"Why do you stay with him?" he asks as he corners me between the desk and his arms.

I looked down so I didn't have to see his face. He knows what goes on between me and my boyfriend and now he won't let me go. 

"B-be-because I-I'm a-afr-afraid." I stutter still looking down at my feet. 

He puts his finger under my chin and makes me look up at his beautiful bluish gray eyes. He's so beautiful from his chiseled features, to his beautifully tousled hair. His perfection makes me realize how imperfect I am. 

"Then why don't you leave him?" he asks as he searches my eyes for something unknown. I look into his eyes as they draw me closer and closer to him. To my surprise he is also moving closer to me. 

"How? I have no one." I whisper as our lips are barely touching and I can practically taste his minty breath. 

"Leave him and come to me." he says as he finally crashes his lips to mines taking me into a whole new world. I find myself responding and winding my arms around his neck pulling him closer to me.

Indecorous by rosieredness

(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "Attract a lot of attention, huh beautiful?" His voice hit me like a wall, absurdly catching me off guard. It was deep, sensual, something any girl (or boy) could melt over. I was sort of speechless, yet trying my best to appear unafflicted. "Only the wrong ones." That was definitely drunken me talking, as I didn't usually have that much confidence. His lips twitched up into a smirk, expressing that he understood my comment. "Does that mean that I'm in that category?" My palms began to grow sweaty and my heart rate picked up, but otherwise my body remained relaxed, appearing completely fine. It similar to when you're on autopilot, completely withdrawn due to intoxication. "I suppose not," I crossed my arms, putting on this seductive persona just for him. This fueled his smirk, about to murmur another comment before I cut him off. "You'll have to show me, though." *** Amelia Hollis was a 23-year-old writer at one of the local publishing companies, assisting a very handsome man and writing articles left and right. Her and her best friend, Aviary, lived together in a cute little apartment off the central part of the city, yearning to create new memories and important moments. Amelia always lived for the moments, taking in every little detail and savoring it like it was her favorite meal. She was an optimist, hoping to change peoples lives with her dreams. James Vallette was a 34-year-old CEO, building his company from dirt with the help of his brother. He was a realist, not really having time to deal with dreams or even love. He knew this the night he laid eyes on Amelia. It was only casual; what harm could a one-night stand do? Oh yeah, he's her dad's boss.

She fell on the vampire. *** "You don't know anything about him!" He was concerned. "Then why don't you tell me, I wanna know about him more." I placed my last pawn. The boss's pawn. Now he was furious or jealous. He got up from his place and pull my hand. I stood up his face was just an inch away. I could feel his breath on my face. "How about I tell you about myself?" His husky voice in my ears made my body shiver. I closed my eyes. "Open your eyes, Al." I didn't open my eyes. I felt his fingers on my chin as he spoke. "Al, look at me." I opened my eyes and my eyes met his gaze and then he kissed the corner of my mouth. *** How hard it can be to be with the one you don't love or the one who despises you?

"Who are you?" I asked, still left in the shock and scared state that came over me when gunshots were heard.

Blame for Blame ✔ by Electricbluriots

"One body: A death, a suicide, and now a murder. Lunacy is settling over, leaving its fingerprints on them, while breathing down their necks. The warm kiss of air is mistaken for nothing but a midnight breeze, and finger prints not much more than dirt. "Are you worthy enough, huh? Do you think I'm such a fool? You'll die there. Ashton Kahn. Mark my words. You are going to die and your family is going to live a dead life. You know what grief is? Of course, why would YOU know? You haven't been miserable for once in your life, have you? You have always been the super-star, haven't you? Of course you'll die. You deserve nothing but a deadly, rotten grave. You are such a chick, aren't you? Huh. I hate you Ashton Kahn. You are so mean. You think wealth is the world. You think beauty is the world. Don't you find having the best muscles, having the best grades, having the perfect eyes, having the perfect clothes, shoes-" Her words were so powerful, her expression meaner. She meant it. And how right she was. There I was, living a beautiful life. Of course I had no idea what misery is. I'd never been miserable for a second. Hah. She was giving me a lesson. The feeling was so intense, her words ruling my brain, empowering my veins. I was so useless. Have I ever cried? Have I ever thought why people say Life is just a Lie? Did I ever care why was the guy behind the coffee shop shutters crying? Did I ever gave it a second thought what did that guy felt when I called him Bozo? Or what was going on with that girl I heard of whose parents died a day ago? Of course, what was I capable of feeling? And there I had always thought I was the perfect me. The boy who could do anything. The boy who ruled. The boy who lived. Life is just a Lie. And for the first time in ever, I felt it to be so, so real. The reality of this was ever-awakening, it's power would have killed a soul. Life is just a Lie.

"I hate you, more than anything," I gritted my teeth. "You sure about that?" He taunted with a smirk. He took a step forward, and I took a step back; it went back and forth until my back touched the wall. He moved so close to me that my breathing hitched. "Now why do you think that, Amore?"
