She is Fatal to Death (Standalone Story) by writeraliciagonzalez
50 parts Complete
She's dead by the third chapter. Okay, it's a bit more complicated than that. Okay, it's A LOT more complicated than that. Renata wants nothing more than to pay her bills through her mildly boring office job and figure out whether she is still in love with her best friend. The latter half of that desire is just a sneak peak into her messy life-and it's only getting messier. Considering the paranormal world she is about to dive head first into, she will come to realize that figuring out her heart may just be the easiest part of this journey. Well, the endless supply of supernatural hotness in this story may beg to differ-but that's besides the point. Either way, it's gonna be a killer time ;) EXCERPT Chicken tacos it is. Right as Renata grabbed the ingredients, she turned to put them next to the stove, where a clean, plastic cutting board awaited. But as she moved, she was confronted by a stranger, an intruder, standing mere inches from her. Before she could scream, he was on her, slamming her against the fridge. Her back flashed with sharp pain. Her eyes pricked with fear as she drank in his uncovered face. Deeply tanned skin. Ruby red eyes-ruby red eyes? Thick, slashing eyebrows. Flat, broad nose. Buzzcut. Handsome. That was as far as she would go in complimenting him considering this guy held a knife to her throat. When he spoke, his voice came out like thunder. It held a thousand threats and a thousand secrets. It held promise of pain if provoked. "If you scream," he warned, mouth pulled in a slight snarl, "this ends quickly." She didn't dare nod against the blade. He noticed and amusement lit up for just a second in those devilish eyes. Oh, whoever the fuck this was, she already hated him. Considering her predicament, panic was the most prominent emotion coursing through her at the moment. "Good." He removed his hand "Now you're going to answer my questions." °°MATURE AND EXPLICIT CONTENT OF ALL KINDS, AND I MEAN ALL KINDS°

Do you know what to do with your life? Do you know how to make the best of it an live every second to the fullest? Do you know how to follow your dreams? Well, neither does Chloe Williams. But when her lack of motivation towards her college career causes her parents to cut her off and she is forced to find a job, a series of events are set in motion that don't give her much room to procrastinate her life anymore. She now has to figure out wether she is okay with everything that is happening or not. Oh, and she meets people with secrets. Are you intrigued? Great! Chloe certainly wasn't. She just wanted to stay in bed and hide today. ____ Here a little excerpt: "Oh God. They were here. The worst case scenario had come true. To make the situation even worse, the man standing right across from us, blocking our direct route to the exit, pointed a gun right at us. When he spotted Paul Herford he grinned. „He is here!", he said in a very slimy tone. „Grab him!" " _______ I n case you haven't noticed, „The Chloenicles" are a pun on Chloe and Chronicles. I have no regrets. ____
