I dropped onto my knees and finally let all my emotions flow out of me.
"Holly is that you?" Ryder cautiously asked as he put his hand on my shoulder.
"Don't touch me!" I growled
"Holly I'm sor-"
I couldn't take it anymore, my bubble that was building up inside me finally burst. "Don't you dare act like you know me Ryder Black! The only person in this world that I truly trust is my best friend Jake! Just leave me alone, ok you don't actually care."
"Mark my words Holly West, I will find out what has made you become the way you have become because I truly do care about you." Ryder responded softly as he backed away from me.
Holly West has always been your typical bad girl. She never lets anyone walk over her and she pushes everyone away and has one true friend, Jake. But what happens on the day she meets Ryder Black, will she finally break down her walls or shut out everyone forever!

It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together.

With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest.

Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Complete
