Reagan

It was meant to be a date of convenience. I received an all-expenses paid trip to Italy in exchange for signing one hell of a non-disclosure agreement. Ty Landon, drummer in the chart-breaking rock band Scarlet Shadow, needed a wedding date and made me an offer too good to refuse.

But it turned out that I signed my heart away when I signed that contract. There was something about Ty that made every single warning bell go off inside my body like a fire alarm. I welcomed the heat, despite knowing that this little arrangement of ours had an expiration date.  Pity that neither of us believed in fairy tales. 

Ty

I was taken with Reagan from the moment we met, but I wasn't a believer in relationships or love. Whatever this was, I convinced myself that it couldn't be more than just physical attraction. But somehow, she crawled under my skin and she lingered.

I was trying to break free from my past. The last thing I expected was to meet my destiny. She made me change every rule, and I started believing again. But that was my mistake because it turned out that I was always destined to break her wings.

*Now available on Amazon as paperback, e-book and Kindle download. 
* Can be read as a standalone, but is part of the Scarlet Love Series - a series centered around the band Scarlet Shadow and their loved ones.

Vowing never to love again, he reluctantly agrees to a bet suggested by his brother, Danzel: make a woman fall for him within a year and win $800,000. Yet, when he meets his temporary girlfriend, his emotions are unexpectedly stirred. Was it love at first sight, or is there a hidden agenda?

Will Devon manage to keep up with the terms of the bet? What will become of Evanly's marriage if she lets her guard down? Can she resist her desires and remain faithful, or will love lead her astray? _____ -Except- "Because I love you!", My voice was raw now, almost desperate. "Because I don't know how to exist in a world where you're not mine." She inhaled shakily, crossing her arms as if trying to shield herself from the weight of my words. "That's not love, Devon. That's obsession." I stepped closer, my hands framing her face gently, forcing her to look at me. "Then let it be obsession. Let it be whatever the fuck it is, but don't you dare tell me you don't feel it too. _____ Join Evanly and Devon as they navigate the thin line between lust and love, desire and loyalty, in a story where passions ignite and hearts are tested.

Sing To My Heart by JH_Studios
48 parts Complete Mature
Note: They are humans instead of animals. Sorry to anyone who thought it would be like beastars or like we got teleported to their world. This is a reader insert and they are all human. Will include swears, triggering/disturbing tropics, might have some heated moments. Read at your discretion. I don't own any of the characters or songs used in the story. Any songs that I say belongs to the reader is just for the story. All rights to the songs and characters (expect y/n) go to the rightful owners. Also this story was inspired by @OneArtsyGamer03 ,please go check out her stories since they are amazing. This is my original story but there are some similarities to her's, so please go show her stories some love because she definitely deserves it. Runawaying from Redshore city wasn't my plan but I felt trapped in that city. You never could make it unless you had connections or were from a famous family and that's not how I wanted it to go. I love to sing and my best friend got me into dance. Now I love going with the flow and letting the music take over my body. I ran away from my home with nothing but my skateboard, guitar and a back full with anything I could shove inside of it. Now I live in a studio apartment, making my own songs with choreography for them and casually posting the audio of the song or the actual dance video on the internet because why not. I work at a skate shop to help pay my bills and to stay out of trouble with the police since I've gotten in trouble with them a couple of times for street performing without a license. But like my best friend used to say, "You're only in trouble if you get caught" and I never did, so now I just chat up with them to pass some time or to help someone. When I heard of a singing competition I thought it couldn't hurt. I mean I might be able to win a nice prize and get some more publicity for my music, which was more important to me then some cash prize but it would be nice.

I wrote this when I was 16 give me a break. TAKEN SERIES: BOOK ONE TW: kidnapping, manipulation, toxic/abusive relationship, violence, death, grief, self-harm, suicidal thoughts/attempts, sexual assault, non-consensual sexual content, alcoholism, stockholm syndrome, switching partners, etc. Do not read this story if you get triggered easily. If you decide to continue, that's your own choice. This story will portray a BDSM relationship, NOT counting the toxicity and genuine abuse that goes on throughout it. Do not comment anything unnecessarily judgmental, especially if you don't know what you're talking about. Thank you, enjoy. - - - - - "Don't ever do something like that again, or I will kill you, understood?
