NOTE: THIS STORY IS RATED "MATURE" FOR STRONG LANGUAGE, SCENES OF VIOLENCE, AND (POSSIBLY) EMOTIONALLY DISTURBING MOMENTS.
There is a lake. The lake is small. Almost a pond, but not quite. A narrow cement walkway encompasses the water, embracing its near constant rippling. The warm rays of golden five o'clock evening light offer little comfort as I stare out over the water's collected surface. Beneath me is a beautifully carved rosewood bench with black wrought-iron arms and legs; strong and supportive. Always there for me when I need to sit, head in hands, unkempt, shaggy blond hair falling over disgraced, dirty blue eyes -- eyes that that sting as a single tear drips slowly down my burning nose, over my flushed, right cheek.

His Obsession
Adelaide meets her mate on the day she turns eighteen. However, she has a secret that no one knows about, not even her best friend. How long will she be able to keep this secret from her mate? And what will happen when he finds out? *** I never heard him make a sound, so his voice makes me jump as I hear him say "I can smell him on you" from right behind me. I turn around and dread fills me as I look into his dark eyes. They're glowing from the light from the fridge. I stumble over my thoughts but manage to squeak out "I thought you were out on a mission for your Alpha?" "I finished, and now I'm back." His eyes boring a hole through my head. "And I can tell that you've been slutting it up" he says with a look that makes me tremble. I start to shake my head, to try and persuade him that I haven't been doing anything wrong, but he forcefully grabs my jaw and stops me from shaking it. "You really shouldn't lie to me Adelaide, now I'm just going to have to teach you a lesson" he spits out at me. *** This isn't you typical story about werewolves, but I love the idea of mates, so follow these young adults on their journey with a supernatural twist.Complete
Mr. Forgettable
I wanted to let go, wanted to jump. But when I felt my hand release the railing I had been holding so tight, my knuckles turned white, I felt a tender hand grasping mine. My eyes were closed and I was prepared to feel the water hit my body. It never happend. I opened my eyes and quickly turned around, only just realizing someone was holding my wrist with a firm grip. My eyes searched the ones of the other and when our eyes met, I cried. Beautiful green eyes stared right into my soul. They weren't just green eyes. They were all different shades of green. They were the most unique, promising, caring eyes that ever looked at me. They matched with his wavy, dark-green hair. The rest of his face was covered with a thousand freckles and a soft smile. "Are you lonely?" Hi, so I came up with this idea when I was listening to Mr. Forgettable from David Kushner. This story is kinda based on the song, but also not really. It's mostly my own imagination that comes free when I listen to it :). ‼️BE PREPARED‼️ There is an TRAGIC ENDING. NO HAPPY ONE AND IM PROBABLY ALSO NOT GONNA WRITE AN HAPPY ONE (but maybe........ no (maybe) ) This story also includes; suicidal thoughts, self hate, swearing and mental issues, so read at your own risk. There will be warnings at the beginning of the chapters. Currently I'm planning on writing 3-5 chapters (It's a short story, I know :,) ), but maybe that'll change :)))))). Thank you for reading this little piece of bullshit and go read the story now :))) ~AshComplete

Her Last Wish
Tiana Collin's life is horrible and she knows this. With an abusive father and a druggie for a mother and with absolutely no friends at school, she didn't think her life meant much. So she decided to end it. But before she ended her life, she wants to feel loved. To feel cared for. To feel. So she decides to date one of the most popular boys in school, Tyson Bent, who she knows has a bet with his best friend. A bet to get her to sleep with him. She knows he doesn't really care about her. But sometimes it's nice to pretend. After all, she's only supposed to be with him for a week. After that... well after that she's not even going to be alive. Tyson had it all, the popularity, the looks, the money, everything. And he never missed a chance to flaunt his supposed perfection. Another thing about him is that he never backs down from a dare. So when his best friend dares him to sleep with a girl named Tiana, how can he refuse? But when he reads her diary, he has another mission. A mission completely different from the dare. A mission far more important than a dare. An added bonus being the chance to finally find out who he is and not who everyone else wishes for him to be. A chance to grow into the person he could be. TW// suicide, suicidal ideation, self harm, abuse, mention of drug addictionComplete
