Unwanted Wedlock
''Let me help you, ma'am,'' a man who was probably the flight attendant said. Damn. Ryerson Reeds even had handsome flight attendants. The man stooped a bit, leaning close to her and taking the seatbelt from her hands. He was holding eye contact and Lyla felt herself grow amused as she stared back at him. He was going to start buckling her up before someone cleared their throat loudly. They both looked up to meet Reeds' blue-green eyes. ''I think I can help my wife, thank you,'' he said. Lyla's eyebrows shot up. The dude barely talked to her and he was already getting possessive? How does that even add up? Reeds stopped taking the two parts of the seat belt in his hands, ''you couldn't do this without help?'' he muttered to her savagely. Lyla glared at him, before he could even get the belt close to her she took it from his hands and snapped it in the right place. She gave him a sickly sweet smile and Reeds simply scoffed and walked to his seat. The rest of the plane ride was quiet. One would think after that small exchange they would start having some kind of conversation. Wrong. ___________________ This isn't a cliche story where the girl falls for the guy by a simply little gaze. She's stubborn, she's maybe a little relatable, and she's assertive.

Love, Aurora
Aurora has always had one goal; to study and get as far away as possible from her house. Life was never easy for her but it seemed to get worse when her mother died. Years after her mother dies, she gets a letter. A letter saying she got into West Beverly Academy, a boarding school in London. She never wanted to go, she wanted to spend her last year of high school with her family before college but since it was what her mother wanted, she decided to go for it. Milo was definitely not the guy with the perfect life as shown on cameras. He was a racer- a car racer and was popular for that. But noone really knew what was going on behind those cameras. Because trust me, its as fucked as you could possibly think. But being strong, he dealt with it. He put on the show and dealt with shit behind the curtains, no matter how hard it was for him. He had an ego, and had a terrible attitude, but for once, those two personalities got him the girl. On the first day of school, Aurora sits on Milo's seat- typical right?

But he doesn't realise how much he actually needs Aurora. Way more than you think. Read along for a boarding school romance with lots of drama!Complete

On the day that Clattonia lost it all, she became a monster -- at least, that's what the public calls those who are viewed as a threat due to having supernatural powers. Now, never trusting and pushed over the edge, seventeen year old Clattonia Cessair has become a fearless leader for those who want to rebel against White Rabbit, a government organization that kills "monsters" and protects the public, whether they were actually causing a problem or not.

However, it wasn't like he was best friends with any either. But things just might change... Essence Kaori has always been shy, but the fact that she's been a "monster" since she was a child doesn't help her case.
