"Shut up," he said softly, his breath caressing my lips. The command was gentle, but it sent a shiver down my spine.

I couldn't help but think that I preferred his first way of telling me to shut up - the one that left me breathless and wanting more. And now, as he traced a finger over my lips, I felt a surge of desire coursing through me. 

"You have no idea how much I wanted to do that...and more," he whispered, his eyes burning with intensity, "from the first day I saw you dripping wet in front of my pool."

Scarlet in the Shadows by liv_in_words

"Don't look at me like that," Eli growled, his voice a low rumble that sent shivers down my spine. I lifted my chin, a defiant glint in my eyes. "Like what?" He leaned in, his lips hovering just above my skin, each word a heated whisper. "Like you want something you can't have." My breath hitched. Callum's smile, usually so comforting, felt like a distant memory. Eli's gaze, dark and intense, held me captive. My heart pounded against my ribs, a frantic rhythm that echoed the turmoil in my mind. "Maybe I do," I murmured, the words a challenge, a dare. ~~~ Hunted by a stalker with a twisted obsession, Scarlet seeks refuge in Havenwood, a picture-perfect town cloaked in secrets and shadows. But safety proves elusive. She finds herself drawn to two men: Eli, a brooding recluse with a past shrouded in darkness, and Callum, whose easy charm and genuine warmth offered a stark contrast to Eli's intensity. As passion ignites and the town's sinister secrets unravel, Scarlet must choose: Will she succumb to Eli's raw intensity, find solace in Callum's steady embrace, or forge her own dangerous path in a place where temptation lurks behind every corner?

His lips are dominating my own, as his hands travel down my back, and he tugs on my shirt, to release it from my skirt. His hands then caresses my bare skin for a few minutes, before he sits up. He brings me with him, and I'm now straddling his lap. His eyes are filled with lust, and I'm so damn scared, for completely different reasons than earlier tonight. His skillful fingers finds the buttons of my shirt, and he opens them slowly, while I lean back down towards him, to make our lips connect again. I might come to my senses if he doesn't keep kissing me. He tugs the shirt off of me, and his hands run across my bare stomach. He stops, suddenly, and I feel a sharp sting under my left boob. "What happened? Are you..." He trails off, as he looks down at my body, and I stiffen. Holy shit, I forgot all about that. "Ives... What is this?" he asks, and he pulls his hands away from me. 🌹 Ives has just moved away from her overprotective brother and their alcoholic dad to go to college. She is trying her best to put her past behind her, but it keeps coming back to haunt her. In this book we get to know Ives and her new friends as she struggles with her newfound freedom.

He promised me forever and vowed to never let them come between us. As the sole heir to the Montgomery empire, he'd been groomed since birth to follow in his father's footsteps. It's why I tried to fight the attraction. As an impoverished girl from the fringes of our small town, I knew our relationship was doomed from the start.

For the sake of our future, I urged him to follow the path they'd laid out for him, with the promise I'd wait, no matter how long it took. While he pursued their dreams, I navigated alone. Yet, despite the distance, our hearts remained tethered, clinging to the hopeful future we were certain was ours. But when tragedy strikes, tearing our world to pieces, we're left teetering on the edge, uncertain how our love will withstand our newfound reality. He swore he would protect me. If only we'd known the lengths they would go to break us apart.

Starlight by a_readsss

"Get the fuck away from me, Leo." I lean down a little, so we're barely eye level. "You followed me to New York. Are you really that desperate?" "If you believe that my life revolves around your immature self, then your life must be sad. I fucking hate you," she responds. I twirl one of her curls between my fingers as I lean closer to her ear. "So why don't you go back to leaving, yeah?" ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* :･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧ 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐞.

Heavenly Sin (EDITING) by IMAWRITESSS

"I could kill you," he grins holding the gun to my temple. "I wouldn't be scared," I reminded him. He trails the gun under my chin lifting it, allowing me to look him in the eyes. "No one would know you were murdered by me," he continues making me smile. "I think I might have a gun kink;" I tell him while holding eye contact. "Fuck," he mutters as he smashes his lip onto mine, •••• The crimson colour pools beneath me as I let him twist the dagger that had been living in my heart since the day we had met.

Solace In The Silence ✓✓ by Margaret_Gemmar

When Jake lifted his chin up, his dark gaze locking on mine, my stomach ignited like someone had set a match to an ember. His eyes burned with equal longing as they skated over me, lingering on my mouth. His voice came out hoarse when he spoke. "Is there anything else you need?" You , I was tempted to say. Instead, I just shook my head and practically fled to the bathroom, crazily aware of how loud my heart was thundering in my ears. Jake tucked a strand of my damp hair back behind my ear. "Do you need me to put a shirt on, or do you think you can manage to keep your hands to yourself for one night?" he teased.

The Hookup (Book #1) by LaylaJ2711

***COMPLETE*** Book #1 in the Hookup series "You're incredibly sexy Emily" I feel sexy, especially when he's looking at me like that. I could melt into a puddle right here from the way his body is pressed so close to mine and the way his eyes are taking me in. "Hunter," I say in warning as his hand snakes further up my thigh. "Tell me to stop and I'll stop," He says as he pulls me down and nuzzles my hair. "But just remember this is a one-time thing and nobody has to find out about it if you don't want them to." By nobody I know he means Tara. She would literally disown me if she ever found out something had happened between me and one of her brothers. It's girl code, right? You can't sleep with or have any sexual relations with relatives, exes or anyone that your best friend deems unfit.

Life, Love & A Little Coffee by oliviarose85

Graduation is right around the corner for Ada Sinclair. She's spent all of high school saving up for her dream college and skipped high school traditions to keep her grades up for scholarships. When the acceptance letter came in the mail, every ounce of her effort felt worth it. She's spent her life being a small fish in a small pond, but eagerly awaits September so she can spread her wings and move on to big things. When her mother comes home to reveal she is in the early stages of Huntington's Disease, a disease passed down from her own mother, she can't hide from the truth she may be next in line. It is then that her plans and dreams for her future shatter. Nothing is more important to her than her family, people who need her and her strength more than Ada needs her dreams.

He seems fully willing to be there for her again, even if that means risking his career as a teacher; her teacher. As their friendship grows stronger, they find strength in one another and a connection they can only ignore for so long, a connection that comes with life-changing consequences for them both.

S.I.X by KateeSmurfette

Lunch went by pretty quickly, and we were back to classes soon enough. I'd forgotten to get a book from my locker, so I quickly went to get it. I was leaning on the locker next to mine as I quickly scanned my schedule on my locker door, when warm air fanned the side of my face. "Move." Being the excellent human being I am, I jumped out of fright, flinging the heavy calculus textbook in my hand backwards. I heard a grunt and turned to find the person behind me now hunched over as they held onto a part of their face. "Oh God! I'm so sorry!" I panicked. And then he looked up. The first thing I noticed was his short, dark hair. It looked so smooth, and I almost reached out to play with it. My eyes trailed down to his strong jaw line, down to his broad shoulders. I didn't even realize that I was biting my lip as I further inspected the Adonis before me. His arm flexed, bringing my attention to the amber eye he was now covering. It was him. Six. The most popular and dangerous guy in school. And I'd managed to injure him with my calculus textbook. I'm dead. *********** #11 Teen Fiction - 31 December 2015 #15 Teen Fiction - 16 December 2015 #16 Teen Fiction - 16 December 2015
