[The rewritten version of Two Gangs and a Golden Girl]

DO NOT ATTRACT ATTENTION UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED FOR THE CONSEQUENCES.
Such is the law in Tygerwel, a town torn apart by a long history of bad blood.

19-year-old Amber Marigold can barely face the consequences of skipping breakfast, let alone attracting the interest of criminal organisations. Moving in with her cousin after the unanswered death of her parents, all she wants is a fresh start in a new town. And yet, the girl manages to waltz her way right into the middle of a dangerous rivalry between two young cyngs, leaders of their respective crime bloodlines.

But when a bet on who could win her heart not only risks the safety of her family but raises questions about what truly happened to her parents, Amber must make a choice. Stay an ignorant pawn, keeping safe what she still has, or become a player and gamble it all for a glimmer of truth.

EXPLORE A WORLD OF CRIME YOU'VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE. WHERE CRIMINALS ACT AS ROYALTY IN A DANGEROUS GAME OF BLOOD.

"So, this is how the game is actually played, he realised. He finally understood now. It had never been a contest of strength or numbers. It was a contest of who had more to lose... and who had everything to gain."

"I didn't ask to be in the middle of your ego-battle," I grumble. Blake pins me to my locker, hands resting on either side of my head. "Well, you got it in anyway, Darling," he whispers. His face is inches away from mine and damn me for licking my lips. I am NOT falling for these guys. And then, at the corner of my eye I spot Owen and his gang approaching. Well, that's just great. *** The West and East gang of Tygerwell have been at each other's throats since the dawn of time. And the two leaders of these gangs want to end the fight, once and for all. But fighting with fists is easy. Fighting with wit and charm, is a whole other ball game. Blake. West-side gang leader. Leather jacket and killer glare. Don't talk back. Owen. East-side gang leader. Fancy coat and toxic stare. Don't resist. And in comes Amber. Hair of gold and oceans in her eyes. Has too much sass for her own good and always, ALWAYS, manages to get into the middle of trouble. But these boys have no idea who they're really dealing with. And when Amber descovers she knows a little too much when it comes to guns and fighting, she has to question everything she thought she knew about herself. Three can play this game. *** "Let's settle this. You got rejected, I got rejected. It's only fair that the fate of the gangs be on who gets the girl first." "That sounds rather good, Rhodes. I'll take that bet on the golden girl." *** COMPLETED FICTION AWARDS: Best new story and best new account Highest ranking in Teen Fiction: #1 on 25/06/2018
Behind Closed Doors by Brooklyngirl1026
8 parts Complete Mature
I never thought my life would be like this; trapped in a dark room and scared for my life. A blindfold was wrapped around my head, covering my eyes, making me completely blind and on high alert. My breathing was ragged and I could smell the mold that was most likely covering most of the room. My hands were tied behind my back, my feet tied together and I was sitting on the floor, propped up against a wall. I heard a slight shuffling across the room that was coming closer to me. I tried my hardest to keep my breathing under control to seem confident and fearless, but in reality, I was shitting my pants and squealing like a scared little girl on the inside. To say I was terrified was a drastic understatement. I was petrified, shaking with fear, but they were not going to know that. "Who are you?!" I demanded. If I was going to die, it would be with the name of my kidnapper. A voice boomed closely to me, "Well, if I told you that, this wouldn't be any fun." **************** Skylar James, a 24 year old girl, is kidnapped by a very well known gang who has a vendetta against her family. In an attempt to find light in her situation, she makes friends with one of the members. Logan Grant was forced into the gang at the young age of 16. He was abused until he became emotionless and ruthless, so that one day, he could rule the gang. Everything was going smoothly until Skylar is brought in. With a blindfold wrapped around her head, he instantly feels bad for her, though he cannot show it. Afraid of getting caught, he shows no emotion while others are around. Though, behind closed doors is a whole other story.

I flash my teeth in the best fake smile I can muster. "Zane!! How nice to see you? Long time no see? You've been scarce." He glares at me. "You better watch your back Lyssa before you get into trouble." At my expression he smiles. Hard lines appear on his face as that sick smile spreads even further. "You know what this means don't you?" I sigh and shake my head. "It means that I'll just have to fight myself out of here." I grab my two automatic pistols already loaded and ready to fire. I point one straight at his chest and rest the tip of the other on my left temple. "If you're planning on killing​ me I'll just drag you down with me." ********* Two of the most feared and well known gangs in America have an old rivalry. The Wolverines vs the Wolves.
