She was embarrassed that she was caught and mortified by the voice of the man she recognized as ‘him’. What was he doing here? She started to turn around, but he grasped her shoulder so she couldn't move. "No, let's watch." His breath was at her ear, fire lapping at her nerves, singeing and burning her insides, making a pleasant feeling erupt in her stomach. His arm snaked around her shoulder and grabbed her hand while his other hand slid down to her sides until it rested on her hip. He was not pressing himself into her, but she felt completely engulfed by him. She knew she should scream, or stomp on his foot, but all she could do was listen to his breathing escalate as his thumb rubbed her shoulder, putting her in a stupor. She thought she heard him sniff her hair and his lips lightly grazed her ears as he whispered. "Don't miss the show because of me, little girl." Her eyes flickered back to the couple in the car, and she let out a whimper as she saw the man pull at the woman's hair, baring her beck to him, inviting his mouth to lick and suck. She felt ‘him’ close the gap between them, his hard body pressed up against hers, his arms tightly holding her. There was no mistaking what she felt on her lower back and she closed her eyes in delight. - - - - - Read my other works: 1. Cornered by the CEO - Complete 2. Autopsy of a Mind - Complete 3.

His eyes were throwing flames. It was crimson now. Smoke was coming out of his ears. He scrunched his nose, gritted his teeth, and chided, “what do you think about yourself?” His fangs started showing. She squinted her eyes and smirked, “The girl who beat you.” “Why did you come back? You ran away, then why did you come back?” he yelled. “To rub it in your face,” she replied. Her every word was like a dagger to his heart. “I won. I won and you lost, at last.” “I was so happy you were not here,” he chided. “Maybe that’s why I am here because I would hate to see you happy. I want you to cry and be sad all your life,” she snapped. “Cry, in front of you? You are the one who will cry. You declared war, now get ready to rumble,” he barked. ***** Can one fall in love with a Vampire twice?

A young man with a bright future ahead of him gets run over by a talking train, and is sent into a mystical, fantasy world filled to the centimeter with anything a man can think of. Uniquely interesting individuals to meet, grand locations to explore, and strange societies, with underlying mysteries awaiting to be explored. However... a good protagonist is always aided by an equally noteworthy, and possibly bizarre, cast of acquaintances. *** Tags: [Realism], [Isekai], [Cynical], [Dark], and [Slow-paced] (Or so I've been told). Disclaimers: 1. In spite of what Randall (the MC) says at the start, it is NOT a harem. 2. I will also shift POVs (and provide a clarification) whenever I consider it's worth it. However, the spotlight will be on the MC most of the time. 3. The MC starts off overpowered, but that will change after Chapter 40. I don't really like OP MCs too much. 4. Please read the first 3 chapters to decide whether it's worth reading. Finally, this is also my first time publishing a novel, so I hope it's not too bad. (PS: Cover is AI made.) PSS: Currently in hiatus (didn't know how to put it)

Alora Hemming is memorable; even if she's walking past you on a street, you'd remember her. Not because she is gorgeous or because she has the best outfits, but because of her very concerning mindset and actions. Exactly the reason why she had been plaguing Griffin Steele's mind ever since he was four. Their first interaction wasn't a simple walk on the street, no, their first meeting was a battle to establish dominance. A battle of petty rights. The spine-chilling Battle of Silverado Kindergarten, fought amongst thirteen toddlers, left clear winners and losers. Alora Hemming was reduced to the confines of her 1.22 acre mansion with a private tutor, homeschooling and her frankensteined dolls as companions. Finn's bag and baggage was sent packing to Worthfinder Academy wherein the lap of peace and education Finn spent happy three years before being plagued by Alora Hemming's existence again. And meeting a whole decade later, surely made no difference. From day one, she had been bruising his ego, stepping inside his comfort zone and shaking the very ground of his morals. Hence why, Finn Steele must make sure he would never lose to Alora Hemming. Never. Ever. Even if she was going to be the mother of his children. And Alora Hemming would make sure that Finn Steele, must, by all means, always lose to her. For. Ever. Even when she started a family with him. It was a matter of Ego. . . yeah,, give it a try. i think you'll like it pretty! cover designed by me! Leave reviews and i shall love thee!
