"Jadine? The police are here!" 

 The same detective that saw me yesterday was in front me. Detective Russo. He looked more tired, dark moons under his eyes and I could pick out flecks of grays in his hair.  The air quickly turned to ice, leaving me uncomfortable and disoriented. 

"Yes?" 

"Jadine, I need to show you something we've found." I nod as if for him to continue.  "...You may want to sit down for this," I did as he said and plopped into an old wooden chair. 

"We found some markings on Alyss' body-" 

"Markings?" Russo lets out an impatient sigh. 

"Your name was engraved in her flesh." I was gaping, letting the information sink in. 

"It was more of a message..." 

"W-what did it say?" 

"It said, 'Everyone isn't who they appear to be, Jadine.'"Seluruh Hak Cipta Dilindungi Undang-Undang

Tell Me It's Forever oleh peanuttttxo

"Hey," I get her attention as I sit closer to her. "We're doing everything we can to find this mob okay? You'll be out of this situation in no time." "And what if something bad happens," she looks at me wide eyed with those beautiful eyes of hers. Can never forget the colour. Hazel with little bits of green inside them. "Nothing bad will happen." "But something bad always happens to me. I have such a bad feeling about all this and my gut never lies to me," her voice cracks at the end. "It's life and death. Nothing ever good comes out of that." A lone tear slides down her cheek and she shuts both her eyes tightly, her palms squeezing the fuck out of her thighs. I quickly grab one of them so she can stop hurting herself and put pressure on my palm instead. "I need you to stop crying and go rest now. I think that would be best for you." "But..." "No buts. I know you're a strong independent woman that really needs to solve this and find out what's going on but stop okay? I'll take care of it." "Pinky swear?" She sniffs as she holds out her little finger and I find myself smiling at her. "Of course." I wrap my finger with hers. What happened next really surprised me. *** Liya Abrechtt, a popular girl at college, starting her career, straight A student, everyone loves her, her life is practically normal. Until it isn't.

Zephyr's Promise oleh chloejmcc322

Life never was going to be easy, I knew that. But even I couldn't anticipate teaming up with my ex-boyfriends mysterious wife, or the darkness she unintentionally walks us into. All bets are off when one of the Kings of the underworld requests an audience, and no fool, even a jester would deny him. Unless you want him off with your head. **** It's the simplest things that he makes seem so grand. The way he sits, blinks, hell even the way he picks up his glass of vodka. His tattooed hands wrapped around the glass, finding the right amount of grip so as to not break it. Glancing at him only one time I know he is the definition of beautiful chaos, perfection. One breath, two- "And that's your problem now." His deep voice whispers in my ear, the goosebumps that ripple my skin let me know this is very much real. "You don't realize that the promise of a man like me, is forever and binding."

I'm fat but my cold boss is obsessed with my body oleh lovingmixilon

"You... want me to show you my belly? And you're paying me 500 dollars for it?" I repeated in disbelief. "Yes," Mr. Calnan replied curtly. Shock mixed with suspicion. Mr. Calnan, our strict and cold boss, who had banned all workplace romance, wanted to see... my belly? Why my belly, of all things?! And why ME?! This had to be a test. He was testing whether I would agree, only to fire me afterward. But even that theory had flaws-after all, he was the one who initiated this crazy idea. I hesitated for what felt like a long time. Then, in the end, curiosity won over, and on a sudden impulse, I spread open my work coat and lifted my white T-shirt. Mr. Calnan's gaze instantly locked onto my bare stomach. His focused stare burned into my skin as he thoroughly examined every square inch of the exposed area. My face burned with embarrassment. He didn't say anything, and he didn't grimace, but I could see on his face that he didn't like what he saw. My chubby belly, my stretch marks, and the faint line of hair below my navel that I hadn't had time to shave. Well, I know it's not the most attractive sight, but then why did he want to see my belly? Honestly, what was he expecting? "Can I pull my T-shirt back down?" I asked, humiliated and irked. "Yes," Mr. Calnan replied after a brief pause. He didn't speak for a while, just stared at my now-covered stomach with a blank expression. Meanwhile, I waited impatiently and tensely for him to do something. I needed to know whether he was actually going to give me the money or not, and whether it would turn out that this had all just been a test. Suddenly, he moved toward me, closing the distance between us. He loomed over me, and I looked up at his face in alarm. "I'll give you another 1000 if you let me touch your hips." My eyes widened in shock. *Edited to fit within the character limit for the description

The Arranged Marriage oleh Biblidiblidu

A cold cop and his newly wedded wife go from enemies to lovers, with teasing and roasting adding spice to their journey. As they navigate their roles and desires, their relationship heats up, blending thrilling crime narratives with steamy romance. Add in some jealousness, possessiveness, intimate moments and a lot of second-hand embarrassment. xxxx "Baby, why are you glowing all of a sudden?" Asher's voice was laced with amusement, his eyes twinkling mischievously. "I glow every day. You just failed to see it," I replied with a teasing smirk, rolling my eyes in mock exasperation. "Oh, I know! You're glowing because you're an angel on Earth-" he started, his tone full of charm. "And this angel will be taking the window seat," I cut him off with a laugh, seeing through his playful tactics. Asher feigned disappointment, his lips forming a pout. "But baby, I wanted to enjoy the view with my favorite person." I leaned in closer, a playful glint in my eyes. "You'll still enjoy the view, just from the aisle seat this time." He chuckled, shaking his head in mock defeat. "Alright, angel, you win this round." I grinned triumphantly, feeling a rush of excitement. "Just this round? I always win, you know." He leaned even closer, his voice dropping to a whisper. "Well, maybe I let you win because I like seeing that victorious smile on your face." My cheeks flushed at his words, and I playfully nudged his shoulder. "Smooth talker." He winked, his gaze holding mine. "Only for you, angel."

Touch Of Misery oleh gg0105

Catalina Stone was born into luxury, but with a price. She was raised by the Stone Mafia-a world of power, blood, and danger. By the age of eight, she was already learning how to lead, and by sixteen, she took control. At eighteen, she pushed her mafia into the top three in the country. Now at twenty-three, Catalina is everything she's worked for: strong, sexy, and in charge. But lately, things aren't so simple. New people, new emotions...things are starting to feel, human. And for once, she's starting to question it all. Then Giovanni Perez walks into her life. And everything changes. But Catalina knows better than anyone. When you mess with fire, you're bound to get burned. Sample: "Mafia I see, didn't take you as the type," He said, breaking our silent staring contest. "Then I'm doing my job," "Damn good one if you're in the top three." "Thank you, I know," I said. We were studying each other. His body in that tux looked delicious. His hair was styled differently, less slicked back, I liked this one more. He was practically looking at me the same way. Like as if he wanted me right now, on this table. "Why'd you leave?" He questioned. "Well, it was a one night stand wasn't it?" "No, we wanted to be friends. But since clearly now, were aligned, we can be more." He said. Definitely not. "No, Giovanni, you and I are just work partners. Nothing more. Don't get confused from something that only happened once." My voice was serious. I was serious. Now that I know who he is and that we're working together, I can't risk it. "One date." He said.

Warning! This story contains sensitive topics. ** I looked into his dark eyes and saw, what I once naïvely thought, was innocence. ** "Please!" she cried, curling into herself and holding her arms to her chest. "I want to go home! I haven't done anything to you! Let me go please!" Anger washed over me. What was she not understanding? "Mia!" I snapped, holding her neck tighter, staring down into her watery brown eyes. "You can't leave, I won't let you! I can't lose you! And you have done something. You've stolen my heart." I felt a grin play on my lips as I leaned more onto her. "and for that, baby, you've done everything." [COMPLETE]✅ (This book will be rewritten at some point!)

WARNING: This story contains explicit material and some languages which may not be appropriate to everyone. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK. This is my first story ever. I hope you enjoy reading every part of this psychological thriller. Comments and suggestions are most welcome. Reproduction of any part of this original story is prohibited. PROLOGUE Head investigator, Brent Sherwood found a very distraught young woman at the crime scene. She was hiding in the walk-in closet behind the hanging wardrobes of the dead man. Her eyes were wary and scared. He asked for her name. "Nikola", she whispered in thick Italian accent. Her voice was full of anguish and despair . "Are you the dead man's daughter?" Brent asked the young woman whose exotic beauty was covered with sweat, tears and great fear. She shook her head and mumbled, "Wife". There's a pang of regret that stuck in his throat. In that moment of disbelief, he immediately erased that first impression to console a bereaved woman. Whoever believes in love at first? Such foolishness should be deleted off his mind. His feelings must not cloud his judgement. He must act in accordance to his job even if it's his first time to admire a woman after 3 years in solitude. Did she kill her husband? That's the question he must unravel before focusing on his own personal motive.

To Test My Fate oleh LolaDeshotel

My heart was racing. My Lycan danced around in my head as I was meeting with her for the second time now. I froze as her eyes met with mine again. Only this time I saw her more clearly. She did not smell of the rouge that was lying before me a year ago, and her weakened figure was replaced by a symphony of curves that was blessed by the moon goddess herself. Her face was perfect, with the most seductive lips I have ever seen on a she wolf. However, there was also something strangely powerful about my beautiful mate sitting before me. I cursed to myself quietly. I knew that she hated me because of the way she has been treated this last year inside of my kingdom. And I deserved that. However she was still mine, and no one was to touch her. Not even my gamma. Not even my Luna... There wasn't always tension between Alexander and the rouge werewolves around his kingdom. Not until one killed his first fated mate, and disappeared into the wilderness. Now, every rouge that he encounters is either severely punished, or worst. Deciding to rekindle his relationship with his childhood sweetheart, and now Luna, he encounters a huge problem. He is drawn to his new fated mate more than he could ever imagine, meeting her for a second time after almost rejecting her and even wanting her dead. It is also around this time as well that his current Luna is now being looked at through new lenses, thanks to a watchful eye in the kingdom.

She fell on the vampire. *** "You don't know anything about him!" He was concerned. "Then why don't you tell me, I wanna know about him more." I placed my last pawn. The boss's pawn. Now he was furious or jealous. He got up from his place and pull my hand. I stood up his face was just an inch away. I could feel his breath on my face. "How about I tell you about myself?" His husky voice in my ears made my body shiver. I closed my eyes. "Open your eyes, Al." I didn't open my eyes. I felt his fingers on my chin as he spoke. "Al, look at me." I opened my eyes and my eyes met his gaze and then he kissed the corner of my mouth. *** How hard it can be to be with the one you don't love or the one who despises you?
