"Your favorite color?" "Hmm." Davon let out as he leaned in towards her. He inspected Scarlet's cold eyes with full concentration, and after a few seconds, he finally responded when he moved away from her. "Auburn." ♢♦♢ Scarlet. She was a nightmare brought to life. A horror story to be told around campfires. The name alone struck fear into the most bravest of men or women. At the age of just 27, she had grown to be the most fatal assassin to walk the face of the Earth, and no one even knew what she looked like. Scarlet purposely left harmless traces behind with every kill, which served as a reminder to everyone that she still lurked in the shadows. But on one occasion, a dark-haired man with even darker eyes left a trace on her heart. 18+Complete
Buds of Despair
She blocked the actual hit amazingly enough but her body couldn't possibly withstand the weight of a direct hit from someone that size, she was still a child, physics was a law. She was kneeled down as he showed up in front of her before she could catch her breath, she felt her jaw dislocate as his knee crashed into it. She fell to the ground and tried to warp teleport away but he held onto her. Pain and fear again even away from hell was this world really this messed up. "You're an interesting little girl so I will give you an opportunity instead of an execution. Join the Guards, work under my orders on missions, pledge your loyalty to the crown. He will still be locked up but that is his mother's wish. I have no control of those but I won't hurt him or you if you anymore if you agree. You can go to the hospital and get taken care of. I simply must find out who you are girl. Do you have a name? Where did you come from? This seems beneficial to you no? Oh my I broke your jaw you can't speak. Then just shake your head yes or no for now. Do you accept my offer or face execution the choice is yours." Isabella looked over at Kuro and turned a determined gaze back on Jamiston nodding yes as she pushed her jaw back into place and concentrated on healing the broken teeth, bones and cuts in her mouth. "Marvelous! I simply had to make you mine your strength can help me climb up the ladder in no time." His smile and the sound of genuine happiness coming from him made her sick. Pledge herself to him? Missions? What ladder did he need to climb? She shook her head. Whatever. She concentrated on activating her healing crysts even though she was exhausted, healing him and projecting her barrier at the same time had drained her faster than she had noticed now that she wasn't moving.Complete

Tried For Error
"Previously known as... Scarletstroke: Girl assassin" * No hesitation * No killing of children * No killing of innocent people * No emotions * And defenitely, NO falling in love ~ Those are the main rules code named Scarletstroke, former assassin Scarlett Gonzales lives by. She is a highly-trained, highly-precise and highly-dangerous killer who considers herself the same as any other businesswoman, doing 'just her job' and convincing herself that she is dealing with 'just her target' rather than a person. She succeeds in contract killing better than any known assassin that ever existed and successfully ignores all feelings or emotions, knowing that they tend to make the "job" not go as planned. So when a new contract comes in and the mark is a certain gang leader that caught Scarlett's eye, she couldn't resist venturing deeper into a world filled with illegal activities on a personal mission to find out why he has a price on his head. Although, what she finds in that world isn't quite what she expected. Now, torn between duty and passion, Scarlett must decide if she pulls the trigger or if she becomes the target herself? Who knows, maybe he might be the answer to her deepest desires. Because her next target: Cayden Carlisle. +++ The culprit took in a deep, calming breath. "You may as well shoot me now, but just know that I am still going to kiss you." By the time he grabbed her waist with one hand and her wrist, connecting to the hand holding the gun, with the other... she was lost. Completely gone. She never stood a chance. His smell, his mouth, his soft growling noises. They were more than enough to disarm her. "I finally figured something out about you." He whispered, pulling her closer, trying to meld every part of her to him. "You display all your emotions through body language. In this case, your hand is betraying your mask." Every word of his was chosen for maximum impact. No wasted syllables, no extra breaths. Just facts.Complete
The Twist of Mate
Scarlet Montgomery lived her life as the pack slave. She was left Omega after her parents ditched her to become rogues. She is constantly tormented not only by the other pack members but by the Alpha himself. When she meets her mate on her eighteenth birthday, things take an unexpected turn that seem to leave her life in a downward spiral. She becomes more and more defeated with each awful instance sent her way. Will she be able to escape or will she be eaten alive by the wolves that she was thrown to? ************ Trigger warning! There is graphic content, abuse, violence, sexual violence, strong language...etc. If you can't handle any of those things, shy away from the book! Thank you ************ Excerpt: "You know, wouldn't it be fucked up if we were mates?" My face scrunched up, not only in disgust but worry about where he was going with his question. It would be the worst thing that I could imagine. There was a chance that if we were mates that he would lighten up and become the loving mate the moon goddess would have intended but that was a very slim chance. "Do you know what I would do if we were mates?" I shook my head; I didn't just mean it as I didn't know but I didn't want to know. He would probably reject me in the worst possible way he could think of. Or he would use the bond against me. I was already his slave but maybe there was something else that he could do that my innocent mind just couldn't conjure because I wasn't anything like him. I held my humanity close to me as if it would save me in the long run. I refused to be anything like my tormentors and I kept as true to myself as I could. He turned his body towards mine and I could see he was smirking at me but I got a bad feeling. "I would fuck you as hard as I possibly could and then I would kill you. You don't deserve to be a part of this pack but we need slaves just like any other. You truly disgust me and I hope that whoever your mate is rejects you. You're a sorry excuse for a she-wolf."Complete

The Fighter Girl
Pages are slowly being edited. Chapters may not add up with other chapters because of this, sorry. This story was written a couple of years ago and desperately needs to be edited! 7/3/2020 Scarlett Sage, a lost soul that turned to some night hobbies that aren't so legal. To be frank, Scarlett is a street fighter. Her opponents aren't only people though, but life itself. She is in a continuous battle with life, fighting for answers and to find who she is, more of what she is. Every night a reoccurring dream haunts her, but the second she lifts her head from that cushioned pillow, any memory of the nightmare is swept away except for those glowing scarlet eyes she can't seem to forget. Scarlett wants to sweep some parts of her life under the rug, including this dream, so when she turns 18 she takes her life into her own hands, ready for semi-independence from her dad Alex. Meet Jake Vance, a boy who has never had to lift his finger for anything or anyone. His hands are as soft as a baby's bum, with no callous present. He is the complete opposite of Scarlett, spoiled, not a hard worker, popular(envied by guys, loved by girls), and overall just a brat. To think he will one day be Alpha of a pack is quite worrisome with the way things look. But things always change. Nothing ever stays the same, and that's a promise.
