Art school student Elizabeth has no idea that her passion for drawing is bringing her closer discovering a hidden world. One of magic, wealth, and a secret society of artists dating as far back as the renaissance.

The Art Institute's collection, like most prized art at modern museums, contains magic. Magic that has been protected and hidden away for centuries. When Elizabeth's drawings begin to come to life, her life is turned upside down as she discovers a secret school within her normal University that trains artists to master their powers.

Mesmerized by her new classmates and the world of old wealth she's stumbled into, she doesn't realize the consequences being able to imagine things into existence until cracks start to show in her perfect new fairtytale life.

This complex, slow-build story follows a teenage art student and her friends as they navigate the very grown-up world of fine art, where rare enchanted works are killed for and sold for millions. Filled with powerful adult enemies, including a misogynistic bank executive and his private security, Elizabeth must unravel the truth of the collection before she loses her friends, her scholarship, even her power itself.

"You ungrateful bitch. I keep a roof over your head, and this is the thanks I get?" "You could have killed her," I retort, trying to muster up confidence that I don't possess. "What if she goes to the cops, Dad? That bruise on her face is enough to get you arrested and charged with assault." "What? You mean when she tripped over the mess you made in the kitchen?" His smile is so wicked that it chills me to my core. "She ain't going to the cops. Hell, she'll probably be back here tomorrow." "You're a bastard," I whisper, tears filling my eyes. "No wonder Mom left! She probably couldn't bear to spend another second with-" I'm pushed to the floor. I scramble backwards as he approaches me, his cheeks scarlet with rage, his pupils the size of needle points. In fourteen years, I've never seen him this mad. I've really done it this time. -------------------- (COMPLETED) Life is hard when nowhere feels like home. For Layla Dodds, there is only one goal: survival. Abandoned by her mother and abused by her father, she dreams of the day she can finally escape the hick town she's been forced to call home. She just has to graduate first. With a genius level IQ and her best friend, Damian, by her side, she thinks she can weather any storm. Except the universe might have other plans. Four Walls is a tale of friendship, first loves, heartache, a little bit of magic, and a lot of self-discovery. Join Layla as she tries to make it through the hardest part of any teenager's life: high school. ~Book One in the Mind Over Mayhem series.~

She's the new girl, and everyone's obsessed with her. Perfect grades. Perfect looks. Perfect confidence. She doesn't need anyone, doesn't try to impress anyone. Guys want her, girls want to be her, and the whole school watches her like she's some kind of goddess. 𝐒𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐚 𝐀𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫 was the definition of control. A quiet perfectionist, she lived her life by a strict schedule, keeping everyone at arm's length. Smart, composed, and flawless, no one could break through her walls. That is, until Nathan noticed her. 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫 was naturally brilliant, but unlike Sophia, he thrived in chaos. He didn't need to plan-he simply did what he wanted. And what he wanted was to push Sophia out of her controlled world. He liked the challenge, the fire he saw hidden beneath her cold exterior. Every time he teased her, every time he got close, he saw more of her untapped side-the part of her that was fierce and real. But what Nathan didn't know was that every time he talked to her, he was making her life harder. Her carefully constructed world was unraveling, and at home, she paid the price for letting anyone in. The more Nathan pushed, the more Sophia distanced herself, and Nathan couldn't figure out why. The more he wanted to break through her walls, the more he found himself tangled in the mystery of why she always kept him at arm's length.

A story in which a wealthy and popular girl enrolled in college with an unknown gift meets a mysterious and beautiful man in a ball, accompanied by his world of magic and promises. ~ I gulped, feeling my skin getting hot all of a sudden. Why was I so hot ? "You're playing a dangerous game, Lovely," the magnificent young man whispered as he took a few steps towards me. "A-August..." I whispered with difficulty, backing up against the wall. My throat was so dry. I had never been as thirsty as I was right now. He stopped right in front of me and I stared at his tanned collarbone, his smooth skin. He was wearing two silver chains. My favorite. "Look at me, Lovely." I did as I was told and my eyes bumped against his. Fuck. Fire. His eyes were consumed with fire. The stunning shade of blue was now mixed with a consuming but warm tone of orange. He then raised his left hand and cupped my chin with two of his long fingers, his soft lips slightly grazing mine, his breathing warm and enticing. "Because you have two choices," he whispered against my lips. "Either I'll make love to your wonderful and exquisite body, either I'll fuck the shit out of you." ~ Copyright @Lovebluehug All Rights Reserved Plagiarism forbidden All content @Malolukand ~ THIS STORY CONTAINS MATURE & TRIGGERING CONTENT/GRAPHIC SEXUAL CONTENT ⚠️ Please do NOT get fooled by the cover. ~ Will be updated twice a week! ❤️ ~

Fool Me Twice, Shame On Me ✓ od LonimiMeseko
Části: 41 Dokončeno
"So this was all just a game to you . . .this whole time, you pretended to like me in order to humiliate me in front of the entire school?" An air of melancholia surrounded me, eyes watery like never before. "Were your feelings for me ever real?" There wasn't even a trace of an apologetic expression on his features as he tucked his hands in his pockets, before he gave a nonchalant shrug. The sudden urge for revenge became a prominent priority. He regarded me passively. "It's not my fault that you fell for me in the first place." he justified as he advanced my way, closing the gap between us. Unstably, I strode backwards on the concrete. ". . .stay back." I whimpered. "You're nothing but cold hearted." ·•● Two years ago, Emery Roy was tragically exposed to what some could call an intense betrayal all thanks to the originator - Dean Darnell. Everything went downward spiral after they started dating. What appeared to be a match-made in heaven, turned from blissful to disastrous the moment Dean humiliated Emery in front of the entire school, leaving her completely heartbroken. So to avoid him at all cost, she did what any person would do: transfer school. Fast forward two years later. What happens when she's returning back to Roosevelt High, for the first time during senior year? She only has a few tasks: avoid Dean and face her obstacles. The only question is will she succeed or will she get fooled again?
