It was a run down place. Small at its best. It smelt of beer and cigars. Many stools lined the bar, they were ripped and torn from how many times they've been sat on.
The lights were always dim and the air was cloudy with smoke.
But there it sat, the one chair to the far left of the bar, right below a race car painted ceiling tile. That's where he sat. That's where it all started and where it should have ended

For the Taking ✅
The girl with no wolf. An extra mouth to feed. A liability. A defenseless miscreation. Seraphina had heard it all. She had felt it all too. The bone aching bruises, the defenseless claw scratches just shy of her neck on the edges of her collarbone, she had seen it all too. It had been so long since it had started that she couldn't recall a time when the degradation was compliments and not insults. Now, it was all she ever expected. If she had known five years ago that not having a wolf would cause this much hate she would have begged her parents to move to another pack. It felt like an eternity since it all happened. Or rather what didn't happen. She still could not shift. She was defective. A mistake in the gene pool. But she didn't know she would end up like this. She couldn't have, just like she couldn't have expected to come face to face with the Alpha Slayer. A man casted in shadow. Not many had ever seen his face, but that didn't make him any less real. Alphas after all were dethroned from the likes of him. Word spreads quickly. So, when Seraphina ends up in his line of sight she has a lot more to figure out than just not having a wolf, because it very well might cost her, her life.

Drunken Mistakes (18+)[COMPLETED]
To say I was shocked would be an understatement when I saw the person in front of me. I shut my slacked jaw in time to prevent my drool from falling off. The last person I expected to see, the person I gave up tonight's party for, was standing in front of my door. "Won't you invite me in?" she said in a small voice. "Yea-uh no, you are not welcome here" I regained my senses and make to slam the door on her face because that's the right thing to do. Is it? She moved closer and before I could process what's happening, her lips were already on mine. Rational thoughts went out the window and I wasted no time in enclosing her slender waist in my arms. I pulled her inside and kicked the door shut then led her towards the couch. After we broke apart for the much needed air, hands still on her waist, I asked. "What are you doing here?" "Shut up and lie down", she said in a raspy voice, turning me on the more. Her eyes had darkened and without further protest, I laid on the couch and pulled her with me. *** Ginny McCarthy is a high school popular girl who is in love with the bad boy Jude.
