She stood nervously opposite this grey eyes delinquent. No matter how hard she tried to avoid him, he’s always coming back to her.
Her breath hitch the more he leans closer to her. He smells so good, so she thought. Her back lean against his desk as her eyes lock with his. He was something words can’t describe.
“Why are you scared of me, Ariel ?”
“I’m not..” she stuttered. She seems to lose her breath at just his sight.
“What if I kiss you right now ?” He asked and that seems to make her heartbeat skip.
They were inch apart and all she could feel is his hot breath against her neck.
“I’m not feeling very well…” he told her trailing his fingers on the naive brunette.
“Why are you telling me this ?”
“I want you to be my nurse. Kiss me till I feel better. Or maybe…” He whispered leaning closer to her so she could feel him.
“Babysit me tonight..”

She is the good girl.
She is no different from a boring introvert.
She likes to read and stay indoors.
One dream she’d always loved was going to nun school.
Being a sister and serving in a convent.
She was about taking her vows in church, but all her dreams went down the drain when her male best friend stole everything away from her. Tearing away her holy garment as he stole her innocence. She hated herself, she hated her life and she despised her family. They despised her more for making them lose their positions in the church. And that seems to break her down. She hated her world and maybe men.
Just when she was picking up her broken life, Gray Carter walks into her life. But what happens when his world is filled with mysteries and secrets?

Falling for a Mafia

We stay behind and watch her with the other kids.


” Kids are so hard sometimes. Can’t imagine having one right now.” He mutters and sigh.


” It’s gonna be cute you know. Changing diapers.” I nudge him and chuckle.


” That sh*t ain’t cute. It’s just stressful.”


I roll my eyes and cross my arms. Literally , he’s telling me he doesn’t want kids. What am I expecting ? For heaven’s sake , he’s Gray Carter. I don’t even want one anytime soon.


” Hey that’s enough…” We heard chattering from Kennedy’s game booth.


I throw my ice cream cup in a trashcan as we hurry to the noise. Oh my God.


” Kennedy..” Gray groans and try to stop her. She just got into a fight with an older girl , probably ten years old. Kid’s nose is already bleeding.


” Come on.” I take Kennedy’s hand and lead her away from the fight. Gray apologise to the kid’s parent and he had to give her some money. Buddy’s pissed and really tired.


We walk back to his car as we stare at Kennedy. She doesn’t even look bothered.
