Stefanie walked along the shore of the lake, enjoying the evening air. The soft, wet sand felt good underneath her feet. She breathed in deeply, inhaling scents she had enjoyed ever since she was a small child. A large gull flew overhead, looking for one last meal before turning in for the night. The sunset's reflection danced across the water. Stefanie sighed and smiled contentedly. She bent down to pick up a small shell, and her eyes caught on something. Someone. Laying in a motionless heap by the water's edge.
     "Caleb!" Stefanie gathered her skirts and ran towards him. "Caleb! Please, please, be alright. Caleb! No, no, no, no, no..." She knelt down and held her hand in front of his mouth.
     He wasn't breathing.All Rights Reserved

matthew the murderer • book 1 by taylorwilliams2003

"Madison?" I say through my tears. I touch her face. Even though we weren't together, I still loved her. I was planning to ask her out, but I guess that that won't happen. "Carter." I turn around and see Cameron in the door. I turn back to Madison and kiss her forehead before getting up. I walk over to Cameron, and wipe my eyes. "Hey," Cameron says grabbing my shoulder. I refuse to look at him. "Look at me." He says. I turn to him and look at him. "Everything's going to be fine." He says. I shake my head. "Not without Madison." I say as I shake myself free from his grasp. **** ew this is so cringey and it's terrible but i wrote it when i was like 12 so....

Finding You by KahnaKahn

"And for your information I too had liked you perhaps a little too much." She looked away biting her lips in the process. "Unfortunately we both know where we both stand because by the end of the day you will always choose your mate above anything else." Instantly I grabbed her chin with my thumb and fore finger tilting her head up, back her up into the black board, pinning her against it. Inching herself closer I felt her soft wet tongue against my lips while I longed to kiss her. Seff was now panting urging me to take her. Damn wolf make up your mind already. "Mr. Travis." "Braydon." She looked at me confused, "It's Braydon." My voice hoarse. "Braydon, I want you." For a minute I thought I saw her eyes darkened with a tinge of colored lining around the iris but then again it must be the lust. "Please say you are mine." "I..." Fuck, it was like I was hypnotized but clearly I was aware of what I thought, I was aware of what I feel. "I want you." I whispered. Soon she crashed her lips on mine. Our tongue entangling each other. Both of us moaning as her lips trailed down the side of my neck kissing it. Her teeth grazing against my skin and I couldn't help but pressed a hand against the board, feeling her chest slamming against mine. Her teeth nipping on my skin slightly piercing it. I hadn't notice but soon tiny droplet of blood dribbled downwards only for her to lick it clean. My hands now cupping her breast as she continued to nip on my expose shoulders. All rational thought just went out the windows and I was no forming a nice tent in my pants, "Fuck Amy." My lips found hers again giving her a sloppy kiss. Holding her waist she jumped up for me to catch her, legs now firmly wrapped around my lips while I dry hump her at the same time. Until I heard a shriek of cry more like sheer pain. "What the fuck is going on?" Rachel pushed me away from Amy. I forgot she was here crap.

Charred Feelings by Katnisscake

The sky fogged over. I couldn't carry Aspen any longer. "Let me take the blue one. It'll save me." Tears dripped onto his cheeks as I fed him the ocean blue pill. I prayed. I waited and waited for him to get up. He never did. Everything was chaotic. I wish I could go back. Back to when we didn't hear the voices on the other side of the wall. Curiosity got the best of me. I've put everything in danger. Of course the higher ups wouldn't give me peace for my rebellion and curiosity. The society will kill me if I step out of the line. And yet I'm still doing this.

Bird Wings by LauraTiffany11312

Wren's life is about to change forever - but not how she expects it to. Kidnapped on her wedding day, she finds herself trapped in a mountain cave, unable to return home with no company outside of the inhuman creature that took her. *** "Wait, Wren! Not that way!" It was darker here and panic limited her vision, but she could see it reaching for her; its wings like two huge looming shadows behind it. "Get away! Don't touch me! No, let me go!" She shrieked. She screamed in earnest as a hand took hold of her arm, and then even more when her own hand reached for something to hang onto and grasped at empty air. She had been scrambling towards a sudden drop! The hands hauled her back, but she still struggled. She didn't want to look at it, and she still wasn't sure she wouldn't rather take her chances with the open air instead. "Stop it, I'm not going to hurt you! You'll hit your head on the rock or something. Wren, please!" It knew her name. Somehow it knew her. She was going to die! "Let me go! Stop touching me!" She was sitting on the rocky floor now with her back against an uneven wall, and it was trying to pin her down and hold her still. She kept her eyes turned away and struggled helplessly, but it was no use. It was strong like a human man too, and she couldn't keep it off of her. The wings had moved until they curved around them both and shut out a lot of the light. Its face was so near hers that she could feel its breath brushing against her skin. "Please just look at me for a second. Just look. I'm not going to hurt you." One of the hands grabbed her chin and forced her head to turn, and then she was looking straight into a pair of dark brown eyes. It had a human face too. She had been expecting something monstrous or ghastly, and the surprise made her falter for a moment. He looked young, with a bad haircut and an earnest expression on his face. "I'll let go of you, okay? Just don't lunge around like that anymore, you'll get hurt." He whispered.

The Alpha's Daughter by KatarenaQ

I have revamped the story please let me know how you like it I was sitting alone in the park, looking out over the frozen lake, watching the sun set. When I heard something behind me, *Snap* that made me jump, (it was hard not to). As the crackling sounds of leaves, and twigs under a heavy foot, it was larger than myself but also never said I was very big.

From The Start by ms_owriter

NOTE: (editing is minor. This is a rough copy) "So, girls, how's it going?" I inserted myself. They peer over their shoulders at the same time, faces in a serious expression. "Just fine, lover boy... Do you have something on your mind?" Rey questioned with folded arms. "No, not at all. I Just hope you don't mind me speaking to Candice here." I couldn't help this sudden boldness that came over me, just like at the party. I wanted nothing more than for it to go away. I felt like I would get myself into loads of mischief. ~~~~~~~~~🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹~~~~~~~~~~ Nathan was a handsome popular senior, living in a cliche bubble until, Candice, a beautiful loner, enters his superficial, twisted world. He takes an instant liking to her and naturally, drama and heartbreak ensues and turns their world upside down. Please refrain from copying or paraphrasing any of the texts without permission.

Six Years After by cassifer_winchester2

My mother was braiding my hair and had prepared my favorite breakfast; honey maple pancakes and bacon. I wore my favorite blue dress and my favorite black flats. My father had prepared gifts for me. They'd gotten me a new bike, a paint set, a flute, and a book called Shallow Waters. After breakfast, mother let me go ride my bike. It was light blue, with a beige little woven basket on the front. As I rode down the hill near my home in the country, sailing by the flowing tall grass, feeling the gravel beneath the tires, breathing in the cool air, all as my dress fluttered in the wind behind me. I had grown up in that home, lived there since I was a newborn. When I returned home, there was a car in front of the house.

Decadent by DystopianMilieu

My hand slaps against my mouth as I try to shut myself up. Don't make too much noise...or he'll hear you. A vehicle's door opens then slams shut. I don't hear footsteps...but as the minutes go by I begin to hear them; the footsteps get louder and louder and louder, matching the sound of my thundering heart. That's when I see his shadow cast over the ditch...over the place where I tried to hide. "Well," he says with a smile in his voice. "I wonder where he could've gone...the footprints stop here...so I wonder if he just...disappeared?" My body begins to tremble. I can feel it now. The pain. I can feel the pain already. He jumps down into the ditch...he stands directly in front of me, with his back facing me. My hand presses harder against my mouth as I try to suppress my whimper, but it's way too late now. But his body tenses up when he hears it. He laughs bitterly as he turns around slowly, and his eyes cut through my camouflage easily. "There you are."

Dont Leave Me(Sequel to Dont Touch Me) by Ceioprsu

"I cant loose you again!" He screamed. I felt his hand squeeze mine again. Tighter than before. "I know, youll be fine." Was all I could say. After all these years, he had never cried, cause he swore he wouldnt. But he cried now. As I layed here, he cried for me. "Please... don't leave me." He pleaded. But there was nothing I could do. I just starred at him, as he looked back at me. I knew he wasn't really seeing me, just starring and thinking. Little footsteps echoed off the walls, they mustve let her go. As me and Jacob turned to look, already knowing the challenge that faced us. Explaining this to Zadia. Her face lit up as she ran towards us, but not knowing the threats around her, she started to see the whole picture. Horror covered her entire expression. Her voice cracked when she called out. "Mommy?"
