"I cant believe I'm stuck here." I announced as I sat down, staring at my surroundings. There weren't many.
"I cant believe I'm stuck here with you." Chase said, as he sat down, and leaned up against the cave wall. I sent a glare his way.
"would you rather be stuck in here with Jackson up there?" I said, pointing at the very small hole in the cave we were officially trapped in. That was our only source of light, but it was no where near big enough to get us out.
"Point taken." Chase retorted, as I sighed. I could just barely make out his face, seeing the hazel eyes staring right back at me.
"What are we going to do?" I asked him. He looked over my way.
"I don't know. Our phone's are dead. We cant call out to anyone." He stated. I nodded.
"What happens if they cant get us out in time? JAO will win. We cant let Ethan's company win." I questioned.
"I cant exactly let your company win either, princess. We are separate companies." He pointed out. I looked into his eyes.
"Yes, but at least our companies have the same idea. We want to preserve the artifact, and restore its history to the world. All JAO wants to do is sell it for a quick buck." I played with my hands, that were resting on my lap.
"True. But just so you know, when we get out of here, I'm running. It's every man for himself," He realized his mistake and cleared his throat. "Or every woman for herself." He blushed harshly.
"Definitely."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She later finds out that her rival, Chase Manson, Is on the same mission, for the same prize. Will Bree succeed in her very first hunt, or will someone else get in the way?

CHRISTIAN by tahira_chowdhury
24 parts Complete Mature
CHRISTIAN One moment he's being a complete flirt and giving her goosebumps. The next moment he's being a jerk. One moment he's saying things that remind her of things she doesn't want to think about. The next moment he's back to being the cold Mr. Christian Reeves. As if he wasn't talking about them a while ago. "Ughhhh he's so frustrating!" Camille whisper screamed holding her head with both hands. "Okay what did I miss?" Jenna asked suspiciously. "What do you mean?" Camille bit her bottom lip and asked innocently. She knew exactly what Jenna meant. "Cami darling, I've known you for years now, I know something's up. I can tell from your agitation. So spill it, what was it?" Camille knew she wasn't getting out of this. "Umm... okay. Christian and I... kind of... might have... had... a-one-night-stand." Camille said carefully measuring all her words carefully at first and then saying the last part at once hoping Jenna wouldn't catch it. Jenna's eyes went as wide as her mouth was right now. Seeing her react that way Camille hastily added. "But wait it isn't recent. It happened like more than a year ago and I didn't know what to do about it so I just slipped out without saying anything, you know like without a note. Or anything. I just left." Jenna was still processing the whole reveal. "In a hotel room." "Girl you've got to be kidding me right now!" Camille gave her a guilty 'I-wish-I-was' look. "He is one of the hottest most eligible bachelor of California right now and you seriously left him in the hotel room without saying anything what were you thinking?" Jenna finally spoke. "I didn't know he was Christian and I didn't even know who Christian Reeves was for God's sake. And let's just say it might have bruised his ego." "You are damn right it did." Jenna laughed her heart out. "I'm in so much trouble, aren't I?" She covered her face with her hand. And Jenna couldn't stop laughing.

"When do I get to meet you wolves?" I ask. "Whenever you want. Just not right now," Blake says. "We would lose control and they will take you right here right now." "What are your wolves saying?" I ask. "To smash you to the wall and pound you, so you won't be able to walk for the next week," Kole says. I look into his eyes to see them pitch black. I know that I am talking to his wolf. "I'm Tyler, Kole's wolf. It's so good to finally meet the love of my life." "It's nice to meet you Tyler," I say. I look over into Blake's eyes to see them matching Kole's. "What's your name?" "Alex," he responds. His eyes look over my body. "Your are so beautiful princess. Please let us mark you. Please," he begs. "Alex, that is enough." I look into Kole's eyes to see them back to normal. Alex whispers in my ears, "one day, we will go so rough with you and you will be screaming our names." I shiver under his words. He smirks knowing the effect he has on me.

Her Rare Sight by Sinbi22

"I did try to ask nicely and multiple times, I might add. The time for being nice has come to an end since it doesn't seem to work with you." He passed by the table and stepped down. There weren't many places for her to hide in here but the creature did tell him Amelia came into this room. "Please come out and talk to me." He waited a beat for a response but he didn't get one. "Fine, let me tell you a story. I used to be able to see the creatures clearly but an accident happened when I was younger that damaged one of my eyes. Now they're just blurry to me. But you . . . you can see them clearly and see rare objects. I want you to join me. Be my eyes." He waited again for a few moments for a response he still didn't receive. A thought occurred to him. What if she was hoping that he'd just leave the room? He chuckled quietly to himself in amusement. "I'm not going anywhere. But you know what? It's fine if you decline my offer again. Just know that if you don't come with me, you could come home to find that your parents are dead because of a work accident or some other natural cause. You wouldn't want that would you?" He paused just one more time and began speaking again. "If you come with me today, your parents won't have to die. I can keep them safe. If you don't give me an answer, I'll have my creature kill your parents now and I'll still take you. Do you want dead parents or living parents? It's your choice." Amelia came out of the bay window seat compartment. She was trying to hide her fear and anger. She didn't care what happened to her but she didn't want her parents to die because of her. She took a deep breath. "Fine . . . I'll come with you." He smiled smugly, "Smart choice. There's no need to be afraid of me. Your parents are safe now and I won't hurt you." "It's because you need me for my abilities." She said more of a fact than a question. She knew he wouldn't kill her because he needed her. "Correct. Now, let's tell your parents the good news."

Sequel to "Escape from the Witch Hunters" Jack kept walking towards her and Ami kept backing up until finally she hit the wall. "Why are you doing this?" "Doing what?" he had an arrogant smile on his face and he got closer to her. "That." she nodded towards his closing in on her. Her breathing and her heart beating picked up speed. "Is it wrong for me to want my own wife?" his own body was nearly pressed against hers and he rested his head between her head and shoulder. "It is when you, just days before, resented the very fact that I was alive." she closed her eyes, trying to steady her breathing. "Maybe I've had a change of heart." he looked at her. She looked at him with her blue eyes. "I don't think so." "What if I said I loved you?" he whispered hoarsely.

You V.S. Mafia by scaryberry123
21 parts Complete
[COMPLETED] "Shoot," Joey mumbles, letting out a string of profanities under his breath. We turn around to find a group of men, all with guns, standing where we just came from, and they look pissed... probably because they were forced to run through this tunnel after us. "Thought you could get away, didn't you?" The man who I saw before asks. His husky voice booms in the hollow tunnel, reverberating off of the dirt walls. His voice sounds familiar, and a realization strikes me. It sounds like the man from my dream. I remember him holding a gun and wearing a blue suit, smiling evilly at me. "Leave us alone," Joey says, sounding dangerous and snapping me out of my thoughts. The levity of the situation hits-we need to get out of here. I look around for a route of escape and thankfully I see a light, literally, at the end of the second tunnel. I let out a small, almost inaudible, gasp and nudge Joey. He looks at me and I subtly gesture with my head to the second tunnel. He glances at it and immediately we are on the same page. His jaw sets and he looks at the group. The man speaks up again, chuckling darkly-a sound I will never forget and will be permanently etched into my brain, "You can thank your father for starting this mess." -------------------------- Liza was a normal teenaged girl, living the average life that an eighteen year old girl should be living. She had good friends, good grades, a happy family, a loving boyfriend, and an overall content life, seemingly having everything a person could ask for. However, when she somehow gets thrown into the mix and is in the crossfires of a brutal mafia war that she has no business being a part of, things spiral out of control and she has to do whatever it takes to regain her freedom. In this hectic adventure of gun fights, torture, bank robbing and intimidating mafia men, Liza has to face it all, putting her average life on the line in order to defeat the bad guys and go back to her normal way of living.
