I hope you enjoy it! just do note, I am in the middle of rewrite both that sequel and the third one, so they won't be as good as the first one. Apologies for any inconveniences caused there.

Hi there!! I have actually decided to pause this book for a bit while I try to replan the whole story. I feel like the storyline is dragged out quite a bit and it is all my fault. It was my intention to drag out the storyline, but looking back, I didn't realise just how much I dragged it out. Though, I do like the slow-burn of the story, I feel like I may have over-done it ahaha. But if you like the progression of the story, please do say so, I'd be more than happy to continue writing it as it is! :D But yeah, I am just worried that the book may become a bit boring to read due to the number of chapters, which is something that I don't want to have anyone go through, because it honestly does feel horrible lol. But, I must thank you for your patience - this actually goes to all my readers, thank you all very much! And the moment everything is ready, I'll be more than happy to continue publishing new chapters :D. Thank you so much for commenting!!! :D <3

Hi there, dear reader! I am actually working at the moment on a rewrite for this story. I will try my best to include the necessary story line from this current version of the book. I'm mainly doing a rewrite because, reading over the story, the structure seemed kinda off to me and there are some unanswered questions that I really want to supply an answer to. I hope that the rewrite will do just that. Now, for the time of the release of the rewrite, I sadly couldn't give you a proper estimate as I am currently doing my final year in highschool, so I'm very busy with school. But I can reassure you that it will definitely come! Thank you so much for reading my book, and I'm so sorry for this unsatisfying answer, as I know myself that I'm not a big fan of cliffhangers XD. Overall, I hope you enjoyed the story! Thank you so much for reading!! :D

Hi there, dear reader, Thank you so much for reaching out to me, sadly, I don't plan on publishing the book, as in, putting it up on Amazon or something for money yet. But I am so happy that you came across my book and offered me this incredible offer. Maybe in the near future, but for now, I want to focus on publishing good content for my readers to enjoy 😊. Once again, thank you so much for this offer 😊. Kind Regards, Strale.

    Not All Roses Bloom in Spring

    Urban WEAKTOSTRONG TRAGEDY BEAUTY SCARY DRAMATIC DETAILED SERIOUS

    PREVIOUSLY NAMED 'THE BATTLE OF VEURSIR.'. Warning - This book does deal with the themes of war and loss. Viewer discretion is advised. She went from working in her family's bar to helping those out on the battlefield. Young Claire Emerson received a letter that changed her life forever. She received an invitation from the military only weeks after a war had broken out. Her country needed her and she knew that, yet she accepted the call for a reason totally personal to her. Join Claire on a journey of pain, heartbreak, sadness and maybe, just maybe, love, as she found herself, combating the war alongside the one man who stood up for her. *extract from the book* From her hands, she gazed up at her brother. "Do you really have to go back?" she asked him. The lump that formed in her throat was the only culprit, the cause of her voice, that held her words, to be so soft. From looking in the distance, her words caused him to lower his gaze and look down into the dirt. Not too long passed when he glanced at Meghan, who had her eyes on them both, she too was looking for the answer to Claire's question. Finally, Garrett looked at his sister, a small smile of reassurance appeared on his lips. "But I will be back..." A pause. "I will be back before you know it!". Claire tried to react to his words, she attempted to smile but failed in doing so. She wasn't in the mood to give him a fake smile, to fake her contentment. Garrett took in another breath. "I-I have to go. I have to go, Claire. They need me there. But I think it'll be everything like it was thus far, it'll be nothing serious. Remember when dad, too, was a soldier? He spent less than a year in the army and then came back.". "Y-yeah, but this is different, Garrett...". A very brief pause followed Claire's words. "Didn't you hear about another war brewing up? It was all in the papers, Garrett.". Gently, Garrett shook his head in disapproval. "They are just rumours, Claire. You cannot believe something like that. What more, you cannot trust those kinds of people. The kind who earn money from scaring others.". Claire was about to say something, she was about to retort, but she choked up on her own words. In the end, she said nothing. "You don't have to worry about me. I'll be back, Claire.". A pause. "Just like father... I'll be back before you know it.".

    Until July

    Urban CAMPUS SWEETLOVE LOVEATFIRSTSIGHT FRIENDSTOLOVERS

    Lengkap

    It all began one late Winter but ended only months later when Summer came around. When Briella's boyfriend left for University, he left her with words that rang in her head. But it was weeks later that his words lost their true meaning. All it took was one phone call for it all to break into pieces... He broke up with her. Losing her faith in love, Briella doesn't want to fall head over heels again. She managed to live by her words for a few weeks. But one day, whilst in a hurry to class, Briella crashed into someone in the hallway... It was a guy. He was tall, handsome, blonde... Though the thought of this may come across as cliché, it is inevitable to think that something may happen between the two. But they only have until July to find out... *EXTRACT FROM THE BOOK* It was Valentines Day, both Briella and Nadia went out to the nearby dance that was held every year for Valentines Day. "Can you remind me of the reason for why exactly we are here, Nadia? Because, from what I can remember, we weren't asked out for by anyone!". "Sure, we have still come here, regardless of whether or not we were asked out or not. Besides, who knows? We might find someone tonight! I am sure that there are many lonely souls, just like us, out and about. Blending in with the crowd," Nadia replied. Little to Briella's knowledge, Nadia was right. "May I ask, what's such a beautiful lady like yourself doing all alone on Valentines Day?" A deep voice caught Briella's attention. Turning around, she saw a tall, handsome guy facing her. A small smile stretched across his lips. "I don't really have a Valentine this year... In fact, I don't even know why I agreed to come here, but hey, here I am..." Briella replied. She was just about to thank him for his compliment when suddenly his voice was heard once again. "Wait, like no Valentine... at all?". Briella shook her head as a reply. "Nope.". "Well..." he began. "Perhaps... I can change that. What do you say?". "What are you implying by that?". "Well...". He bowed down right before her. "Would you like to dance with me?... I'd like to be your Valentine this year.". That Valentines night was when Briella met her boyfriend, Dylan, and instantly fell in love with him.

Nadia begins. When Briella raises her eyes up to her, she sees a smug smile on Nadia's lips. "I never got to ask... Who was that 5th year you always had your eye on last year?". Immediately, Briella's face becomes red as she knows exactly who Nadia is talking about. "Ryan... was that his name??" Nadia questions. 'Ryan...' Briella thinks to herself. 'His name... it brings back all those memories... The first time I saw him was when I was in 2nd year. He was with a group of fellas when his eyes landed on mine and me on his. It was that one look that made me want him. Although he didn't grow on me at first, by the time I got to my 4th year, I had an intense crush on him...'.

    The Apocalyptic Survival

    Sci-fi

    (*BRIEF WARNING* THERE IS DESCRIPTION OF GORES AND INJURIES IN THIS BOOK, VIEWERS BE ADVISED) What has happened to the town of Armull?... How did the zombie apocalypse spread so fast?... How did this virus come to be?... Is it too late?... Can it be stopped?... It all began with the treatment... Extract from the book: "I remember telling myself that it was all going to be okay, that this was going to be like every other mission, except that in Armull, there was a zombie outbreak, that happened 5 years ago. I work 'National Civil Armed Forces' or 'NCAF' for short, this is also that is one of the reasons why I got contacted to go to Ireland, and of course I agreed, they said that people needed help, and it is my job to help people that need it, but anyway, I got on my flight a few days later to Dublin, not knowing that I was about to get myself into literally a living nightmare. It is the only thing that I can compare it to" Frank said as he sat back with his legs wide apart and his hands intertwined, covering his crotch. He bits his lip and looks around the room. "Can you tell us more Frank? Are you hiding something?" said an unknown voice that was directly opposite to Frank. "Even if I was hiding something, even if I didn't want to tell you what that was, you would still know what it is that I am hiding, you have access to all of the fucking documents, you know what happened, don't you?" Frank answered as he grew angrier. "We just want to hear your side of the story, Frank, we believe that every story has two or more sides, but we will not let you go until you tell us EXACTLY what happened in Armull, so you can choose to begin now and finish earlier, or begin later and finish later, we are in absolutely no rush" said the voice, almost provoking Frank. Frank clenched his teeth and gripped his fists, as he sat up, placing his both fists on the table. He closed his eyes as he tilted his head towards the ceiling lights, taking in one deep breath before opening his mouth and beginning to speak. "it's all began...".

    *UNDER REVISION* This is a sequel of both my books, 'That One Flight' and ' Love In Belgrade', I'd recommend you reading them first (if you haven't) to make the storyline more clear. *This book has some explicit content* BOOK THREE from the 'O'Neill Series'. *EXTRACT FROM THE STORY* I look through my phone again and I see that Ana has texted me. I smile as I read through her messages. Ana: Hey, are you asleep, if so, I am sorry if I woke you up. I just wanted to say that I love you. Ana: And I miss you so much. Too much. Then I see she sent me another message, a short while after her last one. Ana: James, are you okay? Please text me whenever you can. I love you. I can feel my heart is beating faster. James: Hey baby, I am fine. But I'll be better if you were here beside me in my bed. ;) James: How is my birthday girl? James: Ana, I miss you so fucking much too baby. Just the thought of you makes me go so hard. I can't wait until I see you again, kiss you again, hug you again, lick you again, eat you again... fuck you again. Fucking hell, I need to see her, but in person. Ana: You know that me getting wet, plus being out in public does not go together all that well ;) She is wet? Fuck me... James: I am going to make you rain the next time I see you, that is my promise to you ;) Ana: That is not helping my leaking problem, you know that? James: I know... I am just saying what I will do to you the next time I see you. Ana: James! You are going to make me squirt in public... James: Oh... I can't let that happen... Ana: Thank you god... James: You can only squirt for me, only on me.

    *Read at your own risk* (I have warned you!) *Steamy scenes ahead!!* This story has some heavy scenes, I have warned you in advance. If you want to read the story but skip the heavy parts, I will tell you when the heavy parts will happen prior to the chapter because... I got you boo, I got you.. There will be some strong, mature scenes, but no worries, I am here for you all and I will warn you in advance of a steamy scene. Don't report (I mean, I am warning you now about mature content, don't be surprised! Also if you ignore this... it is kinda your fault, not mine...) as I have spent SO MUCH TIME ON THIS. And if you just want to troll since you have nothing else to do... just don't do it. I have given in so much sweat and effort into this and I don't want a group of people who are bored out of their minds to ruin it for me. If it turns out that you don't like this book then feel free to read my other books that I have written. *WARNING FOR MATURE CONTENT IN CASE IF YOU MISSED MY LAST WARNINGS* Other than that, I hope you will enjoy reading this! *This book contains explicit content* *EXTRACT FROM THE BOOK* I stared at him, cooking and whistling, something that I could not do, or should I say, didn't want to do. I decided to move away and try to find an exit but I didn't even take a step back when I heard his voice. "Princess? Is that you?" I saw him raise his head before shooting his eyes onto me. The sudden gaze caused to heart to race while it froze my body, as if I have turned into ice. I felt the fear engulf my body, eating me inside out. "You aren't scared of me... Are you?" he asked me, I sensed the envy in his voice. That mixed with his harsh tone caused a wave of goosebumps to course through my body. I wanted to begin by asking him where was I? Why was I here? Why was he here... I wanted to ask him, but I couldn't, the fear was just all too much for me. "Come on... Speak to me... Ask me..." he began. "Ask me "why am I here" and all of that crap... Entertain me with your fear." I saw him slowly gripping a knife that was on the countertop, with his eyes still on mine. The sides of his mouth slowly began tilting upwards. All the bitterness and the cold, it was all so visible in his eyes. I looked at his in horror, noticing him as he took his first small steps towards me. "Talk to me... Because this might be the last time you will ever talk, " he said this sentence in such a calm tone, it caused me once again to shiver with goosebumps. "W-what do you mean...". Never in my life have I stuttered, until then. "What I mean is..." he began before abruptly stopping, until then, he never took his eyes off me. The next thing I knew, he full-on charged towards me. I heard chairs crashing down while I turned around, and just as I was about to run, I felt him grab me by my wrist, before he yanked me, as a result, I crashed straight into his chest. My hands were on his big, broad chest right before he turned me around so that my shoulder were now against his pecks. Till then, I figured that this was probably just one of my many wicked nightmare until I felt the blade ,from that knife he picked up, rest on my neck. As if it was an instinct, I grabbed his arm that was resting on my chest with my two small hands. In the same time tried to push my head back and away from the knife but it is near impossible as there is no space for me to move any further against his hard pecks. Next, I hitched for air when I felt his breath, as it warmed my skin. "Trust me... don't you dare, for second, think that I will hesitate to hurt you, because I will if you disobey me..."

    This story is a sequel to 'That One Flight', I recommend you read that story first (if you haven't) just for the story to make more sense :) *This book has some explicit content* *UNDER REVISION* BOOK TWO from the 'O'Neill Series'. *PREVIOUSLY NAMED 'LOVE IN BELGRADE'.* *EXTRACT FROM THE STORY* "Umm, hi James, Ana here... in case if this phone number does not seem familiar to you. I just wanted to see how you are... umm... so... how are you?... I'm good if that is what you were going to ask me..." I pause before letting out a sigh. "But not as good as when I am with you..." I say, not believing how freely I just said that. "I... I miss you... very much... I can't help but wonder if you feel the same about me... if you miss me too...". Then my mind goes blank. "I... I..." I begin, searching for a topic. "I hope you have a good stay in Belgrade... I guess me wishing that I could see you again would be a bit too much of a wish..." I end my words with a giggle. I find myself, once again, walking around my living room. "Anyways, that is all that I wanted to say. I wanted to see how you are and if everything is okay. I also read that letter... you have a really beautiful way with words..." I say. "But how do you know I don't like being woken up?... Actually, I don't think anybody likes being woken up, so scrap that question..." I giggle, but then I shake my head. I am taking too long. "Sorry, this message must be very long by now, so I am going to finish now... I just... I really want to see you in person again..." I then once again pause as I look down at my legs that rub my carpet. "Anyways... that is all I have to say... see you- I mean, probably not really, but I am hoping I'll get to see you, you know...". A sigh escapes my lips. "Bye..." I say before distancing my phone from my ear and press the red button.

"You know, you are going to have to try harder if you expect me to fall for you..." I reply. "Well, haven't you already fallen for me? You have your head on my shoulder and your hand around mine. I know I ain't no doctor Cupid, but to me, that signals something.". I chuckle at his words. "Also, who said I was trying to make you fall for me?" he asks, raising his eyebrow. I sarcastically widen my eyes. "Oh, so you are not trying to make me fall for you?". "I didn't say that..." he replies. "Oh, so you are...". "Just go to sleep..." he says through his smile. I gladly accept his request and lay back down onto his shoulder.
