The Red Thread
In a world of masks, the most dangerous thing is to be seen. Ivy was born to disappear - trained as a weapon, perfected as a lie. Elegant, ruthless, and untouchable, she's spent her life behind silk veils and sharp smiles. When her mother forces her into a masked ball deep within the heart of society's elite, Ivy is meant to be a distraction. A pawn. Instead, she becomes the spark. Tom Kaulitz is everything Ivy despises - flirty, charming, silver-tongued. He dances like he knows he's being watched and fights like he doesn't care who's looking. Assigned as Ivy's partner, he's a complication she can't afford. But he sees her. The parts no one is supposed to. As secrets tangle and rehearsals turn into rituals, Ivy finds herself caught between the mission she was raised for and the boy who keeps stepping too close. What begins as a game of stolen glances and whispered threats spirals into something far more dangerous - betrayal, bloodshed, and a love Ivy never believed she could want. Because the ball is only the beginning. And once the mask comes off, there's no going back.Complete
Childhood Sweethearts
#1 Teen Fiction | #1 Young Adult | #1 Romance "We all need someone to drive us mad." - The Wombats. He stared arrogantly down at me, a smirk plastered across his face. I sneered up at him with distaste, wanting to wrap my fingers around his neck and strangle that smirk off of him. He brushed my golden hair from my face, his long, slender fingers sparking electricity in my skin, making my knees wobble together. "Will you ever, forgive me?" he whispered huskily, his eyes intently staring into mine. His face was only mere inches from me. I just needed to reach out a little further to kiss him... "Yeah. Over my dead body." I snapped, before throwing my arms out forcefully, shoving my hands into his chest, pushing him from me. -*-*-*- He, is Carter Williams. I, am Lacey Adams. We were once, inseparable. The 'Golden Couple'. The unbreakable best friends, that everybody envied. Nothing could get between us. A part from being tighter than white on rice, we updated our status from friends to being in a relationship, frequently. We were neighbours, which meant our families were all close and even co-owned houses around our town. This, all is, until the day of my sixteenth birthday. Everything changed. The loving relationship we shared, was severed and torn apart. I couldn't hardly stand to look at him any more, without spitting fire that is. Every day is torture being around him. He was in all my classes at school and the window in my room was even directly aligned with his. So, what happens? My mother's mum gets sick, so dad and her fly out. Just them. Leaving me to stay with Carter and his parents, who are never home. We would be alone. In one house. Under the same roof. If I was insane before, I have no idea what I am now. © 2016 by LaurenJ22.
