My stone cold blue eyes bore into his. I felt nothing for him as I felt his fingers graze my tanned skin like I used to, all I felt was pure hatred for the person who I used to love, the father of my daughter. "If you touch me again I won't hesitate to break your fingers" I spat. "Is that a threat baby?" He asked whilst trailing his fingers up my bare arm. I still felt nothing. "No West, that's a promise" _____________________________ Highest Rankings #2 Action-ish: 17/9/18 #DivergentLibrary

"You got too comfortable with me, doll but I didn't show you what Ace can really do." He mumbled. He broke the eye contact we were having and leaned closer to my neck. My heart beat was racing his and each breath he took sent electricity all over my body. I bit my tongue, scared of what my brain could make me say. "And I don't think you want to know," he whispered so close to my ear sending shivers down my spine. I took a deep breath, trying to collect my thoughts. He moved back to stare into my eyes, wanting to see his effect on me but I didn't give it to him. I smirked, pushed my chin down and looked up at him. "You're all talk, Ace," I whispered, not even blinking. I saw the gulp that rose in his throat, growing my smirk.

Marked By You by yoitzher

NOT EDITED PREPARE FOR SPELLING AND GRAMMAR MISTAKES; TRIGGER WARNING: I suck at putting them in the book so if you need one for any reason this is it. Be careful love:) ~~~~~~ Once you become addicted to something it never goes away. And that's what we are addicted. When addicted you'll do anything to get your next fix and for us that involved fighting, murder, and risking our lives just to see the other breathing. and even when your "sober" you'll always be addicted, that will always be your one true craving. That's exactly what happened too. We would set fire to the world around us and never let a flame touch the other because if we did... ... we'd destroy ourselves in the process. Simply I was marked by him And he was marked by me. ~~~~~ THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GIVING MY BOOK A CHANCE. PLEASE VOTE AND COMMENT. I HOPE YOU ENJOY BABE:

The Mafia's Captive✔️ by _paigefrancis

I was normal before this. Before him. Normal job, normal flat, the bliss normality of the ignorance of all the real monsters. I used to think that one time murderers were what went bump in the night. But compared to Xavier Falicci? Child's play. And I was happy in my ignorance. So so happy. Then he stole me from my life. Made me watch people be murdered. Made me murder people. But he made me feel things, so many different things. Through all of the pain, through all of the pleasure, through every emotion that he's made run through my veins, I try to think of a worse way to live. Because being his captive has changed me. Changed everything about me. As soon as I was kidnapped, the old Brooklyn died. The old me, the one who knew the difference between good and evil, right and wrong, justice and redemption. But, you know, through it all, all of the madness since that fateful night, I've realised something. Life isn't like that. Life isn't serving justice and slamming the prison cell door then riding off into the mafia free sunset. It's harder than that. Rougher. And Xavier has shown me everything that I wanted. Who knows, maybe being the mafia boss' kidnapped detective fuck buddy wasn't that bad after all... EXTREME SEXUAL CONTENT EXTREME STRONG LANGUAGE MATURE SCENES OF VIOLENCE I think it's a brilliant book, but I'm biased! Give it a read- what have you got to lose?... TRAILER: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vh8rIs7_pxE COMPLETED AS OF 22/09/18- unedited so a few grammatical errors but nothing major!
