just some strange and beautiful things -- over the past year or so, i've been collecting word, pictures, and ideas that hit me every time i think or see them. this life is crazy and amazing and so utterly awe-inspiring, just like the people living this life. this book is honoring people's words or existence or just the pure beauty of an uncommon word. *disclaimer: not all of these words are mine... many jaw-dropping things are created by other brilliant minds, not my own*

Into Your World (Complete ✔️)
"That's strange," I said thoughtfully. His brow lifted. "What is?" "I always imagined that if fiction ever stepped out of a book, it'd smell like paper. Or ink. Or something like that." I studied him with exaggerated disappointment. "But you smell human. I feel misled." His lips curved - slow, deliberate. Dangerous. "Oh, love," he murmured. "I may not smell like ink..." His steps slowed. "But I assure you," he continued, leaning closer - not enough to touch, just enough to make my pulse stutter - "I taste like it." Heat rushed to my cheeks, the blush spreading like wildfire as I stared at him, utterly shocked. "If you doubt me," he said softly, eyes dropping to my mouth, "there's a very simple way to confirm." Content Warning This story contains themes and scenes that may be disturbing to some readers, including sexual content, violence and abuse, self-harm, grief and loss, PTSD and trauma, and graphic descriptions of murder and gore.

Don't Mess with the Queen✔️
{book two of the Gang love series} * I got pulled into an empty classroom and a pair of hands covered my eyes. "Guess who?" he whispered into my ear before nibbling on it. I giggled. "Hi, Drew." He turned me around by my waist and placed his lips on mine. "Hi, Queenie." I walked to the side and hopped onto a desk. "Now is there a reason why you pulled me into an empty classroom?" I asked. He walked in between my legs placing his hands on either side of my legs. "I wanted a kiss," he said before leaning forward and connecting our lips again. My hands went to the back of his neck and into his hair. My tongue went into his mouth making him pull me against his body and squeeze my hips. When we pulled apart he rested his forehead against mine. "Will you come over after school? We can work on our project and makeout, well mostly makeout."* High school is hard enough without the problems faced being in California's most feared and the most powerful gang. Regina Di' Medici King is living this life but with the added troubles of Andrew Gray, the son of a rival gang leader, making her feel things she's never felt before. Will the two of them find a way to make it work or will it all fall apart? Sequel to Princess and the Devil. Highly suggest reading the first book. This can be read as a separate book but there would be certain parts that won't make sense. I guess you will just have to read to find out. Caution there will be mature scene, swearing and sexual situations. Once again you don't like that? Then don't read this!

State of Mind
Book 1 of 3 *Began: Monday, October 15, 2018* *Finished: Friday, November 16, 2018* I sat down at a desk with my laptop open and a cup of tea. From there I just let my imagination go wild. My fingers wove the worlds that my mind told me to. This was the outcome. This was the product of that madness. This is the state of my mind. **NOTE: I own all the characters/stories/photos used in this book. Please do not try to claim any of my work as your own without proper crediting.

The Fourth Horseman
I was falling, cascading into the dark chasm of sin and desire. I was unhinged, wild and free, giving in to everything I wanted. I would not hold back tonight. I wanted to fuck him over and over, anywhere and everywhere. Taste him and kiss him. Completely surround myself with only Jay. I will do it all with Jay tonight and every night forward. I am his queen, his weakness, his carnal transgression. I will take him as my own and ride out this delusion with him come what may. A tiny voice in the back of my mind was scolding, cursing, pleading at me to come to my senses, realize the mistakes I was making and the repercussions I would face. I suffocated the whispers, murdered my rational logic in that moment. Death was swift for the girl in my mind looking down with a frown on my actions. I laughed again, knowing this would be my undoing, enjoying the unraveling of my sanity, leaving it in shards on the ground. Because I had made up my mind. I won't let go. ****TRIGGER ⚠️ WARNING This book contains mature content; including language, violence, sexual content, drugs and alcohol and a near rape scenario.
