Blaire had everything. Daughter of the famous Jackson Greywood and Jacqueline Sparks, she was surrounded by family, love, and an indescribable amount of money. Her life was perfect and she took it all for granted. That is until the accident.
Jade had nothing. With a sick mother and a drunk for a father, it was a wonder they didn't starve. One day he came upon an opportunity he couldn't resist. He came out with riches beyond his wildest dreams but scarred an already broken girl in the process.
They both hoped never to meet again but fate had other plans. Will Jade be able to keep the biggest secret of his life from the girl who might be the only one who can figure it out? Will Blaire find it in her heart to forgive the boy who wronged her but might be the only one with the power to steal her heart? Sometimes falling in love with the last person you should is as easy as taking candy from a baby. Or like stealing diamonds from a blind girl.

My Life, My Alpha.......My Love
"Zachary." I snickered. He growled playfully as I laughed, dodging his attempt to grab me and took off running in a random direction. I ran with Zac right on my heels, until I turned a corner and ran into a hard chest. I prepared myself for a hard fall, when two muscular arms shot out, wrapping around my waist and crushing my body against theirs. "Hello, beautiful." The person said. I looked up to see a handsome boy, probably around seventeen also. His face looked oddly familiar and while trying to figure out why, I froze. His face was inching closer and closer to mine. I could feel his breath wash over my face as his lips was parted, only inches away from my face, eyes closing slightly, when suddenly a fierce growl shot out through the silence, that had my body tingling. In a flash I was out of the mysterious boy's hold and my hand instantly reached out to steady myself. I looked up to see Zac, pinning the boy by his throat, on a nearby wall. "Keep your filthy hands to yourself, she's MINE!!!!"He growled possessively. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Jessica Matthews, i'm 17 and i'm a werewolf..not only that but the alpha's daughter.My life was perfect, i had an amazing family which consisted of my parents, my older brother Jared and I, I had a wonderful bestfriend, Stacey and, even though he wasn't my mate, a perfect boyfriend, Dylan, or at least i thought so, until one night he does something unforgivable and my mate waltzes in as my knight in shining armor.

Assassins don't cry
{Re-written version} Jade isn't just a good assassin-she's the best. She's seen it all, done it all and doesn't get rattled easily Except when she's told she has to kill the most feared mob boss of the century- Silas Andreeva But what she doesn't know is that this is all a ploy for Silas to test Jade's capabilities. But it isn't just about a test, is it?-it's personal. Silas isn't just looking for a killer; he's drawn to her specifically. It starts with respect-admiration for her skill, the way she doesn't flinch under pressure. But then? It gets messy. Once recruited, a dangerous tension builds. Every conversation, every moment is a push and pull between an assassin and the man who should be her target. Jade and Silas are equals. She's the best assassin out there, and he's the kind of man crazy enough to invite his death just to see if she's worth his time. Neither of them fully trusts the other... but that just makes things hotter. "Am I falling for him, or is this just another game?" "Did I set this up to test her... or because I wanted to keep her close?" They should be enemies. They should walk away. But neither of them does. Because deep down, they know-this is the most fun they've had in a long time. This is the kind of love story that simmers-slow burns with tension so thick it's practically crackling. Every interaction is a game of cat and mouse, but neither of them is sure **who's who. And the best part? They both know it's dangerous. They just don't care.Complete

˚ ✦ the black diamonds ✦˚
this is only a main draft for now and I plan to make this into a book, so please enjoy these chapters. ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ The scholarship to Raven Academy was Jude's entry to a life. A rich, overly pretentious boarding school where only the filthy affluent students would attend. Without it, without those grades, he had no future, no way to save his mother from a fatal illness and his family from being poverty stricken. So he entered the endless battle of exams and achievements against his rival ; the notable Blaire Blackwood. In contrast... All Blaire Blackwood ever needed was success to rear her parent's attention off her golden brother Cyril. He was destined for the glory of the family business and was thriving off an easy life, while Blaire overworked herself for a few instances of pitiful attention from her parents. If she didn't succeed, she wouldn't be able to cope. So she began dedicating each instance of her life to get accepted into the notorious Ivy Leagues, and prove her worth through academic validation. In a tale of academics, friendships and much more, meet the infamous "Black Diamonds" group, destined for triumph for some, while others barely grasp the reins of their own lives. As after all... in the "Four Suits of Cards", diamonds represent the upper class of society and signify luxurious lifestyles. They remind us of the attraction of money and what it costs to chase it, while the colour black suggests mystery, intrigue, and the unknown. ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆

One stare across that smoky room, and the most dangerous man in the city decides she belongs to him. Jade swears she's not the "ride or die" type... but Dre's pull feels different. Possessive.
