out-of-vogue clothes and shoes which were eighty percent of the time, twice her size still stands. Having been at the bottom of the food chain in Watermark Highschool, Camilla was liable to predators and the most annoying one of them all went by the name, Lucas Liam. Camilla had no idea why the hottest guy in school would even spare her a glance not to mention actually spending the whole day bullying and teasing her to no end. Could there be something else to these false acts of bully and teases from Lucas? Find out what happens when the Cheerleader, Jenny Layton put Camilla's life at stake? Will she be able to handle all the torments she's passing through especially when her mum died and her sister left her behind? Word count: 150,000-200,000 Released: 04/12/2021.

18-year-old Farrah gets thrown into a whole new life with her best friend Olly. Moving half way across the world comes with complications and troubles, but undeniable joy and new experiences to thrive in. One of those experiences being meeting someone. He's arrogant and conceited, the complete opposite of Farrah. But like they say, opposites attract... right? She keeps unfolding new secrets within the professional environment where she newly works, finding out that not everyone is who they say they are. Trust is delicate, darling. -------- My thoughts are crumpled as I go flying to the floor behind me, hitting it harshly with impact. I land straight on my ass, my forearms flying to my sides to support me. The room spins slightly as I lift my gaze to try and see the cause that made me fall to the ground in front of so many people. Way to make a good first impression, now they all probably think you're a clumsy bitch who doesn't belong in this professional environment. I try to rid my fogged mind as I direct my gaze upwards, as soon as I do, I freeze. My mind doesn't take in any of my surroundings apart from the dark eyes locked with my own, sending daggers in my direction. They are a cruel grey, they look like shadows descending onto me. I never knew that the look in someone's eyes could make me so timid and afraid, I feel like prey and the predator is stood intimidatingly over me waiting for the right moment to attack again. "Watch where you're going next time, darling," the husky voice echoes off of the cold walls of the foyer, making his condescending tone rebound multiple times through my mind. I stay slouched on the floor, hands behind me as I stare up at him in shock, unable to form any words. His strident words still rebounding through me, words that were patronising and brutal. His eyes make me afraid, but his words make me infuriated.

This is the second book the first is called Falling For The Mafia Boss. Scarlett has ran away from Lucas and New York after the whole incident, it has been four years later and Scarlett is missing New York so against her families protests she goes back to New York. The only thing she has to worry about now is not running into Lucas. But instead of Lucas she runs into a nice guy who she tries not to fall for right away. Will Scarlett run into Lucas? Does she still have feelings for Lucas? What will she do if she runs into him? Will she fall for the mystery man? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Please...I...I'm sorry for running away okay? I...I promise I won't try again...just please don't punish me." Scarlett says in a timid panicked voice. I smirk over at her and slowly walk over to where she is, this causes Scarlett to push herself against the bedframe. I climb up on the bed and pin her against the bedframe. "Now little mouse we both know that was nothing but a lie, you're not sorry at all and you will try to run away again, won't you? But you see little mouse, you won't ever escape from here and today was the closest you'll ever get to escaping ever again. Now, for the first part of your punishment, I need you to think about your naughty actions and reflect on them. Alright?" I say in a condescending tone, before Scarlett can say anything back or react in any way I handcuff her to the bedframe and smirk at her when her pretty little eyes go wide in shock. "I'm sure you can understand why I handcuffed you after this little incident, right?" I ask her in a bitter-sweet tone, I then get off the bed and walk out of the punishment room, I sigh as I know what I need to do. I need to talk to Lucas right now.

His face is leveled to mine and I can see tiny droplets of water on his face and lips as he draws closer to me, my anticipation is crazy as he moves milimeter by milimeter. I roll my eyes and move my head away. "Don't do this." He acknowledges what I said but doesn't act on it. He takes his hand and moves it to my jawline, moving my head to him. This causes me to become frantic. I can't get messed over. "Lucas, we literally just had this conversation. This isn't fair to me, please don't." His facial features soften completely at my tone and he looks at me genuinely. "I would never." With that he kisses me and my stomach explodes in butterflies, turning over. He moves his hands from the hood of his car to the side of my waist. "That wasn't fake, Natalie", his eyes intent on mine against the dark drizzling sky. I can't stop looking at him. She's a soloist who doesn't like help. Especially with a huge mission like this. Will the mission fall through? Or would she need a partner more than ever?
