His Obsession || Book One
(COMPLETED) BOOK TRAILER IN CHAP. 1!!! I had just turned 19 and was about to graduate high school, entering into an amazing university. Surrounded by plenty of friends, I had such a bright future ahead of me. Everything changed when I met the devil named Eric. Disguised as an angel, I was pulled into his dangerous world. Eric was one of the most deadly, viperous, and wicked mafia leaders. His name haunted his victims heads. He was every bit of dangerous as beautiful, someone so perfect only existed in my wildest dreams. He was everything a girl could ask for. Or so he perceived it to be. . . Blinded from the start in his ethereal world, soon I realize that it was all merely just a mask. And what lies beneath the mask, was far more sinister. *** WARNING: This story contains violence and mature scenes. Read at your own risk. *** I pulled away, with some difficulty from his tight hold. "I need to go, I can't stay." It didn't change anything for him, he continued to kiss my neck as if I had never spoken. That's when his hand slipped underneath my volleyball spandex. I gasped out, covering my mouth as I shut my eyes. "I know you want to stay, so stay. I'll make you feel better than any high school guy ever could." Eric sexily purred in my ear. His fingers found the weakness between my legs, and my hands clamped onto the back of his neck as his kisses nuzzled on my neck. I leaned my head back, taking in sharp breaths as his fingers felt inside me. He was so good at everything he did, I was learning from what seemed a professional. After taking another brief look at the clock, I decided to take the risk. After all, an adventure is much more fun when it's dangerous. Or so I'm hoping, I never really had the guts to do anything mischievous before. *** #1 in Romance 7/22/18 His Obsession. Copyright © 2018. All Rights Reserved.Complete

Becoming The Third
Prologue The darkness of the past loomed over her like a shadow, a constant reminder of the pain and suffering she had endured. Her mother's tears, her father's abuse, the toxic cycle of violence that had defined her childhood - it was a legacy she had vowed to break, but one that continued to haunt her. As she stood in the silence of her room, the memories came flooding back. The sound of her mother's sobs, the smell of her father's anger, the feeling of being trapped in a world that seemed determined to consume her. She had thought that she had escaped, that she had found a way to break free from the chains of her past. But the truth was, she was still trapped. Trapped in a cycle of abuse, trapped in a relationship that was slowly draining the life from her. She looked at herself in the mirror, and saw a reflection that was both familiar and foreign. The bruises on her lip, the fear in her eyes - it was a sight she had grown accustomed to, but one that still filled her with a deep sadness. She knew that she deserved better, that she was worth more than the pain and suffering she had endured. But the question was, would she ever be able to find the strength to walk away, to leave the past behind and forge a new future? The answer, she knew, lay in the unknown. It was a journey she would have to take, one step at a time, one breath at a time. And as she stood there, frozen in the silence of her room, she knew that she would have to find the courage to take that first step, no matter how daunting it seemed.Complete
