‼️Will be edited (this version is an old one) ‼️ "Who said I like you? I hate you." Ares brought my face closer. For a moment I looked at his shapely lips. Of course, he noticed that. "Is that so?" I swallowed. I quickly put my face backward. "Yes. Don't imagine anything." "A few days ago, you stretch your neck for me, so I could kiss you more, and now all of a sudden, don't you find me attractive?" I find him very attractive, but I can't say that because I can never admit it to myself, otherwise nothing happened between us I shook my head. "Use your words, love." He gently grabbed my chin and turned me to him. "No, I don't." I tried to say. --------- They hate each other more than anything, but why can't they stop thinking about each other?

Lilah
She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)Complete

My Sweet Superchef
There are relationships with no special labels though you share a special bond. When you two are together, there is magic and there is connection. Everything about you two are in sync. You share the same interests. Sometimes you think alike. You enjoy doing most things together. You laugh, smile, giggle, frown, pout and raise eyebrows on funny and crazy stuff. You do crazy things together and are crazy about each other. This is the kind of relationship where Lucien and I are in. In other words, we do stuff what boyfriends/girlfriends do. We go out, date, drink, wine and dine, chill, hang out, etc. Call it friends with benefits? Hmm.. maybe not. It's more than that. He loves me. I love him. No doubt about that. It is unspoken but like what the expression says, "Actions speak louder than words." Is it complicated? Hell yeah but ironically, it makes it less complicated. No fights. No headaches. No stress. No LQs.Complete
