Ivy Young is a final year student whose only aim is to study hard, have good grades and get a scholarship to college. Everything is going according to her plans until she crosses the path of the school bad boy, Romeo Sparks. When she attended a party and got into a TRUTH or DARE game with him. Her first kiss is to be taken by him or she dates him for a month. He's a school playboy and she's just a school nerd. He's dangerous. He's reckless. He's too bad for Ivy.
Everyone has different lifestyles, different aims and goals. As for me, I've always been known as the nice girl. Even my best friend, Joey, would always say that I look too innocent and naive to be true; too good for anyone. Ever since dad died of lung cancer, I gave up on friendship. My two best friends betrayed me and then taunted me about my father's death. Since then, I've worked very hard to have good grades in school in order to attain a scholarship after high school to relieve mom. Those had been my utmost priority before this lame party came up .
Here I stood dressed in a body hugging knee length dress. Large blue eyes, pale blonde hair because that's who I am. Who Ivy Young. My eyes scanned my body and my pretty dress. If I'm truthful enough, I would say I look hot. This had been Joey's choosing not mine.
My brows drew together."Is this dress not a little short?" I asked, blinking my eyelashes rapidly.
Joey turned to look at me, her honey brown eyes widened."Oh my God! You look really beautiful, Ivy."She uttered.
She walked over to me and gripped my arm, pulling to her full length mirror.
I let out a little gasp as I watch myself in the mirror. I was mesmerized by my own beauty. If Joey had not been standing behind my back, I'd have denied that I'm not me. My deep blue eyes shone brightly, I've never realized how pretty they were before. My hair was packed in a bun, as usual. Joey told me to let me down but I refused, I prefer packing my hair. Nevertheless, I still look pretty.
I pressed my palms to my cheeks."I look hot, Joey."I muttered gently.
"Yeah" she agreed with me, grinning from ear to ear."Are you ready?"
I nodded my head in the affirmative. Physically yes. Mentally no!
"I'm kinda nervous," I said, picking my words one after the other.
It's the first time I'll be attending a party other than my neighbor's birthday party.
The corners of her mouth curled upwards."You'll be okay, stop worrying too much."She assured me.
I beamed a little smile at her. If not for Joey, I wouldn't be attending this party. Jake would be there so she dragged me along with her.
Joey's eyelids dropped."If I don't get Jake to notice me tonight, I don't think he'll ever will."She blurted out.
I drew in a long breath."Here we go again!"I muttered under my breath.
Jake Smith is the guy Joey had a sickening crush on. I don't know him that well but I've taken two classes with him this year. Within those times, I've seen nothing but rude behaviors of him. He is always with his gang of assholes. He's one of the bad boys in my school which makes me dislike him and the fact that he's the best friend with Romeo Sparks, the school badass, the handsome jerk with annoying curly hair.
I patted my best friend gently on her shoulder."He'll surely do, Joey. You only have to be positive."
I tried my best to cheer Joey up instead of saying what my mind really wants to say.
**Stop crushing on that asshole because he'll never look into your way. Ordinary and good girls like you are not his type.**
Her mouth curved into a wide smile. That's typical of her, she'll always smile even in the worst situations.
*****
By the time we arrived at the party, the party was already in its full swing.
"I need to go find Jake." Joey yelled over the loud blasting of music.
I forced a smile."Okay."I yelled back then watched her go off.
With Joey gone, I somehow felt alone. Lost.
I noticed some faces from school but couldn't make out any of their names. Parties like this are not meant for people like me. Friday night, I would rather be in my room watching TV series.
My eyes landed on Romeo Sparks, Evergreen High School's baddest boy amidst the crowd. Since Romeo was here, definitely Jake would be here.
I silently wished Joey got to tell him that she has an undying crush on him. I wondered what his reaction would be. I tried my best not to think about it.
I felt my throat dry as I waded through the crowd. I held my ears as I walked past one of the speakers, the bass pounding as loud as my heart. I turned around to check if I could see Joey. I felt left out being here on my own, because this party is just not my thing. I should be in bed by now watching my favorite TV series and probably crushing popcorn or curled up in bed reading my favorite romance novel.
I took a deep breath wishing that I hadn't come here at all. The air in here is suffocating .
I need air.
I spun around and searched for the next available exit. I sighed as I made my way to the door. I pushed through the kitchen door and pulled open the sliding back door. The cold summer breeze welcomed me as I stepped out onto the patio. I shut my eyes, inhaling the deep fresh air.
Some girl screamed, invading my beautiful moment. Natalie Portman was a tall beautiful cheerleader who spoke like a valley man but she wasn't as mean as she seemed. We've worked together a few times and I can tell she's nice. Actually we were kind of friends, I could go talk to her. At least there is finally someone to communicate with.
"Shit sorry!" I heard a masculine voice.
A second later, a cold liquid soaked the front of my dress. The guy stumbled and pulled himself up.
"My bad, really," he mumbled and sat down.
Could this party be any worse? My dress was filled with God knows what type of alcohol and I have nothing to change into. I took a second to look at the guy, he was wasted and I couldn't blame him. I shook my head then walked inside to find a bathroom. I pushed my way through the crowded hall in search of the damn bathroom. Luckily for me, I found one. I tried to close the door behind me but it wouldn't lock.
Soon I realized the lock was damaged, frustratedly I left it hanging. I only need to clean myself then get out.
I pulled out some wipers to clean my clothes but the stain only got worse. I folded my arms over my chest and leaned against the counter. I was about to go out but was met with some broad chest. I traced the chest to its owner, it was the other guy that spilled a drink on me earlier. He smelled cigarettes like earlier.
"Um... I'm.... Sorry, I'm just gonna go away" I mumbled as I tried to walk past him.
Something in his eyes told me it wasn't going to be that easy. Before I could go, he drugged his dirty fingernails into my sleeveless arm and squeezed. I'm really regretting that I wore this dress for the first time tonight.
"You look hot girl" his breath burned my skin and I whimpered in fear.
Tears pricked in the corner of my eyes.``Please.''I begged him.
"We're only going to have a little fun," he said, trailing his hands up my hips.
I squeezed my eyes shut to block the thought of his hands over my body as if that would help.
Before I could tell what's happening, I heard slight grunting and opened my eyes to see a toned skin beating the crap out of the guy who was touching me earlier. I heaved a sigh of relief, I was glad that the drunk man's hands were off my body.
I stood there, shocked. Whoever came to my rescue hasn't stopped, he's still beating the guy.
It took all of me to muster the courage to talk.
" Stop!" I screamed to the shadow still throwing punches.
He didn't stop. He didn't act like he heard my tiny voice.
"You're going to kill him, you need to stop now otherwise you'll get yourself in trouble" I screamed once again. What the hell is he thinking? The drunk guy will soon pass out.
Still nothing.
I used all my might to drag him off of the guy. That's the only thing I could think of.
It worked.
The idiot that tried to harass me ran out immediately.
Finally, I'm able to see my savior. My mouth fell open.
What is this jerk doing here?
How did he find us?
Series of questions ran through my head as I stared at my savior, still dazed. The moment I jerked myself to reverie, I moved away from him.
His forest green eyes bored into mine."What the hell are you doing in a male bathroom?"He questioned me.
I stood there staring into his eyes, nothing came out of my mouth.
He waved his hand."Hello dummy. Can you hear me?"
He shook his head, his nose wrinkled in disgust."Dumbass."He stated and walked away.
I blinked my long eyelashes rapidly. Shit! I just acted like a fool, like a dumbass just as he said. Why was I speechless when he was here?
Of course, I was shocked that Romeo freaking Sparks just saved me!
It was just a night. A night changed her life forever. * * After getting into a heated quarrel with her toxic boyfriend, Adriana followed her best friend to a night club in order to get her mind off her roller coaster relationship. She got caught up in the moment that she slept with a random guy. The next morning when she reached the workplace, she discovered that her new boss is the stranger she slept with the previous night. Luckily for her, her one night stand turned boss didn't recognize her face. But, what happened when she got pregnant for her boss? Isn't that a disaster for her?
"Miss Brown, I am the butler here at your service," the butler replied. "My master wants to buy the baby in your belly." "What?!" Does that mean the abortion didn't take place? Did they kidnap her from the operating table just to buy the baby? But why her? "You..." Alice was about to ask a question, but the man in front of her calmly continued, as if he had expected her question, "You're pregnant with his child, and he needs a child. That's all I can tell you." Alice was forced to sign a surrogacy contract and eight months later gave birth to two healthy babies. Fortunately, the man was unaware of her daughter's existence. It wasn't until five years later that fate brought them together again...
"Sign the divorce papers and get out!" Leanna got married to pay a debt, but she was betrayed by her husband and shunned by her in-laws. Seeing that her efforts were in vain, she agreed to divorce and claimed her half of the properties. With her purse plump from the settlement, Leanna enjoyed her newfound freedom. The constant harassment from her ex's mistress never fazed her. She took back her identities as top hacker, champion racer, medical professor, and renowned jewelry designer. Then someone discovered her secret. Matthew smiled. "Will you have me as your next husband?"
She thought she was the love of his life, and he became the love of her life that fateful day she had seen him at the pack's party. Selene Grace was only a replica of Alpha Leo's real mate, and when he spotted her, Leo immediately claimed her as his Luna in order to suppress the rumors of him being mateless. Being unable to conceive turns Selene's marriage into a nightmare, and as if that wasn't enough, Alpha Leo finally reunites with his long time lover and mate, rejecting a pregnant Selene as a result. 5 years later, Selene, a now successful doctor, receives an invitation to the moon shadow pack in order to rid the pack of a deadly disease which has struck it. Will Selene return back to the pack which had caused her so much pain, and what would she do when she realizes that she is mated to the Alpha who had betrayed her in the past?
For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
Anabel found out she was pregnant and dialed her husband's number to share the good news to him. They have been married for two years without a child. Desmond's mother had been accusing her of being barren and unproductive. When the call was picked, she was flabbergasted and broken. She was hearing a loud moan of feminine voice. "Ohh! Yeah! Don't stop fucking me! Fuck me harder baby!" accompanied with sound of skins slapping against the other. She went home to confront her husband and end up receiving a divorce paper. Desmond divorced him for a lady his mother was rooting. Few months later when he found out that his ex-wife is a billionaire heiress and she is pregnant with twins, he went crazy!
Veronica is an eighteen-year-old omega who falls into an emotional breakdown when her Mate, who was soon to be the Alpha of the Sun crest pack, turns against her, hurls hurtful words at her, and rejects her on the night of the full moon festival because he and everyone in the pack, including her, thinks she is an omega. As if the pain of rejection, helplessness, and worthlessness wasn't enough, she lost her best and only friend to the cold hands of death when rogue wolves attacked their pack. Right in the presence of her mate, she was tagged as someone who always attracted problems and calamities anywhere she went and he turned a blind eye and watched as she was banished from the pack. With hatred for her life, she runs deep into the woods that were off-limits and jumps off to end her life, but in a turn of events, something else happens. What would her mate do when he finds out that Veronica is not who he thinks she is? Will she be able to forgive him? What fate lies ahead for them?
