"hmm, what do you mean by '20 large'?" i questioned innocently "I'll give you 20,000 dollars if you search him up and find his location." Oh damn that's a pretty good but if he's really desperate then maybe i'll be able to up that price a little. "30 and we got a deal." "No, 19." "I'm not the one who needs help here." i sang "40."

Behind Closed Doors
I never thought my life would be like this; trapped in a dark room and scared for my life. A blindfold was wrapped around my head, covering my eyes, making me completely blind and on high alert. My breathing was ragged and I could smell the mold that was most likely covering most of the room. My hands were tied behind my back, my feet tied together and I was sitting on the floor, propped up against a wall. I heard a slight shuffling across the room that was coming closer to me. I tried my hardest to keep my breathing under control to seem confident and fearless, but in reality, I was shitting my pants and squealing like a scared little girl on the inside. To say I was terrified was a drastic understatement. I was petrified, shaking with fear, but they were not going to know that. "Who are you?!" I demanded. If I was going to die, it would be with the name of my kidnapper. A voice boomed closely to me, "Well, if I told you that, this wouldn't be any fun." **************** Skylar James, a 24 year old girl, is kidnapped by a very well known gang who has a vendetta against her family. In an attempt to find light in her situation, she makes friends with one of the members. Logan Grant was forced into the gang at the young age of 16. He was abused until he became emotionless and ruthless, so that one day, he could rule the gang. Everything was going smoothly until Skylar is brought in. With a blindfold wrapped around her head, he instantly feels bad for her, though he cannot show it. Afraid of getting caught, he shows no emotion while others are around. Though, behind closed doors is a whole other story.Complete

This is just for me to get the short ideas out of my head when I have motivation. lol. Idk if anyone's gonna read these but here they are. Also I don't know when I'm gonna update this, it's just kind of when I want to. Each chapter is a different story and I'll post these between posting chapters of my main stories. And a TW for anyone who is sensitive to violence or anything scary. Not all of the stories are like this, but a lot of them are probably gonna be pretty messed up. (lol) A lot of these stories is just to get ideas out of my head and it will probably never be completed. Each story is different and there is no real pattern or anything, its just all random. Enjoy, 😃👍Complete

DIFFERENT SHADES OF HIM (BOOK-ONE)
"And what you tried today," I winced in pain as he held my nape from behind before turning me around. I peered up at him in fear while he stared down at me with his intimidating eyes. His eyes were thundering. Leaning down further, he made my pulse rise. Being so close to him- a man, no less, I could see the clear spec of blackness inside his dark eyes. They were so raw and so dark and so piercing. "I would suggest you not try it again," he added, his bottomless brooding eyes burned into mine, "because no matter how hard you are going to try, you are never going to get out of here without my permission. Away from my sight," he vowed in a menacing tone that had no expression at all. "Don't get your hopes high." Tears split down my eyes while he studied my face. "You like escaping. Don't you?" He explained to me in a condescending tone. "Let's see how you are going to try now with my eyes on you- all the time." "You can try all you want, but you can never break my spirits!" I looked at him, directly in his eyes without blinking. His eyes were still focussed on my face as he slowly stepped around me. "Do you mean it?" His voice was strangely soft, "Maybe I cannot. But.. " Adding to his intimidating aura. Shaur. "No.. " I whispered. "I can break him." His gaze met mine in an instant. "You seem to have forgotten your own mental capacity of understanding certain situations. Let me refresh it for you." His eyes seemed to burn holes at me. "I'd rather not get blood on your dress."

Mad About You
"But what do you believe?" "I don't know. I don't even know if any of this is even real." I placed my hands over my face in frustration. Was I losing it? Suddenly his hands touched mines and pulled it away from my face. "Throw reason out and just listen to this." He said pointing down to my chest. He put his hand to my cheek, and I closed my eyes feeling the electric shock again pulsating from his hand to my cheek. I opened my eyes, and I knew without a doubt that he had no evil bone in his body. But then that meant that he had to be innocent and that the reports were wrong. "Okay so what do you suggest we do in figuring out how you and your girlfriend got killed if you didn't do it?" "I have a theory..." Before I could even blink, his lips were on mine and I could feel my body going into a frenzy. I felt like I was spinning around and around in a vortex. And then everything turned dark with only the sound of a guitar riff. *************************************** 17-year-old Anya Little must form a somewhat symbiotic relationship with a ghost that haunts the house she currently lives in to find out what happened 30 years ago the night he and his girlfriend, Annie, who turns out to be her doppelganger, died.
