I never learn, do I? I promised myself that I had had enough bad experiences with love and I wasn't going to fall in love again. I remember saying it with so much conviction.
How then did I fall so deeply in love with this angel? Blue has always been my favourite colour and seeing his baby blue eyes increased my love for the colour. By the end of the day, I realized that I was a goner. He had taken my heart.

Why was the doctor staring at him like that? What sort of creep was she? And wasn't she the same lady they had seen a few days ago? Was she following them? He watched the doctor smile at them, brown eyes shining under the lights. Why, she literally had stars in her eyes! And God, look at Cameron! When did he start warming up to strangers?

WINDSOR TRIPLET TWO: THE SELFLESS TRIPLET ACE VILLAN: Ah, I was only trying to help him. The media saw us together with a ring on his finger, his mistake, and now they have labeled us as engaged.

The only problem is-I've spent my entire life believing I was straight, and this little show we have to put on has me questioning a lot of things. The biggest question I have to answer comes from one drunken kiss and the way I felt when it happened. Maybe I have a few things to learn about myself. But I know one thing, loving Cade Windsor will not be a hardship. CADE WINDSOR: Ace Beckett not only told the media we were engaged, he told me it was to help shove them away from the nightmare my parents caused.

Things that would end our friendship if he ever found out, and I didn't want that. I am in love with him, and it happened completely by accident. I thought I could handle it. Then, one drunken night, he kisses me, and it changed everything for me. I want to pull away while keeping him close. My brain and heart are fighting for dominance.

I've Fallen Twice Now by Blondieiscray

I looked up into those beautiful blue eyes that made me feel like I was walking on water every time I held his gaze. He pulled me in by my hand and held me close. I rested my head on his chest as he stroked my hair trying to comfort me while the tears slide down my face. I looked back up to him and asked, "What now?" His eyes watered and said, "It's not a goodbye. I will always love you." "I know and I will always love you too, but you’re leaving for a long time Lou?" I questioned him, tears springing from eyes again. He cupped my face wiping away a couple tears and pulled me up to his lips. I jolted up from my bed looking at the buzzing alarm clock that blared the radio. 9:30 am. I was sweating and my face was glistening with tears. My covers were thrown on to the floor and my pillows disappeared to the end of my bed. I was late for my shift at Starbucks, crap. But I can't shake off that I keep having the same dream over and over again. It's been a full week now of the same thing. I don't get what it's trying to tell me. That was my last memory of my first love. But I've moved on. I'm with Cameron now. I pushed the dream out of my mind as I slide off the edge of my bed. I stumbled to my closet and got out my uniform. I washed my face, pulled my hair into a pony tail, and grabbed my keys. This was going to be a long day at work.

"Make we keep this professional then, yeah?" I nodded slowly, one hand in my pants pocket. "What?" Her brows creased. "I'll be your tutor and nothing else. Nuh need dis pan a personal level," I explained. Maybe it's for the best. And mi still a convince miself dat cause it still hurt me. Mi vex wid her... Wicked too. Cause she fuck up.

This is what I want and those are my boundaries. Respect them or find someone else fi tutor yuh, simple." I sighed, scratching my head. Mi just nuh wah di drama and foolishness.

I shrugged my shoulders. // Liam was once a bright, joyful child until something shattered his world at just nine years old. Whatever happened that year left scars too deep to see, turning smiles into silence and laughter into rage. By fifteen, he was behind bars. Now eighteen, he's out with one last shot: six months to finish high school and finally leave his past behind. He's focused. Detached. Determined to stay invisible - no fights, no friends, no drama. Then he sees her. Kazierah. His childhood crush. His first kiss. The girl he never forgot. ...the one he never stopped loving even when he wanted to. She's changed too. She had more friends and she was more social than he remembered. They never dated, never made it official, but the connection between them always ran deep... too deep to ignore now. And as old feelings resurface, so do old questions - about the past, about that day he was taken away, and about why their paths are crossing again now, after everything. Some stories never really end. They wait. And this one is just beginning.

Lost And Found (4 Shots) ✔️ by TheAshleyDaniel

"Lost Friends To Lovers" Dad told me real love happens once and when it does, never hide your feelings. Too bad, he told me late. I held them and lost her. Until I found her again. Blue-eyed, brown hair. That dimple on the right cheek, it hasn't changed much. Well, she hasn't changed much either. I can feel her body exuding the same warmth as the old times, her innocence still shining bright like it used to. This little surprise is racing my heart even when she is far from me...wait? Far? With her eyes busy finding something in her handbag, she is coming toward me. Me. Is my back erecting? What is she doing here? In a school? Is she my son's teacher? I find myself curious now. But then, she takes a seat beside me and smiles at the teacher. I can not help but wonder. Is she a parent too? Short Story

My Summer Crush by icantsmilewithouyou

Have you ever fallen in love for the first time? Well... I haven't - not until he came into my life. They say love happens when you least expect it - when your heart suddenly beats like a ticking time bomb, and you don't even know why. That's when you realize... you're in love. 💞 But what if you already felt that spark - and instead of confessing, you stayed quiet because you were scared? Scared that you're too young. Scared to ruin what's already there. Scared to lose him. Love can really be funny sometimes. Girls hide their feelings out of fear, while boys pretend not to care - because pride gets in the way. And when both stay silent, love turns into a beautiful what-if. But maybe... this story isn't just about "what-ifs." Maybe it's about destiny. Every summer, we meet again. Every time, my heart races the same way. Is it fate... or just another coincidence? I used to believe accidents were dangerous, but ever since I met him, I started to think - maybe some accidents are meant to happen. This is the story of how my summer turned into something unforgettable - the story of laughter, confusion, and a love I never meant to fall into. Will it be destiny that brings us together in the end? Find out in "Summer of Accidental Hearts." 🌸

Alien from the past. Mate for the future. by CloudDestinyAtlas

✨ Book 3 from Extraterrestrial Encounter ✨ -*- They always told me I belonged to the sky. Not because I was special or different, but because ever since I was a child, I would spend hours staring at the stars, searching for answers no adult seemed willing to give me. My name is Selen. I'm nineteen years old, and I work as a research assistant in one of the oldest observatories in the colony. I live among star maps, coordinates, and telescopes. But sometimes, when the world falls asleep and I'm left alone beneath the vault of the sky, I feel... something. An invisible gaze, warm and distant. As if the stars weren't the only ones watching me. I don't remember much from when I was a child. Just fragments: a distant roar, strong hands lifting me from the mud... Blue eyes that didn't belong to any human being. They told me I was in danger, and that someone saved me. But no one ever wanted to tell me who. And yet, tonight... as the sky opens above me and the forest whispers ancient words, I have the strange feeling I'm not alone. Maybe this time it will save me and take me to safety. -*- [ I'm still trying to figure out if this is going to be a long story or just a glimpse into how things have settled down in the near future. Maybe you can help me. If you have any idea leave a comment. ]🤔🤷 🔴 As usual beware! This story will be marked as Adult story.

Song of the Seraph - A Dark Fallen Angel Paranormal Romance by authorseraphinavale

I never asked for this. I never asked to be drawn to him, a man with the weight of centuries on his shoulders and the darkness of the world in his eyes. But now that I've found him... I can't let go. Lily's life has been nothing short of a struggle-until the night she stumbles onto Seraphiel's doorstep, drawn by a force she can't understand. He's a stranger, but something about him feels like home, like a missing piece of her soul. The more time she spends with him, the more she realizes he's no ordinary man. He's an angel-battle-worn and broken-and she's the reincarnation of someone he once loved. A love bound to a prophecy that threatens both their lives. As the connection between them deepens, so does the tension-an attraction that pulls them closer with every stolen touch, every lingering glance. The sparks between them could ignite something far darker than either of them imagined, something that may cost them their lives-or their hearts. "I don't know if I'm strong enough for this," Lily whispers, her breath hot against his skin. "But I'm willing to find out." As forces from Heaven and Hell close in, Lily must decide: Is the love she feels for him a gift... or a curse that will destroy them both? Can their love survive the darkness? Or will the prophecy tear them apart before they can claim each other completely?

Fallen Again by ThisisaBook101

While watching the movie and reading the books, a YouTube video discussing how plot twists and different character arcs could have improved the movie sparked some scenes and debates among us in the book club. So my friend and I decided to rewrite the movie with some better plot twists. This was thought of in a car after escaping an awkward dinner. Fair warning, we lost some brain cells along the way and jumped off the diving board and lost the plot. This book is an adventure that made me cry and throw my phone. Enjoy. "You are a monster, Cam," I rasped, my voice thick with loathing. The truth of it vibrated in my bones. "Perhaps," he'd conceded, a chilling smile touching his lips. "But at least I'm an honest one. And I'm willing to do what's necessary." Luce, a faint, almost imperceptible scoff escaping me. "Gabby?" I repeated, as if the idea was ludicrous. "Gabby and I aren't together. Never have been." Luce stared at me, stunned. "But... I saw her kiss you." I merely shrugged, a hint of something cynical in my eyes. "People do stupid things at parties. Doesn't mean anything." "Quite a show, Price," he said, his voice low, almost a purr. "Lucky you had Daniel to catch you, huh?" The subtle emphasis on 'Daniel' was not lost on Luce.

Rejected Flame Wolf by MemE050222

Hunter Anther was like an open book, he'd never been afraid to be his true self. Especially his sexuality. However not everything is for everyone.

But the moon goddess truly wasn't fond of him because in addition to being an outcast, he wasn't blessed with a wolf. What happens when his future Alpha, aka biggest bully and former friend turns out to be his mate. Will he accept and care for him or make him lose the last bit of hope he had? Like a saying goes 'The grass isn't always green on the other side.' *** "I didn't mean it.. I.. I was young and ignorant..." he tried to explain while clenching my hand, I looked at him in disgust and pulled my hand away. "What about me? How old wad I to deserve all the things you did to me?! Tell me, how was I different from you? Four years ago you rejected me after everything you've done to me. It wasn't enough punishment for you, you didn't even spare me a glance after ruining me. You left me, you are not gay." My voice trembled bit at the end but my face remained as emotionless as ever. I will never give him the satisfaction of seeing me vulnerable, not again. But why does my heart feel like it's bleeding? Shouldn't I be hating him and happy that he's on his knees begging me. So why am I tearing along with him? **** 25/02/24 - 9/08/24 **** A/N How many of us believe in second chances? Does love really conquer it all? This is not a 'love is blind' story, if you're looking for one.
