The rain beats against my small frame as I grip the handle of the shovel, trying not to lose my grip as I dig. They can't find this, not ever, I won't let them.I continue to dig, almost losing my balance as a strong gust of wind almost knocks me over.
"Come on, just a little more."
Just as I finally get deep enough when I plant my shovel into the ground instead more mud it pings off of something.
"What the..."
I crouch down and wipe a bit of mud away from the bottom of the hole I dug.
"Holy shit....."
Looking up at me with unseeing eyes is a boy in a glass box.

The experiment.
They used my vulnerability against me. They used that weapon, to make me accept their stupid idea. And I of course, accepted it, I didn't even know what they were going to do.

Possessive Rich Bully
[WARNING - EXPLICIT CONTENT] I pulled my elbow from his death grip. "You're ashamed of me. Admit it. You hate the idea of been seen with me." I shot venomous accusations his way. He didn't look at me. I'd rejected his kiss, pushed him away from and in return he'd turned cold and cruel, again. He'd shown nothing but hatred for me in public yet held me with aching tenderness when it was just us. I was sick of his games. He needed to decide whether he wanted me or not. "You parade new girls daily in front of my eyes," a sob escaped my throat. "And don't even deny you don't occasionally screw Charlotte behind my back." His ice blue eyes pierced my soul with his sharp gaze. He was teetering on the verge of lashing out on me. "How would you feel if I did the same to you, huh?" I pushed at his stiff chest. "Had several boyfriends, invited them to our home." His eyes cut to me, and a look darker than I've ever seen clouded his features I gestured to our grandiose home bought by his dizzying wealth. "And parade them right in front--" Before I knew it, I was face down and nearly suffocated by the soft material of our couch, I barely noticed my skirt pushed upwards and panties shoved aside. "You're my goddamn wife, Astoria. I will not tolerate your defiance." The sound of his belt loosening, zipper lowering, he entered me violently taking my breath with him. "Yet everyone thinks I'm still your charity case because you won't claim me." "You want to be claimed? Fine. But I am warning you, this lifestyle you're so accustomed to will be gone. I will be dirt poor and your family will be fired." "Then divorce and set me free. I am done being your dirty secret." Axel Trent, the spoiled prince always got whatever he wished for, and I was one of the thing he had wished to possess. Our fate were meant to collide in the cruelest way possible. It left me shattered. THIS IS A TOXIC ROMANCE BOOK. DON'T EXPECT HEART AND FLOWERS cover by IvvyKyComplete
The Finding Project
"All hail Mother Earth. For she is the bringer of all life and the keeper of all souls, to her and only to her, we pray. And now, we pray, that our sacrifice of this young boy will appease her weighty appetite." From behind the carved stone wall, I heard the high priest unsheath the knife, its jagged edge scraping across the metal of the hilt. My knuckles were white as I stared in terror at the cold steel edge, hovering inches above Cal, who was screaming and struggling wildly. "HAIL EARTH DIVINE!" The cult chanted, before the deadly serrated knife plunged through the air. --- Plot Summary: At first, it was small. Animals started to disappear. Birds, plucked out of the air and sent plummeting to the ground by a stray wind. Dogs, falling through weak patches in the dusty ground by accident. No one thought anything of it. Then, the first human disappeared. They said it was a sinkhole, a crack in the earth that ripped through the ground in a split second. Mrs. Baker, my third grade teacher, was the first to go. Edwin Jones from school was next. All over town, the sinkholes popped up, swallowing screaming people whole as they plummeted towards the ground. Something had to have caused this. I was always invested in science, I knew this wasn't just a freak of nature. I knew. The only problem was, other people knew too.Complete
Snowflakes (Jack Frost x Reader)
*HIGHEST RANKING: #1 in Jack Frost and #3 in snowflakes** "Who are you, and why the heck are you in my house?!" You ask the boy, pointing your hairbrush at him. Like a hairbrush will do anything, right? The boy didn't seem to be armed with any weapons, but he did carry a wooden staff that hooked at the end. You eyed him carefully. But the boy was taken aback. "You can see me?!" He asked, almost in disbelief. You raised an eyebrow, "..Yes?.. You're not exactly hiding very well if this is hide n' seek," you stated back at him. "She can see me.." he said to himself, almost in shock, and then his face broke into an endless smile, "She can see me!" The boy did a backflip, which you admitted was impressive because you can't even do a cartwheel, and he landed back on his bare feet. "Sorry to interrupt this.. reunion you're having with yourself but, am I not supposed to see you, or?..." You trail off, but he understood you perfectly, almost as if he's gotten this question before before. You still had your guard up. "Okay, so I'm not exactly.. Human.. or alive.. Well I'm here but I'm not alive because I'm a Winter spirit. I make winter!" He stated. You both stared at each other for a minute or two in complete silence. Then you blinked. Twice even. "Uh.. What? A winter spirit?" He nodded, "Oh, like Jack Frost?" He smirked, and almost started laughing as he crossed his arms, "Snowflake, I am Jack Frost," ~*~ Y/n has had a troubled past, starting with her family passing away and having no friends, she lives alone in her house as a 16 year old girl.

"I wanna see it before I give up a grand," Heaven said and sat on Ricki's lap. I swear they been fucking around since we were little. It didn't bother me cause they weren't blood related.

Torches
I look up into his dark blue eyes. My palms are sweaty; my mind is spiraling. I want to ask. I just don't know how. "Ask." he whispers breaking into my thoughts. I take a deep breath.
