Something about it was so mysterious about this cave, and I wanted to know more. 

I entered the cave and saw a red crystal sealed in ice. 

"Woah." I whispered. 

The crystal glowed and the ice shattered. 

I jumped back and fell to the ground, watching as the ice broke completely. 

My eyes widened and I looked at my hands. 

"Did I do that?" I asked, but before I could answer, I heard a guard shout for backup as they had heard the ice shattering. 

I quickly jumped up and stashed the crystal in my pocket before leaving. 

I crept to the cave the following day, putting the crystal back into the remains of the ice pillar. 

As I walked away, the crystal fell, causing it to break into a million pieces. 

I jumped at the sudden noise and stumbled backwards, my eyes widening as a black smog formed around the crystal. 

"No, no, no, no! Frick." I desperately tried to grab the remains of the crystal, causing one to cut my hand. 

"Ow! Shit." I whispered, looking at my bleeding hand. 

"Tch, tch, tch, poor child." A demonic voice said. 

I looked up and saw that the black smog had two red eyes and a wide, sick smile that was dripping with venom. 

"I- who are you?" I asked, backing up. 

"The one who can help you out of here." It said, stretching out a hand. 

I looked it up and down and before I could answer, its hand plunged into my heart, causing me to scream out in pain.

"Who are you?" I demand. The boy in front of me replies, "That's not how this works, love." I freeze. That phrase. That voice. It can't be. I look up but he's just a cloaked silhouette. The rustling stops when boys surrounding us step from their hiding spots and light lanterns. Every single one of them masked and cloaked. Except the one in front of me. The lamps lit, and I see his face. "Whoa," slips from my lips as I stare at the boy in front of me. His eyes widen and his jaw almost, just almost, drops. With his guard down for that one instant I lose all fear and gain control. "You!" I yell suddenly overflowing with anger. My stomach heats with rage. I fight to stand, stronger this time with anger as fuel. He backs up, his breath increasing. Obviously, uneasy, I take it as a win and almost stand all the way. "You. What are you doing here? How did you find this place!" He switched to angry. "You! You're the reason! They put me back because of you! It was all cause of you! It was your fault! All of it!" I'm so angry I yell only what I can. My thoughts flying through my head I can only yell unexplained nonsense. I've never felt anger like this before. The red glow lightly pours off my own skin and I take notice to it. I compare it to the glow coming off of him. Suddenly, it's an instinct to allow the anger to explode and in doing so the red glow is taken from his chest as I absorb it all and throw it out in all directions. I yank down away from the boy holding me just as the red glow gets sucked from him, absorbed into my hands, and then thrown out in a sphere of red glow. All boys stumbling but not by much and the one holding me gets knocked back, I'm free. "You die now, Peter Pan!"

Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.

Nothing could compare to the way her gaze made me feel. The flames licking my skin and the raging fire in my veins was way more bearable. The moment our eyes connected, it was like my body found a new kind of flame. The kind that only she was able to draw from me. I've never felt my body being set ablaze like this before. One day here in this new town and I was already losing my mind over my new neighbour. A really pretty, hot neighbour. Her long, wavy platinum blonde hair, pale skin and icy blue eyes that seemed to stare depths into my soul and keep me frozen in place. I couldn't seem to leave. Her pink lips were parted slightly as she tried to catch her breath. I swallowed. One step forward and I could hold her. One tilt of my head and I could kiss her lips. If only I could have a taste of those lips- I have to get out of here. I turned and left, my heart nearly overpowering my brain to stop and go back to her. Only one thought kept me going. Who could ever love a monster? -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ Hey guys! I'm back with a new story and I've had this idea in my head for quite some time and I'm glad to finally be posting it! Firstly, I got inspiration for this book from a Korean drama called "Goblin" and it's one of the best dramas I've come across after so long. Secondly, no reuploading or copying or plagiarising or whatever it is that is illegal because I will slice your neck and leave you hanging to die :) Jk, maybe. Not really. Thirdly, please enjoy this book and leave comments! Sincerely, Janice GoldShaken *Created, Published & Completed in Year 2017* (Editing Complete ~2018)

I'm enjoying my food and I'll take your advice, but" then I leaned forward and whispered to him "I may castrate you before you do that.

There's a bed in the middle of the library with a huge window, you can see the ocean. Standing in front of the king-sized bed, he throws me. He begins at my entrance, sucking each incurable thought out of me. There's a table near us, laying a cup of whisky. He grabs it, spilling it all over my body. I flinch due to the ice. He looks up at me, grabbing my arms and pinning them down. "Stay still," he demands. He sucks the liquid off of my ribs, my nipples, my hips. He comes up to my face almost touching my lips with his. "No one will ever make you feel this way." he says. I nearly jump up only to get a taste of myself. He pushes me back down, smiling down at me. He laughs, "Sooo impatient." as he starts.. (Chapter 17) Anastasia Ruby Levine is an 18-year-old senior in High School, desperate for the acceptance of Columbia University, and the fervency of love; dominant love. After weeks of no father and only mother, she finds the confession of her mother's fondness rather unfair until her fondness occurs to be a man, a man with a son, guided by the Romans of looks, formed by the work of divinity. He's charming, yes, but very, very dangerous. Ana, on the other hand, is all in for danger, frightened, of course, but also wildly intimated and forced into his pleasures, the pleasures of women and men; his women and her dominant man. They fall, but they fall deeply. (Contains violence, anger, sexual content, strong language, blood, and sexual abuse.) (I do not own any of the Hemlock Grove characters, this is a fanfiction story!)

I'm worth more than that considering I'm a virgin and have a big ass so it's gonna have to be more than that before I let that happen. "Sorry but-'' my dad was about to refuse the offer when he interrupted him with another offer. "4 Million dollars and considered all your debts paid," He said. My dad quickly got up and looked at me before looking back at Mr.Dragon. I know my father is not about to- "OK." my dad said. "Wait! Hold up Mister, I'm 18 which means I'm old enough to make my decision and my dad do not have a say in this!"I yelled. Causing all attention to myself which I quickly regretted. Mr. Dragon face lights up in amusement at what I just did. "Either that or you both die, simple," he says looking me in the eyes.

Dark romance forced proximity Updated weekly Wednesday Smut containing chapters will have 🔥 in title His rough, husky breath whispered in my ear, "Now, what's a girl like you doing at a time like this?" I refused to answer him as I continued to try and break out of his iron-like grip. "Let me go," I whispered breathlessly. I felt the vibration of his laugh on my back. "Now, why would I do that little one? You're mine." ''Wh-what n-n-no you're not let me go now," I said as I dug my fingernails into his forearms. His calm composure was gone as he slammed my body against a nearby wall. I whimpered lightly. He responded roughly. "I'm not going to say this again, little one. You are testing my patience. I'm not afraid to put you in your place. You aren't leaving me; you are mine!!! Do I make myself clear?!!!" I felt tears stream down my face as I responded with a nob. He didn't seem pleased with this "answer with your words, dammit," he screamed. "Yeah, I understand, I said shakily. He smiled at me, brought his lips up to my check, and kissed me. "Okay, let's go, "he said with a light smile, grabbing my hand in an iron-like grip. A car stopped near me, and he opened the door, trying to pull me in. I quickly came to the realization what was happening, and I ran away from him. However, he easily caught me and threw me over his shoulder. I pounded my fist against his back. It seemed to unfase him as he threw me, closed the door, and looked hard at me. I sank down at his glare. "Go, Andrew," the strange man called out. After a while, his anger seemed to dial down, and he then sighed, running his hand through his brown hair.
