Charming Devil
"Walk into my parlor," said the spider to the fly. "'Tis the prettiest little parlor that you ever did spy." He was the villain. She was the hero. That was all Agent Hayes ever needed to get the job done. Born into a legacy of national service, codes, rules, and laws were etched into her very bones. Right and wrong might be matters of perception, but the law was absolute. The law was order. Yet, with every brush against the elusive criminal, her once-unshakable worldview trembled. Deception was second nature to her in undercover work. She had dismantled empires of evil with nothing more than a smile. Veterans of crime had been reduced to nothing, undone by their failure to see her coming. But this time, in a twisted game of I-spy, even with all her skills and strategies, she still couldn't catch the fly. She set out to unravel a single thread of lies, but for each one she pulled, ten more tangled knots appeared. The deeper she delved, the darker and more treacherous the path became-until, in a moment of piercing clarity, she realized the truth: she wasn't the one spinning the web. She wasn't the spider at all. She was the fly. And he was the Spider King.

Tiffany Cotton was not who she said she was. The peculiar woman had shown up in Ravensfield one night, wielding a pistol with a familiarity that odd, run-of-the-mill spinsters shouldn't know how to do.

But he noticed Miss Cotton. Particularly how she had the penchant to show up in places that she shouldn't be. There was something about her that spiked his intrigue... and suspicions. And after the last bout of recklessness on his part, he was not about the make the same mistake twice.

Finding Us!
I was brought out of my slumber, with a loud thud of the door slamming close & the sound of locking it after. It was too dark for me to see who exactly it was, so I got up from the bed & made my way to the door. Only to see the least expected person ever...."Mr. Wilson"! He held my arms and switched our positions, so that I was facing him, while my back was pressed against the wall. His face was inches apart from mine & I could feel his warm breath fanning on my face with a little familiar intoxicating smell. "This is what you wanted right?", he asked, tightening his grips on my arms & I just winced in pain. "You only wanted this, right?... Then I'll give it you, now!" he said furiously, each word harsher than the last one. And then, he did something, I would've never believed he would do....

As such, it is very unedited! I am leaving it up because it was my first book on Wattpad, and came straight from my heart. I don't really plan on editing it so I am sorry if you notice any errors/holes/mistakes, but hope you can enjoy it in its very rough and unpolished form nonetheless :-)Concluida
What Nobody Knew
"Elizabeth, we have more stores to get to, so if you please.'" Came Mr. Knight's impatient voice from the other side of the door. I still wasn't used to him calling me by my first name, but since he used it this morning, he hasn't gone back to the previous "Miss Bennet". I sighed before stepping out of the dressing room. "Sir, I'm not so sure about this one..." I trailed off, while giving a slight twirl so he could see the whole dress. When I looked up, Mr. Knight's eyes were roaming over every inch of my form. I could feel the heat rushing towards my face and a funny tingling feeling settling in my stomach. Why did he have to look at me like that? It was almost like he wanted to... No, this was Mr. Knight, he wouldn't be looking at me like that... and I was most definitely not excited at the mere thought of it. No, in fact, I was uncomfortable, so uncomfortable that I wished I had something to cover myself up with. But, it seemed that I forgot how to operate my legs and was now glued to the spot. Mr. Knight cleared his throat, looking away from me and avoiding eye contact al together. "Uhm, yes... I think you might be right. Let's try another one." He pulled out his phone and started scrolling through it. That was strange. Was Mr. Knight actually uncomfortable? ... This is a Pride and Prejudice retelling where Mr. Darcy is a rich CEO and Elizabeth his over-qualified PA. May contain some mature scenes.

Toast of the Season
🏆 2025 Amby Favorite 🏆 Edmund Westworth (26), the third Earl of Beaumont, and the most eligible bachelor in London, unknowingly started a tradition he now regrets. At age twenty-two he danced the first dance at the season opening ball at Almack's with a young lady who became the toast of the season. The next year he did the same. Every year since, he has danced one dance, to fulfill his mother's requirement. And every year his dance partner becomes the most sought after girl of the season. Some think he has a gift, Edmund thinks he could pick any girl and 'the ton' would deem her desirable based on his dance alone. His friends disagree and bet him 100£ to choose a dance partner who couldn't possibly entice the gentlemen of London. When her father suddenly passes away, Elizabeth Cavendish (20) has to move in with her aunt's family. With the estate entailed, Elizabeth needs to find a husband quickly or her aunt will install her into a governess or lady's companion position, which would severely hinder Beth's ability to work on her scientific experiments. Garbed in her cousin's horrific dresses from last season, she only has a few weeks to find a husband before she is doomed to tedious work for the rest of her life. She finds an unlikely accomplice in the Earl of Beaumont. Please don't copy any part of my story in any form (including Youtube) without my permission.
