Every year, nobility and royalty from near and far gather together to court and find matches for the Season.
Rowan never thought she would find herself in the Season at all, being a lowly peasant from the countryside. But a chance encounter as a child might have set her on a path she never dreamed possible.
Could this ridiculous notion of courting a bunch of rich spoiled brats actually bring her to her soul mate? Or just leave her heartbroken and worse off than before?
"Was he just teasing me? Was this just some point to prove that he knew I was attracted to him even though I clearly hated him?
My thoughts were so jumbled I couldn't work through them.
Some very small voice in the back of my head was yelling at me and asking what the hell I was doing. But it continued to get smaller and smaller every time his fingers and lips grazed my skin.
All I knew now was how amazing his skin felt on mine.
It was clear where he was going.
He was going to kiss me.
And I wanted him to."

Summer Vacation
Not only was I spending two months of my summer with my boring old grandparents. But I found things out about my family that I never knew. I found things out about myself that I never knew. I started a complete new life if that's what you want to call it. I made new friends at a new neighborhood. And I especially met him. The bad boy of the town, probably the whole city. I caught his eye. And he caught mine. Boy this is going to be a LONG summer... But a fun summer. As I met him and found many things out about my family, myself and this neighborhood, my past came up to catch me. In a way, I wish never had been. All I was trying to do was run away and forget my past, but I guess that wasn't happening. ****** WARNING! STRONG LAUNGUAGE! NO COPY WRITE! NOT EDITED!Lengkap
Chasing Charming ✔️
Complete! "You know I really like you, right?" He was definitely drunk. "You do?" I asked. My voice was supposed to be teasing, but I think it came off as a bit startled. He laughed, "Yeah, why else would I trust you with all my secrets?" -- Betty was many things; a romantic, a fashion designer, a bit more jealous than the average girl, great with a camera, a helpful daughter and a good friend. But she was best known for being nice. And usually, the boy did not want the 'nice' girl. But this summer she was going to prove to Mike, her crush since FOREVER, that nice was enough. She was going to have an amazing summer, a perfect Junior year, and finally have her first kiss. It was a foolproof plan. Moving from her childhood home in Arizona to New Mexico at the start of Junior year was never a part of Betty's plan. But sometimes when parents are involved, plans change. So now the nice girl had to start over at a new school in a new State. And when the (maybe not so bad) bad boy, Eli, gets involved, it might be hard to be known as 'the nice girl'.Lengkap
Don't Fall in Love With Me
"Who are you exactly?!" I growled angrily. She tried to free herself from my grasp, but I pinned her to the wall. She glared at me angrily as she kept pushing me. "I don't fucking need to tell you anything!" She spat. "I am not leaving until you tell me!" I whispered angrily as I leaned in closer. I felt her stiffening up, and as I felt she will reveal, instead she smirked as she whispered in my ear, "You don't want to do something Aiden, which you might regret later!" I backed up at her words as she walked away, not turning around once. "Who are you...?" I mumbled to myself. ******************************************************** Moving away from home, set to begin his new life with his childhood bff in the New York City, Aiden Blake was more than ready for this.

My Dad's Business Partner
His hand slid beneath my dress, fingers curling around my thighs with a possessive grip. "I always knew that scumbag couldn't treat you right," he murmured, his voice low and gravelly as his lips traced a slow path from my jaw to my neck. "Still can't figure out what you ever saw in him." I drew in a shaky breath as his hands moved higher, fingertips brushing the band of my panties, sending a jolt of heat through me. "Women like you are prizes, Sienna," he whispered against my lips, the words melting into my skin. My grip on his shirt tightened, knuckles white. "And prizes? They're meant to be fucking claimed. Owned." In the haze of intoxication, Alexander Grayson looked like the most beautiful thing on Earth-or perhaps he really was. "Can... can you make me forget about Ryatt?" I breathed, my voice trembling. A smirk tugged at his lips, dark and predatory, as his hand slid inside my panties, finding the heat of my wet, aching pussy. A soft moan escaped me, and I clung to him, every nerve alight."I'll make you forget about yourself, flower," with that he crushed his lips to mine. *** From the moment I met Alexander Grayson, I despised him with everything I had. But when with fate's cruel sense of humor he forced his way into my life, everything changed. He was everything I loathed-a womanizer, a violent monster, a spoiled heir with an ego larger than life itself. He should have meant nothing to me. Yet, I learned the truth the hard way: nothing about Alexander Grayson was ever simple. Alex dragged me into the hell he'd created, where he sat as the devil on the throne of darkness And the most terrifying part? I wasn't sure I wanted to escape. Because somewhere in the chaos, I realized I didn't just want to survive him-I wanted to burn with him. After all, being hated by Alexander Grayson was terrifying. But being wanted by him? That was lethal.
Little Sweet Dreamer
"Oh," he said, as my back hit the wooden wall. Damn it, of course. With nowhere to go, his arms locked me in between him and the wall. He stared down at me as he said, "So you're trying to piss me off?" His lips were surprisingly close to mine. No guy would ever be this close to me in real life, let alone me being able to handle it; I would've been so timid and afraid. But this was the dream world. I could speak and be as brave as I wanted to. "Yeah, I am," I said. "What are you gonna do about it?" He paused as his eyes looked between the two of mine. Then, he smirked and swiftly closed the gap between our lips. ~~ In a small town in New York, Hazel is your average quiet type. In a school full of clichés, she falls perfectly under the category of "nerd" and has her own little nerdy group of people she loves to hang around. They respect the fact that she's non-verbal. The thing that plagued her, surprisingly, is not her inability and refusal to speak, but her ability to go through anybody and everybody's dreams. This is not something she can control, nor something that's necessarily dangerous. It just happens. One second she's in darkness, the next second she happens to be in someone's dream. But, when she stumbles into a dream of a guy she never knew existed in her grade of 500 students, albeit his popular status, both her worlds get flipped upside down.Lengkap
The Vampire's chosen mate (Completed)
"I found my mate and I think she just rejected me so... yeah happy me," I responded. I tried to keep my voice neutral so, that I could hide my pain. But it was a terrible fail. "Well if it makes you feel any better, I don't have a mate either brother," Damien responded. For someone who was human, that is before I turned him, he sure did lack empathy. "Does she not like your form?" He asked after realizing that he was not making me feel any better. I looked different. Yes, that was true. But not that much different. Besides, I know that that wasn't the reason why she rejected me, if I can call it a rejection that is. My mate rejected me because I was of low status and income. Damn it, I was mated to a gold digger. XXXXXX *Cover done by @hey_ma_bitches *I don't own any of the pictures in this book.

[EDITING IN PROCESS.] In a kingdom wrapped in shadows and whispered secrets, where loyalty is sold for gold and love is considered a dangerous weakness, some hearts are born not to shine... but to endure. In a palace where beauty is judged by skin and worth is decided by blood, silence becomes survival. Vidya Gupta was never meant to belong there. Eighteen years old, dark-skinned, quiet, and invisible to the world, she was the daughter of a royal advisor who dreamed not of crowns, but of freedom, knowledge, and a life beyond the palace walls. But fate dragged her into the palace as a backup bride. A replacement, a shadow, a girl meant to be forgotten. Books became her only escape. Freedom, her only dream. Disguised as a maid, she walked through corridors never meant for her footsteps. And that was when he saw her. Rudra Vikrampuri, the crown prince. Twenty-one years old. Cold. Ruthless. Untouchable. Known across kingdoms as the Demon of War. A prince who ruled battlefields with iron hands and hearts with silence. A warrior who trusted no one. A man who believed love was weakness. To him, she was just a servant. Until she wasn't. Between stolen glances and harsh words in gilded halls, a forbidden bond began to bloom, a love the palace never wanted, a connection power could never allow. But in a kingdom where thrones are hunted, secrets are lethal and betrayal hides behind every smile, love is not a blessing. It is a threat. When enemies rise and conspiracies unfold, Will Rudra choose the crown...or the girl the palace tried to erase? Will Vidya survive loving a prince, who was never taught how to love? Will two hearts survive the shadows of the throne? Or will love itself become the greatest danger of all? ✦ Royalty ✦ Secrets ✦ Dark Romance ✦ Forbidden Love ✦ Slow Burn ✦ Hate to Love ✦ Betrayal ✦ Intrigue For hearts that dare to fall in love with darkness. 🌹 This story is for you.

"i mean it, scarlett." he murmurs. "if anyone lays a fucking hand on you again." he doesn't finish his sentence. he doesn't have to. the promise in his voice is enough. i should say something, i don't know maybe push him away, all this tension has been alot, but instead i just stand there looking at him. the way his dark eyes linger on mine, the way his fingers rest so lightly against my skin, like he's trying to memorize the feel of me. it's a dangerous game we're playing, axel and i. and i think we both know we're about to lose. - I kiss her like I need her to feel it, to understand that no matter how fucked up we are, we belong to each other. Always. Because she's worth it. She's worth every bit of this chaos. Worth people thinking I'm weak because I didn't punish her the way they expected. Worth the looks, the whispers, the judgment. She pointed a gun at me. She betrayed me. And I didn't do a damn thing about it. And if she asked me to get on my knees for her right now, I fucking would.
