Will Astrid's investigation determine who her friends really are-and where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes fascinating, sometimes infuriating boy fits into the life she's chosen? Or will her secrets eventually catch up to her and cost her everything she ever cared about? *Credit to Startedraining on DeviantArt who created the art on this book cover.

Lucky! by Emrys_Noah

Quote Things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end, if not always in the way we expect. Now where to begin? I'm Enid Lloyd. I have a sister and two loving parents, note my sarcasm.

But when she finds the young woman not so eager to return home, will she be willing to stay and join her in this strange world with their ludicrous marriage customs?

Beyond the Deep Water by IvetteMartinez01

CLOSE YOUR EYES AND IMAGINE THIS WORLD. Gods are created by a mighty force, a force to balance the universe, every galaxy, world, and life. **** Camille tastes the blood on her lips. She's nauseous and weak; still, she forces her brain to stay awake. Ignoring the pain of reopening old injuries. There are more bruises she can't hide, more pain to bear, but she's finally tired to do it in silence. She wipes the humiliating tears off her face. "Don't you dare touch me again." she defies the monster. "I don't even think God is on your side," he says with a reeking smell of alcohol. At the same time, a loud thunder with the brightest lightning illuminates the sky, the rain pours heavily A tall man elegantly walks forward, evidently upset he glances at the girl with the corner of his beautiful crystal blue eyes, tearing apart the man who has dared to put his hands on the girl he's been trying to protect. "A leech like you would never understand the depths of my trust for this girl." The God of Water stands behind her, like a bodyguard. "Giving up has never been an option for you, perhaps taking the garbage out of your way can help you find your freedom." The mysterious man says. Just as he finishes his sentence, a bolt of lightning strikes loudly in the sky. He turns to face the monster as he freezes in shock, He knows, this time he won't be forgiven.

His Love, Her Mystery by Lavender6702

"Can we meet?" Yukti asked, her voice barely above a whisper. There was a pause. "Now?" "Yes." "I'll be there in ten minutes." And exactly ten minutes later, her doorbell rang. Yukti took a deep breath before opening the door. "Yukti, what is it?" Yuvraj asked, slightly out of breath, concern flashing in his eyes. She didn't reply, just stepped back and gestured for him to come in. As soon as he did, she closed the door and before he could say anything-she hugged him from behind. Yuvraj froze. "Yukti?" His voice was gentle, but when he heard the small, muffled sob, his entire body tensed. "Yukti..." The sobbing grew louder. Then, she broke. Her grip on him tightened as she cried-really cried. Her sobs echoed in the silent room, her body trembling against his back. Yuvraj felt something sting in his chest. He slowly turned around, and the sight made his heart clench. Yukti's face was stained with tears, her eyes swollen, her lips quivering. "What happened?" Yuvraj whispered, brushing away the tears on her cheeks. Wanna know what the reason was?🤔 Try reading it... you won't regret 🌷🩷
