Protective Stories

Irie is new to the city, trying to start a new life away from her past and excited for the change in scenery. She doesn't know anyone, is working at a dead end job, and she lives in a dingy apartment in a bad neighborhood. Nonetheless, she's never felt so free. The only thing she has to complain about is the customer that has recently become one of her regulars. He always looks completely out of place, in his expensive suits and disheveled appearance, against the rustic look of the corner booth. He was a mystery with a mouth, and had a bad habit of criticizing her abilities as a waitress. When Irie hits rock bottom, will she be able to pull herself out of the depths, or will the handsome stranger become her rescue? Warning: mentions of abuse and suicide. Read at your own discretion.

And when he discovers the son he never knew existed, he'll burn down every border to drag them back. The only problem? Serena would rather die than return to a mate who made her invisible.

"I told you I'd rock his shit, Bella. I don't make promises I can't keep." Bella Larson is used to being invisible. She's the quiet girl, the "easy" daughter, the sister of a soldier deployed thousands of miles away. But after one disastrous party and a pair of bruises that won't let her forget it, her silence is starting to feel like a cage. She expected to fade back into the background. She didn't expect Tucker Rhodes. Tucker is everything a girl in a small Minnesota town should stay away from: the star hockey player with a cocky smirk, a lethal slap shot, and a reputation for being as cold as the ice he plays on. But when he sees the marks on Bella's skin, the ice melts into a protective fire. Now, Bella is caught between an ex-boyfriend who won't let go, a predator who thinks he's untouchable, a trio of dangerous guys she meets on a gloomy night, and a boy with busted knuckles and sparkling blue eyes who calls her "sweetheart" and walks her to class. In the aftermath of the smoke, Bella has to decide: is she worth the trouble Tucker is willing to stir up? © [2026] BedazzledPepperSpray. All Rights Reserved.

In which a girl hollowed out by monsters finds solace in the arms of a man who has only ever known how to fight them.

This book is a collection of short stories that delve into the life of Sunshyne Curtis, the youngest of the Curtis siblings. It follows her journey as she grapples with the profound grief of losing her parents and the unique challenges of being the only girl in a household dominated by her three older brothers, Darry, Sodapop, and Ponyboy.

Aavya believes she is being protected by four elite, retired soldiers. In reality, Shivarth and his three brothers (Arya, Rajveer, and Abhishek) are the "Kings of Mumbai"-the most powerful and feared mafia brothers in the country. This creates a constant tension between their lethal, professional nature and the tender, domestic roles they play to keep Aavya safe. The heart of the story lies in the transformation of the Rajvanshi brothers. Having grown up as cold soldiers in a violent world, they find a "soul" in Aavya. Aavya acts as a maternal and sisterly figure to the younger brothers (calling Arya "Bacha"), healing their childhood traumas through simple acts like cooking aloo parathas and playing Ludo. Shivarth finds a reason to live beyond the "God of Death" persona, transitioning from a stoic protector to a possessive, deeply devoted husband.

Or will the truth turn into a storm none of them are ready to face.

She never knew what love meant until them. They never knew what it felt like to have a home until she appeared. 'What?' "You really look like an angel." "Oh he's far from it sweetheart." "For you vita mia, I will be anyone." "Go home." "We are home." He looks at me, at my soulless eyes. I have never been good at hiding my emotions. I wonder what he thinks, understanding that I feel empty and that it is not a mask.

At Crestwood Academy, the children of billionaires, world leaders, and global power players rule the halls - and the stakes are higher than grades. When Aria Stark, the mysterious daughter of a family no one's heard of, arrives in Class 1, whispers turn into obsession. She's rich, poised, and untouchable... but no one can find out who she really is. Secrets simmer, alliances shift, and beneath the luxury lies a world of control, danger, and legacy. In a school where power is currency, Aria might just be the most powerful of them all - even if no one knows it yet.

Emilia Morelli's world shatters when she's told her mother has died. Left with no family, well at least none that she knows of, she's pulled into a system that sees her as just another case. She's alone and unsure of herself. But far away, there are men who have been searching for her. Men who share her name. Men who are feared by the world. They've spent years looking for the little girl who was taken from them. Now that they've found her, they'll stop at nothing to bring her home. Emilia doesn't know them. She doesn't know the truth. And she has no idea that her life is about to change forever.

She is cursed. He is a king. The moon goddess, apparently, has a vicious sense of humor. Scarlet has one rule. Do not let anyone close enough to become collateral damage. She has kept that rule for twenty three years and she intends to keep it until the end, which, if history is anything to go by, is coming sooner rather than later. Zaphrostine has one rule too. What belongs to him stays with him. She is his mate. That is not a negotiation. That is not a conversation. That is simply the most immovable fact in a life full of immovable facts, and no amount of running, ocean-crossing, or poorly explained letters is going to change it. The problem is that she is not running from him. She is running to protect him. And the war she has been dreading her entire life is already on its way. "Do not think, Scarlet," he murmured, voice dark and soft, "that your lack of a wolf spares you from me. If anything... it makes me want to claim you more." Two souls. One curse. A bond written by the moon itself and one that might just burn the world to ash.

"I'd jump after you into the pit of fire if I had to, Ophelia. Don't question that, and don't you ever ask me not to." ________________ Lilia thought she knew loneliness. She thought she understood grief. Haunted by a painful past, she kept running-from city to city, never looking back. All she wanted was a place where no one knew her. Then Dominic Brooks walked into her life. Chaotic, intense, and impossible to ignore, he and his makeshift family threatened to shatter every wall she'd built. But what unsettles her most isn't Dominic's presence-it's the way he looks at her, like he already knows her. The way he calls her Ophelia, as if it means something. And the way, despite everything, he feels like home. _______________ "Ophelia." "Ophelia, please." Isn't it funny? How this nickname works so perfectly. The world pushed Ophelia to the edge of her sanity, throwing her into the inevitability of a tragic ending. Here I am, facing the same fate. But no writer will engrave my name in history. No painting will be named after me. I'm just another insignificant part of the big book of life. Just another iteration of Ophelia.

A sunshine girl. A serious man. Multiple chanced meetings that changed everything. Aurora Blaire wasn't looking for anything serious-especially not while on a girls' holiday. But fate had other plans, for both her and Lucian Thorne: a brutally composed CEO who didn't do random, had never been in a relationship, and was too focused on his businesses to find love. What started as chance run-ins turned into something they couldn't ignore. But how does a man built on control survive the kind of girl who blooms in chaos? ------------------------------------------------------------------ ""Her tipsy boldness kicked in hard, and walked for the armrest near him-planning to sit there casually. But the world tilted, and instead of gracefully settling next to him, she ended up tumbling right onto his lap. His hand shot to her waist, steadying her with surprising gentleness. "Careful, princess." he said, his voice low and smooth, just enough to make her blush harder. "Oops," she giggled, cheeks flaming. "I cant believe it's you Mr. Serious." "Still drunk, I see." And with that, Aurora's mind took off in full chatter mode."" ------------------------------------------------------------------ #1 TEENFICTION #1 SWEET #1 GRUMPY #1 CUTE #1 FUNNY #1 GRUMPYXSUNSHINE #1 RICHGUY
