"Don't be afraid"
Calyx whispered to me. I looked at her and she grinned toothily. My lip quivered. "Its ok." She gripped me in a rough squeeze, her childish hands wrapped around my torso. The tall man said we were going to a revolutionary place, I wanted to time travel, just not yet. Calyx plunked down beside me. The man came back in and stood in front of the crate with the children cooped inside. "Roll Call!" He shouted, to let all the children know. He quickly listed some, but I was to terrified to catch all of them. " Flora Alder?" "Here!" Cried a wobbly voice. "Seneca Sparrow?" A brave boys voice sounded above the nervous chatter. "Here!" "Delphine Bay?" A girl in the crate with us sat up abruptly and shouted "Here!" "Iris Lark?" Silence. "IRIS LARK?" "Here." A stunned voice mumbled. "Calyx Hawthorne?" "HERE!" She shouted, a sudden burst of confidence. "Arrush Casi?" "Here" I mumbled. The man walked back to the front. After a long period of time, we stopped. "We're here!"

She shrugged, "by the looks of it, your going to be a father soon." Darkness exploded through the room. Cutting out my vision, it seeped through the windows, blocking out any visible light. Calloused hands pressed down against my shoulders, holding me in place. Soothing talons scraped down my mental barriers, trying to pry them open.

Talons scraped at my mental walls once more before he spoke down our bond, Is this true? I looked to my mate, "Yes." He receded a few steps, stumbling over his words, "how?" "Well, when a mummy and a daddy love each other very much-" "HOW?" He snapped, cutting me off. Sighing, I relaxed my wings, exhausted from today's events, and let them slide to the floor.

"Barron, can I ask you a question?" I said as I twiddled my fingers together nervously. He nodded his head giving me his full attention. "What are we doing?" I asked softly. Barron rested his elbow on the table and shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know, I guess we are hanging out." He answered with no emotion. "Hanging out?

ODYSSEY
Dystopian. Futuristic. The fight for survival. A story of four brothers. Excerpt: She was a harbinger of change. Her eyes were turned up to look at Calix, "People are stupid," She said to him, "Given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. They will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might not be true." Vesper shook her wrist against the metal pipes, rattling the steel handcuffs that kept her prisoner, "Let me go, and I won't kill you." Calix quirked an eyebrow and smiled down at her. {Please DO NOT copy or post this story anywhere or elsewhere in any capacity.

Mistress
" I am pregnant," I said timidly caressing my flat belly hoping that he will be happy hearing the news. After all, he is going to be a father. He said chewing the food," Abort it." He said it so usually like it's the obvious thing to say at this situation. My eyes get watered immediately. I said crying," It's my first baby. I want to give birth to this baby." "I have told my decision already. You can never have my baby," He said finishing his food. " Why can't I have it? please, let me have it, I replied tightening my hold on my belly. He said banging his palm on the table," You will not listen like that." Saying that he dragged me towards the staircase and said creepily almost pushing me on the stairs," Just one push and the result will be same. Mistresses are for pleasure not for bearing children.

Loving Mr. Cavalier
When Liliana signed up to become a private flight attendant, she believed she had a general idea of what the job entailed. Strictly professional. What she didn't expect was for the mysterious, strict, straightforward Mr. Cavalier to take an interest in her outspoken yet naïve nature. With a stubborn billionaire refusing to take 'No' for an answer, Liliana finds herself on a ride of a lifetime, filled with heated close encounters, daring conversations, not to mention a dash of drama. Will Liliana be able to withstand Mr. Cavalier's lusty and endless pursuit? Or will the outspoken hostess reject the hot billionaire once and for all? __________________________________ He didn't speak. He never spoke. I knew that he was able to speak, but whenever I was around it seemed that I was the only one speaking. He didn't seem to enjoy my presence, but then again that wouldn't be true given that he requested for me to host, on my day off. His eyes were not friendly, his jaw and lips that never smiled told me to always be on guard. I could always feel his eyes on me, and I know its him, or else my heart wouldn't be acting the way it was. ... And yet, here I am, patting down the wrinkles on my skirt, as his car approached the Jet. I was rather angry. It was my day off. I wasn't even on call. I told Jenna that I wouldn't come in today and that he'd have to find someone else. Apparently this man didn't take "No" for an answer. He had his personal body guard arrive at my door, and I wouldn't be too surprised as to how he got my address. The scary man was ready to drag me from my house, I was driven to his private Aircraft and now I had to play hostess. When he stepped out of the car, his eyes looked up to me. Had he smiled or even acknowledged my presence, maybe I would be free to assume that he was happy to see me.Complete
Runaways- Runaways 1
"Hey, who are you?" I could tell he wasn't trying to scare him off while still trying to establish the fact that we could hurt him if we wanted to. "I was gonna ask you the same question," he replied. "But since to beat me to it, I'm Eli. I'm just a seventeen-year-old kid out here alone. Y'all seem to be in the same situation." His southern accent was thick but definitely not South Carolinian. It sounded more like he was from Alabama or Mississippi. "True. For how long?" "Four weeks. I ran away because of...circumstances," he said, trailing off on the last word. "Prove to us you're not dangerous," Marcus threatened. "Prove to me you're not dangerous," Eli countered. "I don't even know your names." "Fine. I'm Marcus, that's Peyton, Luke, and Aaliyah," he answered, gesturing toward each of us as he spoke. I could tell he didn't trust the guy, but he seemed good enough. He hadn't said anything to make us distrust him, but he also hadn't said anything to make us trust him. "Look, dude, I'm not trying to hurt you. I'm looking for something a friend told me about a few weeks ago. She said there was a whole network of teens out here, but there's a camp somewhere in Florida that gives them a place to stay. Secret, of course, and run by teens, but anyway, it seems safer than being out here and living off the land." "Wait, you mean there are more of us?" I asked. ☁ Three teenagers find themselves rejected by their families after they're all unexpectedly outed on the same night. With the help of their friend, they head to the streets in search of freedom and acceptance. Along the way they meet another boy, and there's more to him then they could have ever guessed. Follow each of them as they discover who they are, who they love, and more of their country's secrets than they could ever dream of in a thrilling trilogy told from all five points of view.Complete
Salazar's Caged Love
She was just an ordinary girl from today's world- a routine life, a beating heart, a future she thought she controlled. Until the night he came for her. Salazar. An ancient vampire king born in a world far older, darker, and colder than time itself. A creature carved from shadows, bloodlust, and laws written long before humans learned to speak. He steps through her century like it's nothing- breaking rules, bending time, crossing worlds- just to steal one terrified girl from her ordinary life and drag her into his. She wakes up in a place where the sky roars in crimson colors, where magic runs beneath the earth, where creatures bow at his feet and tremble at his silence. She is his captive. His forbidden fascination. His weakness in a world where men like him are not allowed to feel anything at all. She fears him. He tastes her fear like hunger. But there's something else in her scent- something soft, something pure, something he never expected: innocence. And for a monster who has lived centuries bathing in blood, her innocence is the sharpest temptation he has ever known. She wants to go home. He has no intention of returning her. Because in his world, time is power. Magic is law. And once a vampire king chooses someone, the universe bends to obey him. She didn't enter another world by accident. She was taken. Claimed. Bound to a destiny written long before her birth. And Salazar? He is ready to tear apart worlds, timelines, and kingdoms just to keep the girl who wasn't supposed to be his- but now is.Complete
Indecorous
(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "Attract a lot of attention, huh beautiful?" His voice hit me like a wall, absurdly catching me off guard. It was deep, sensual, something any girl (or boy) could melt over. I was sort of speechless, yet trying my best to appear unafflicted. "Only the wrong ones." That was definitely drunken me talking, as I didn't usually have that much confidence. His lips twitched up into a smirk, expressing that he understood my comment. "Does that mean that I'm in that category?" My palms began to grow sweaty and my heart rate picked up, but otherwise my body remained relaxed, appearing completely fine. It similar to when you're on autopilot, completely withdrawn due to intoxication. "I suppose not," I crossed my arms, putting on this seductive persona just for him. This fueled his smirk, about to murmur another comment before I cut him off. "You'll have to show me, though." *** Amelia Hollis was a 23-year-old writer at one of the local publishing companies, assisting a very handsome man and writing articles left and right. Her and her best friend, Aviary, lived together in a cute little apartment off the central part of the city, yearning to create new memories and important moments. Amelia always lived for the moments, taking in every little detail and savoring it like it was her favorite meal. She was an optimist, hoping to change peoples lives with her dreams. James Vallette was a 34-year-old CEO, building his company from dirt with the help of his brother. He was a realist, not really having time to deal with dreams or even love. He knew this the night he laid eyes on Amelia. It was only casual; what harm could a one-night stand do? Oh yeah, he's her dad's boss.Complete
Friends (Loki x Reader) Completed !
Lol I found this in my Microsoft Word. I wrote this a long time ago... This is a 3 chapters long story. They are very long. If they wouldn't be, then they were at least over 20 chapters (Because I always stop at 1000). The characters do not belong to me, but to Marvel. My own characters are Dani, Princess Mila, Mila's parents, Nebulus and Toronto. Enjoy reading it ! Sneak Peak.... "Hey...Loki ?" He turned around, looking at her. "Yes, Destiny ?" She fiddled nervously with her fingers. "I had fun today. I was wondering if you would like to be my friend...? We could meet more often and play that way." Loki smiled at her happily. "Of course ! I had fun today too ! I would love to be your friend ! Do you want to meet with me tomorrow at the palace ?" "Friends forever ?" "Until death do us apart." "I think we can dig me my grave this time. He is very mad..." "We went a little too far this time...", Destiny mumbled. "Show me." "No !" "Loki...We are friends. I won't leave you just because of your true heritage. You are not a Monster." "What the Hel were you thinking ?!", she yelled. "Loki...I thought we were friends..." Now Loki laughed meanly. "I never wanted you as a friend ! You and your clingy, needy self just annoyed me long enough, until I agreed ! You are filth in my eyes !" Then Mila grabbed arrow and bow, drew the bow with the arrow, aimed blindly and shot. "Yes, Loki ?" "Is Destiny with you ? She isn't at home..." As the tip almost touched Mila, and Odin wanted to scream stop, Mila stepped aside and Sigyn ran, apperently, ungracefully into a pillar. "Destiny ?", she asked unsure. "Did you ever come to the thought, that maybe she was right anyways ? That she maybe hid something from you ? Something terrible and she didn't want to stuff you full with details ?" "You mean that she just told me half of the story ?", Loki asked Odin confused. MOVED TO AO3 !!!Complete
