Kelsey is a high-powered defense attorney with a soft spot for bad boys and even worse judgment. When Kai, a 17-year-old with a murder rap, ends up in her courtroom-and in her thoughts-she finds herself spiraling into a case that's more personal than legal.

The deeper she digs, the more she realizes:
This ain't just about justice...
It's about survival.

Whispers in the courtroom. Crime scene tape turning into handcuffs. Passion tangled with pressure.
And just when she thinks she's saving him,
She might be the one who needs saving.

But with enemies in suits, bullets wrapped in silence, and love growing in the darkest places, one question remains:
Can she prove his innocence before her own guilt destroys them both?

Unspoken ▹ Teen Wolf [01] by insatiabIe

❝Contrary to the popular belief, there's a very thin & fragile line between saying too much, and saying too little. More often than not, you'll find yourself unable to balance on that line & tipping to one side or the other, before inevitable falling. Whether or not there will be something there to catch you, that depends on how much was left unspoken.❞ There are things in life that we swear we'll never do. Some people pledge never to lie, others promise never to tell a secret; but of course, with a little time & persuasion, doing the action they vowed never to do is inevitable. Nearly everyone has made promises with a genuine sincerity in their hearts, only to later go & smash their promise to fragments with a sledgehammer- it's just what people do. No matter how hard they try & resist, if the thought remains bubbling in their mind for long enough, it's bound to boil over eventually Rachel Hale wanted to stay true to her promise. She swore she'd never go back to Beacon Hills after a fire killed nearly all of her family, yet when one of her two surviving siblings was brutally murdered within the confines of the town, she couldn't help herself; not after the arsonist who burned her life to the ground walked free. Alongside her older brother, Rachel went back to the damned town, & almost instantly fell head over heels into chaos- and took a whole lot of people with her. Before she even knew what hit her, she was fighting not only for her own life, but for the innocent people who didn't belong in a supernatural world like hers; innocent people she began to care more about than she was willing to admit. Unfortunately, for someone like Rachel who knows just how quickly everything she loves can be destroyed in a town like Beacon Hills, caring may turn out to be her biggest mistake.

His mistress by white-scar

Loving him was the cruelest kind of torment-a love that lived in the shadows, one that could never bask in the warmth of the sun. I was nothing more than a stolen moment, a whispered name in the dark, a secret he tucked away between the life he had built and the one he wished he could have. I knew, deep down, that I was a fracture in his story, a fleeting escape from the weight of his reality. And yet, I still clung to him, to the illusion that for a few precious hours, he was mine. But the truth was relentless-it came in the form of unanswered texts, in the way he dressed hurriedly after loving me, in the way he said her name with the same tenderness he once gave me. I had given him my heart, knowing he would never be able to keep it, and yet, I loved him still. Loved him as I watched him walk away, loved him as he returned to the arms of the woman he truly belonged to, loved him as I drowned in the loneliness he left behind. Because no matter how much I wished it to be different, I was not his home-I was just a place he visited before going back to where his heart truly lived.

The Price of Innocence by TshepisoTsona4

"Some ghosts don't haunt to scare you. They haunt to remind you what you lost." Thandi's innocence echoed in every memory she shared with her sister. She's accepted the truth - her sister is gone, and nothing can change that. But everything shatters the moment she sees her again. Alive. Smiling. Real. Now caught between the sister she loves and the man she's come to care for, Thandi must make an impossible choice - one that will teach her that even innocence comes with a price. In a world of power, secrets, and ruthless ambition, every choice has consequences. Loyalties will be tested, hearts will be broken, and betrayal lurks in the most unexpected places. Survival is only the beginning; when nothing is as it seems, even the purest hearts cast the darkest shadows.

Pointed Gun by SincerelyU

Have you ever seen a play? Watching actors parade around a stage reciting made up lines to entertain an audience, or walk away in tears when the boos and hurtful comments came flying at their sometimes horrible performance. Have you ever experienced what it felt like to be vulnerable and alone? Without a sole propose or clue of who you are or what you're supposed to be? Well congratulations, you're in one. ******* In this twisted life bred on loyalty, blood, and betrayal, There was no way Syncear could say what was really going on in her sane life turned insane. Not knowing the worth until she was forced to pay the ultimate price whether she wanted to, or not. The good. The bad, all wrapped up into one huge lie, that no one could ever tell the difference. And the only way for Boston to keep from getting hurt--or losing his head--, he had to force his own hand. Breaking glass to sabotage those he didn't trust. Who he thought was on his side from the very beginning, proved him wrong. Terribly wrong. And Those whom he believed to be against him, taught him one hell of a valuable lesson. Taking a moment to reconsider his 'family' was the smartest thing he could ever do. Through the storms of blood and jealousy, everything became crystal. Deeply hidden secrets brung up from the grave, and with many others better off that way, they finally opened the eyes of the mind and saw what life was actually filled with and just how toxic and evil it really was. #30 in Mysterious #166 in Criminal #64 in criminal. 6/23/18 #32 in criminal. 6/24/18 #25 in criminal. 6/25/18 #21 in criminal. 6/30/18 #14 in criminal. 7/8/18 ⚠WARNING⚠: Story contains very strong language throughout, Mild Violence, and occasional graphical scenes.
