Twin At First Sight |✓|
I felt the tears rise and I looked down for a minute, gathering all of my resolve. I looked up again and stared him right in the eye. "You know what? I trusted you!" I jabbed my finger in his chest and he recoiled. "I trusted you and you broke my trust. I trusted you to keep the secret. I trusted you enough to tell you everything. I trusted you to keep my trust. I trusted you." I told him and he flinched as my voice broke in the end. I looked away from him and at everyone else in the room. "And you wonder why I never trust. You know what? I can't do this. I'm done." I scoffed and shoved past Aiden but paused at the door, not looking back. "Oh, and if you are still curious? Go ahead and hack into the file. Don't say that I didn't warn you." ************************************************************** Alexis and Aiden are siblings with Aiden being 11 months older than her.

Unexpected Love (Unedited)
'They sealed the deal by planning on getting you married to him...' Blake's words ran through her mind repeatedly. Kathleen's world comes crashing down when she finds out that her mom and dad arranged a marriage for her with none other than her rival since middle school, Nathan Heinrich. She never, once in her life, thought that she'd be married to Nathan. To add more ridicule to it, she hasn't seen him in the past 10 years nor is she planning to see him till their marriage or so she thinks. Nathan Heinrich is none other than your typical average player who has the whole world under his feet. With his charming good looks and sparkling green eyes, he could get any dame in this world. Not really into the thought of a married life with a wife and kids, he is the type who really wants to enjoy his bachelor life along with the playboy reputation. What if his parents thought that the best way to tame Nathan's playboy habits is to get him hitched to none other than his arch rival, Kathleen Holzknecht? She has got the money, the looks, the charm and everything, but why Nathan despises her is totally something ridiculous. With Kathleen storming into his life like a whirlwind, will Nathan change for good and leave all his habits of sleeping around and be the man of Kathleen's dreams or will bitter memories of past affect their life after marriage? Read more to find out what happens..... A/N This was my very first story on Wattpad, guys. This first few chapters would be short and not really...good, I'd say.
