» The last time any of them saw her alive was the Fourth of July. She was wearing an white sundress that hung loosely on her body. Airy gasps of joy filled the air. She swung on his arm, barely holding on to the sparkling tiara atop of her head. Her beautiful smile had captured the heart of hundreds.
The roar of the crowd had begun after the coronation dance. She drew a sharp breath and let go of her partner's hand. He was no longer of use to her. "I promise to -" she swore to be the best the strawberry queen, they would ever live to see.
She swung around the room, flinging herself into the arms of any man or boy that dared to catch her. Everyone wanted to be her last dance partner. Yet it was Arthur Simmons; a lanky, pimply boy who had to shove his squared-glasses back up his nose, each time he glanced at his two left feet. Even with him, she was still the most beautiful and graceful person in the room. She didn't just exist. She lived. «

Disaster Ever After [COMPLETED]
As the crown princess, Gabrielle's life was never meant to be easy, yet the death of her father and an assassination attempt were far from what she expected. Now, forced to leave the only life she had ever know, she runs away with the help of Cedric, her closest friend and a dragon. However, her journey has just begun and there is much more blood and tears to be spilled. ~A NOT SO HAPPY EVER AFTER~ "And they lived happily ever after..." Gabrielle finished with a smile and set the book down. She loved happy endings, it made her feel so hopeful of her own life and how it would turn for the better. Her friend, on the other hand, didn't seem to share her opinions. "Do all these books have to finish the same way?" Cedric complained, leaning his head on the backrest of his armchair in exasperation. "It's starting to get old." "Well, what would you like? The princess to remain asleep? The beast to kill the old man? The thieves to escape?" she asked him curiously. She had never found happy endings to be boring, only, well... happy. "I mean, it would be nice for the dragon to win for once," he smirked mischievously, revealing one of his elongated fangs. His golden eyes flashed with magic for a second and a tiny tendril of smoke made its way from between his lips.Complete

His hands and ankles were hancuffed. Sitting cross-legged on the queen bed, was her. She lifted her eyes slowly, staring at Aden with a strangely distrustful expression. She sighed heavily, wiping at her eyes. Aden stared back at her, glowering. "This is kidnap." He spat. "What's your real name?" "Rebecca Chance." "What's your name?" He asked again. She turned to him with a wry grin. "Chloe Lew." Aden grit his teeth. "Do you have parents?" "No. They both died on my tenth birthday, as I blew out my candles, they both choked to death. I remember the look on their faces~ may they both rest in peace, Amen." "Tell me the fucking truth!" "Fine, fine, I was deserted in the middle of an amusement park~" "The truth!!" "Look Aden," She laughed. "I'm just trying to get you something for your hungry soul! Why don't you just believe one, I'll play along, and you'll never know the difference!" "Oh I'm sorry--was I supposed to muster up a whole fake life as well!?" "Just fucking decide what you want from me already Aden, won't you?" She groaned, rolling her eyes. Aden tensed in anger. He stepped before her, pushing her onto the bed. "Anything?" He asked. She slightly frowned, turning away. "Anything that'll shut you up." "Here's what I want--be my girlfriend for three years." Her round brown-orange eyes searched his. They stared and stared, as blank and pale as a sheet of paper. "Why the hell do you want me around for three years!?" "Two years is what I want, the third was just a buffer in case I couldn't get enough of you in two." "'Get enough of me'!?" She screamed in terror. "Just fuck me now!" "No. Two years." She threw a nasty glance up at him. "A year, ever since October 27, at about six p.m. Now get the hell out of my house." She spat. "You'll see Aden, I'll make you break up with me before a month passes." "Yeah, yeah~" Aden grinned. The Agreement was set.Complete

I looked up horrified to meet his cold blue eyes as they peered down at me, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, revealing some of his beautifully white teeth. "I beg your forgiveness, My prince. I did not mean to offend you by accepting your brother's invitation to dance." I swallowed hard, trying to fight the lump of fear that had started to build in my throat, "I did not think I was allowed to decline." Prince Thomas let out a little chuckle, "Oh, I am not mad at you, Emma." I shivered when my name left his lips, "You have just piqued my interest, that is all."

It Started With Hello
***** Emma Pear knew she wasn't the most popular girl in high school. Her nose was usually buried in a textbook, and her grades were as spotless as her reputation for always following the rules. "Nerd" was a label she'd long since embraced. Her parents, determined to keep her on the straight and narrow, packed her schedule with violin lessons, shifts at the local animal shelter, and tutoring sessions for elementary school kids. Emma barely had time to breathe, let alone experience "normal" teenage rites of passage like parties, late-night hangouts, or even just goofing off with friends. So when the captain of the football team-the captain-unexpectedly asked her to the school dance, Emma saw a glimmer of a different life. She practically begged her parents, and to her shock, they actually said yes. She had no idea that one night, under the glittering lights of the gym, would rewrite her entire story. Blake Black was the kind of high school loner who radiated an almost magnetic quiet. Girls whispered about him in the halls, drawn to his mysterious aura and the fact that he rarely spoke to anyone. Most of his time was spent wrangling his hyper little brother, Alex. Their parents, a brain surgeon and a heart doctor, were perpetually busy, leaving little time for their growing boys. His parents made it clear attending the school dance wasn't optional. They just wanted him to "act like a normal high schooler" for a few hours. Blake's plan was simple: show his face, then ditch the minute he decently could. He brushed off a parade of hopeful girls, already counting down the minutes until he could escape. But then he saw what happened to Emma. And unlike everyone else, he couldn't just stand by and watch.Complete
The Beast's Kryptonite
"Mine." His low growl of possession took my heart and the fate of my panties. They were soaked through with arousal. Damn it. I stroked his face as he sniffed the air. I prayed he couldn't smell my body's reaction to his. His hand slipped from my waist and traveled to the rip in my dress. "I can smell how much your body craves mine." My breath catches as his hand finds it home at the front of my panties. "Why don't you just submit yourself to me? Accept that you are mine and mine alone?" His hand was traveling lower, and he found my clit rubbing it through my underwear. I couldn't help but lean my head back and moan out at his skillful administration on my pussy."Moan, my name, my innocent mate. Tell everyone who is making you feel this pleasure."He had ripped my underwear off me and threw them across to hit another tree. He propped me up against the tree, causing me to hold onto his shoulders for support as his fingers took advantage of my spread legs, my dress completely exposing my pussy to him."Absolutely Ravishing." One of his thick fingers pumped its way into my hole, causing me to moan loudly into his ear. "Seth." ********* Seth Knight was not one for romance; everyone at Quillwood High School knew that. If you were a girl, you were in danger of being his next distraction. He would fuck a girl, the girl would fall in love, and he would leave. It was what had always happened. But there was a time before he had become a player. His old best friend, Belle Rivers, the innocent, sweet girl he had known since birth, kept the darkness at bay. Their mothers had been best friends since high school and conceived only months apart. They were destined to be. He was her protector, and she had kept him good, but when his dad died, the darkness crept into his heart, and the only one who could save him was forced to leave him.

Lilah
She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)Complete
