City life in Metro Centrix is unforgiving in a number of ways, not excluding waking up early for work only to be there into the late hours, the long drawn out commutes, the poverty of the homeless and veterans -bless their souls-, or even the high end crimes happening around the clock disrupting everyday life. Yet no one seemed to care, content with simply looking the other way rather than attracting attention.

Those few who were loud and passionate about how much they cared for the issues, however, were mostly never heard from again.

For Emma, she tries to keep her travels through the city short, never wanting to sticking around longer than needed. Unfortunately, her boyfriend Aiden, wasn't often understanding of her dislike towards the city and kept her around for as long as he could when he made his way around town, no matter how much discomfort it brought her. He couldn't escape his love for his city life so she made do without too many complaints. But with her school life also being in shambles, Emma had come to loathe her life as a high schooler of Lone Oak Academy and a resident of Metro Centrix, Chicago.

She was at her wits end upon entering her senior year, until one day, a new student showed up to help her take back control with seemingly open arms. Though this student was much more... friendly and eccentric than Emma was anticipating, her help came with a price. But maybe city life isn't all that bad after all with this strange new girl around.

Unfortunately, that's not always the case behind the scenes.

***** Emma Pear knew she wasn't the most popular girl in high school. Her nose was usually buried in a textbook, and her grades were as spotless as her reputation for always following the rules. "Nerd" was a label she'd long since embraced. Her parents, determined to keep her on the straight and narrow, packed her schedule with violin lessons, shifts at the local animal shelter, and tutoring sessions for elementary school kids. Emma barely had time to breathe, let alone experience "normal" teenage rites of passage like parties, late-night hangouts, or even just goofing off with friends. So when the captain of the football team-the captain-unexpectedly asked her to the school dance, Emma saw a glimmer of a different life. She practically begged her parents, and to her shock, they actually said yes. She had no idea that one night, under the glittering lights of the gym, would rewrite her entire story. Blake Black was the kind of high school loner who radiated an almost magnetic quiet. Girls whispered about him in the halls, drawn to his mysterious aura and the fact that he rarely spoke to anyone. Most of his time was spent wrangling his hyper little brother, Alex. Their parents, a brain surgeon and a heart doctor, were perpetually busy, leaving little time for their growing boys. His parents made it clear attending the school dance wasn't optional. They just wanted him to "act like a normal high schooler" for a few hours. Blake's plan was simple: show his face, then ditch the minute he decently could. He brushed off a parade of hopeful girls, already counting down the minutes until he could escape. But then he saw what happened to Emma. And unlike everyone else, he couldn't just stand by and watch.

"Loving you is exhausting and hard. Give me a freaking break." he said. "Then why are you still here?", she whispered with a pale and trembling voice, holding back the tears that were willing to fall down her cheeks. Laura never wanted to fall in love with someone she couldn't touch - someone who only existed behind a screen, a voice borne by time zones and poor connections. But Evan made distance seem hazardous. He made every silence burn. "You could've stopped talking to me." she said to him once. "I tried," he said. "You just wouldn't leave my fucking head." Somewhere in between their late-night phone calls and the words they never spoke, something real started to take shape - delicate, wrong, and beautiful. But love such as theirs was going to shatter. It was constructed on waiting, on jealousy, on all the things they couldn't have. And maybe that's the cruelest kind of love - the kind that feels infinite, but ends the moment you wake up. Until Aiden walked in - the man who was real, present, and everything Evan couldn't be. Aman who had actually been beside her even when she broke his heart, even when she drifted away to chase someone who made her heart ache in ways she never imagined. "He doesn't deserve you. please wake up Lau." Aiden told her. "Then why does it still feel like he's the one?" she whispered. "You're crazy." Somewhere between what she wanted and what she needed, Laura lost control. Between time zones and heartbreak, between messages and memories, something between them had shattered. Because sometimes, love doesn't ask you to choose between two people - it asks you to choose which part of yourself you're willing to destroy.

Hey there folks, I'm Cody Phillips, welcome to New Orleans. N'awlins is known for many wonderful things, our coffee, music and the ability to throw a damn fine party. We're also known as the city most people believe may be one of the most haunted places in the world. Well, let me tell you this, we have more than our fair share. I know because I can see them. But, listen, don't spread that around. Yeah? It's been a closely guarded family secret my whole life. Not even my best friend knows this about me. See, I use my 'gift' in my work as a homicide detective with NOLA's finest boys in blue. Now, I understand why you might call it cheating, and that's fine. But I always catch the bad guy with the victim telling me everything I need to know and give the family involved closer. So it evens out as far as I can tell. Now just as my life is moving slower than a gator with a full belly, the worst happens. I get the call about a homicide that's hit too close to home. It leaves the girl of my dreams coming home to face tragedy. The moment I see her I find myself reminded of the one secret no one ever knew. Ever since I was eight years old I have felt many different things for Emma O'Neal, and those feelings haven't disappeared with time. Problem is now that she's come home; I find myself fighting not only an unknown assailant out for blood, my partner's misguided beliefs but my own need for the enticing beauty I'm duty sworn to protect. Damn, I just hope I'm able to fight the feelings I have for this woman, and stay focused on the case. Otherwise, I might end up losing something far more precious to me than the honor I've worked so hard for: Emma's life.

"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER!

-Nyssa- Alyx was not put in my path so I could fall in love with her. Ours was not meant to be a love story. When I met Alyx, I was a feisty 12 year old with big dreams and a bigger attitude. She was the moody, bi-racial 13 year old, who despised the very world she lived in. In highschool, I was a cliché. The beautiful, blonde cheerleader with the future prom king attached to my arm. My future was set in stone. But at some point, the quiet, introverted Alyx I knew, grew up. Now she's tall, dark, and dangerous, Alyx.

Especially when I needed someone to save me from myself. From the demons that had infected me with my own dark urges. Alyx's dark side lured out my own. It attracted me to her like the song of a siren. Or like a moth to a flame. And that...was a serious problem. I was not supposed to love her. It wasn't because she was the same gender as me. Or because I have a boyfriend. It wasn't because she didn't exactly fit into the "American Dream" life. Or that she brings out a wickedness in me that could tear down my entire future. Nope. It's a problem because she's my step-sister. And yet, I can't help but feel like every piece of her, belongs to me. This is a wlw, erotic, interracial, masc/fem stepsister smut/romance.

Please notify me if you find any errors that I missed. Each chapter will be posted each except on the weekends. If I miss a day, I will post it the next day.

A Home For You

26 capítulos Em andamento Maduro

A boy, a student, a baseball player, a provocateur, a shop-lifter, a kleptomaniac.. all words Matt would use to describe Aiden Harper. Due to unfortunate circumstances, Matthew Cooper, a junior football athlete and proficient troublemaker, is forced to open his home to Aiden Harper, somewhat of a popular kid from a much fancier school, but even so, he still comes with just as much trouble. Thanks to their fathers' arrangement, Matt must learn to share his space with another. But can he ever get used to the presence of someone so unusual like Aiden? What Matt doesn't realize yet is that Aiden Harper comes with his own story, hidden intentions, and a quiet thirst for revenge. • • • Matt's face was reddening every moment that passed. He clicked his tongue, "Had I known we'd be welcoming in a thief into our home in the first place, I would've beat the shit out of you in that damned waiting room." Aiden lifted his head, locking eyes with Matt's dark, unflinching stare. "I'm not a damn thief," he snapped, his tone biting. He shoved Matt back, his stare as cold as his. "Don't act like you're any better. We both ended up in that same place after all." ⚠️ This story may contain themes of: - Violence - Blood - Mental Disorders - Homophobia - Intimacy
