Scarlett Lawson, or at least that was what she was called before. Before she was betrayed by some of the people she was meant to trust the most, placed in the worst predicament she could have imagined and sent away to a whole different world.

But now seven years later, no longer is she the shy meek fourteen year old that let people just walk over her, in her place a strong confident twenty-one year old millionaire, who dominates the whole law industry proving her potential to the world and it's all thanks to one person who showed her, her true potential.

One Night Only by cshinard

*You meet thousands of people and none of them really touch you. And then you meet one person and your life is changed forever.* College senior Scarlett Newton thought she had life figured out until it took her on a while night of debauchery. An unexpected break up leads to a one night stand with at least eighteen years' worth of consequences. It wouldn't be so bad if she at least knew the last name of the child's father. One graduation and four princess themed birthday parties later, things may have finally found their way back to normalcy. A terribly uneventful day on the job, where she knew she was destined to do more, may finally be willing to give her something in return for her hard work. The full name and title of her fling: Prince Dalton George Hathaway Duke of Ravensburg England. If you thought it would be hard to tell a random hook up that he's a father now then you're in for a wild ride. Breaking the news to a confused Prince, disapproving Queen and a testosterone filled King definitely were not on the agenda for today. Highest ranking: Royal #1, King #1, Teen #1, Moving on #2 This is my first draft and yes mistakes were made. I'll be editing in the future. Hope you enjoy for now.

Before She Even Knows by TeaInTheGarden02

''There is only one thing crossing my mind right now. If he hates me so much, then why the hell is he kissing me back?'' ----------------------- Emma White has always been kind of a loner. Her mother died giving birth to her and her father never really cared, always working in his successful company. That's why she decides to go to a college away from home, something she's been dreaming of since she can remember. However, what happens when at her very first day on campus, she crosses path with Noah Allen? He is rich, popular, cold, rude and a player just to start with. No surprise she calls him Mr. Grumpy. What is driving her insane though is that he's only too cold when it comes to her. After some not so pleasant moments and lots of glares, she tells herself that the best is to stay away from him, but it won't be that easy. After a disastrous kiss and hidden jealousy, she finds herself deeply involved into what is this frustrating boy. Add to that the fact that he is her roommates' childhood best friend and you can see drama from miles away. Noah claims to hate her ever since they met, and he doesn't mean her first day of college. He remembers her just fine from a couple of years ago and all the feelings are back. He knows she doesn't remember him and he'll use this as his leverage to do what he has to do. It's what he promised his father and himself, even if it means he has to pretend to care for her. All he cares is his family business. At least it's what he tells himself, until the feelings start getting too mixed and he ends up thinking of her more than he should. Maybe it's not all about business after all. He knows their history started before she even knows, what he didn't expect was for her to be so different from what he has always believed.
