My heart pounds into my ears. My shoulder screams in pain, with each slamming foot step. My lungs burn for air, but I know I can't stop. I can hear Skyler's ragged breaths beside me, as we run through the ally. Glancing to my right I see, Jake right beside me with his pistol in hand. Glancing down I see my own pistol in my hands, and my black boots shinning in the setting sun. Glancing back up, I bring the pistol closer to my chest in a effort to stop the pain in my shoulder. The gun bangs against the metal in my shoulder, making the pain explode more. The sniper bangs against my back, as I refocus back on what's in front of me.

I apply pressure to the bullet hole. The pain nearly causes me to grow numb. Darren scoops me up into his arms as he tries to avoid sudden danger. His cautious movements are for my benefit. I gasp at the sudden pain. My heart pumps faster. Adrenaline kicking in. "Hold on, Autumn." I look up at his face. I never would've thought I'd actually care for him. Darren and I only teamed up because we were running from the same person. My father. When things quiet down around us, he lays me down on the ground. "Autumn, look at me. Please." The anguish is clear in his voice. I'm sure he feels the same way about me. The surprise of two strangers caring for one another. I look up at him with hooded eyes. He smiles weakly. "Hi." "Hey." I croak. He rips the bottom of my shirt and uses it to help apply pressure. It's soaked instantly. "I can't believe that son of a bitch--" He looks at me. "I can't believe he shot you." "He didn't shoot me." I try to sit up, flinching at the pull of my side. "The guard did. He didn't know who I was." Darren clenches his jaw. "You're losing a lot of blood." I force a laugh. "I guess it's a good thing that I'm a fighter." His eyebrows draw closer together. I wanted to say something to easy his concern, but words lodge in my throat, causing me to sputter. It feels like I'm choking. Desperately trying to catch my breath. "Autumn? Autumn!" I try to say his name among my coughing fits, but blackness grabs me with its cold merciless hands before I can get a word out... That moment when you have to learn to accept yourself, but you don't even know who you are. Your reality is shattered. And everything you thought was real, becomes the opposite. (Inspired by a dream)

Lauren Jules, her twin sister Miranda, and their best friend Jake all grew up together in their own little world. Just three kids having the time of their lives. And then came the summer that changed everything. It was the summer Lauren fell in love with her best friend. It was the summer her family broke apart and she grew up. It was the summer Jake left. Now five years later, Jake is moving back and Lauren is determined to keep her guard up against the boy who stole her heart years ago. But Lauren's not the only one with something to hide, Jake seems to be fighting some demons of his own. His past has changed him from the happy-go-lucky kid he was, to a reckless guy with a smirk for a smile. And he's driving Lauren insane. ****** Excerpt from That Summer "Well I'm surprised," he drawled huskily, playing with a strand of my hair. "You acted like a natural last night." Oh. My. God. What did that even mean? He chuckled at my deer-in-headlights expression. There was no way I would not remember losing my virginity to Jake. Hell, I'd memorize every second of it. "What do you mean?" I asked slowly, my stomach doing somersaults. Please tell me I'm jumping to the wrong conclusion. Pretty please. "Well," he started, a gleam in his eyes. "First, you grabbed the blanket and ripped it right off of me." I blinked at him, a horrified expression on my face. I slapped his hand away from my hair and turned around. Yup, there it was. Lying on the floor, along with my dignity. He continued solemnly. "And then, you climbed up on top of me." Could you die from your face overheating? I waited for my embarrassment to be complete as he tapped his chin, thoughtfully. "Yeah, that's about it." That's it? THAT'S IT? So I hadn't completely thrown myself at him. Just a tad. And the prize for the unluckiest luckiest horndog of the year goes to Lauren Can't Keep Her Hands To Herself Jules. I grabbed the pillow and smacked him over the head with it. Hard.

[COMPLETED] "Shoot," Joey mumbles, letting out a string of profanities under his breath. We turn around to find a group of men, all with guns, standing where we just came from, and they look pissed... probably because they were forced to run through this tunnel after us. "Thought you could get away, didn't you?" The man who I saw before asks. His husky voice booms in the hollow tunnel, reverberating off of the dirt walls. His voice sounds familiar, and a realization strikes me. It sounds like the man from my dream. I remember him holding a gun and wearing a blue suit, smiling evilly at me. "Leave us alone," Joey says, sounding dangerous and snapping me out of my thoughts. The levity of the situation hits-we need to get out of here. I look around for a route of escape and thankfully I see a light, literally, at the end of the second tunnel. I let out a small, almost inaudible, gasp and nudge Joey. He looks at me and I subtly gesture with my head to the second tunnel. He glances at it and immediately we are on the same page. His jaw sets and he looks at the group. The man speaks up again, chuckling darkly-a sound I will never forget and will be permanently etched into my brain, "You can thank your father for starting this mess." -------------------------- Liza was a normal teenaged girl, living the average life that an eighteen year old girl should be living. She had good friends, good grades, a happy family, a loving boyfriend, and an overall content life, seemingly having everything a person could ask for. However, when she somehow gets thrown into the mix and is in the crossfires of a brutal mafia war that she has no business being a part of, things spiral out of control and she has to do whatever it takes to regain her freedom. In this hectic adventure of gun fights, torture, bank robbing and intimidating mafia men, Liza has to face it all, putting her average life on the line in order to defeat the bad guys and go back to her normal way of living.

STORY REDONE- **Prologue** "Callie, no, don't!" His voice cracks with desperation as bullets scream past me, the room erupting in chaos. I catch sight of a masked figure darting toward a narrow exit, and without a second thought, I sprint after him, pushing through the acrid haze of gunpowder. The hallway stretches before me like a black void, illuminated only by sporadic flickers of malfunctioning lights. Each step I take echoes ominously, my senses on high alert. The heavy thud of my footsteps seems unnaturally loud in the oppressive silence that surrounds me. As I advance, a cold chill grips my spine, and an unsettling premonition takes hold. My instincts scream at me to stop, but the figure is just ahead, a tantalizing promise of answers within reach. I turn a corner, and everything changes in an instant. Without warning, a searing pain explodes at the base of my skull. I stagger, my vision blurring, as my legs buckle. The hallway spins, a whirl of darkness closing in around me. And then, **Darkness.** In the void, I drift, unmoored and disoriented. The silence is deafening, punctuated only by the echoes of my racing thoughts. The terror of what's to come grips me tighter than any physical pain. Each breath is labored, each heartbeat a reminder of the precarious edge I'm teetering on. A sliver of light cuts through the black, and I catch a glimpse of shadows moving just beyond my reach. The realization crashes over me: this isn't just an ambush-it's a trap, meticulously crafted and more dangerous than I ever imagined. With every moment that slips away, the stakes climb higher, and the true nature of the threat remains just out of sight, shrouded in the depths of an intricate conspiracy. The game has changed, and I'm left to navigate a labyrinth of deception and peril. What started as a chase now threatens to unravel everything I hold dear. And as the darkness closes in, one thing becomes chillingly clear: the real battle has only just begun.

"Here," he threw the gun at me, which I had to catch with my two hands. "Kill him." The moment the words were out of his mouth, I dropped the gun in shock and took back steps. "I will let you go if you kill him," he was pointing towards John. "No," I whispered and again took a back step. "No?" The devil asked with disappointment, "Tsk-tsk, and here I thought you wanted to leave." "I can't," I stuttered. "Why?" "It's a sin," I whispered. A gasp escaped my throat when he stood so close to me that I could smell him and feel his hot breath on my face. Reading my intent to pull away, he wound his free arm around my waist and drew me near. "You said you want to go home, right?" a shudder passed through me when he murmured. "Killing is....a..sin," I pushed at his chest with all my might. I gasped when he turned me around abruptly, facing John. My heart palpitated when I felt his presence behind me, crossing all bounds of personal space. "What will happen if you sin?" My chain of thoughts broke when I heard him ask, leaning close to my ear. A ripple of shock passed through me, stunning me in the spot as soon as his callous palm ran over my stomach, pulling me deeper into his chest. "Please," I begged. "I will tell you what will happen if you sin," he leaned closer. "No, no, no," John thrashed in his place. A whimper left me when his hot breath hit my ear, "you burn in hell." Lost in my dread of his proximity or his touch, I failed to notice when he placed the gun in my hand, locked my fingers around it with his own, and raised it towards John. "And this is hell." Before I could stop him or pull my hand away, he pulled the trigger, followed by the gunshot. I clutch my eyes shut with a scream locked in my mouth. I was trying to save my father then; how did I end up becoming a sinner? I killed a man! "Boss." "She is mine." I didn't know who was talking to whom, but at that moment, I just wanted this all to be a dream.
Broken Connection✔️ by Simplewriter_31
44 parts Complete Mature
(completed) When Evelyn Cruz, the youngest of the Cruz siblings, comes full circle back to an old family friend, she instantly is flooded with old memories. The Valor's have come back with business. That's all they truly cared for. The eldest son of the Valor's, Grayson, had made a promise to the Cruz siblings to never leave. That promise was broken 5 years ago. Though, the one most affected was Evelyn. He had solely set the promise from her words. He promised to not leave and cause her to become the taker of the family business she never wanted. Will she be able to forgive him? Or will they both have to live with a lost connection beyond repair? ~~~~~~~~~ I'm trying my best to not listen to his voice booming behind me. Following me. "Evelyn, please!" Grayson's footsteps are getting closer to my trail and I can't help but speed up. But no matter how hard I tried to get away from him, he caught up to me. "Evelyn-" Grayson's arm wraps around my arm and I'm tugged back, flipping around to face him. "What the fuck do you want Grayson?" My harsh voice echos in the empty, open hallway. "God, I dont know what you want me to do. I have tried everything to get you to forgive me." He takes a sharp breath when I pull a knife out of my pocket and hold it to his stomach. "You really want to know why I haven't forgiven you?" He stares down at me blankly and gives a short nod. "Because you took the one thing I hoped you would care for." I press the knife ever so slightly more into his skin, causing only a small reaction from Grayson. His jaw clenches before he speaks. "And that is?" I shake my head at how stupid he is. You would think the taker of the Valor family business would be smarter. But no. I use my free arm to grab his tie and tug on it, leaning him down. He was so close to me. I could feel his warm breath against my lips. We were only inches away. "My trust Grayson."
