His Caged Rose
His Caged Rose Dark Romance • Mafia • Psychological Obsession Angel never knew freedom. All she remembers is waking up on a cold sidewalk with no past, no name on her lips, and no idea how she got there. But the moment she walked into that café, fate delivered her straight into the hands of the one man she was never meant to escape. Damarcus Carlisle - ruthless king of an underground empire, feared by nations, worshiped by his enemies... and obsessed with her. Angel thought he was a stranger. She thought meeting him was accidental. She thought she chose him. She was wrong about everything. Because Damarcus has been pulling the strings from the beginning. Because she was never lost - she was placed. Because he bought her long before she ever learned his name. Now trapped inside his world of power, control, and dangerous devotion, Angel must navigate a maze of secrets, forbidden desire, and a love twisted enough to destroy her. She was supposed to be his weakness. Instead... she becomes his obsession. A dark romance of possession, trauma-bonding, and survival - where escaping the man who owns you may be more deadly than staying.
Evolution
There are a lot of things you don't really think about until they happen to you. Take rape, for instance. I always thought, "That won't happen to me. I have a boyfriend. I trust him. He would never take advantage of me like that..." I couldn't have been more wrong. Love in this day and age is often confused for manipulation and abuse. The warning signs are here. The things we say will tell us everything that is wrong. You are worth more than what you think you are. It's not your fault. If they tell you otherwise, get out. Burn the bridge. Always remember someone is waiting for you to walk into their life. Someone needs you. Someone loves you. Getting away from all of the wrong people and finding the right ones could save you. I can promise you right now that it saved me. These are the journal entries and selected poems from my first experience of love that left a unpleasant taste in my mouth- quite literally. I am putting this out for the whole world to see because I hope everyone will learn from my experience. People can see. We have no excuses to continue living our lives in ignorance. ...WARNING...

X & Y ✓
Kith never thought that her senior year of high school would be spent in a frat house, especially the frat house of her ex-best friend's, douchey, irresponsible older brother, Cameron. She'd fantasized about going to college since middle school, but not like this, not this early. She'd never planned on doing homework in a lounge that reeked of testosterone and beer while her new roommate partied until the stars went to sleep. Kith had never intended to be the source of drama in two very different schools either. Her senior year was supposed to consist of: hanging out with friends, doing tedious assignments, having a snowball fight during Winter Break, tanning during Spring Break, and rounding off her high school career with a creatively themed Prom. But none of that mattered; her plans didn't mean anything anymore. The phrase 'supposed to' was now an afterthought. Because things had gotten a little screwed up on the way to graduation. Deals with Mature Themes such as mentions of rape. Warning will be given beforehand.Complete
