"Sir Vangeance, is it that you mean when you're not usually in this area is because you're not with the likes of us?" She asks, she has a hand on her hip almost as if challenging him.
William's eyes widened slightly. He's never been this speechless before. He's been willingly quiet on things, but never this. He doesn't know what she means, but suddenly it all makes sense.
"If my men have said anything to you, I will apologize for their misconduct. Miss Dubois, I do not wish to fall from your good grace."
Aveline shakes her head, some tendrils falling loose from her simple updo. "It's not what they said, it's about how they looked."
Against all odds, the beginning of a budding romance throws a noble captain and shopkeeper asunder.

Unwanted Wedlock
''Let me help you, ma'am,'' a man who was probably the flight attendant said. Damn. Ryerson Reeds even had handsome flight attendants. The man stooped a bit, leaning close to her and taking the seatbelt from her hands. He was holding eye contact and Lyla felt herself grow amused as she stared back at him. He was going to start buckling her up before someone cleared their throat loudly. They both looked up to meet Reeds' blue-green eyes. ''I think I can help my wife, thank you,'' he said. Lyla's eyebrows shot up. The dude barely talked to her and he was already getting possessive? How does that even add up? Reeds stopped taking the two parts of the seat belt in his hands, ''you couldn't do this without help?'' he muttered to her savagely. Lyla glared at him, before he could even get the belt close to her she took it from his hands and snapped it in the right place. She gave him a sickly sweet smile and Reeds simply scoffed and walked to his seat. The rest of the plane ride was quiet. One would think after that small exchange they would start having some kind of conversation. Wrong. ___________________ This isn't a cliche story where the girl falls for the guy by a simply little gaze. She's stubborn, she's maybe a little relatable, and she's assertive. But she didn't think she was for him. Lyla Vell; the name itself oozed the confidence which was her, and Ryersoon Reeds? Two words to describe him: Arrogant and plain painful. And when these two personalities are in an arranged marriage. Shit about to go down. ___ This is my first Wattpad story. Hope you'll like it! This entire story is NOT mature. Only the last few chapters are and you can still finish the plot without reading those few mature chapters. For those who are hesitant to read the story because it is tagged mature, I'm promising you only the last few chapters are mature, you can read chapters 1-19 without any disturbance of smut. That was for those who're hesitant. Love you. DON'T COPY MY WORK!Complete![✦︎ 𝐄𝐔𝐏𝐇𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐀 ✦︎ [Original VAMPIRE Novel]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/327434829-256-k302915.jpg)
✦︎ 𝐄𝐔𝐏𝐇𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐀 ✦︎ [Original VAMPIRE Novel]
Being abducted by two handsome strangers in the dead of night did not turn out quite like Kia had hoped. Narrowly escaping their nefarious schemes, she runs directly into the perhaps biggest danger of them all: the lair of a long-starved vampire. Once the enigmatic Seth has had a taste of Kia's blood, he has no intentions of letting her go - and once Kia has had a taste of his lips, she is not sure she even wants to. Too bad the vampire's sadistic brother has other plans for both of them. 𝐄𝐔𝐏𝐇𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐀 is a dark and alluring tale of yearning for the forbidden and dangerous, of secrets and betrayal, of love and survival in a society of monsters where someone's blood means either their damnation or salvation - and the feud between two brothers might destroy everything, least of all a fragile human heart. [Maturity Warning: Will contain mature themes such as graphic sex, swearing, violence, allusions to self-harm, and blood slavery. For readers aged 17+]

Across the Boundaries
"She was invisible. He was untouchable. But love doesn't follow rules." Ella Malik has always lived in the background - quiet, cautious, and nearly invisible. In a world of luxury cars, perfect reputations, and private parties, she knows the rules: stay out of sight, stay out of trouble, and never fall for someone out of reach. William Ashford breaks every rule. Cold. Brilliant. Untouchable. He's rich enough to have everything - and guarded enough to feel nothing. Until Ella. What starts as a reluctant academic partnership slowly turns into something neither of them can explain - or ignore. She challenges his silence. He softens her edges. And beneath casual moments and stolen glances, something raw and real begins to spark. It's not just comfort. Not just attraction. It's the kind of love that refuses to stay quiet - fierce, fragile, and all-consuming. He sees her when no one else does. She reaches places in him no one's ever touched. And even if they come from two different worlds, their hearts speak the same language.
The rightful Luna
* 'I-I am sorry your highness I touched ...!' She was trying to apologize, but she fell silent as she could not utter with her mouth that she accidentally touched his lips. 'But I am not sorry!' He said calmly looking straight at her. What was she supposed to say after hearing his words? 'I did not mean to touch your highness's ...' she said with great difficulty. 'That was not a touch.' He said not permitting her to brush it off as an accident, even though it clearly was. 'It was a kiss.' He said with a hoarse determined voice. She widened her eyes, as her face flushed even more than it did when she realized what she had done. He dared to say the word she avoided. 'That was not! I...' she tried to refute. 'What is a kiss Celia?' She could not answer. How could she say the definition of a kiss with her own mouth, it would only confirm his words. * 'It was an accident. I am truly sorry, I did not mean any discourtesy towards your highness. If I can make up for my error somehow?' She quickly said. She did not know of his personal life, as he had a tight security around him and nobody knew much of the king outside official visits and business. He must have felt insulted. 'Please don't call it an accident. For a first kiss of a person to be called an accident ...' He said again with a dejected tone, but did not continue. It was like he had already gotten his point across. 'Ahhh. I am so sorry! It really was an ...' She wanted to say accident but, because of his pleading she could not actually say it. To have committed the blame of taking the king's first kiss and then not acknowledging it, how would he think of her? At this point she did not even realize that their roles had reversed, or that it was her first kiss also. PS: If you like loyal mates... then please proceed further :DComplete
Vengeful Redemption
"Anything." He whispered in her ear sending a horrified shiver down her spine. Standing behind her petite figure he didn't even touch her but his breath was enough to scare her as it was hitting her ear continuously. Never in million years she thought she will be afraid of this man. Not only afraid but terriorzoed by the way he was behaving. "Y-yes." She finally let out earning a dark chuckle from him as he stepped back from her. "Fine then. A girl like you can give me only one thing." Saying that he walked infront of her with dangerous steps. His eyes darken and a mixture of different emotions appeared in his eyes. "Strip." Her world stopped. SPIN OFF OF EX-WIFE CONTAINING HARRY KALE AND ROSE STONE STORY. The story is full of Lust. Hate.

My Vampire Mate
Book 1 of My Vampire Mate Series "Ladies and gentlemen, may I present, The Princesses!" The guy gestured at me and my best friend Casey. "Let it begin." The Queen said, what does she mean by that? Why is she warmly smiling at us? I looked at Casey and she's smiling at me too, she nodded at me to calm down. Why am I so confused? I looked at the guy in front of me, he held me and kissed my forehead, his image was kind of blurred. He tilted my head exposing my neck, he gently leans in and wait, why the hell is he biting me!! I gasped at the pain of his fangs gently deepens into my neck, I glanced at Casey and a guy is doing it to her also. Suddenly I felt a warm liquid flow from my neck and then through my whole body, that warm liquid began to burn. I screamed in pain and lost my balance, the guy in front of me caught me before I fell down, few men came to me then checked my pulse. But then suddenly it all turned black.
