He stepped closer, and I retreated until my back pressed against a tree trunk. His eyes held mine, and for a moment, I glimpsed something darker beneath the warmth.
"Clara," Owen murmured, his lips brushing my ear. I closed my eyes. "Have I ever been mean to you? Hurt you...? No. Maverick is trying to get rid of me. He's jealous."
Snow fell softly, covering the ground like a white veil. And as Owen's lips brushed mine, I didn't move, I didn't fight, and I was transported back into that small dark room at the orphanage.
This is my job.
I let Owen press me into the tree and kiss me.

After Curfew
Willow's always been known as the good girl with the wealthy parents who could do no wrong. Little do they know that this seemingly perfect girl has some less than perfect secrets; and the fact that she's been sneaking out past curfew every night since the beginning of summer isn't the worst one. Distancing herself from the people at school has become lonely, but everything changes when a group of bad boys that she meets after curfew one night transfer to her school and begin to take an interest in her; one even more than the rest. But will they be able to protect her when events from her past re-surface and begin to get her into more trouble than she ever wanted? ********************** We were a circuit, electricity flowing through us at every connection, every light touch igniting a heat that was exhilarating but dangerous. Like we could catch fire and burn to the ground at any second. "Did you take your own advice? Did you ever forgive yourself?" I whispered, my words evaporating in the heat around us. He moved towards me, trapping me against the car door as his lips traced over my jaw, down to my neck. "This," he whispered, his thumb tracing the waistband of my jeans, making my breathing falter. "Allowing myself to feel this happiness, to feel you...this is me forgiving myself." He kissed me, calming the raging storm in me and igniting a new one. I wasn't sure which would cause more destruction, but I knew only one had pretty blue eyes and a effortless smile that could convince me it was all worth it. It probably was.Complete

In The Eyes Of The Alpha
In The Eyes Of Fate Series (Book One) "Don't even think about it." I stood frozen in place as he said those words from behind me, which sent shivers down my spine. The rain started running down my face as I started thinking of a way out of here. My body trembled in fear knowing that he could easily hurt me. I'm not strong against someone like him Thoughts raced through my mind as I tried to think of a way to get away from him. But there was nothing but endless trees around me. I blinked away the water running into my eyes due to the rain. My thoughts were disturbed when he suddenly spun me around to face him, his face just inches away from mine. "P-Please don't hurt m-me." I stuttered out. I tried to sound brave and not let my fear show, but my mouth betrayed me. His golden red eyes flickered with a hint of pain for a moment then back to a cold stare, "I'd never hurt you, never put you in harm's way and I'm never letting him take you from me, you're mine." He said in a deep low voice, almost a growl, and his eyes seemed to have gotten darker. 'What the hell is that supposed to mean?!' I tried taking a step back but his grip on my arm tightened. It hurt. "L-let me go, you, you're hurting me!" I looked up at him scared, his eyes were now completely dark, and the next thing I noticed were pointed teeth poking out from his lips. I screamed and pushed at him but he didn't budge. I then raised my knee and kneed him between the legs with all my force, and he dropped like a rock, holding his groin. Run. I took my chance. And ran. ~~~ Nora Brown, a normal adult, living a normal life. Moving away from home to start fresh and meet new people. Just going where life takes her.

Ripper - Hell Rider's MC #1 -
This story has plot holes and grammar mistakes, I get it. This book isn't edited at all and I plan to once the series is finished. If you don't want to read it than don't read it but don't comment and bash me for mistakes when I have warned readers many times that I don't edit. Thank you. ____ I shivered as I pulled my coat tighter around me. I had been walking for days, and sadly it was mid winter. The chill felt like it would never go away, and no matter how many shops I went into to warm up, I always had to trudge through the snow once more. I had no clue as to where I was going, but I was praying that I would find someone safe and warm before I was either found by the one person I was trying to escape, or before I froze to death on the side of the street. ~ Lilith, or Lilly, is running from her mother after she tried selling Lilly's body to some men. Her mother had been abusing her for years and once the night had fallen after being beaten severely, Lilith took action.

NOT A FUCKING AGEGAP STORY. IF YOU READ PAST THE FIRST CHAPTER YOU WILL FIND THAT OUT. THANK YOU. * I am horrible at descriptions so please do not judge the book based off of my descriptions. *Complete

Boys that get to your age would like to be able to be away from all of this." Father says. "You're sending me away." I say my voice breaking. "No." He replies. "You are!" I say. "It's only for a short while. I don't want you to be away from me." Father says. "I'm not fragile! I can be on my own do things in my own! You're sending me away because you don't want to look at me!" I yell. "Go pack your things if you're not going to have a civil conversation with me." Father says. I scoff and go back inside. I'm hurt and I let myself cry as I pack my belongings. I hear a light tap on my open door. "It's me." I turn and see Yan. "I'll be with you." Yan says. I let him tuck the last few things in my suitcase and latch it closed. "Come on." He says lightly. I follow him down the stairs and past my father. Yan stops me and whispers to me, "Say bye to your father, please." I turn and face my father. "Father." I say plainly. "Be safe." He says. I roll my eyes and follow Yan outside. ~~~~~~Complete
