Milk-ing Love Proposal
Love Pattranite is just your average, overworked events manager trying to help her best friend, View, escape another dreadful blind date. The plan? Show up in her place, ruin the date, and get View off the hook easily. However, Love unknowingly crashes the wrong blind date. And the person sitting across from her, staring in shock, is none other than Milk Pansa company's icy, no-nonsense CEO. Love is mortified. Milk is amused. Meanwhile, Milk's grandfather is completely exhausted from Milk rejecting all the blind dates and has finally had enough. "Fine. You don't want a man? I'll give you a woman!" Unfortunately, Love's spectacular date-ruining skills only make things worse. Grandfather mistakes Love for Milk's actual date and, in an unexpected twist, decides: She's the one! Before Love can process what's happening, she's roped into a business marriage proposal-all because Milk needs to fend off further matchmaking attempts, and Love just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time (or the right place, depending on who you ask). What starts as a convenient (and completely fake) engagement soon turns Milk's meticulously organized life into absolute chaos. Love-clumsy, unpredictable, and absolutely unfiltered turns every formal event into an experience, every board meeting into a spectacle, and every attempt at faking romance into something way too real. The worst part? Milk doesn't mind at all. Inspired by Business Proposal Cover Photo Credits: @turn_word (saturn_)Complete
Wolves Den
Remi has always loved the forest, the different sounds, smells, the way she could get lost in it and never have to go home to her non-existent parents.

But one day Remi is attacked, and nearly killed, by a man in the forest. When she wakes up everything's different. She feels something inside her, a power, but she has no idea what happened to her. All she remembers is the man's strange yellow eyes. When three new boys show up at her school, one with yellow eyes, asking her question she gets nervous. And then one night while heading to go get her friend she's taken and thrown into a world she didn't know existed. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Remi?" Jen says suddenly. "Hmm?" I hum back. "Do you ever wish you could just live in the forest? Away from everyone and everything?" She looks at me. "Free." We stare at each other for a long time. I see the real meaning in Jen's eyes. Her worries for going home to her overly strict parents. Her fears for the future and the unknown in general. "If we lived in the forest we wouldn't have gummy bears any more." I comment to lighten the mood. She doesn't find it funny. "I'm serious Remi! What if we did run away?" "Jen, we can't just run away. I know your parents are strict but I truly think they just want what's best for you." She says nothing. For a moment I fear she's mad at me but then she puts her head on my shoulder and I know we're okay.Complete
Indecorous
(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "Attract a lot of attention, huh beautiful?" His voice hit me like a wall, absurdly catching me off guard. It was deep, sensual, something any girl (or boy) could melt over. I was sort of speechless, yet trying my best to appear unafflicted. "Only the wrong ones." That was definitely drunken me talking, as I didn't usually have that much confidence. His lips twitched up into a smirk, expressing that he understood my comment. "Does that mean that I'm in that category?" My palms began to grow sweaty and my heart rate picked up, but otherwise my body remained relaxed, appearing completely fine. It similar to when you're on autopilot, completely withdrawn due to intoxication. "I suppose not," I crossed my arms, putting on this seductive persona just for him. This fueled his smirk, about to murmur another comment before I cut him off. "You'll have to show me, though." *** Amelia Hollis was a 23-year-old writer at one of the local publishing companies, assisting a very handsome man and writing articles left and right. Her and her best friend, Aviary, lived together in a cute little apartment off the central part of the city, yearning to create new memories and important moments. Amelia always lived for the moments, taking in every little detail and savoring it like it was her favorite meal. She was an optimist, hoping to change peoples lives with her dreams. James Vallette was a 34-year-old CEO, building his company from dirt with the help of his brother. He was a realist, not really having time to deal with dreams or even love. He knew this the night he laid eyes on Amelia. It was only casual; what harm could a one-night stand do? Oh yeah, he's her dad's boss.Complete
