My name is Leonardo 'Leo' James and I'm a twenty three year old man that owns the best yacht club or shipping dock in all of Seaside view. I'm a 6'4 giraffe as my goddaughter calls me who loves to yacht and surf in my free time yes I know very exhilarating. Did I mention I stalk the girl who sits and watches the sunset every day.
---------------
My name is Alexis, 'Lexi' Walker. I'm twenty two years old, I'm a nurse at Seaside Memorial Hospital just about a ten minute walk from the beach and that's where I go at the end of my shift at five o'clock every day. I'm 5'3 but although I'm tiny my bite is definitely worse than my bark. I've been working at the hospital since I graduated medical school early at just age nineteen. I've seen many things working in the hospital but none most terrifying as that night. So as I watch the sunset for the one hundred and thirty third time I dry my eyes of my unshed tears and get up to leave catching a glimpse of the man who has been watching me for the length of time I've been coming to the beach every day.
-------------------
Join Lexi and Leo on the journey of their two worlds colliding and maybe just maybe along the way trip and fall in love. Will Leo be able to help Lexi heal? and Will Lexi be able to finally open back her heart?

It Wasn't Love ✔️
"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape.

Love Rectangled
You all must have seen movies and read books about Love triangles. But this is not a triangle, It's a Rec-tangled. Lexi Wolf, Queen Bee of Pinewood High, stuck in a twisted rectangle of love, full of confusion, humor, silliness, pretense, jealousy, and heartbreaks. * * * * * "Stay with me, Lexi." He tucked my hair behind my ear. I wasn't the drunk one here, but the way he gazed at me with his deep eyes was enough to make me. I blinked my eyes at him and shook my head, trying to clear the fog in it. The fact that I was laying over him, with our chest pressed together and his hand on my waist wasn't helping either. "I-I... I don't think that's a good idea," I whispered, finally getting my voice back. "Why?" He looked at me intensely. "Is it because of your boyfriend?" "No." "Then what's the problem?" His thumb lightly creased my back from where my top had gotten up, making me quiver. "Why can't you stay?" "I..." "Don't you trust me, Lexi?" "Of course I do, I just..." I moved a little to get off him, but in a swift motion, he flipped us on the bed with him on the top this time. Gasping in surprise, my eyes grew big and I put my hands on his strong biceps. He put his forearm on either side of my face, leaning on them. I rubbed my thighs together which were between his legs. I was trapped between him and the bed. My breath hitched as he leaned in until our noses touched. "You just what?" My entire body heated as I felt his muscular chest pressed against mine. I bit my lip and tried to control my stupid hormones, but it made it worse when Noah's gaze went to my lips. I saw his Adam's apple bob as he continued to stare at my lips. My throat felt dry and my eyes darted to his. He stuck his tongue out and licked his lower lip. OMG, I'm in deep trouble! * * * * * Editing.

The first one I dare say I consider the jewel in my crown of stories is my "OUTERBANKS SEASON 4" Yep! And don't worry, it has nothing to do with the treasure that ultimately led to JJ's death. This treasure for my own season is one I'm creating from scratch, since I'm basing it on historical factors. The beginning will be the same as the beginning of the 4th season but I'll change everything in the first chapter. Spoiler, Kie won't even be JJ's girlfriend anymore, Jade, my main character girl, was a big blow to him. That's what hurts me... but hey, JJ won't die. We can't have everything in life. Why am I saying all this? "Loving u with a Dove's heart" is a story to promote my 4th season of OBX, which I plan to publish when I finish this one. Anyway, I talked a bit about this in the introduction of this little story. I really hope you enjoy this and feel the story as if you were Belle. Enjoy and stay safe. ♡ 𝐋𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝒮𝑒𝒶𝐿𝑜𝓋𝑒 ®Complete
