The ceiling fan creaked to a stop above her. Her nails gripped the cool edge of  the metal table while she hung her head low. She was going insane. Officially. She knew it. She heard footsteps approach the door of the one-way mirrored room. She flung a piece of her red hair behind her ear before he entered silently and strode to stand and face her on the opposite side of the table.   He fastened his badge over his shoulder and took a sip of the coffee from the blank, off-white mug on his desk. He looked over a few pieces of paper, then up at her, then back again. While fixating a bright lamp on her face, he began by asking a simple question: "so you know why we brought you down here, correct? Where were you on the night Mason Addams went missing?"   Just hearing his name made her think of the memories; the sweet disasters that made her stomach flutter and her adrenaline levels skyrocket. It was like she was driving a car on a twisted mountain road while keeping her eyes on the rearview mirror. All hell was waiting for her ahead, but all she could focus on was her past.Seluruh Hak Cipta Dilindungi Undang-Undang

Playing His Games oleh loukeet

I shifted uncomfortably in my seat as he stared across the table at me. I could seriously drown in his eyes. He was intoxicatingly attractive and he had to know it. That's why he was acting strange around me. For some reason, he looked at me as if I was the only one there with him. As if nobody else were here. And his voice... it pained me. It actually pained me with how utterly seductive and husky it always sounded. And the way he smelled all the time. I don't know why he smelled so strong, but I didn't mind. He smelled like evergreens and a hint of mint. It sounds like a bad combo, but it dizzied me with how lost I got in it. The thought of not being able to control myself, my thoughts and feelings and body when I'm around him, infuriated me. I was so good at holding myself together now, and he just unraveled me so easily, leaving me a mess. I wasn't the slightest bit afraid of him, and I had no idea why either. Just being in the same room, I felt like I didn't have to look over my shoulder. I didn't have to worry. I didn't even know who he was, and he still drew me in. "So, you were in California before? Why did you move?" Grace Hatfield asked, looking at him. She is our school's college and career advisor. She took me in and adopted me a couple years ago. She even gave me her last name. A saving grace. Why had she invited him here? Why did he come? He turned to her with a smile and a shrug. "Guess I just hadn't found what I was looking for yet." Something about the way he said it, sent a shiver down my spine. Why did I feel like there was so much more meaning behind his words than he was letting on? "Well, I hope you find what you're looking for." Grace said, and he turned to me with a devilish smirk and a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Something tells me that I will."

Crossing Into Forever oleh violetclair267

In the darkness of her dreams, she saw herself standing at a window looking down below, only to see a misting, swirling fog. She could not see the ground and did not know how far down it was. She had no idea where she was. Soon after, she was led down a dark hallway to a room with a large altar. She felt herself being lifted up and then placed back down on the hard stone surface. Now all she could see was a large man, holding a knife in his hands, with the sharp edge pointed directly over her heart...Then a different man with deep blue eyes was looking down at her, and his hand was caressing her face, telling her everything was going to be ok. A loud bang on the door made her startle and rise up. There, coming through the door, were several large angry men, dressed strangely in what looked like animal furs and carrying ominous looking weapons. Some had clubs with sharp objects attached to the ends and others had sharp axes and swords. She could hear her own screams escaping from her lips, and she opened her eyes to notice she was lying in her bed in the safety of her room in the convent where she lived. She was still trembling and had to tell herself it was just a dream. She was safe and no one would ever be able to hurt her.

The Contract oleh MyWeekendIs_Booked

Something didn't feel right. I looked around my room slowly; cautiously; taking everything in and trying not to feel too nervous. Perhaps Lure was in my room right now, watching me, silently laughing to himself. I didn't doubt it. I slipped off my bed and walked around, hugging my waist, and tilted my head. I felt my rough ponytail slide against the back of my neck and over my shoulder as I moved. "Lure?" I hissed, "Lure, are you there?" I wandered around a little, for some reason feeling scared. But why? It was only Lure. He wouldn't hurt me, would he? "Okay, Lure. Quit it. I know it's you. Who else would it-" I stopped, startled, when I heard a strange sound that made me cringe. It was like fingernails being dragged across a chalkboard. I whipped around and came face-to-face with my mirror. Immediately, I saw the difference. Various scratches were displayed across the glass, forming words. It looked as if claws had written the words in the mirror. "Deepest apologies, but it was fun." (All credit goes to my sister, who wrote this when she was in the twelfth grade)

Sincerely Scarlett (Letters Of Change Series Book 2)(COMPLETED) oleh Kassilassie

**1st Draft, this will eventually be edited!** He heard voices coming from elsewhere as he rang the fancy bell for service. "I'll get it!" he heard a muffled small voice say before a young girl came from the door behind the counter "Hello Sir! And welcome to the Boardinghouse." The young girl said cheerfully. "Hello Miss, I would like a room." George said with a smile, the young girl had bouncy red curls and large icy blue eyes that were the same color as his own. Her smile seemed familiar but he knew he hadn't met the small girl before, yet the one before him seemed very familiar. "I don't know how to do that..." She said with a frown "Wait here I'll go get my Mama!" George smiled as she ran back through the doors yelling for her Mother. "Belinda Grace! It's not polite to shout indoors! You know that." He heard a familiar voice say, a voice he hadn't heard in around eight years. Scarlett his heart raced almost instantly as the very woman who filled his each and every dream for the past eight years walked out the door and greeted him. She seemed to have gotten even more beautiful if that were even possible. Her red hair no longer was confided to a fancy bun or hairstyle. It now fell past her waist in thick waves free and unruly while her bangs fell into her hauntingly beautiful Gray eyes. She had a simple smile on her face showing faint dimples on either side of her cheeks. Her skin was still the color of ivory but now housed several freckles which only made her more becoming. "How may I help you?" Scarlett asked bringing him from his thoughts. "Oh um... I-I'd like a room... with a bath." He said thankful for his overgrown facial hair. She didn't recognize him, and he was fine with that. He wasn't ready to face his wife he ran out on eight years ago.

Kiem's Unsolved Mysteries oleh Keshav_Aggarwal

Kiem sat in his dimly lit office, the afternoon sun slanting through the dusty blinds and casting long shadows across his cluttered desk. A faint but pleasant scent of petrichor, the earthy smell of rain after a dry spell, hung in the air, carrying a sense of tranquility. He was engrossed in a well-worn paperback, its pages whispering forgotten stories of distant lands and adventure. "Just a few more chapters to save the princess," Kiem muttered, turning a page with a rustle, it was his favorite edition of the book series. A sudden, sharp rap on the old wooden door shattered the peaceful atmosphere. Kiem glanced down at himself, feeling suddenly self-conscious. His usual work attire had been replaced by a comfortable fleece sweatshirt and a well-worn pair of relaxed-fit jeans, a testament to his escape into the world of the book. "Coming!" he called out, shoving the book shut with a thump and tucking it under his arm. The old door groaned as it swung ajar, revealing a disheveled Adler. His typically cheerful countenance was now filled with anxiety, and sweat glistened on his brow. Not only was he warm, Kiem realized with a sudden shock, but it seemed that Adler was practically emanating nervous energy. Read to Find out more about this....

Only You oleh motorkay

As we reached my hotel room door, Christian pressed me against it, bring his lips to mine again. I pulled away swiping my card to unlock the room door. I turned back to Christian's implored eye and smile innocently. "No, you can't come in" "Please?" he begged, using the full effects of his eyes on me. I shook my head weakly knowing that if he asked again, I would cave in. His eyes pierced through me, causing me to squirm under his gaze. Suddenly, the elevator opens as Madison walked out with Warren by her side. "I thought you'd be asleep by now" she says to me, thankfully pushing me into the room, breaking the intensity Christian created between us. "Good night Warren, good night Christian." Christian was still gazing at me when the door closed in his face. I quickly ran to open it as Madison jumped on my back causing me to fall to the floor. "What are you doing? get off me!" "Is everything okay in there?" I heard Warren's voice from the door "Fine" Madison called out, pinning me to the floor. Cheerleading is really doing her good. I need to work out more. "Stop being so desperate!" she whispers to me We looked up as the door opened. Mandy stood in the doorway as Liam, Warren, and Christian's confused eyes stared down at us. "Umm, yeah... Night" Mandy says as she entered the room, closing the door behind her. She looked down at us and begins to open her mouth. "Don't ask" I said, managing to push Madison off me.

INTRUDER INTO HIS DOMAIN oleh lexia_09

" I want her." He said pointing his finger towards me. My eyes widened and my face never felt so hot. He was looking at me intently, his dark eyes passionate, daring me to say no. I swallowed, the dark hot coffee burnt my poor tonsils. I wanted to shout and cry but I managed to suppress my pain. Ms Priestley giggled. "I'm sorry Mr Tremonte, but she's not qualified enough for the job. I'll suggest Macy Williams, she's the best employee we have and she's proficient in the job. Justine is only a secretary." He smiled, showing off his white even teeth. I put down my cup of coffee, I didn't want to risk spilling it onto my lap. I was accident prone and I didn't want Mr Tremonte to think that he was making me nervous to a point that I couldn't control my actions. "Never underestimate the abilities of a secretary, Ms Priestly." Ms Priestley's full lips curved into a smile and then she burst out laughing. She was finding the scene quite amusing, I wasn't. "I certainly won't, but she's not what you're looking for." "She'll learn," he insisted. "I'll make sure of that."

The Forgotten Child oleh Little1Writer

"Actually I do. I'm working", I said with no emotion at all. They didn't deserve it. They don't get to know how I have felt through the years without them, I'm happy here. "Nope, your coming out to dinner away from this dump with your brothers and father", He said whilst looking around in discust. I rolled my eyes at him which he looked pretty shocked at. "Look Stone, Im not that 6 year old you can just boss around and fuck over anymore, I can take care of myself, Ive been doing that for my whole life so far, so why not the rest, so either order something or get the fuck out", I said to him getting faster and faster as I spoke.

Loving Wyatt Queen-Stone | ✔ oleh violet0gold

The moment my eyes drifted up from my book when the bell to the diner chimed I knew my life had just began when I saw her standing there with a wide smile across her face. She wore purple overalls with an orange crop top underneath to match her orange high tops. Her hair was a mess of curls that hung down her back and her eyes, they held a certain innocence in them. She bounces up to the counter with a pair of red beats headset around her neck, I watch as my mother asks her name, to which the girl smiles wider. "Iris-Josephine, nice to meet you," She says, extending her hand. My mother smiles and takes the girls order. I look away, burying my head back in my book. But that doesn't last long when a shadow appears, I look up to see the girl taking a seat across from me, a coffee and muffin placed in front of her. I give her a questioning look before glancing back down at my book.

Abducted oleh Brooklyngirl1026

"What reason do I have to lie?" He looked up at me with squinted eyes. "Hmm, Maybe because YOU KIDNAPPED ME?" I yelled at him, throwing whatever was closest to me, which happened to be the plate I had just eaten off of. The plate missed his head but hit the wall behind him with a thump, it shattered to pieces onto the couch, food splattering all over. His eyes glazed over with anger. "Did you just throw that at my head?" He asked in a scary calm tone. I gulped, "Maybe if you weren't such an asshole I wouldn't have." I spoke, my voice shaking as much as my body was. "I'm not an asshole!" He yelled at me as he stood to his feet, and in two long strides made his way over to me. He grabbed me by the arms and pushed his face inches away from mine. Wanting to push his buttons, I did the only thing I could think of. "Only an asshole would say that." I told him, my voice low. I was mad and I wanted to see what he would do. He held my arms down. I laughed in his face, "What are you gonna do? Hit me?" I pushed, I wanted to prove a point, I wanted to show him how much of a monster he truly is. He released his grip, "No. No I'm not." He stood up and walked towards the door, running his hands through his hair. I was surprised, but decided to push further, to see how far I could actually push him. "Why not? You've done it before." I pointed out, my confidence growing now that he didn't hit me for that. He leaned on the door frame, his back to me. "Because I can't do it!" He yelled, turning around to face me. He strode towards me, anger fuming off of him. I cowarded away from him, scared he was going to hit me again. But, I wanted him to, just to make a point, but he did something that surprised me a lot more. He kissed me. *** April Hastings, a seemingly normal girl is abducted by her handsome boss. Learning that the abduction was not ill intended, she starts to fall in love. *FIRST BOOK OF "IN THE SHADOWS" SERIES!*
