Touch: Awakening
The first touch burns. The second will change her life. In the future, humans will never see each other face to face. Technology will facilitate all interactions, from emails to spoken conversations to a hike up a tree-lined mountain. They'll rely on machines to provide them with their basic needs and favorite indulgences, and they'll never know another person's touch. This is the world Alexis is born into. A grad student slated to become impregnated in a few months' time, Lexi's been struggling with her wild and reckless thoughts. Why aren't they allowed to question the Government's decisions? What if her friend, Parker, is right, and the pill regimen they're on deadens their sense of touch? And why does her heart stop and her chest squeeze whenever she's around Drew? Drew's a dangerous man. He asks the questions she's afraid to voice and makes her think. Makes her wonder. Makes her yearn. He promises to help her find the answers, the two of them fumbling toward something they don't understand. The first touch is painful, the second one less so. Each one awakens feelings Lexi has no words for, until she craves Drew like an addict needing a fix. As they discover what the Government has kept from them all their lives, they fight to find a way to have it all - even as it threatens to destroy them forever. **** Later chapters contain situations intended for a mature audience.

Promises and Love
Chaos? Absolutely! _________ "So you read these kind of books. Does it mean you'll fall for a jerk and would try to change him. Tsk Tsk." He mocked. "I love to watch psychopathic thrills too. Especially serial killer ones. Does it mean I will be roaming around to kill people? By the way I won't mind to do that if you'll be my first kill. I have an old rusty sword too." She replied dangerously leaning toward him. _________ "You're only mine. Did you get it?" He asked looking directly into her black orbs. She gulped at the possessiveness dripping from his eyes. "Words, love. Words." He asked. "Who's?" "Y-yours." She breathed out slowly. _________ What would happen when two friends will meet after fourteen years of separation? They have too much to say but words can't define the longings they suffered. Its their journey to mend their friendship, clearing out all the misunderstandings and fulfilling broken promises.

Deeper Healing
"As I passionately kiss your lips and breathe all of you in, release your pain to me; let me inhale it and let my soothing touch heal your broken soul. -------- What starts as soft glares and innocent forehead kisses turns into something more carnal, deeper and wickedly tempting to explore. She isn't looking for true love, a concept she has given up on searching for. What her soul burns for is a man's touch to set her body ablaze and consume her completely in a whirlwind of intense pleasure and ecstasy. He desires a vibrant woman to do all the wickedly sinful things burning in his mind to, one who can unleash the dominant beast in him and torture sensually with all the pleasure he has to offer. She seems to be all he's ever needed and maybe someone whose heart he can heal and stitch back in place piece by piece until it can beat hard in her chest again and say his name. But nothing ever comes on a silver platter, especially with loads of drama and misfortunes tailing each one of them from sources closer than they could ever imagine. ⚠︎Warning: This story contains explicit sexual content, mentions of sexual assault, mild language, drama and is a slowburnLengkap

Catching Avery
What do you get when you mix beer, tequila, and sexual fantasies? Don't ask. Avery With a great job, two of the greatest friends ever, a supportive brother, and an apartment all her own, Avery Ellis didn't have much to complain about. Well...if she could just ignore how every guy that she's ever been with has cheated on her, then she had nothing to complain about. Still, other than her love life, Avery's life was pretty uncomplicated. That is, until disaster strikes like lightning. Disaster = Nicholas Savage, her boss. Nicholas With a successful business, two of the most loyal friends ever, more money than he'll ever need, and the world pretty much at his fingertips, Nicholas Savage had no complaints. Well...if he didn't count his childhood and his trust issues, then he had nothing to complain about. Still, other than his issues with women, Nicholas' life was pretty magnificent. That is, until temptation crashes out of control. Temptation = Avery Ellis, his employee. Oh, the web we weave... With a girls' night that's turned into a disaster, and a guys' night that's turned into possible felonious kidnapping charges, Avery finds herself unable to resist everything that is Nicholas Savage, regardless of the fact that he is her boss. In a classic cliché, Avery and Nicholas end up breaking all the rules. Their connection is undeniable, but then so is the baggage they both carry around with them. With trust being an issue for both of them, everything comes crashing down all around them when old ghosts start showing up and begin haunting them both. Avery finds herself regretting that damn glitter and peanut butter fantasy, and Nicholas finds himself regretting being such a terrible wingman.

The Gun For Hire's Bounty
Tempest has no human bone in her body. She is devoid of all emotions, making her 'job' as a guns-for-hire easy- at least, that's what the heroes call it. She doesn't see it as a job but as a lifestyle. After all, that is all she's ever been surrounded by. Blood, money, drugs, psychos, more blood and money. Blood money. All of that shit. The only problem is that the heroes disagree with her so-called 'lifestyle' and start a special task force in her name called D. O. A. Best known as the operation Dead. Or. Alive. The person specifically tasked to bring her in is none other than the great hero, Phoenix. He is best known for his smarts, good looks, and being a virtuous savior. But among people like Tempest, he is known as another overpowered, overrated hero no one can escape. Not even those blessed with super speed or teleportation can escape him. So, it should be effortless for him to catch her since she has no superhuman abilities. Except it's not. Tempest has a deadly virus no scientist, no government, no god can ever get rid of. So, when she finds out she is being hunted down by not only the hero society but the face of it, she turns to biological warfare. The few other people with the disease would never dare to do something like that, but Tempest would. If it guarantees her coming out on top, she will.
