Love and Revenge (Complete)
Annie Bloom is an average girl. She's in college, has a best friend, works, and studies. Yet one day she finds herself attacked, hospitalized, and nearly killed. Her best friend, Will, is certain it has to do with the guy she just started dating. Is Will jealous? Could her new boyfriend be involved? Or is it someone else entirely? Annie must find out quickly because every day could be her last. *** I could feel nothing but the pain. I felt every hit in excruciating detail with each erratic, painful heartbeat as my world became reduced to a series of agony. I struggled to breath through the broken ribs that constricted my airflow like a two-ton concrete slab had fallen on me. The blood from the blows to my head rolled down my face in waves. My arm was twisted at an impossible angle, yet I couldn't scream because my mouth would not open. I could feel the kicks coming at me from all directions, and as I received another one to the head I knew this was the end for me and my heartbeat slowed. The stab wound was bleeding too much for me to survive. When they left me for dead my eyes began to droop and the last thing I saw through fuzzy tunnel-like sight was a man running towards me before one final rattling breath coursed through my broken body and my heart stopped beating.Concluida
Graffiti Boy
"Ouch, my self-esteem. You really know how to hurt a man." "You're barely a man. You're like twelve." "On a scale of one to ten? How sweet!" I stopped walking, causing him to come to an abrupt stop a mere inch behind me, "What the hell do you want?" "You." ~ VALERIE LOCKHART. Sassy, sarcastic, sweet and obsessed with avocados. Her past was horrible. Her mother was murdered. No thrill. Until she met him. ELIJAH HASTAWAY. Flirtatious, caring and ridiculously attractive. His past was horrible. He lost everything. No love.

The Funny One Dies First
Roses are red Violets are blue What if the killer was someone you knew? Have you ever notice in horror and mystery/thrillers movies that the funny characters die first? Why is that? Well, it is because when the funny one dies, everything is real. The light, happy mood they create when they are alive makes everything nice and relaxed, so when they die, it sets the dark mood of dread and fear. This isn't you basic "horror" story where the characters want to split up and the minority dies. No, this is far from that. Sure there may be some funny moments and some funny characters but this time, there's a twist. This time, you already know who the killer is.
