He had beautiful, dark green eyes.
      The kind you could get lost in.
    And I guess I did.

                                               ***

"You could break my heart into 
tiny
little 
pieces,
and I'd still pick them all up,
and put every single one back in your hands."

                                               ***

"You made your choice and I made mine. Just because you can't live with yours, doesn't mean you should shame me for mine. So do not, and I mean do NOT, challenge me you foolish boy."


***

Xavier Maverick is the prince of Athadia. Even though he is cold and stoic, he is loved by all the kingdom all because of his brilliant mother and father, Queen Thalia and King Derek. He has come of age to become the next king, but in order to do that, he needs a wife. And his parents have chosen the perfect girl: Xavier's childhood friend, Princess Astrid Brielle, daughter of King Abraham and Queen Lexa of the neighboring kingdom: Ivrealia.

Astrid Brielle may be a princess, but she acts nothing like it. She honestly would rather climb a tree or go riding on her horse Charlie through the woods than rule a kingdom. But when her parents wish to reunite her with Xavier and to marry her off to gain a stronger alliance with Athadia, Astrid wants nothing to do with it. She and Xavier have hated each other for 4 years now, and nothing they could say would change that. 


How can Xavier live up to his parents expectations and still find happiness? Will Astrid find out the truth of what really happened all those years ago? Will both the prince and princess overcome their differences and fall in love?

"Xavier, are you out of your mind? You can't hit anyone you want." I tried to pull him away from the guy. With his temper, he might send him to the hospital for quite a long time. Xavier suddenly stood up, he took my hands in his and pushed me to the wall behind me. He looked deep into my eyes. I got scared, I saw him angry before but never at me. He closed his eyes and put his head against mine. "You make me do crazy things. I'm not letting you talk to any guy from now on. I know I promised that I'll behave, but I can't see you talk or laugh with any guy." How can he be possessive over our juniors? ****************** Hello. I'm Anastasia. You can call me Anna. I'm a normal school girl. Like other kids of my age, I also don't like school. But my reason is different from them. I get bullied every day. It is the same at home also. My cousins bully me. My uncle and aunt only listen to their children. I get punished for their mistakes too. But suddenly one by one all of this bullying stopped. I don't know the reason, but from the moment I started spending time with this new guy who transferred to our school. Everything bad had stopped. *************** Hey. I'm Xavier. I hate school, but I still go there so I can entertain myself. I got expelled from 9 schools already. You see, I can't tolerate ill-mannered people and in school, you can find a bunch of them. So it is fun to make them see their place. In this new school, I found a girl. She was so fragile and oblivious of her beauty. She made me feel warm. So I followed her. I followed her literally everywhere. **************** Hello, lovelies. Hope you like the story.

Well, this is a journal, so you found it. Can I say Happy reading into my life? The life of a kid who hates love. This is a love story, darling. Well, I don't know about you but I hate school, I have been told it is a place to mingle with good souls and create moments to cherish and to get yourself educated. It is a place for youth to strive and bloom into respected beings. It is a sanctuary of sanity. If you ask me, school is the definition of drama as it is the birthplace of drama. Youth is the ambassador of chaos, you can either make the chaos good or bad, worth the pleasure or the very cause of death. Life is too short to live with a sane mind, there is no harm in breaking rules to live life the way you want as long as it makes you good. As with any classical young adult romance, this book is filled with horny, hormone imbalance, chemical imbalances, not loved and very well-loved, mature(childish), caring(cruel ) teenagers. All of this drama only started because of one guy, Mark Austin Jawa, the golden boy of Winter Abyss High School. Maybe Mark had nothing to do at all.It was just about 4 kids learning to live Did I forget to say, there are inhuman beings as well in this story? There are romance, drama, revenge, supernatural, chaos, lust, betrayal, hate, friendship, mental health issues, Johnny Christopher Depp || fan and hater, selenophile, diversity of nations and their skins and of course, there are gays. There are also LGBTQ ++ in this pure chaos-filling story of 21st-century humans and the Novel Coronavirus 2019 Disease better known as Covid 19. Oh, I almost forgot, this tale is even more screw up than the famous love story of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare.

And Pyxis, the fairy city they preside over, has never been more peaceful or prosperous. This is the appearance they need the fairy world to behold. The truth is too cruel to fathom. They are painfully vulnerable. Evil is never very far. So they bury it deep and cling to the hope it won't claw its way out. Scott MacRae knows in his gut that Andromeda will return and that his days could be numbered. It's no wonder he can't focus or sleep at night. His heart is full of holes. There is only one void he can possibly fill - if any. But as both a father and leader, any action he takes will have profound consequences. Joseph believes what he wants to believe - that which makes him admired and respected, a fairy celebrity, everything he wasn't in his former human life. But his truth lurks in the shadows too.

And yet he still wants what he can't have, an ideal he perpetually fails to obtain. Cassiopeia was always a princess, but for the first time ever, she's assumed the lifestyle she was never granted during her mother's reign. Despite the dress fittings, grand appearances, and a high-profile engagement, she doesn't have any real power in the kingdom she will supposedly inherit someday. She is small. She is wingless. She is not her mother. Her world never fails to remind her. Does it even matter? It's hard to say. Something is missing. Or someone. And she isn't who she once was. The higher they rise, the harder they'll fall? Christopher MacRae. He left four years ago and no one has heard from him since. Is he dead or alive? Is he the solution or the problem? And where is Andromeda anyway? If Christopher and his allies haven't vanquished what remains of her army...then who will?

Anayra, Aira, and Aadya have been best friends since forever, and let's just say, if their lives were a reality show, it'd be canceled for being too chaotic. Anayra's a single mom who can barely keep it together-and now there's a new guy on the scene who's either a blessing or a disaster -she's not sure which yet. Aira, who's lived her entire life dodging love like it's a public speaking class, suddenly meets a guy who's somehow managed to break her heart and her stubborn "I don't do relationships" rule, all in one epic swoop. And Aadya? Well, she's still absolutely in love with her ex, Kian, even though they broke up years ago-and of course, he shows up again, like an emotional wrecking ball, destroying any semblance of peace in her life. Throw in three men-one of them Kian, obviously-and the mess goes from bad to oh my god, who let this happen? They're all tangled up in love triangles, quadrilaterals, and whatever other shapes you can imagine. But through all the crying, laughing, awkward silences, and "Did that just happen?" moments, they still manage to hold it together because, hey, what are best friends for if not to cheer you on as you make questionable decisions and laugh at your complete inability to manage your love life? In the end, it's one big mess of feelings, friendships, and romance gone hilariously wrong- but at least they have each other to survive the chaos.
