IT'S THE YEAR 1962. Newly minted flight stewardess, Anastasia Locroft was more than thrilled to finally land the job of her dreams, to do the one thing she's always wanted to do - see the world. While not particularly gifted with the best upbringing, what she lacked in etiquette lessons, she made up for in her natural charms and ability to stand for her convictions. 

A suburban boy raised in the southern plantations of Aslyrtown, Dean Hollingsworth had been showered in equal parts privilege and expectations growing up. Everything had been easy for him, from work, friendships and relationships - until it all came crumbling down. The love of his life was nowhere to be found. And three months later, he was still grieving. 

A free spirit healing a tortured soul... they always said it never ended well.

''Let me help you, ma'am,'' a man who was probably the flight attendant said. Damn. Ryerson Reeds even had handsome flight attendants. The man stooped a bit, leaning close to her and taking the seatbelt from her hands. He was holding eye contact and Lyla felt herself grow amused as she stared back at him. He was going to start buckling her up before someone cleared their throat loudly. They both looked up to meet Reeds' blue-green eyes. ''I think I can help my wife, thank you,'' he said. Lyla's eyebrows shot up. The dude barely talked to her and he was already getting possessive? How does that even add up? Reeds stopped taking the two parts of the seat belt in his hands, ''you couldn't do this without help?'' he muttered to her savagely. Lyla glared at him, before he could even get the belt close to her she took it from his hands and snapped it in the right place. She gave him a sickly sweet smile and Reeds simply scoffed and walked to his seat. The rest of the plane ride was quiet. One would think after that small exchange they would start having some kind of conversation. Wrong. ___________________ This isn't a cliche story where the girl falls for the guy by a simply little gaze. She's stubborn, she's maybe a little relatable, and she's assertive. But she didn't think she was for him. Lyla Vell; the name itself oozed the confidence which was her, and Ryersoon Reeds? Two words to describe him: Arrogant and plain painful. And when these two personalities are in an arranged marriage. Shit about to go down. ___ This is my first Wattpad story. Hope you'll like it! This entire story is NOT mature. Only the last few chapters are and you can still finish the plot without reading those few mature chapters. For those who are hesitant to read the story because it is tagged mature, I'm promising you only the last few chapters are mature, you can read chapters 1-19 without any disturbance of smut. That was for those who're hesitant. Love you. DON'T COPY MY WORK!

Book 1 of The Fly Series . . . His eyes turn red and his jaw begins to tremble. "I'm toxic. I'm arrogant. I'm awful. What else? I'm a misogynist. A sadist. There's no good in me. I screwed up your life. I disgust you. I insulted your mother. You won't ever forgive me." He tightens his jaw before slamming his hand on the wall beside my head. "I know you want to say these things so say it. Tell me, Firefly. Tell me how traumatizing I am. TELL ME!" I don't hesitate. "I love you." His hooded eyes flaming with anger turn pale. He never expected the confession. Heck, I never expected this confession. 𝘕𝘰 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘴 𝘢 𝘨𝘪𝘳𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘪𝘯 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘣𝘶𝘭𝘭𝘺. . . . Elena Summer is an upbeat, optimistic girl who is hopeful of a bright happy future despite her dark turbulent past. She is all set to begin her Senior Year back in her hometown--the one that the Summers eloped from when she was three. Justin Castor is the byword for toxicity, arrogance, and cold behavior. He isn't a bully by nature, he's a bully by choice. He embraces the darkness as his kingdom. But every dark villain is known to have a darker past, right? Less of a grumpy-sunshine genre and more of a dark-meets-light spin-off when the city of Cadford unites these paradoxes with one tangled story that all leads back to the past.

As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him.
