We both leaned against the old house, peeling paint digging into my arms as I a glanced into the window.
She was there!
Raising her gun toward the Sheriff, she took careful aim as a maniacal sneer formed on her lips.
"You disgust me," she snarled with unbounded rage. Throwing her head back suddenly, she let loose a loud, evil laugh, straight from the bowels of hell.
"At least this way, I get to personally witness your last breath," she grinned as she cocked her gun. "Quite the consolation prize, I assure you."
I glanced over at Frank, who nodded as he tensed himself to break through the door. Cocking my own weapon, I knew that this was the moment...capture or kill, this all ended now.
"I damn you to Hell Sheriff," she shouted then, "You should feel right at home there."
Frank burst through the door with me close behind...it was the moment that my life changed...forever!

The Shooting
'What would be your last thoughts if you knew, your life was to be taken, in less than the blink of an eye? How would you live being in constant fear? Or being watched? Or not knowing when it will strike?' Lenora is your cliché teenager in school. The average, introverted, and shy student. But with a piquant and witty side. She always valued everything in life; never choosing to be greedy and cruel, content with how everything is. When something life changing happens, Lenora begins to set out with a new mindset; on the hunt to find the 'mysterious person' who endangered her life. There was something much more than just a 'supposed' shooting. Come and see what lurks behind the dark corners. From behind the rustling bushes. To where the mysterious 'clicks' keep coming from. Come and understand one's betrayal and thirst for utter vengeance. (SNEAK PEEK): ''Why are you doing this!'' Lorena screamed. The ropes restraining her tightened. She can feel the cool tip of the knife run along her half-naked body. Her tears threaten to fall; but she does not let them. ''Oh baby, it's because you're letting me.'' He whispers. ''Let's play.'' © Goofballnerd 2015 / Edited 2018Complete
Fire And Ice (Lost&Found Series)✔
53 Chapters. (Completed) I pushed her back and she landed on the bed with a slight bounce. She swallowed hard and her right hand shot up to her stomach. My eyes watched her every movement as if she was my prey. I knew for a fact that she was now equally scared and nervous. I slowly made my way towards the bed and parted her legs with my knee, hovering above her. "I suggest you watch that mouth around me." I spat. Her breath hitched as our faces were now only a centimeter apart. Without giving it much thought, I leaned in and captured her lips in a bruising kiss.

The Clockwork Killer ✓
Highest ranking: #404 in Mystery/Thriller ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ "Choose." I heard the gun cock against Georgie's head. She suddenly screamed, "No! Luna! You can't choose me over you! Save yourself!" The killer said, "Silence," and Georgie obeyed, but I had heard her. "Choose, or I'll choose for you." The murderer made a point of pressing the muzzle harder into Georgie's temple. I looked into my best friend's deep brown eyes. I knew what I had to do. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ NOTE: This was my first book on Wattpad, so it's not great. The plot is unoriginal and it starts out boring but I somehow managed to save it in the last 3 or so chapters. Read at your own risk of cringing so hard your head will fall off.

ISAAC MORANO
Wanted by the FBI and the Police Department, Isaac struggled to keep up, his breath ragged and his side throbbing with pain from a fresh wound. The ambush had been brutal, and he had made the decision to split from his men, instructing them to continue without him. He would create a distraction to buy them time to escape. His mind raced as he stumbled through the night, seeking refuge in a place he hoped would offer him safety. He knocked on the door of an old Victorian house, his knuckles trembling as he braced himself for whatever lay beyond. "Coming," came a soft voice from inside. The door creaked open, revealing a beautiful woman who froze at the sight of him. Her eyes widened in shock as she took in his disheveled appearance and the blood oozing from his side. "Can you help me, please?" Isaac's voice was a desperate whisper, barely audible over the pounding of his heart and the distant sounds of sirens. Catherine, though clearly alarmed, sensed the urgency and gravity in his tone. She was a doctor, and her instinct to help overpowered her fear.Complete![Forever Fighting | ✔️ | [previously Espionage: double-cross]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/266180136-256-k887286.jpg)
Forever Fighting | ✔️ | [previously Espionage: double-cross]
Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing. [previously known as Espionage: double-cross] Thanks for reading :)Complete
I hate that I loved you.
"What the heck is this Ibrahim??!" The man looked up at her bored and then lowered his gaze to that envelope. A small smirk formed on his face and he said, "I thought you could read English, Anaisha!" He scoffed and continued his work on the laptop. At this Anaisha got more angry and shouted at him, "YOU FILED A CASE AGAINST ME!!?" She hit the table with her palm. She was shocked. She don't know what happened suddenly. Till yesterday they were good. Atleast she thought that everything was good between them then why suddenly the first thing she saw this morning is this official letter from court?! "Yes I did! So?" He said still looking at his laptop without paying any attention at her! "And why? I never did anything like what you accused me of!" She shouted loudly but her voice broke a little by the end of her line. She was on the verge of breaking down completely. She is working with Malik Empire from last 3 years and now she is accused of Embezzlement. When all she did was being honest with the company. "And.. and why are you behaving like this? I'm.. I AM YOUR GIRLFRIEND FOR GOD'S SAKE!! " She broke down in tears as she finally said this line. Yes. Anaisha and Ibrahim were in a relationship from last 2 years. They have known each other from last 5 years. They are in a live-in relationship. "Well You 'were' my girlfriend because from now you're not. And also about why I did this!?" He got up from his chair and took steps towards Anaisha. She didn't back off. "You think I loved you? What a fool! Do you really think that I WOULD LOVE THE PERSON WHO IS THE DAUGHTER OF MY PARENTS' MURDERER??!" He shouted loudly and gripped her arms tightly. She flinched at his words and she was shocked at what he was saying. Because for Anaisha, her father is a Superhero and she believe that her dad could never harm anyone. 🥂🥂🥂 Join me in this love-hate journey of Anaisha and Ibrahim.Complete
