"There's a place just outside of the border where no one would dare venture. It's been locked up for decades, maybe even centuries. No one knew for how long because those who did were silenced. It wasn't talked about in school or in history books. What's worse is that the government is keeping patrol of the place 24/7. Once you step even an inch closer, you'd be shot dead on the spot. But not before you hear a faint cry coming from inside the city walls, calling for help. What are they hiding? What do they know?"

A boy discovers this written in an old journal he found at the local library. Curious, he decides to unravel the truth behind what the journal calls 'The Screaming City'.

"WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT INSIDE YOUR HEAD?" He trapped my trembling body between his arms and slammed his fist into the wall. I flinch at the sound as I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR CRYING. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NEVER LEAVING. THIS IS YOUR LIFE NOW, WITH ME" He spits, anger consuming his voice as I push myself further against the wall. Shutting my eyes closed and turning my face to the side as I do. Moments later, I feel his rough hand on my waist and his finger grazing my cheek. "Look at me, love." His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn. You need to learn that you won't be going anywhere. You're mine." With that being said, his other hand slides down to my waist "Your entire body, your mind, your soul. All mine." All I could do was tremble at his touch. How can someone so beautiful be so heartless? ~~~~~~~~~~ All a 19 year old Aurora Shaw wanted to do was work to make a living and volunteer at the orphanage. Unfortunately for her, ruthless and cunning 26 year old Mafia leader and billionaire Tristan Black had other plans for her. He's been waiting for the perfect moment to kidnap her and finally make her his queen after 2 years of watching and stalking her every move. He'd kill anyone who gets in the way of getting what he wants. What will happen when he ruins everything she wanted and forces her to marry him? Will she escape and resist him? Or will she submit and accept her fate?

Blaze White is the New Girl at the Prep school in her mothers old home town. But her only goal for senior year is to keep a low profile, no friends, no parties and NO boys. Axel may be adored and worshipped by his peer-but he hates people, except 5. So when a beautiful but closed off girl suddenly enters his group. He is not welcoming of the mysterious beauty despite the pull they both feel. •••• WARNING: This was written many moons ago. I have decided to put it back up because of a large request from readers. However, I was a kid when I wrote this so take it with a grain of salt. *** Like a deer in head lights, I freeze and watch as the car comes towards me expecting to get hit. But to my surprise, the car swerves to the side slightly next to me and comes to a stop. I take a deep breath I didn't know I was holding at the driver's side door swings open and a very pissed off Axel steps out. "Thank god," I mumble and place my hands on my knees to catch my breath. "Blaze?" He says and I hate it. I hate how he says my name as if it's his. Like he knows it's the only thing I want to hear, him calling out to me, looking at me, focused to me. It's the first time in my life I wanted someone's attention so badly I didn't care how I got it. And that was too dangerous for me to hold onto. "Are you insane or some shit? I could have killed you!" He says and starts to walk towards me. I take a big breath and step back away from him, "s-stop! Axel," I stutter still panting. It's then he notices the blood on my hands and shirt. "Is that blood?" He asks staring at my shirt and I take another step back. "Stop, stay b-back," I try to say confidently but I can't even breath right. Realizing he won't listen I start to turn around planning to make a break for it. "Don't run from me Blaze it won't go well," he growls reading my thoughts causing me to freeze in my spot. "Do not ever think you can get away from me."

A static noise echoes in my ear, then an indistinct silence announces itself. "...Holt! Can you hear me? Answer me! Mr. Holt!" I want to say something, but all that escapes my lips is a groan. I feel like throwing up right here and now. "Mr. Holt, answer me!" "What..." I gasp and blink. "There he is, sir. He's answering," it crackles in my ear and I raise my hand to my temple with a groan. ------------------------------------------ America in the year 2095: A convicted murderer is offered freedom. In return, however, he must carry out a reconnaissance mission that turns out to be a true horror. He is catapulted through a portal into another world and discovers firstly that he has undergone a devastating change and secondly that America in this other world is more like a dictatorship. With a ruler who thinks rather inferiorly of his and other cases and abuses them as test objects. ------------------------------------------- Trigger warning: chapters may contain intense violence, blood and profanity (...) ------------------------------------------ The book contains two parts. The first has already been completed, the second is currently still in progress. ------------------------------------------ Cover and title as well as the content itself are first drafts. I am therefore open to suggestions, comments and criticism and hope to be able to improve this book.
