"Claire Anderson" I heard my name suddenly
"y-y-yes" I stuttered as anxiety crashed over me
"Come in" the voice said then Paula gave me an assuring smile
My blood seized...I felt lump in my throat...it's him!!!
The man I've waited for... for the past 8 years of my life, the man who dropped me in the water and left me there is here right in my front ...God let this be a dream please...as I try to fight back my tears
"R-Ryder" my breath choked
"C-Claire" he said quietly trying to move closer to me
"don't" I stepped back as I summoned the last strength left in me and ran out of his office 'oh God why me?' as memories came back rushing in...the pain is still so fresh hitting me so hard in the heart, I couldn't fight the tears anymore I just left it to flow.
so are you ready?😊...

Love Misunderstood
I only ever met one man I'd call truly noble. He was a man who was misunderstood and worthy of the world, yet everyone saw him differently. That was until I saw his true colours. The more I caught his eye the more he noticed me. We would pass each other, I would always stare a little longer at his back, wondering his story. People used to move out of the hallways if they saw him approaching whereas people would come and talk to me. He kept to himself, I was never alone, he had no friends, I was friends with everyone, I never saw him talk to anyone I spoke to many. we were polar opposites. At least that's what I thought until that day in the library, that is where I will start this story. Everyone is different, I hate the word "different", I much prefer the word unique. Unique is the only way to describe him. This is not just a story about love, it is about helping two souls who act differently but are the same on the inside, it shows the messy parts that aren't shown in movies, the tragedy, and the comedy but most of all the sizzling romance between two broken people who became one. Who is this story about? Caden James. But this is not just his story, It is ours.Complete
His Unwanted Desire
I pushed him with as much force as I could which made him stumble slightly but he succeeded in maintaining his balance and escaped from falling. That was when I got a chance to see his face. Oh, my gosh!! He is so handsome...wait...I have seen him somewhere...somewhere...what the...!! He...he is Mr. Shane Adams, the CEO of Adams' Empire. But why the heck did he kiss me? Did he misunderstand me for someone? "How dare you push me? Do you even know who I am?" He asked, angrily. "Don't give me that shit of 'Do you know who I am?' I know who you are, but how dare you kiss me without my permission?" I spat back. My statement fueled his anger and now he was extremely furious. He had his hand balled into a fist. He slowly came closer to me and stopped just inches from me. "You lousy mouse. You are nothing but a slut. Do you hear me? You.are.a.slut!" he whispered into my ear from my back holding both of my hands tightly. I could no longer take it as I was beyond furious at this point. I punched him hard on his handsome face and the side of his lips started bleeding. Serves him better! And this is how they met; Lara and Shane. Neither are they poles apart nor do they lie on the same side of the coin. But there's something that attracts them to each other again and again. Get indulged in the romantic love-story of Shane and Lara. PS: You might find this story a bit of a cliche.Complete
