"I know this is probably not making any sense," He stated, his voice full of emotion. "I'm afraid of letting someone in, of letting someone see who I actually am. I'm afraid of being hurt, of being rejected. I know it's not rational, but it's what I feel. I've been hurt to death, and I don't want to go through that again." He looked up at her, his eyes full of sadness and fear.
She didn't know what to say.
"I've tried so hard to stop myself from loving you," his voice, thick with emotions. "I've tried to keep you at arm's length, to protect myself from getting hurt. But I can't do it anymore. I just can't. I love you, and I don't know how to turn it off." He took a deep breath, and closed his eyes for a moment. When he opened them, he looked at her with a desperate, pleading look.

Allison's Desire
Why don't you get it? I can never be good for you! I am worthless" I said trying to hold in my tears. There was no way he was going to see me cry. "They are beautiful to me. I don't see a single reason why you should hate them" he said moving his wheel chair closer to where I stood. "This" he said bringing my hand where I had some faint scars and kissing them. "Would always be a story to me of how you survived." He looked at me. There were no lies in them, just his pure truth. "I love you Aren" he said. For the first time since anyone said that to me, I believed it.Complete
The Unbreakable Thread!
"Get on your knees." The command was a low snarl, laced with a threat that turned my blood to ice. Reluctantly, I complied, one hand clutching my throbbing cheek. My eyes widened in horror as he began to undress, the terrifying reality of the situation crashing down on me. "Touch me," he demanded. I was trapped, paralyzed by a fear I had never known. As he moved closer, the unsettling change in his body left me dizzy with panic and confusion. My mind screamed in silent protest-this was a nightmare from which I couldn't wake. This is not a fairy tale. This is the story of a girl shattered by a brutal invasion, whose spirit was tested by betrayal, shame, and a world that offered no safe haven. It is the story of her survival-a long, arduous journey through pain toward a hard-won strength, and the unexpected love that waited for her on the other side. ***This is the first part of a two-series saga. Your thoughts and comments are deeply appreciated as I share this journey with you.***
Cherish Every Moment Book 2: Secrets
Secrets: everyone has them; he had many. "Hey girl. You alright?" was all that, that gentle voice had to say to make the tears break free again. She wanted to wail, to scream, and generally break down. She wanted to be held in his arms, in hers. It didn't matter; she could have neither and it broke her heart. She took several deep breaths to try and find her calm before even trying to speak. Her friend, knowing her better than most ever would, waited patiently, in silence for her to answer. No. She was not alright.Complete
Dangerous Soulmate
Captured by your savior. Who would have thought.. ? - "I can't leave you alone.. I won't," he whispered against my lips. His breath mixed with mine as I turned my head to look at him, anticipating his next move. Before I could even blink, his mouth crashed against mine, igniting my soul. His tongue found its way inside my mouth and tangled with mine, the fire burning deeper within. He pulled back for a second and spoke softly, "Say you're mine." "I'm yours," I whispered hoarsely, my voice clouded with need. - Book cover images came off of google and cover was made using canva and picsart ❤️Complete
Boundaries of Obsession
His eyes told how dark his thoughts were, what devilish aura he shadowed if she accepted him and was ready to listen to him no one could imagine his doings. She only seeks solitude, but he seeks her, and he craves her as if his life depended on her. He is the cause of her pain. She only wishes to go away from all the emotions, but he can never let that happen. He can show his tears to her, but can she wipe them? Maybe God wanted to create an unforgettable story. His aura screams power that no one can deny except bowing. Her soul reflects others' sins for what others fear to acknowledge. Did she hate him for giving her pain? No, she never hated him. She changed herself.. but what change? She loves him! Maybe not... then what changed...? Love, why is it so difficult either to gain or to lose... "I don't like it when you think about things other than me," he said Is this the start of his madness, or is he already drowned in insanity? She is his heart.........She is the eternal echo God cast into existence for his life. ●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●● He is taking every step near to her, his deep dark eyes looking at her serene, calm face... she is looking directly into his deep, dark ebony eyes... she can clearly see the insanity in his eyes... "Sweetheart, I told you not to think about other things.... but why would you like to provoke me... ha, " his voice is deadly low, sending an electrifying jolt. She is just standing in front of him looking into his sinister soul... He touched her cheek gently, rubbing the soft, gentle, dried tear marks.. He kissed her forehead... she closed her eyes, accepting her fate from which she tried to run away.... "Tell me, sweetheart, what punishment should I give him." A dark mysterious smirk playing on his handsome face... "He is your sister's soon to be husband," she said as he didn't know. He chuckled, a mocking, sinister, extremely insane smile
A Dangerous Lie
I smile and touch my bruise. I feel like Michael trusts me now. He use to ignore me but now he listens to me, like a friend. "You know, you're that someone I never thought I would fall for..." he trails off and I blush. Is he saying what I think he's saying? Does he feel the same way I do? I lean in and kiss him. He kisses me back and he cups my cheek with his warm hand. I kiss him harder and wrap my arms around his neck. Then he leans closer and puts his hands on my waist, pulling me closer to him. I lean closer to him but then he pulls away. "What's the matter? I thought you feel the same way I do." I say. "I do but, I don't wanna loose you." (Heads up: this book was made like maybe two years ago omg and it needs so much editing so I'm sorry if it's crappy but I promise the plot is okay)Complete
The Trials
How do you destroy the biggest part of you? How do you ignore the call of something so beautiful yet so deadly? How do you resist the darkness that's been living, growing and thriving in you even before you were born? How do you turn down the only chance to get all the answers you desire, even if it leads you down a path of chaos, horror, and madness? A path others have fought for you not to tread. But why fight at all? Why fight a fire that only burns brighter? "Listen, you can choose not to believe this. But I've been where you are, I've felt what you feel." I opened my mouth to snap back, but he continued, his voice more broken that I'd ever heard it. "Don't ask me how I know - all I know is I don't want to hurt you. I don't want a throne. I just... I just want you to be okay. I can't... I can't lose you too." His eyes held sincerity that should've filled me with guilt. Pain that should've made me reach for him. Something more that should've made my heart ache. But none affected me. Not anymore. I smiled, my voice barely above a whisper. "What makes you think I care about you losing me... when I don't even care if I lose myself?" The others may be trying to douse the fire, but I'd rather let it burn. Burn until it consumed us all.
The unreachable mountain
"You're unbearable!" He kicks her with utter contempt. "Please tell me where I'm wrong, causing you discomfort was not my intention," she said crying, causing him to hit her against the ground again. "Do you think you can live with good intentions? Didn't you have all the time you wanted to change and learn? You still dare to ask for more!" He yells at her with hatred, he blamed her for being the one will cause a woman to be beaten; He didn't want to be that kind of man. However, what he lived with her caused him to bring out what he hated the most about himself from within. -Forget it love- said a woman who was next to her- it's not worth it- this dog was supposed to be her friend, she was supposed to support her just like she did; however he managed so that he and she hated each other and thus be able to steal it. The woman on the floor does not know how much she was framed and harmed by her naivety, nor did she know that this was the beginning of her misfortunes. Because of that woman she did not stop suffering, wherever she went she suffered verbal or physical abuse and everything was orchestrated by this woman; she didn't know until she was about to faint. "Why?" She asked this unarmed woman without knowing why she hated him so much. She never did anything to hurt him. She just laughed viciously without answering him, she didn't have to waste her time with an insect; leaving La to die imprisoned in the house where she was kidnapped. "Answer me!" She got up from her bed screaming "Eh? This looks like my room; Did I reincarnate myself in the past?" She ran to the bathroom just to see that her assumption was correct. She thanked the heavens for this second chance by promising that she wouldn't be fooled a second time.Complete
