He stares at my face, analysing, calculating. He simply lets go of my collar and my head drops back on the ground. I groan in pain. With that, he stands up and brushes himself off, "You're going to be my personal bitch, pretty boy. You're going to assist me on errands, sell some drugs, buy me fucking coffee- whatever I want. If you don't do what I tell you to do, I will murder every person you care about, including the hobo back there. Do I make myself clear?" "Y-Yes," I reply hoarsely, standing up and cowering into myself. -•- Zackary Whitlock is an American college student stuck in a cycle of boring days, average grades and not getting laid.

Finding Life Again
Raised by cold parents who never offered him a glimpse of affection, Kai dedicated his life to earning the love he never received at home. Successful in his studies and devoted to his passions, he found a romance that ultimately shattered him, coupled with the harsh realization that he had failed and that his parents would never acknowledge him. A year after his graduation, Kai felt lost and unsure of how to chart his path forward. Clinging to the one person who had never left his side, he resolved to confront the traumas that haunted him. He never anticipated that the person who would help him the most would be someone he had met right at the beginning of his journey. SMALL EXCLAIMER/ The story doesn't visually describe sexual scenes. There are just a few makeout scenes. The first few chapters are describing a person who is slightly depressed and some light anxiety behaviour situations. It is not a heavy book. The characters are not abusive. The relationships are healthy, and I hope my book is as positive and easy to read as I wanted it to be. However, for some people can be triggering as there are mentions of anxiety and social awkwardness.Complete

The problem? He didn't know what. But what about that man who recently started visiting the shop? He definitely wasn't one of the regulars; his face, you would recognize.
