Not now, not EVER!" I yelled. "Calm down, mom. I'm okay. He didn't rape me. The stupid son of bitch couldn't even figure out my zipper" she joked as she wiped away her tears. "Why was he here? Was he looking for your uncle? Did he say ANYTHING?" I asked. "He said he was here to collect a debt Uncle Eddie owed, but I know that he's been working every night to pay them back. I'm so confused.

The Perfect Hold by selenefedorov

NSFW Celeste Evans has finally found the life she's always dreamed of and freedom from the shadows of her past. And she owes it all to Silas Grant. Silas is everything she thought she'd never have: loving, patient, and devoted, the kind of man who would move mountains to see her happy. From the moment he helped her escape her old life, he has been her sanctuary, her protector, the man who has anticipated her every need. Now, as they prepare to leave their London flat for a quiet village in the English countryside, Silas insists on handling every detail of the move, leaving Celeste free from worry. He wants her to rest, to heal, to be happy. But as boxes stack in the empty corners of their once-vibrant home, an inexplicable feeling begins to unsettle Celeste. It's something faint, just at the edge of her awareness-a quiet question that no amount of reassurance seems to erase. Her friends express their concerns in subtle ways, and Celeste dismisses them. After all, Silas is perfect. His affection and care have given her everything she never thought possible. Yet as she stands in the near-empty rooms of their apartment, she wonders if the life they share has been constructed for her rather than by her. Small moments- his way of always knowing where she is, what she's thinking-start to shift her perspective, making her question her place in the life he's so meticulously crafted. In Silas's love, Celeste once found peace. But now, as they prepare to leave the city behind, she begins to wonder if his devotion may come at a price she's only just beginning to understand. For the first time, Celeste must decide if she can trust the man who gave her everything or if he's built a world where she might lose herself completely.

Baby boy ✔️ by alibramoon

"I'm like old enough to be your mum." I say to Jakob not even bothering to hide away how amusing I am finding the idea. "You're only ten months older than me." Jakob shoots back a hint of defence in his tone. Was he offended? "Still." I laugh out. "You could be my baby boy." I smirk sending Jakob a wink. - THIS IS NOT A SEX STORY!!!!! The characters are teenagers! (A/n so the main character starts off as a pretty bad person which is needed because this story is about PERSONALITY GROWTH so if you don't like reading that type of stuff then please don't read this book. It is only for the first 5 chapters and I'm not justifying her actions. She is a b***h) Highest ranking: #2 youngadult #2 teenromance #10 romance Started October 2018 Finished July 2019
