Death Is My BFFLAD (Book Two Original Series)
(Bfflad- Best friends for life and death) Dear Reader, Let's start at the beginning shall we? I died. Oh no, not one of these stories again where someone angelic and heroic saves the damsel in distress. If only I was that lucky. My heart stopped beating. My lungs stopped working, my soul began to lift away... And then I was saved by a beautiful man with a kind heart and sparkles sprinkled around his head in a golden halo. A cunning, dazzling smile etched his angled features and his hair lay perfectly on his head like...black, sinful layers of pure cynical distrusting evil. Evil that was just waiting to onset a innocent girl as myself and allow her a short amount of time of happiness, and then finish her off when she became older. I'll give you a hint. The beginning of that description was slightly exaggerated. The Angel of Death. One of the only creatures known that was capable of settling the boundaries of heaven on earth. The only creature capable of making one of the Devil's darkest deals to my loving mother; a second chance for her daughter. This comes with consequences of course. Everything you know about Death is wrong. Death is not natural, Death is not normal, Death is not doleful, and Death is far from mercenary. Death blends into the shadows like coal against the most atramentous sky. Death walks the earth with his cursed, monstrous and exotic features, his enticing voice and betraying alluring eyes. Death deceives, scratches, and plays with your mind, until you slowly and painfully loose your grip on reality. He'll make you believe he's a different person, that there's a sliver hope for him. Hope for you. Death is close.

Pregnant By The Joc
He is not saying what I think he is? "Cobi, did you get me pregnant on purpose?" He has the nerve to look contrite for a moment before it goes away, and he nods his head. "Damn right." I look at him, shocked and speechless. He says nothing. He simply leans over and kisses me slightly before pulling back and looking at me. "I had to make sure I could keep you, angel." I blink a few times trying to figure out what the hell he is talking about. "Keep me?" I whisper still not sure what he is telling me. "Yes. Forever, baby. You have consumed me from the moment I saw you again. You ran from me, put up roadblocks and ignored me and all it did was make me want you more. When I think of my future angel, all I see for sure is you, me and a family. Everything else is a maybe, but us, is certain." SHORT STORY..LONG CHAPTERS AHEAD..!Complete
