"And at a certain point, there is a limit to how much grieving the human heart can do. A limit to the suffering one can endure."
----

  President Thomas Clayton is arguably the most controversial president of the century; a conservative republican hated by much of his own party. Bella Burnett is also hated by much of his party, but for far different reasons.

  But if there is one thing they have in common; it is that they both have far too many skeletons in their closets. Skeletons that, if revealed- would change the American political landscape forever.

Hades Hellraisers | 18+ by addi_gurl
9 parts Ongoing Mature
Aspen was running from her life for her life. She was running to escape the clutches of control when she met Steve, nearly sending them both to the hospital from a crash. It was a chance of fate, Steve meeting her, because the president of the Hades Hellraisers had a code, and protecting women was a part of it. He took pity, helped her out, and got her to safety. Nothing more was to come of it. Except there was a magnetic pull neither of them was prepared for, and neither of them was trying to fight it. All is fair in love and war, especially when that war is between an angel of a girl and a devil of a man. But they say love conquers all, will that be true for people of different lives? *This is a dark contemporary romance, please read at your own discretion. There will be foul language, illegal activity, and overall dark topics. I am not responsible for your media consumption, but if you choose to continue, I hope you enjoy Hades Hellraisers.*
The Enchantress | COMPLETE | AbhiGya Fiction by Iv_Roo
18 parts Complete Mature
A re-imagination of AbhiGya's star crossed love story in an alternate universe; meaning this story has no connection with the show, barring the characters, that are borrowed from there. I advise all my readers to be ready for a head snapping, jaw dropping scandalous affair within a family. These character have questionable morals, they are dark and in some cases may come across as sheer villains; there will be a hundred questions in your mind with each unfolding chapter, but trust me you will find all answers too. It is a pot boiler that will make you question so many things, it will muddle your sense of judgement and push you to think with an open non-judgmental mind. Lastly, let me tell you it is not a read for conservative folks, so if you're conservative and curious to read, please consider yourself warned. Feedback/opinions are always welcome, however character bashing is not! ;) Lastly, you can love them, you can hate them, but you cannot ignore the scandal that will unfold.

Colette: My boyfriend Zac thinks I accidentally crushed on him with a steaming cup of coffee which lead to our many chance encounters that made him realize that I was the perfect girl for him. But in reality, I stalked him for months, paid a guy to trick his high school sweetheart to cheat on him, created our encounters and pretended to be the girl he would fall for. This illusion of love as a means to an end, but somewhere while creating this pretense I fell for him. In a perfect world, I could come clean and expect him to forgive me. But this world is f*cked up and I have to continue this ruse. I am too deep in it now to turn back. My final trap is set and I hope he falls for it hook, line, and sinker. Zachary: I am not sure if I should be inspired by her schemes or laugh at her stupidity. It's naive of her to think she can manipulate me. Me, the soon to be a pro footballer who signed a multi million-dollar contract. Me, the son of the Senate who is running for president next term. Me, the grandson and heir of the automobile giant.

I am yet to figure it out. It's not money because Col is the daughter of a billionaire herself. I thought it might be the social status that comes from dating me but she didn't want to go to any parties or social events I asked her to accompany me. Anyway, I am watching her cautiously and it's only a matter of time that I will catch her red-handed in whatever game she is playing. I will make her regret that she dared to cross path with me.
