Ares moves closer, his gaze unwavering. I have to hide my fear, to find a way out. I can't let him get too close. My freedom, my future depends on outsmarting the person determined to bring me down. But yet I stand my ground and take a step closer, lowering my voice to a whisper. "Oh, Agent, the game has just begun. And I plan on winning."
I straighten my posture, chin held high, and match his intense gaze with an unwavering stare. We may be standing inches apart, but there's an unspoken battle going on. Staring right into his honey-colored eyes I feel my heart racing.
With a slight smirk, I break the spell of silence. "Getting a little too close for comfort. Don't forget, I'm not one to be easily swayed by your charm."
His gaze flickers with a mix of humor and a glimmer of something else. "We'll see about that, Marquesa." he retorts, his voice laced with an undeniable challenge. I squint my eyes a small giggle escaping.

Phoenix
My entire body felt on fire under his intense gaze. I tried my best to avoid eye contact as he towered over me, but once my eyes met his, the usual amber color of his orbs went darker and darker until they were now of a fervent brown shade and his pupils dilated drastically. The sight shocked me, causing goosebumps to rise all across my arms as electricity shot up my spine and my stomach erupted not in butterflies, but rather, I'd say in pterodactyls. It was both a terrifying and mesmeric sight... ___________________________________________ After being dared to kiss the first person to enter the dark room, 19 year old Essence later finds out that the person she kissed, 21 year old Phoenix, is her hand to hand combat trainer in her new assassin's school.

Stolen Love (A Cartel Romance)
"What is your name?" I asked, staring into her doe-like eyes. Almost immediately her face twisted in horror. Her eyes switched back and forth frantically like an exit would suddenly appear out of thin air. The sides of her lips turned downward like it was taking everything in her not to burst into a sob. Sure, she was scared--that much was expected-- but I could see the anger. I could see she was furious with me. Interesting. I thought to myself. As much as I wanted to explore how far I could push her until she retaliated; time was of the essence right now. I was staring at an unrecognizable girl. A mistake like this will get a lot of people killed. "I asked you a fucking question, didn't I? I don't like repeating myself." I growled as I grabbed her small face in my hand, making her eye shut in pain. "Harley. Harley Anderson," she spat softly like an angered kitten. Harley. I let her name roll over my tongue for a while. Every second that passed made my vision go black with anger. I looked away from her face before releasing the hold I had on her. I felt my jaw clench in anger and my fist flex in readiness as I stared off in the distance, trying to control my anger from making me lash out. However, I couldn't control myself. She is the wrong girl. We have the wrong girl. ------------ Harley Anderson was an average girl with an almost too simple life before being taken by the biggest cartel in New Mexico right in front of her best friend, Avery.

What happens when Avery is the center of the operation, but it all goes wrong, and now Harley finds herself in a situation she never dreamed of? What happens when Harley is taken and forced to work under the boss? Will Harley be able to survive working under this ruthless man?

He's only taking a few law classes for fun before he goes to the police academy. What will happen when they try to solve a mystery together? Will they help or hurt each other? Or along the way, will they somehow fall in love without trying to? ~ I say, "I'm sorry..." as my breathing is uneasy. "Don't be," he bends down to help pick up the mixture of books and papers and coffee I just spilt everywhere. "Are you okay? You seem disturbed." He lays his hand on mine and 8 can't help but look up, "Umm, to be honest, no, but that's not any of your business. Sorry again." I break the eye contact. "It can be if someone is trying to hurt you." He stops me again. "H- How did you..." I stop and am now looking him dead in the eye. "This is gonna sound creepy, but I've been watching you." He looks panicked, "Not in a creepy way though!" "What?" I keep eye contact. "I've just been observing you. That sounds awful." He looks and sounds even more panicked than before, "I mean, I think you're beautiful and I just didn't know how to approach you. I tend to be socially awkward with girls I have an interest in and I didn't want to scare you off..." He trails off, "But when I see you around, my gaze gravitates towards you," he sighs, "I sound like a total creep. I'm sorry." He pauses, "I've noticed you've been looking over your shoulder a lot and are in a rush in the halls. Almost like you're running away from something..." His eyes meet mine and I can tell he's being genuine, "I can help you." he says sympathetically. I nod and whisper, "He's always knows where I am and always knows my next move."Abgeschlossene Geschichte
COLD(RUTHLESS PLAYER #1)
Nick stalks towards me like a predator who has cornered his prey. And right now I very much feel like one. I scrambled up on the bed, he followed. Prowling until he is plastered against me, with the headboard digging into my back. I was entirely at his mercy. There was no place for me to run. No place for me to hide, I'm trapped. He lifted his hand and slowly, leisurely stroked my face. From my brow to my chin, he rubbed my lips with his thumb,I trembled. "You're shaking Andrea, why's that?" I tried to speak but no words were able to come forth, it seems my ability to speak had abandoned me. "You have nothing to fear from me. I just want to know one thing, who sent you?" "No one, I swear ... I didn't.. I don't know what you are talking about Nick." He tsked, he didn't believe me. Of course he didn't. He's smarter than that. Nicklaus Montgomery didn't become one of the richest, most influential people in the world by being stupid. Even I could hear the lie in my voice, I'd always been a horrible liar. "You don't know how hard I'm trying to control myself right now. So do yourself a favor and answer my questions honestly. Maybe I could try not to call the police and have you arrested and we could find a way to work things out between us." His voice was calm,he was not shouting as I expected anyone in his position would be. He's not even visibly angry. That hard face with his dark cold eyes was blank, there's nothing on his face. I couldn't read him. And that more than anything made me tremble,I was scared, terrified even. Tears flowed down my face, his hand kept stroking me. My throat was so dry. I needed water to moisten my mouth. "Please Nick." I begged, not knowing what I was begging for. Was it mercy? Forgiveness? Or for him to let me go? Maybe it was all three, but I wasn't stupid to think he'd let me leave. Just like that. How did everything fall apart in a space of a few hours?

"Because I am the perfect housewife?" I asked arching an eyebrow. "No, because you are the perfect combination of smart, beautiful, and skillful." I blushed at that and I wanted to look away but one of his hands stopped me and turned my face towards him. "Get used to hearing compliments because you're going to hear them often in the future. Now, about my offer..." He gave me an expectant look. I thought for a while. I still wasn't sure it was a good idea but I liked working at the shop and still wanted to work there for a little while.

He was standing in front of the bleachers with Hendricks and a few other guys, talking to Genny. Jack was staring at me, as soon as I turned he flipped his head the other way. But it was too late. "Jack, right?" I said, smiling and getting his attention. "Yeah. You're Katiya, Kate." He gave me a dazzling smile. It made me smile back at him. "I mean, most people just pick one of the options, not both." He chuckled a little and took a step towards me. "Both is good. Who are you here to see?" He asked, looking around, and past me. "Nobody in particular." I seemed to say easily, even though I was in fact, here to watch Jason and my dad. "I mean, everyone. I know a lot of people. Small town." I tried to correct myself immediately, and I noticed Hannah holding back laughter as I stumbled on my words. "Gotcha." He said, still smiling wide and taking a glance back at the field. "Good to see you again, Katiya Kate." This time he said it as if it were one word. It made me smile on the inside. He turned and jogged back towards his team. I was such an idiot.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
