Together, they stand in the face of many enemies. They battle jealousy, temptation, and hate. In the wake of it all, they find comfort in friends that will follow where ever they lead and cross off names on an ever-growing list of foes. While trying to survive, loyalties will be forgotten, and love is a question in their relationship. All the while, all they want is out, but, the streets always call them back.

Ace Of Spades (Complete Raw First Draft, Unedited) by janeisderranged

This story sucks, don't read it! It's amazing how quickly your life can change. In a slow town like this, where nothing exciting ever happens, where nothing ever changes, one single moment can alter your life forever, for better, or for worse. Sometimes, we're lucky enough to be able to recognise these particular moments, and take a leap of faith, but, more times than not, they just happen without us even realizing what's going on until it's already too late. Tonight, a simple Saturday night, just like any other, would turn out to be one of the most defining moments of my life. Ace is living a slow life, knowing nothing other than drinking with his friends and the motorcycle club that raised him, waiting to reconnect with his father who has just been released from prison after a fifteen year sentence. Life is simple, though he thought. Until the night he meets Jenna, running from her haunting past and the man that she is desperately trying to escape. Ace is dead set on protecting Jenna, but, as she slowly learns to trust him enough to open up to, he finds himself landing in the middle of a human trafficking operation and a feud that goes way back, between the ringleader and his club. Suddenly, life doesn't seem so simple... Work in progress, especially the blurb! This story has content which may offend some readers. Mild coarse language! Physical and sexual violence! Lots of drug references! First draft! I don't own the cover image! I'm a disappointment to my family!

He rushes behind a car as I'm shooting at him as he's shooting while running away. "Imma Kill You Manny!" I growl at him angrily as I keep firing shots as my gun clicks. "Fuck." I grumbled as I duck behind a car as well. I take out my magazine as I started to load it quickly not caring about my finger prints being on them. He reloaded as well as he must've had a extra clip because he immediately started firing again. Glass shattering as Shayla was laying on the ground balled up. --------------------------- "Nobody told you to beat up Manny! That's your fault." I tell him as we started to calm down now. "Nobody told you to fuck him either." He tells me as I shake my head at him tearing up again. "Fuck you James! You fucked my best friend. YOU GOT HER PREGNANT!" I tell him as he sits there in silence. We both do. five minutes go by of both of us not saying anything. So I do. Two wrongs don't make a right, but what can you expect from teenagers?. James, Shayla, and Nina all become circumstances to the choices they each make. But down here emotional decisions can cost you your life. Viewer discretion is advised.

My Bad Boy by _iamnini19

************ I opened my locker but realized something was wrong the minute I looked inside it. Something like paint splashed in my face and on my clothes. I heard laughter behind me and instantly turned around to see those five Moran's heading towards me. "Now, no one disrespects me okay? I went easy on you, since it was your first day, but don't mess with me again. Alright love" Zack said with his signature smirk. I saw red at this point. I moved towards Zack and the others keeping contact with Zack the entire time. I stopped inches away from Zack. My furiously sparkling eyes met with his amused one. And then I did the one thing I wanted to do so badly. I slapped him. ************************* When 17 year old Ashley Ross has to move to a new country with her mom and sister, she has no idea what awaits her. She just wants to keep her head down and finish her senior year. Her plans change when she runs into the hottest and badass boy, Zack Walker. She has to try not to fall for the annoyingly handsome Zack and his also hot best friend Josh. She needs to find a way to survive her senior year. There is more to this teen love story. There are twists, mysteries, secrets and more. Don't be fooled by the title because it might not be her bad boy after all. Parties, high school drama, fights, kisses, cat fights, betrayal, secrets and more. The good girl always falls for the bad boy. The bad part is that the bad boy might break your heart. OR it could be the other way around. Be inspired by their story.
