Annabelle hadn't wanted to burn the restaurant down initially. 

In all honesty, she had been in a good mood. The food smelled great, the weather was perfect, and the boy she had met on Tinder looked like an absolute snack in all his pictures. 

But then, he rocked up to the date half an hour late, without an apology. Worse yet, he didn't look anything like his Tinder photos. 

In fact, he looked old enough to be her uncle. 

Still, she has to admit that, while her date sucks, the food is tasty. Plus, the waiter is also pretty cute. 

Besides, when that same waiter offers her a hand in serving some revenge to her catfishing date, Annabelle just can't say no. 

Does this charming waiter spell trouble? Possibly. 

But, surely, once revenge is served cold, there is always room for dessert, hey?

I decided to explore a little and found a room that had a beautiful black bed. It was very masculine, but the smell gave me butterflies.

Recipe for Love by SmlAlwaysOriginal
13 parts Complete Mature
Book 2 of the Chimera Trilogy He wasn't really looking for it but when love shows up he has to decide whether he'll accept it or not. New connections, old ties, and surprising revelations are ingredients for lasting love or for instructions to a charred heart. Ecerpt: Mike was tall like Alex, slim like him, had the same blue eyes and black hair. I could only conclude that my brain was looking elsewhere for an Alex substitute. That was not flattering to myself or fair to him. It was easier I guess to pick a fight then actually let myself like him. His eyes flipped to mine again. That eyebrow went up and he smirked. Now he was laughing at me. I straightened and turned to lean against the pole with my back to him. Maybe it was time to find a nice girl to date. The trouble was I hadn't been interested in anyone enough to want to go on a date, and I wasn't the kind to do one night stands. My eyes flipped to Alex. He was smiling and laughing at something Tyler was saying. I was happy for him but if I really let it be felt, I was jealous, a little that Tyler got him and I didn't, but I think it was more that they were together and happy and I had no one. I'd finally hit that age I wanted family and children. "Here." A plate appeared in front of me. I looked around and saw Mike holding it out. "What's this?" "That's commonly known as food. You eat it. I've noticed you favor the mushroom soup, stuffing with gravy and corn on the cob. Here you go." I took the plate. Why on earth had he not only noticed what I ate but brought me a plate of it.

"Jess, would you please get his order." Lisa winked at me and pointed the guy near the door. She is my one and only bestfriend since kindergarten. "Okay." I wore my waitress apron and put my phone and car keys on the pocket. I dragged myself to the guy's table to get his order. "Good Morning, Sir. Can I take your order?" The guy put the menu down on the table and he's checking me out! Jerk. "I'll just have the waitress in front me. Name your price." He winked at me. "Jerk!" I got the glass of water from the other table and poured it from his head to his pants so that it looked like that he'd pee on it and I stormed out from the restaurant. Who does he think he is?!? --------------------------------------------------- Jessica is the only child of the highest tax payers in the country and belong to the top 5 richest persons in the world. Her parents own a hundred of five star restaurant chains and hotel & casinos in the country and a hundred more around the world.

Jessica doesn't want other people to know that she's the daughter of the richest couple in the country but of course almost everyone knows about it. She wants to have a simple life. One thing about Jessica is that, she hates guys because she was 'only' cheated and used by four guys already. They used her money and these four guys, she'll see them again at school and that bothers her so much. She don't feel love or hurt from guys anymore. Her heart is numb. It feels nothing. For guys.

"But seriously, why won't you go on a date with me? Just one date, come on." "The question is why would I ever want to go on a date with you?" I muttered in barely suppressed annoyance. He shrugged as if the reason was obvious. "Well that's easy. I'm good looking, cute, smart," he listed. "Funny, and did I mention hot?" "Cocky too." I piped in, earning a frown him. "Tell me one good reason for you to not like me." He said firmly. "For a start, you are a blackmailer." I stated accusingly, narrowing my eyes in his direction and pointing a finger at him. "And most importantly, you are not fictional." ........ Warning: Contains mentioning of some dark themes like domestic violence and child abuse. Edit. Completed.

Our Secret To Keep. by ELShorthouse
27 parts Ongoing Mature
A delayed flight. A stranger at a hotel bar. A one night stand. Stranded in New York for an extra night than planned due to a delayed flight, I needed to find a way to keep myself occupied, and I soon found that something. It was easy enough when the handsome stranger introduced himself to me as Kade. It has been a while since I have had a hot one-night stand, and he reminds me how fun it can be. There are no questions, expectations or reasons to see one another again. What I don't expect is our night together to come around and bite me in the ass. When I arrive at a family dinner with my parents and two older sisters to celebrate my return home to Scotland, he is sitting right there with them. Not only is he my father's new business partner, but he is my sister's blind date set up by my parents. We pretend to be strangers because things would become complicated if we didn't. No one ever needs to know about what happened between us. My dad would freak out if he found out about us because he is overly protective of me as the youngest, and with the age gap between Kade and me, my father wouldn't approve. My relationship with my older sister is already strained; I don't need to make things worse between us. Even though he doesn't seem interested in her and he tries his best to show that it could still make all hell break lose. My sister hates losing. She always gets what she wants. I should stay away from him, but it is easier said than done with the tension and chemistry between us, and we struggle to fight against it. No matter what happens, it needs to be our secret to keep.

After five years and a thousand regrets, two old lovers meet again.. "What kind of stunt are you pulling out this time?" I see his eyes blaze in blue fire. And I think I saw regret flash, too, before he blinks it gone. "I am going to win you back." he states as if those are the most natural thing in the world. As if it was as easy as ABC. He went behind his table and sits like a king. He looks at me from head to toe. Did I just saw love in those eyes? But it's too quick; I even thought I only imagined it. "And do you think, buying the company I am working at will help you with your fucking mission on Earth?" I snap taking two steps forward. He stands up, and put both of his hands in the table and lean his body closer to me, putting his weight on his palms. So close, I can even smell his cologne that mixed so naturally with his aftershave. It reminds me of summer. Of him. Of the love we'd shared.

C O M P L E T E D "Date me," he spins the whiskey around in the glass and fixes me with a smirk. I roll my eyes the moment the words roll off his tongue. "Are you really that desperate?" I scoff in response, fighting back the ever prominent blush. His smirk widens as my face flushes red and he leans over the countertop towards me. I step back. "Name your price," he replies, his words cool and smooth like ice cream. Only I would reference food at a moment like this. Anger rolls around in the pit of my stomach; I may not have money but I have morals. "You can't buy people, Grant," The words fall out of my mouth and he recoils as if slapped. I'm glad. Stupid rich boy and his player ways. "Bet I can," I resist the urge to slap the smug look of his face and scoff again. "Right," I drag out the word, rolling my eyes. I step away from the counter and turn my back on him, desperate to leave. But he speaks again. "Date me. Two months. If you fall for me for my money, I win. If I fall for you for who you really are, you win." I consider this for a moment. I have nothing to loose and really not much to gain. But I'm so desperate to put the asshole in his place that I can't resist. I'm a sucker for a bet. "Deal."
