Caged By Him
"WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT INSIDE YOUR HEAD?" He trapped my trembling body between his arms and slammed his fist into the wall. I flinch at the sound as I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR CRYING. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NEVER LEAVING. THIS IS YOUR LIFE NOW, WITH ME" He spits, anger consuming his voice as I push myself further against the wall. Shutting my eyes closed and turning my face to the side as I do. Moments later, I feel his rough hand on my waist and his finger grazing my cheek. "Look at me, love." His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn. You need to learn that you won't be going anywhere. You're mine." With that being said, his other hand slides down to my waist "Your entire body, your mind, your soul. All mine."

Love Comes Unexpected ✔
I quickly turned away from him, to get the hell out of the room. But he caught my arm and pulled me back into his chest. Shit. Fuck. He buried his face in my hair, arms enclosing around me and whispered into my ear, ❝I thought things between us were getting better, is this how your gonna lie and ruin it?❞ I could feel him smiling against my ears, his fingers gently raking through my hair. I didn't reply. This is exactly the situation I didn't wanna get into, cause I know I melt when he says shit like that. ❝You gonna give up resisting me now?❞ His lips barely touching my ears.

Her Secret Admirer
She was pretty and kind-the quiet girl who never dated, never even cared to try. Relationships meant nothing to her, because her heart already belonged to one person: Alex. She had never met him. Never seen his face. Yet his presence haunted her dreams, his words etched themselves into her soul. He was a mystery... and her obsession. But then everything changed. A new student arrived. Striking. Magnetic. Dangerous in ways she couldn't put into words. For the first time, her heart raced for someone real-someone who wasn't just a shadow in her mind. Now she's caught between two worlds: the faceless Alex who has claimed her heart for years, and the boy who stands before her, awakening something she can't control. But nothing is as it seems. Alex isn't just a dream. And this new boy isn't who he appears to be. To find the truth, she must confront the impossible, uncover secrets buried in darkness, and face a choice that could destroy her. Because love can be a lie. And sometimes... it's deadly.
