Jen's the kind of girl who keeps her head down and gets things done. She got her work ethic from her dad and her stubborn streak from her mom..two people currently going through a messy divorce.
Living alone and trying to keep her life together, Jen works the night shift at a quiet convenience store off the highway.
It's not glamorous, but the pay is good and the routine is simple: show up at 10 PM, leave at 6 AM, attend to a few late night wanderers, and try not to think too much.
She's closer to her dad, but she sees both sides. She's stuck in between--- watching her family fall apart while pretending that everything's fine.
And it was fine. The late nights, the half empty store, the flickering lights
it all became her new normal.
Until one night.
One shift.
One strange customer.
And nothing is ever the same again.

I've Become Like Him
"Ahhh!!!" The man's body falls to the floor limp and I fall to the floor out of terror, "Why are you screaming? I saved you from being raped." I look at the man who is holding a gun with a little smile on his face. He holds the gun up to my head and I start crying, "P-Please, p-please don't do this. I-I won't tell anybody." He bends down and I whimper, "I don't think I can let you go. What happened you run and tell in the next three days? You've already seen my face and heard my voice." I shake my head, "I swear I won't tell anybody! I-I don't know anybody!" He looks at me up and down, "I'll give you two choices. I kill you now or you come with me. You can keep me entertained for a while." €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€ Lyric Dime is a twenty-one year old loner who works in a top tier casino.

How To Attract A Serial Killer
When a mysterious killer started wiping out the city's prettiest, meanest, most scandalous girls, Eleo thinks she's safe. She's none of those things. She's just a clumsy, overworked college student with zero dating experience. That is, until she does something spectacularly dumb that inevitably put her in his path. Now, instead of living her quiet, peaceful life, she's dealing with: • A ridiculously good-looking serial killer who won't leave her alone. • Death threats that sound suspiciously flirty. And, Eleo's got two options: 1. Find out who the killer is before he "accidentally" falls in love with her. 2. Die. ...And dying sounds 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 inconvenient. 🚨 Not a tutorial. Do NOT attempt.Complete
Psychological Desires
He kills to cleanse the filth-the ones the world already gave up on. But then he sees her-innocent, untouched, untainted. The world hasn't ruined her yet, and he won't let it. The only way to protect her... is to take her. She was supposed to die. But she didn't. Because something in her soft eyes and steady voice reaches the part of him that still remembers what it meant to feel. And she-terrified, yet unyielding-sees through his darkness. She promises to show him another way to live. While they dance a delicate line between ruin and redemption, the FBI hunts him, closing in with every chapter. When they finally catch up, nothing prepares them-or her-for the tragic, haunting end. This isn't a love story. It's a psychological desire. And it always ends in blood.![JENNIFER [EN]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/403350101-256-k422072.jpg)
