Hey guys, I'm gonna try to complete this story(unlike my other one). I'm aiming this one to be only twenty to thirty chapters long. I'll try to update weekly and at a constant rate. The two main characters are James Baker and Lillith Peters, both in college. But anyways, go ahead and read the rest of this description, if you want.

"James Baker! Great to see you here again. Let's hope you don't cause too much of a commotion this year, Mr. Baker." The professor informs. Everyone here knows me as the troublemaker, the player, the smoker, the dealer- I could go on, but that would take up my time.
"I'll be a pain in the ass just for you, Dr. Wink." I say as I go to sit in my normal seat near the back but I find a girl sitting there. She must be a freshman if she's sitting in my seat, everyone here knows that I sit in that exact seat.
"What do you think you're doing, sitting in my seat? Go find another seat, peasant." I rudely say to the unknown being in my chair. She's attracting attention already and I smirk. More attention means more humiliation. She doesn't move a muscle. I notice she has earbuds in, so I reach down and tug them out of her ears.
"Ouch! A tap on the shoulder would've gotten my attention!" Peasant exclaims. She doesn't look up until after getting her earbuds in hand, and I'm already staring at her. She has that oh-shit-what-have-I-done look in nearly a second she makes eye contact with me.
"Oh my God, I'm so sorry. I should've asked if this was someone's seat before I sat down. Oh my God-" She rambles on.
"Shut the fuck up and go find a different seat, Peasant." I say spit at her and she hurries off quicker than I would've imagined she could. I smirk proudly and sit down in my seat. I give a couple of other people some nasty looks so they know I'm in control. Some nod and look away, some just keep staring.
I can already tell that I'm going to be more powerful than last year, which is great. More power, more shit goes down.
When long estranged Jake returns to West Line Ranch, Liz can't help but sense that they're in for a world of trouble - though as the two become closer, Liz becomes torn between her family and the man she's starting to fall for.
*****
After the beloved owner of West Line Ranch passes away, Liz and the rest of the ranch get a wild surprise at the reading of the will - long estranged Jake is on his way back to West Line Ranch, which can only mean trouble. When he arrives to not only discover he was granted full ownership of the ranch, but that he must stay for a year, he agrees, as there's nothing holding him to his past. However, the longer he stays at the ranch, the more he begins to fall for not just the simpler way of life in the country, but for Liz as well.
