Before you read:
This is more of a preview, as the story isn't anywhere near finished, and I have a lot more written than what is seen here. I'm taking a different approach on this kind of premise, because it isn't necessarily an apocalypse. I'm trying to carve a world that takes on the characteristics of a rose. Stories that take place after a nuclear war usually describe the aftermath as being barren, ugly, and poisonous. I'm not going for that. In my story, it's really quite lush and beautiful, but several times more dangerous. After all, every rose has its thorns.
But my story is less about the world or environment, and more about the people and characters who live within it. The aim is to focus on them, their chemistry, and development. What good is a story anyway, if you don't care about the characters in it? Right now I know there isn't quite enough here to see the connections and to care about the relationships, but it is a start. Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy it.

The Billionaire's Enchantment
"You can kiss my foot, Mr. Bennett," Flora retorted, turning sharply to leave. But Alex only smirked, unbothered by her defiance. In a flash, his hand closed around her waist, hauling her back against him and pinning her to the wall. A gasp tore from her lips as his tall frame towered over hers. Trapped between the man and the cold wall, she had nowhere to run. "What are you doing?" she demanded, her voice trembling at the dangerous glint in his eyes. "Fulfilling your wishes, my flower," Alex murmured, his voice husky with dark amusement. "Although I would have preferred if you had said your ass." Then, he slowly lowered himself before her, his gaze never breaking from hers. His lips curved into something wicked as he whispered, "I have never knelt for any woman before. Yet one word from you brings me to my knees, woman." *** Flora Roberts thought divorce would free her from the cold cruelty of Jayden Kensington and the suffocating grip of his powerful family. She was wrong. When she flees Rockville for a fresh start in Crestview, she collides with the one man more dangerous than her ex-husband-Alexander Bennett. Ruthless, magnetic, and impossibly dominant, Alexander wants her...and Alexander never takes no for an answer. Author's Note: Expect every trigger possible.

"I dare you, my little kitty," his lips brushing against my earlobe; causing my whole body to shiver, reacting in an unknown way I have ever felt before.

My Dear Reader Rebecca
What will you do, when you have only 5 days left, before a dead-or-alive challenge happens? Rebecca is having a highly risky brain surgery next week. Time is extremely precious for her. Yet she chooses to finish reading a book, which is unfortunately mine. I am a failing writer whose stories go nowhere. There are still two more chapters to write for this book, but I am having a writer's block. I visit her in the hospital, and greatly inspired by her courage under the unfortunate circumstances. However, can I finish the book in time for her? I'll try my best. Once again, my mind flies back to the post-apocalypse world of my fiction, searching for a way to end the book properly... ...... This is an attempt to mix comedy with tragedy. Some content is quite heavy, like cancer, depression, sick patients...etc. So prepare a tissue, just in case. I wrote and posted the first 3 chapters 4 years ago, yet due to my stupidity and insensitivity, I lost a dear friend over this story, which I regretted deeply. The idea was first inspired by another friend, who gave me some first hand experience of a cancer patient. Can't thank her enough. It's totally my fault that this story was delayed for so long. It's simply too good to waste, and not fair for her priceless contribution. There are also various things inspired by different friends online, who once bared their souls to me. Sincerely appreciate their friendship. It has totally 8 chapters. Each one has about 2000 to 3000 words. Disclaimer: Everything here is fake, never happened and completely fabricated by my wild imagination. The story has nothing to do with Wattpad or any website, because seriously, nothing is real here. If someone happens to have a similar experience, that's just coincidence. Copyrights of Becca Franco, Bill Cadogan and "The 100" TV series belongs to The CW Network.Complete

Legends Life - Out of control
This is a novel about a topic we technically made up randomly and if there are any mistakes, errors, or just places I could fix and add more details please tell me, I want to make this book enjoyable and exciting to read! Also please be aware that some of these will be notice's and this book does need and have a blood warning and a swear warning! Please do be aware if you can't deal with blood this book does get descriptive (Partly true) and I will be explaining what scars, burns and wounds look like and the pain felt for them. This book is more themed in the future than it is nowadays. You may also find some technology that is more futuristic, and there are things talking about the past. Most of the book is switching between views of the main characters. We want you to expect the unexpected in this book, for example: Most books don't kill off the main character, we want you to think we will kill off one of them. Most of the characters in this will have birthdays and age in the background and it may not be written. There will be more books coming out so we will end this one on a cliffhanger.Complete

"Its Complicated"
STOP✋ PLEASE READ AND REREAD BEFORE CONTINUING MY STORY THIS FOR YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!! Sometimes FAN FIC life is a fairytale, Fanfics, so shallow especially Jacob Saturious ones. so I you want one with drama, plots twist, and real relations you come to the RIGHT place. 1. They will not instantly fall in love, this is NOT high school musical OK. 2. Every thing won't a magical coincidence, they WONT have every class together, they WONT be neighbors and No they won't FALL IN LOVE INSTANTLY AND GET MARRIED OKAY 3.

Possessive Hearts, His Desired Sin
{rewritten version of Possessive Hearts} "Where do you think you're going?" He spoke. His big strong hands pinning me against the wall. The scent of dangerous lavender feeling my senses. "To class. Where do you think?" I replied with a snark. Trying to push him away, but failed and he chuckled from my struggling. "Not today, Kitten." "Who said you could call m-" he picked up my chin forcefully. His piercing red eyes claiming my electric blue ones. The unforgettable sparks shooting through me. His eyes darkening with lust. "You're mine now Kitten." * Ky Severs, your "grade A" average bad boy. Serena Havenmoon, your not so average goodie goodie girl.
