I looked up into the dark dangerous depths of his eyes which held a promise and so much more, as he closed the distance between us and towered over me possessively. 'No' he rasped, leaning towards my ear, sending shivers down my spine.

'And there's nothing I can do to change your mind?' I cocked my head. 

─── : *.☽ .*  ───

She was eloquent like a lady, addictive like a drug. A coy smile ways tugging at her soft lips, the source of threatening words and dangerous commands. Voice as sweet as honey, cloudy deceiving eyes, cascading black hair of a goddess. The second most wealthy, powerful woman in all of England. 

He was captivated by her wilderness, entranced by her wit. Raven black hair and dark blue-gray eyes, power seething from his very scent, a hard jaw begging to be touched and a voice hotter than hell. The wealthiest, most powerful man in all of England. 

Refusing your attraction is a sin. 

─── : *.☽ .*  ───

Her determination to buy his coal mine soon turned into curiosity and intrigue. She had never wanted something more, the coal mine of course, not the darkishly attractive man who was nothing more than an arrogant, misogynistic bastard! 

Or at least that's what she had thought.

Warning: DARK ROMANCE Story contains detailed mature scenes possessing dubious consent not recommended for age group below 18 years old. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! Prologue Shadows engulfed his angelic features oozing devilish intentions. It wasn't until he took a step towards her did the gravity of situation descended upon and even then she couldn't do anything but shake in fear. She knew making a run for it won't do a thing, calling was not an option and if she screamed...she opened her mouth to shrill but a meek plea came out. Her body's lack of response terrified her, tears gathered in her orbs with horrible anticipation. With his each step nearer she gripped the frame of her window tighter hoping to keep her balance. It took him three steps to be inches away from her body. He slowly took his suit jacket off, making himself comfortable as he amusingly watched her shaken face. She was so horror-stricken to even look at his face. She gulped as his hand cupped her neck in a gentle grip, guiding her eyes to his. His eyes slipped from the hold of her eyes to her lips in a second. She grew self conscious all over again. His heated gaze on her lips was unwavering. In the moment of bewilderment and growing self awareness her tongue unconsciously wiped her lips wet and it was all it took for him to descent on her lips. Description Had it been upto him he'd have broken her down to pieces and never put her togather, instead, he let her build herself, he watched her collapse and stand, die and live, float and drown all the while playing her body like a putty in his hand. Her husband had never been gentle, his ways was one of his kind. He read her like a book and used her spells against her. She was vividly aware of what she was getting herself into but nothing could prepare her for the don who brought everyone on his feet and she was no exception. How would she survive his ways or even would she?

I pushed him after that, greatly embarrassed by my actions and his confession. "You're such a manwhore, Aidan. I really hate you and don't you ever show your ugly face to me ever again." "Says the ugliest girl I've ever seen on this planet, lol. I don't want to see your ugly face again either. You disgust me with your holier than thou attitude. I guess I'll be finally free, without having you to follow me everywhere I go like a dog follows a bone." He yelled with a hard glare on his face and I couldn't help but break down in hysterical tears. I couldn't believe the boy standing before me was the same boy I grew up with. That same boy who would do anything just to make me happy? Like a dog follows a bone? Is that his perspective of me, that I follow him everywhere like a dog? I couldn't control myself as more tears poured out my eyes. "Thank you very much, Aidan. Thank you for your honesty, I appreciate that." I said slowly in hiccups and run away from him. "I wish you a happy sex with Sheldon and the rest of the school population, Emerald. You're free to be a hoe now." He said before I could get out of earshot and that made me cry more. I run upstairs to the comfort of my room and cried bitterly. The words kept ringing in my ear, "ugly, dog, hoe, sex, bone." Everything felt like a dream but it was a reality and I promise to hate Aidan for the rest of my life. _______________________________________________ Emerald Blue Woode seemed to have it all-a loving father, an ideal best friend, a sprawling mansion, and wealth beyond measure. But, an unsettling change was brewing in the air. Aidan, her steadfast best friend of over a decade, was no longer content with their platonic bond. A sinister determination had taken root within him, and he was willing to do whatever it took to transform their relationship into something more. What secrets lurked beneath this facade of perfection, and how far would Aidan go to claim what he desired most? Mature Content✔

He asks her to be his forge fiancée to run away from the marriage his parents have framed for him. ************ "I will," she said in a dark tone. "Okay let's talk tomorrow, my desperate arrogant boss must have sent me more work through email and I am in the middle of the street so I have to go," she said while rolling her eyes. She was standing in front of the bridge. She hung up the phone and turned around. The horror was standing alive and well in front of her. Her breath stopped and her very own voice was surrounding her head. "Desperate, arrogant" She felt her head spinning around. He was staring at her expressionlessly. He walked slowly towards her while she walked backward. "Desperate? Arrogant? Am I?" he said in a very deep voice. She felt her voice had gone to hell. She was trying to speak but no sound, just words. "I think you have not seen how desperate I can be" he brought his lips near to her ear and said in a whisper. He grabs her and put her on his shoulder. She felt his shoulder blades pinned hardly on her left rib. Warning: The spelling and grammar are bad but I'll try to edit it once the book is completed.

WARNING: THIS BOOK IS CUTE, HOT, SWEET, SEXY, ROMANTIC, MUSSY, DRAMATIC, EMOTIONAL, INTENSE. Beware. EXTRACT (SUMMARY BELOW): “Like father, like son” The truth of the words hit me then. A cruel smile caught up with me. Somewhere at the back of my head, I couldn’t believe what I had just said, but I refused to let the guilt creep into me. If I called him huge before, I didn’t know what I should be calling him now. His entire six and a half foot frame began expanding animistic-ally. Charging like an angry bull, he reached me in two long strides. His eyes budging in fury. As suddenly as he started, he stopped. “You said what?” “Monster” I whispered back. But unwillingly my eyes dropped on the floor. No he did not scare me, but I could not bring myself to look into his eyes after what I just said to him. Nonetheless, he was a monster. Next thing I know, his large rough hands pulls my waist to his torso. Shocked, I looked at him. My eyes flared at his, my eyebrows raised in aftershocks. I flinched at his touch, but his arm kept me in place. I couldn’t no longer read his eyes. He used his free arm to grip my chin and pull it until my neck stretched back, until I looked directly at him. “Say that again” he repeated. ***########*** Curiosity kills the cat. She had never expected the cost of peeking into a stranger’s room to be her freedom. Rosaline James was what we might call a goody-two-shoe. Her dream trip to England gives her more than she bargained for. Fun, excitement she was expecting, but what she never expected was to fall under the mercy of a monstrous possessive billionaire. Nathan Hamilton. She is certain that dangerous trip to London and back to America under the ruthless Hamilton heir would make her experience heights of hatred. But yet why does it feel like she has instead found the key to love? --------------------- FOLLOW ME TO HAVE ACCESS TO THE ENTIRE BOOK.

"Aeryn? Why would I want to leave you?" "Because," I began, "Maybe- no, definitely -you'll see me for the weak, selfish person I truly am." I said shakily, giving a soft but depressing chuckle. He stared right at me. Through my front. "You're right. I see you- But I see you for the Primrose you are, Aeryn, and I don't care if you're happiest in the dark, as long as I'm right beside you, just to see you bloom." And there was oxygen in the darkness again. -------------------------------------------------------
