'I am-', he paused and smiled a little too widely for her, revealing a perfect set of dentition.
'Well, whoever I am is of no consequence. I just wanted to see who you are. I have heard so much about you and I wanted to meet you in person.'
Emma was miffed. The gall of this man! Was he sane at all? She plastered a smile on her face and tried to calm herself down.
'Too bad I haven't heard anything about you, whoever you are. You can go back and spread the word then, you have met me now. Is there anything else pertaining to business that I can help you with?'
He smiled again which annoyed Emma because she noticed he was handsome and his eyes were beautiful. She wondered why he had even bothered to come in the first place. A magazine or a google search would have sufficed.
'That is all truly. I would be on my way out. It has been a pleasure doing business with you. I do hope we meet again soon. I would be looking forward to that.' With that he got up and stretched out his hand for a handshake.

"Emma, talk to me please." I asked as I gave the Savior her drink. "I left him." Surprised at her statement, I thought I was hearing things. "You left him? You left Killian?" "Yes, I left him" "Aww Emma". I sighed and then pulled my friend in for a hug. After a while, Emma had stopped crying, sat up, took a swig of her scotch then turned her face to look at me, she held my gaze with those green eyes. "I'm sorry Regina, you were the only person I wanted to come to. I hope you don't mind." "Emma, you're always welcome here you know that." My concern for Emma was deepening. "Do you want to talk?" I continued. "I don't love him, something happened recently that made me... ahh... made me be truthful to myself and I cannot continue to live this lie anymore." Emma took another swig of her drink. "But is he not your true love? I don't understand dear." Emma returned her eyes to confront my own chocolate colored globes, staring intently as if she was willing her eyes to speak, minutes passed before Emma verbally spoke again. "No Gina, he is not, and I don't want to fix our marriage, it has been a shamble from the start."Complete
The Dark Realm
Published: 10-April-2020 Prologue: "He was an old man, probably died on his own. Did the letter say that he was killed?" I was asked. When I heard what had been said, my face turned yellow. Something I had been blind to suddenly became so clear. I had mentioned visiting that man, but i never mentioned that he was killed. Nor did I mention receiving a letter. "How did you know he died?" I asked. "You told me, silly." "No I didn't. And I never said anything about a letter." I said firmly. Emma fell asleep on the plane and woke up in a mythical kingdom. The place was spoken about in legends and myths only, but it doesn't exist on any map. While trying to open the passage between the realms, she meets a man who might be able to change her mind about leaving. However, she keeps getting threats from an unknown stalker who kills her loved ones one by one. But would returning to her home end her problems, or would the stalker still torment her?Complete

Just like a boss and employee. And never try to manhandle me the way you are doing now." And I turned around. I approached the door, but Adrian whirled me and pinned me against the door by my shoulders. "Your big mouth needs to be punished for spitting in front of your Boss," before I could apprehend his words, I found his lips on mine. ** "I had a dream this afternoon. You spanked me."

Uncharted Feelings
"Why did you do that?" I asked as I entered the classroom and set my books on his desk. "What did I do?" he replied, not looking up. "I waved at you, and you ignored me.

Suddenly a loud thump came from behind me and an immense crushing pain seared through my back . I was slammed in the lockers . I closed my eyes from the sudden contact and pain . Opening my eyes I groaned . The breathe left me all at once . He was the one who pushed . His eyes held so many emotions . anger , hatred and betrayal . It pained me to see that I was the cause of them . Suddenly his fist came flying with full force towards my face and my eyes widened at the thought that he was going to hit me . I closed my eyes waiting for the impact but instead of breaking my face he punched the locker inches away from my face putting a dent on it . He smirked at me . All the colors drained from my face .

His smirk even widened more when he saw the emotion in my eyes . Intense fear . I'm screwed . He pushed me more against the locker . It hurts in my back so much . A tear escaped from my eye and he smiled like he was enjoying it . " I know who you are and I'm going to make it hell for you , Emma." He said while clicking my name . He spoke with so much hatred and anger that it sent fear to the cores of my body . He once again slammed his fist in locker making the dent more visible and walked away leaving me in the fear. .................... Emma Parker , a 17 years old girl .
