"Love never ends."

Tessa is a determined single mother, driven to shield her daughter, Mallory, from the shadows of her past. Fleeing a dark history and the painful scars left by her foster parents, she's built a life on the run, always looking over her shoulder. But when her path crosses with a stranger and his warm, welcoming family, Tessa faces an impossible choice: protect her heart or finally let someone in. To secure a future for Mallory, Tessa may have to learn that not every stranger is a threat-and that love, no matter how buried, has a way of resurfacing.All Rights Reserved

Before It Ends • Hessa • Emery Scott by -M-I-N-E-

This is a Hardin x Tessa fan fiction, although focuses mostly on their daughter Emery Scott. Finished writing: March 25, 2021. Posting schedule: Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. It is written in first person, present tense, and has many point of views such as, Hardin, Tessa, Emery, and a few others. Warnings! This has mentions of abuse, sexual abuse, and sexual behavior. Small preview: "No! You're being crazy, Hardin!" I chuckle lightly at the fact they don't know we can hear them. Auden probably can't because he goes to bed at fucking 7:30! Who does that? My parents have a rule to not yell in front of the kids, little do they know that these walls are thin and I can hear them in their room. Surprisingly, I have only heard angry shouts coming from their room, no moans or banging. I'm surprised they have kept their fucking volume down though. I scoff at my disgusting thoughts, and shake them away. They don't fight often though. But recently they have. About me, of course. Mom feels like dad defends her too much during our fights or some shit. I don't know. She probably should be happy he's defending her, because if he wasn't here I wouldn't be living in this house. I would've ran away a long time ago. She's just so controlling and naive. It annoys the shit out of me. Thank god she doesn't know about my late night drinking and partying, because that would only make her cry. I really hope dad doesn't tell her. I can't do one thing without the fear of her judging me, or wanting to change me. Dad is different, because he actually is like me. He understands me. If I am really being honest, I'm afraid of mom knowing the real me, for fear she'll hate me just as much as I do myself. • • If you like Twenty One Pilots check out my other books, Completed books: Tyler Joseph Imagines We're Human. • Jyler • We'll Pee When We Get To Europe (•Twenty One Pilots•FanFiction•) Alive | ør | Asleep.

Let me love you by M_scorpioxx

My lips part slightly, as I watch her move her body to the rhythm. She runs her hands through her hair as she moves her body sensually slow with her eyes closed. Throwing her head back she brings her hands lower, gliding them across her neck and then chest. Once she opens her eyes and makes eye contact with me...fuck! -------------------------- Chloe is a lovely 19-year-old photography student that has taken an interest in the boy next door. It's a risk wanting to cross the line between friends to lovers, are you willing to take it or not? Can you handle the rejection if that's the outcome? What if you're the one doing it? Are you strong enough to break someone's heart? Ian is a lonely 19-year-old university student that has no interest in meeting new people. His tough upbringing makes it difficult for him to maintain friendships and the concept of love is difficult for him to grasps. After all, how can someone understand something they never felt before? Are you willing to stay friends with him even after he lets you in? If he shows you his world, would you show him yours? #193 in romance {3/2/2022}

Her plan is simple: focus on her studies, secure a coveted place at the Royal University, and repay her family's debts. When she reluctantly attends a party and a mysterious bond awakens with Ashton-her infuriatingly arrogant classmate-her carefully laid plans are thrown into chaos. For reasons Elizabeth can't fathom, Ashton despises her. But Ashton's no ordinary student. He's a prince, secretly living among commoners to avoid the enemies plotting to destroy his family. As the king reveals there's more to Elizabeth's past than she knows, they realize the bond might not be the only thing connecting them. Bound by forces neither of them understands, and thrust into the dangerous world of court politics, secrets, and creatures thought only to exist in legends, Ashton and Elizabeth race against time to uncover the bond's origins. Rumors of war echo throughout the kingdom, and the force drawing them closer is too intoxicating to resist, yet too dangerous to embrace. Will this connection be their salvation or the undoing of everything they're fighting to protect?
