Adam And Lilith. (A Modern Retelling).
Before Eve, there was Lilith. Before the apple, there was fire. Long before memory shaped into myth and scripture carved stories into stone, there was a first woman-wild, unyielding, and free. Formed from the same earth as Adam, she was not made to serve, but to stand beside. And when the heavens demanded her submission, she chose exile over obedience. Centuries passed. Worlds crumbled and rebuilt. Names changed. Languages died. But some souls cannot forget, no matter how many lifetimes they wear. In this life, Adam wears a collar and stands behind a pulpit, preaching peace while wrestling with the echo of a storm that has never truly passed. Lilith, ever the rebel, lives in glass towers and bank vaults, calculating numbers by day and suppressing dreams she doesn't understand by night. They meet again. Not in Eden. Not in exile. But in the space between-where memory stirs, and destiny waits. This is not a love story. It is a reckoning. A return. A rewriting of the tale they were never allowed to finish.Complete

Brave Enough To Love Again
I stood with my back to her, shielding her, and my murderous eyes stared down at the poor excuse of a man, promising unimaginable pain if he dared to move or even flinch.

Our Secret [Completed]
[Book 2 in the Secret series] "That's not what I meant..." I chew on my lip. "Well, what the fuck did you mean then?" He shouts. "When I'm there I don't have to think about you!" I yell back.

His form immediately stands and he strides over to me, he is now inches away from me, his body is so close to mine that I am forced to take a couple of steps backwards. My back is pressed up against the window. Noah's breathing is deep but he speaks softly, "when you're there all I can think about is you." He raises his hand and tucks a strand of hair behind my ear.

I pick up my bag and rush out of the door leaving Noah in the room and saving myself from doing something I would definitely regret and make me change my mind about going back to Pennsylvania. ------------ 'I love you too,' were the last words Sophia heard before she was banished from her home city and she left without a second thought.
