Vana was the queen of highschool - not because she was kind or brilliant, but because she could be crueler than anyone else. Money oiled every door open for her, and the world inside the ivy-covered walls of the school was hers to command.
Everyone knew their place: the powerful ruled, the rich flaunted, and the weak survived only if they kept their heads down.
Vana loved it that way. She loved how easy it was to spot someone who didn't belong - the ones who flinched when she smiled too sweetly, the ones who stammered when she leaned in close just to whisper something sharp and cutting into their ears.
When Leo came to school, he didn't belong. Everyone could see it: the simple clothes, the calloused hands, the scholarship papers that practically screamed charity case. Vana hated him on sight. Hated the way he stood up straighter than the rest, hated the calm in his eyes, hated that he made it so difficult - so unsatisfying - to get a reaction from him.
But no matter what she did - the comments, the humiliation, the cold, calculated pranks - Leo never reacted.
No anger.
No fear.
No cracks in the armor.
And for the first time in her charmed, brutal life, Vana found herself caught on a hook she didn't know how to escape from.
What happens when the girl who feels nothing finally meets someone who refuses to break?

The Bad Boy And The Badass (Completed)
"You don't seem like a nerd so what are you?" He asked raising an eyebrow as he eyed my black rimmed glasses, thick woollen jersey and ratted converses. I crossed my arms and did the same to him. "You don't seem like a bad boy that actually turns out to be gay but we are all mistaken sometimes." I replied watching as he stepped closer making my back press against the wall. "Your only a little mistaken, I am the schools bad boy but i most definitely am not gay," he whispered in my ear causing me to shiver. "What are you?" he continued slowly. I leaned up so that my lips were brushing against his cheek, smirking as I watched him gulp. "Well none of yours is right because I'm definitely not a nerd, I'm just a girl in disguise." With that I side stepped his arms and skipped down the hallway, only pausing when i reached the class room door. I looked over my shoulder sending him a wink when i noticed that he was still watching me. Things just got a whole lot better. _________________________________________________________________________________________ Lexi Dylan's is the badass the whole world knows but when she's forced to move, she decides to get revenge.

Black & White
A story, in which a typical teenage girl falls for the school's bad boy. Except, she's not that typical and he's not that much of a bad boy. *** "If I told you that I care about you, more than anyone in your life does, would you believe me?" He asked me, his jaw clenched. I could tell he was furious. Yet somehow, I wasn't scared of him. "No" I shook my head bravely. "If I told you,'' He tried again, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath before continuing.''That you make me so fucking mad, I want to punch a fucking wall. What would you say?" He had me trapped now, my back painfully colliding with the wall behind me. I gasped at the impact, looking up into his icy grey eyes. They were cold, emotionless. As always. "Do it!" I dared him with the last ounce of courage I had left in me. The sound of his fist smashing through the wall right next to my head, made my ears ring for a brief moment. I opened my mouth to speak again, shaking slightly, only for him to pull away and leave me standing there alone. ____ !!Warning!!

The Handsome three ( COMPLETED)
"Hey! She already said she was sorry. What more do you want?!" I screamed loudly in his face. His face turned from angry to shocked. No one had ever yelled at him that way at school before. He narrowed his eyes at me."She ruined a very expensive shirt so she needs to be punished for it," he responded, his green eyes lit with hate and anger. "So?! You probably have a million other shirts just like it. You spoiled rich boys have no respect for others. You think you're better than everyone else. Well, let me tell you, you are the worst of the worst." I said. I couldn't believe what I had just said. I realized I had given myself a death sentence as the words flew out my mouth. Duke was quiet for a few moments then he finally replied. "You better watch what you say girly," he said as he brushed past my shoulder. His two buddies following him from behind.

I bit my tongue, regretting that remark. "The other girls can't possibly compare to my pretty girl." He ignores the question, his eyes scanning my face for any signs of a reaction to his charm. "My lovely.." He pulled my arm towards him. I felt a slow kiss on the back of my hand. "Sweet.." then another on the other hand. "-golden heart girl." He looked up through his eyelashes. I stay silent as I looked around the room, avoiding eye contact. He placed his free hand on my waist, the other still holding my hand. "Shall I call them over while I have you bent over this bed?" He says planting a kiss on my stomach, going lower each time. I run my free hand through the back of his hair, gently pulling his head back slightly, forcing him to look back up at me. He had a dangerously evil smile on. I knew my cheeks were going red, I pushed him away and rushed towards the the door. "You always do this." I mumble quietly, trying to catch my breath which I lost in the heat of the moment. "Would you be lying to me if you said you didn't like it?" He replied, walking over to me. I kept my mouth shut. ~ ~ ~ Most confusing Love V/ triangle trope you'll ever find¡¡ Sequels out!¡ !!Inspiration from Nikkireadw!!Complete
Opposites Could Attract (Ongoing)
Vanessa arrives at her new school with hope in her heart. She's determined to smile, to make friends, and to finally escape the loneliness that haunted her at her last home. But almost immediately, she's branded "weird." The kids mock her smiles, twist her kindness into something laughable, and, before long, the bullying escalates into something darker. Every single day, Vanessa is cornered, beaten, and reminded she doesn't belong. One hundred days of abuse. One hundred days of silence. One hundred days of pain. No one helps her. No one even tries. Except Max. Max is the boy no one dares to approach-gloomy, detached, and frightening when provoked. Everyone knows he wants to be left alone. He sleeps through class, kicks over tables when bothered, and keeps everyone at arm's length with his sharp tongue. But Vanessa sees something different. On her very first day, when other kids mock her, he tells them to shut up-even though he swears he doesn't care. When she thanks him, he grabs her shirt, growls at her to leave him alone, and warns her he isn't anyone's friend. But when she lays her head next to his anyway, smiling through the fear, Max doesn't push her away. Then comes the day her bullies go too far. A knife. A cornered victim. Vanessa, ready to give up, finally whispers to herself that no one cares. That she's truly alone. But she isn't. Max appears. In front of everyone, he catches the blade meant for her, throws off his shirt to reveal a body scarred by pain far beyond schoolyard fights, and with ruthless efficiency, he destroys her tormentors. They scatter, terrified. And for the first time, Vanessa sees the truth: beneath his gloom, Max does care. He tells her plainly, "You watered the flowers every day so they didn't die. I want to be that water to you, the flower." From that moment, their bond is sealed. But their world isn't kind.

Bite Me ✔
《 Highest Ranking: #5 in Vampire 》 "Is that Marcus? Marcus as in, from our High School Marcus!" Casey squeaked. I spun around, not quite believing her, but there he was. He strode through the school like he owned it and my god, he could've. He'd changed over the four years he'd been gone. It was like god himself had carved him from a statue. His cheekbones could cut a finger and a jaw that could slice a hand. He was taller, more muscular. He looked nothing like the boy that went away. He wore a blacket jacket and ripped jeans, his grey eyes studied the school as every female studied him. Suddenly, they slipped past every other person's eyes and landed on mine. No surprise etched his face, it was like he didn't recognise me. Until I saw the corner of his mouth lift up. ~~ Best friends, Diana and Marcus planned to do everything together. They would go to college and live in the same dorm room, they would always be best friends. But, Marcus went away. Without expecting him to return, Diana uses her heartbreak to change her life. She becomes popular in college.. Then one day, he shows up. But he's changed, he's darker, more silent and definitely a lot more hotter. He'd grown taller, his face sharper and he drew eyes from every woman on campus, even the guys. He spoke to no one and didn't even acknowledge her until she spoke to him. But something was very off. Very off, indeed. Cover Design: @newsies- Copyright @tavanalee No Rights Reserved 2018Complete
