Two book series. Book one <Long Story Short>, Book two <Nothing Last Forever> ------------------------------------------------------Book One ‘Long Story Short’ is the prequel to ‘Nothing Lasts Forever’. These are the only books in this mini book series. (if you would even call it that) Genevieve James is a seventeen year old girl pretending to be a twenty year old guard for the Royal Family of Aurora. She has been fed up with the traditional mindset of Aurora for awhile now. With this new mindset she decided to tryout to be a bodyguard for the Royal Family, undercover of course. She ended up being so good at the tryouts that she was promoted to be Princess Elaine's personal bodyguard in less than a month, thus beginning her rigorous training and secret keeping abilities. Princess Elaine Beckham is Aurora's upcoming Queen with her coronation being in a mere two weeks. With her mother constantly on her tail about ruthlessly rejecting Princes left and right she decides to take things into her own hands, approving of an arranged marriage between her daughter and a well known Prince. Prince Bane is what you would call 'a wolf in sheep's clothing'. He craves power, yet due to his family's tree he will never be allowed to take the throne. This persuade Bane into agreeing on Queen Beckham's arranged marriage. When Elaine finds out that the two of them plotted this behind her back she is very happy to say the least. Does Elaine go along with the arranged marriage out of fear of disappointing those around her or does she throw the traditional rules out the window and marry her childhood crush?-----------------------------------Book Two<Nothing Last Forever>Delaney Carson is currently one of the most famous singers globally to date. She first rose to prominence when she was only ten years old singing covers on YouTube. At the peak of her YouTube rise she was discovered by a talent scout who recommended that she sign with them and branch out to other ventures, acting being one of them. Hunter 'McKenna' King is currently one of the most famous actresses in America to date. She first began acting when she was only seven years old as a solution to helping her Mother meet bill deadlines. Albeit Hunter acting at seven years old, she did not officially hit her rise until she was ten years old. Delaney and Hunter had no clue of each other's existence until the both of them ran into each other on the set of a powdered milk commercial. The two of them were immediate friends, I would go as far as to say they were the closest on set. All of this friendship came crumbling down the second Delaney accidentally spit her strawberry milk out on Hunter during their last taping. In response to this Hunter poured her chocolate milk over Delaney's head, solidifying her hatred for the girl.

Nothing Lasts Forever Series

I make my way over towards Genevieve, who is now sitting on her bed.

/"Can you turn off the lamp before you lay down?/" She asks

/"Sure/" I say, making my way over towards the lamp

I do as she says, twisting the knob under the lampshade until her bedroom is painted black by the night sky, the subtle moonlight being our own source of light.

Genny holds the blanket open for me, allowing me to effortlessly slip under the warm fabric.

I adjust myself under the blanket before turning on my side and resting my head against cold pillow.

The corners of my lips turn upwards at the sight of her coffee brown eyes.

Our faces are rather close considering the limited space on this bed.

The two of us just stay like this for a moment, relishing in the calming repetition of the chirping crickets outside.

Our silent breaths gently fanning against each other's cheeks.
