I felt a sudden gush of wind, I looked up to the road but there wasn't any car in sight, it was not possible that a car would pass so fast that I couldn't even see the rear lights anymore. I decided that it was all in my head, I was probably so scarred that I began to imagine things. With the thought in mind I decided to go inside the school to wait for dad, there was no one in school anymore or if there were any none of them were in sight. I went into the field and sat on one of the bleachers still waiting for dad, I know I wasn't right to forget to pick George on his first day of school but leaving me stranded hours after my last class was definitely wicked there wasn't any cars around the area anymore so i couldn't even get home on my own. I felt a gush of wind which snapped me out of my thoughts, I turned left to see Chris sitting next to me, I was more scared than shocked, like how in the world did he get there without making a sound and worse he looked so pale like he could literally be mistaken for a statue. "mate" he whispered under his breath, what was that even supposed to mean. "Why are you here, When did you get here, answer me!!" I almost yelled asking him a bunch of questions but not the one that bordered me most, 'why did he look like he cared?' He suddenly looked forward into the distance then sighed. " Your dad is here, I'll answer all your questions next time." he said. I looked forward as well but there was no way to tell that my dad was here. " what do you mean by my dad is here, there's no one there." I stated while turning towards him but he wasn't there any longer. At this point, a thousand and one thoughts were going through my head, I was worried that I just hallucinated, but most of all I was scared that all that just happened might have been real. Out of curiosity I picked my books and went back to the gate to my surprise I met dad scowling. Dad kept scolding me for not waiting outside the gate for him but I ignored him and went into the back sit the only question in my mind, 'how did Chris know dad was here?

Chapter 1Moving day

Bella's POV

"Bella hurry up already, the moving company will be here soon." Mom yelled.

Dad got transferred to New Orleans and so we had to move which was definitely not the most exciting thing for me right now. I had just finished high school and already had plans of going to the same university as my best friend Jenny only for dad to drop the news on us like it was already decided and made final, like how could he, don't I have a say in my own live. Ugh

I took the last box of my stuff out to the sitting room where George was playing video games on his laptop instead of helping out.

"You could at least act busy," I scoffed as I dropped the box.

George, my annoying little brother, was as usual the only person that was extremely satisfied about us moving, he kept on saying stuff like, 'New Orleans is the best' he also said that New Orleans was the birth place of vampires. We all know vampires are myths, their even more fictitious than most myths I've heard of. But as usual George watches a movie and suddenly whatever is in the movie becomes real, 'according to The Originals New Orleans was created by vampires' he kept yapping. I don't even know why he was allowed to watch a vampire series.

"Bella, Jenny is here." Mom called out from the front door.

"I'll be there in a sec." I replied as I went to the door.

"Bella!" she shrieked and pulled me into a bear hug.

"Hi Jen," I smiled.

Jenny had been my best friend since middle school, before I met her I hated everyone and anyone that walked the school hallway, it wasn't that I thought I was better than them, I just felt that they were all weird till I met Jenny though. Since we became friends in middle school, we were impossible to separate, eventually our parents joined in on our friendship.

"I'm really going to miss you Bella." Jenny said.

"I'll miss you more."

"Promise to call me everyday?"

"I promise."

"Do you know which university you'd be going to?" Jenny asked.

"Nah not yet, dad's company is sponsoring half the payment so it's probably a school that's under them or something." I shrugged.

Typical me to not be interested enough to know the name of the school I'd be starting in a week. It was not that I wasn't interested in going to college or anything like that, it's just, I had already planned how I'd go to a university here in Oklahoma with Jenny. Since dad's work decided to mess with my plans I decided to let them take the wheels and do whatever they want, whatever school I get into then so be it.

"You do know it is your future and not your dad's so it will be nice if you look into it more okay," Jenny said as if reading my thoughts.

"yeah whatever, I'll try." I replied without any atom of sincerity.

Jenny sighed and face palmed herself, "I really don't know how your going to make new friends over there with that attitude of yours."

"you don't need to worry I am not planning on going there to socialize." I shrugged.

"Come on no man or in your case woman is an island." She said.

"Hey girls, we need to get moving soon so I'd appreciate it if you girls help out in putting the rest of these stuff in the trunk." Mom called from the sitting room.

Dad had already hired a moving company to take most of our stuff over so we didn't really have much to carry, but the journey to New Orleans by road was about ten hours journey and mom didn't want us getting there by midnight or something like that.

After putting the rest of the stuff into the trunk, I helped mom strap the baby then bid Jenny farewell and got into the car.

Road trips were not really my thing, I couldn't even bare a three hour school trip without getting irritated even with Jenny beside me how much worse a ten hour journey with an annoying George and a constantly crying Debbie, pure torture. The trip was nothing short of annoying, first George kept poking me to give him snacks when the snacks was right in front of him, like the snack bag was beside him on the seat while Debbie was before the snack bag from my side so why in the world was he pestering me. Like that wasn't enough, dad began to sing some elementary school rhymes after we went past an ice cream truck, why would he do that, I was seventeen, George was 12, the only one amongst us that could have needed the rhymes was asleep, in frigging dream land, but nooo, dad had to sing his rhymes and wake little Debbie.

Now do you know what could possibly have been worse than a crying baby, I'll tell you, a crying baby who won't go back to sleep. Debbie cried for what felt like an hour before she finally accepted her baby formula, but of course not, the ride couldn't have just become peaceful after that, it was like the gods of road trips (not that I believe in gods) were out to hunt me today for daring to go on a ten hour trip. Debbie began to cry again after five minutes of finishing her formula. I tried everything to stop her from crying till I realized that she had filled her diapers. I handed her over to mom to change her, I guess after that the gods decided to have mercy on me and give me something to laugh about cause not too long after mom had changed Debbie, she threw up on mom which was so funny. Dad had to stop the car so mom could clean up.

Eventually, after what felt like a year we finally got to New Orleans, from the scenery I saw on the way to the house, New Orleans didn't look so bad, it wasn't as good as Oklahoma but it wasn't bad either.

The second we pulled up in the driveway of our new home I jumped out of the car like I was being chased. 'Gosh I'm never taking a ride that long ever again.

Hades' Cursed Luna

In a world where Lycans and werewolves are sworn enemies, Eve Valmont is a werewolf cursed by a prophecy and framed. Betrayed by her own pack and imprisoned for years, her fate takes a darker twist when she is offered to the Lycan King, Hades Stavros—a ruler feared for his ruthless conquests and deadly prowess. Bound by an ancient prophecy and haunted by the ghosts of her past, Eve is now at the mercy of the one being she should hate and fear the most—The Hand of Death himself. Hades, a king carved from blood and his own soul's decay, determined to avenge his family's slaughter and rid his people of the werewolves. He believes Eve is the key to his victory. To him, she is nothing but weapon foretold by prophecy, a tool he will wield to destroy the opposing forces threatening his pack. Yet, he finds himself craving this powerful yet broken woman. Leaving him questioning if she is truly his weapon or the one destined to unravel his carefully laid plans. *** He stalked toward me, a predator closing in on its prey, his eyes dark and unreadable. "So, you laugh?" His voice was low, dangerously soft, making the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I swallowed hard, suddenly aware of how difficult it had become to breathe. "Hades, I—" "But you only laugh at other men's jokes," he interrupted, his gaze piercing, devoid of any humor. "Not your husband's." The accusation in his tone was sharp, slicing through the air between us. A nervous chuckle escaped me. "You can't be serious... He’s your beta, for Goddess’ sake." In an instant, he closed the distance between us, so fast it left me breathless. His hands gripped my waist, pulling me flush against his body, the heat of him making my skin tingle. I gasped, but before I could say a word, his lips crashed onto mine, claiming my mouth with a force that sent shockwaves through me. The kiss was punishing, hungry—I couldn't breathe, couldn't think. When he finally pulled back, I was trembling, my chest heaving as I struggled to regain my breath. His eyes, dark and stormy, searched mine with a possessive intensity. "You can’t laugh at my jokes..." he whispered, his voice a dangerous rasp as his fingers trailed lower, sending a shiver down my spine, "but you’ll come with my fingers." I shivered, heat pooling low in my belly at his words, his touch. The world around us blurred, fading into nothing as his hand slipped lower, drawing a ragged gasp from my lips. The look in his eyes told me he knew exactly what he was doing to me, and there was no denying the primal connection between us in that moment. "I don’t need your laughter," he murmured against my skin, his breath hot on my neck. "I’ll have every other part of you instead." **** Dark fantasy romance Morally Grey ML Angst Suspense ENEMIES to lovers Smut (like sprinkles on your ice cream)

The Fate Of The World Is In My Hands, But All I Want To Do Is Eat!

'Kill monsters, eat meat' 'I mean, Kill monsters, save lives. Got it.' 'Tut, I could've sworn that the first one sounded better.' She wasn't a girl looking for freedom or self-righteous liberation by a hero, or whatever shit a girl who suffered for almost all her life would crave. -the shit of a life she was living was horrible, but it was bearable, and so she got used to it. Rather, instead of freedom, what this little missy wanted was money. Lots and lots of them so she never has to worry about the next day. Money - bountiful enough that when she has to spend, she doesn't need to look back or calculate her assets to see how much she has left. Money - bountiful enough to get all the fried chicken she could ever dream of. Yeah, you heard it, fried chicken. For those who did not have money to spare leisurely, getting fried chicken was like a pipe dream to them and she had been one of those unfortunate souls. A comfortable roof above her head and no worries as to when she would get ordered around to steal. No worries about when she would get her next meal-- That was her liberation. And she got it. Just that, she got it most absurdly. Awakened! Those were the people ruling the world, alongside beastly and deadly monsters who threatened the safety of average human beings. And those awakened call the shots. Alice never dreamed she would one day be awakened, and compared to others with their game-like system displaying their attributes and strength; she had a full-grown man whom only she could hear, watching her back at every turn and telling her what to do. He was kinda a pain in the ass but she couldn't complain. It was this gift he had bestowed on her that made her the most powerful Awakened there was with stats that even S-class awakeneds couldn't compare to. She was the boss, now. Mwa-hahahahaha. But life didn't go as easy and leisurely as she planned. With great power comes great responsibility, right? Well, in her case with great power comes great hunger. She couldn't go a moment without getting hungry and her stomach had become a bottomless pit. And to get food, she needed money, and to get money, she had to hunt monsters. The monsters plagued humanity, causing catastrophes and taking lives mercilessly. Those monsters, as scary as they may be, were her target and she had to face them head-on. The bigger the monsters the more money she would gain. Yeah, that was the plan, but... This guy acting as her system seemed to have other plans, putting her at the forefront of 'justice' and having her clean the mess he somewhat created. 'Ugh, I can already sense a shadow of foreboding. Someone, please tell me I'm not acting the main character role. I just want to eat, okay?'

Hellbound Heart

[WARNING: MATURE CONTENT] - Izabelle had underestimated the fire she thought she was going to play with tonight. But how could she ever have foreseen that the man she had happened to come across with does not play with just a small fire, but a whole inferno? ___ Excerpt: "You going through this marriage with me might as well be like you digging your own grave. Because the moment you start to want more from me, I will divorce you. And the moment you break your promise and try to fight me… I will ruin you and break you apart completely. Mercilessly. You will regret ever meeting this devil tonight." His threat was given in the same soft but cold voice. But Elle did not even flinch. Her gaze never faltered either. This man was ruthless, and she knew that clearly. His eyes that moment promised nightmares and darkness without any promise of respite. But no matter what he says now, it would still not change her decision. She truly had no other choice. "I understand now…" she said quietly, steeling herself. "Since you don't trust that I will keep my word, how about we do this? You prepare the divorce documents beforehand now and I'll sign it. That way, once you decide to divorce me in the future, the papers would already have been signed and there would be no way I can trouble you about it. You would just need to send it to the lawyers and have it notarized." A heavy silence reigned before his quiet disbelieving laugh broke the silence. "I'm at a loss for words, Princess Izabelle." He looked wickedly amused. But then he started nodding in approval. "Fine, princess. I will marry you." ___ Instagram account: kazzenlx.x facebook page: author_kazzenlx Discord server: https://discord.gg/UGTA3A4 Cover is mine so don't use it.
