"If I'd have known that talking to Brooklyn would change your mind then I would have suggested you do that as soon as you started to disagree with me."Indianna scowled at Greyson who smirked at her as she approached him. "Shut up."Greyson reached out and took Indianna's hand, pulling her towards him. "Thank you," he murmured."I'm still annoyed," Indianna grumbled and looked down at her feet, glaring."Hey." Greyson took Indianna's chin and tilted her head up. "Please don't be. You're keeping yourself and our children safe. That's the most important thing. Don't scowl at me, sugar.""You're important."Greyson smiled and kissed Indianna's forehead affectionately. "God, I love you, woman."Karl suddenly yelled from across the room. "They're here! Fucking hell, you took your time, lads! It's not like we're waiting for a psychopath to come and kill us or anything!""You just can't keep your mouth shut, can you?" Harry groaned, but made his way over to where Kal was now standing, over t
"Please don't call yourself that," Indianna said."It's true. I can't be trusted-""Would a monster feel remorse?" Indianna asked, cutting Tai off. "Do you think Rogue feels remorse over his actions?""That is different-""You are not a monster, Tai," Indianna insisted. "You didn't do what you did on purpose. As you said, you lost control. What happened has happened, it can't be taken back. The only thing we can do now is focus on the present. Tai, will you help us now?"It was a few moments before Tai acknowledged that Indianna had spoken. She pursed her lips and gave one sharp nod. "I need to wash this blood off of me," she said and turned on her heel and disappeared into Indianna's room.Indianna made her way to Greyson's room next. The scent of him surrounded her when she entered and she closed her eyes, caressing her bump. She didn't want to go without him. Indianna swallowed the lump in her throat and changed out of the clothes she had been wearing for dinner. Once she was in sw
DAY ONEIndianna was woken by Kal's snores, they were soft, but she had been struggling to sleep the whole night and now all she could focus on was Kal's heavy breathing. She sighed and turned over, trying to get comfortable which was rather hard with her bump. She was now looking at Greyson as he slept. He seemed so peaceful. His face was so calm and serene, she wished that he didn't have to wake up to the hell they were in.Greyson's eye twitched and Indianna knew that he was no longer asleep. He reached out, wrapping his arms around her and pulling her into his chest, resting his chin on her head and one hand on her stomach. *It's early, sugar, you should be asleep, not perving on me while I sleep.*Indianna chuckled slightly. *Sleep doesn't come easily these days.**Try,* Greyson pleaded. *It's 2am. You need your rest.**So do you.**I'm fine. I'm swapping watch duty with Oscar soon anyway.*The rest of the previous day was spent waiting anxiously for Oscar, Kirstie and Mac to ret
Indianna forced a smile. "I would never."Greyson chuckled. "Are you not eating any more, sugar?"Indianna stared down at the food on her plate, feeling full. She had taken a lot more food than she could manage to consume. She shook her head.Greyson turned to his sister. "Has she actually eaten a decent breakfast?""Greyson, I've eaten!" Indianna argued.Kirstie rolled her eyes. "Trust your mate, you dick. She ate enough for a whole family.""Great. In that case." Greyson took Indianna's plate from her and sat down between the two girls, tucking into the remains of Indianna's breakfast."We better get organised," Mac said, running his hand along Kirstie's thigh. "We gotta a lot of men to get today.""No rest for the wicked," Kirstie sighed and jumped up from the floor. "Let's go tear down Rogue's empire, lover."Mac chuckled and let Kirstie pull him up from the floor. "Let's do this.""You know," Oscar said, furrowing his eyebrows as he stood up with Kirstie and Max , "you'd think th
This is a side story to Shy following Harry and Brooke.You don't need to read Shy to understand this, but I'd massively appreciate it if you did.I'm going to say this now as a warning:This book is set in America but all the characters will most probably use British words and not be American-like at all.Please don't moan, it's my book and I want it that way, deal with it.Also, the guys in this book will be assholes. You can have a little whinge about it in the comments if you feel you really have to, but please don't comment how it's "too much" and how you hate the book and are going to stop reading.I've had numerous comments like that on Shy and it is horrible to read people slating your work.I'm not saying I expect everyone to love my stories, you can hate it if you want but please don't comment it and say how you're going to stop reading.If you're going to stop reading just do it, there's no need to announce it to the world.And lastly, I'm not sure how I'm going to end this
"Oh, Brooke, dear, you've grown into such a beautiful young woman!" Her aunt, Lisa, gushed, admiring her niece with adoration. "I'm wonderful dear, now you're here.""Thanks, Lisa," Brooklyn said, blushing from the compliment."Brooklyn, it's a pleasure to have you staying with us," her uncle, David, said and ruffled Brooklyn's curly blonde hair."Thanks for letting me stay," Brooklyn said sincerely. "Mum and dad are driving each other mental.""Tell us something we don't know," David muttered and shook his head. "I've never seen a more stressful divorce.""It's been crazy, but I am glad I'm away from them," Brooklyn shrugged."I'm glad you're with us," Lisa smiled. "I'm going to start dinner, it should be ready within the hour.""Okay," Brooklyn nodded and made her way back over to her bed where a magazine was laying."Oh, Brooklyn, I almost forgot; school starts tomorrow."*"It's... Cute?" Brooklyn desperately searched for a nice word to describe the bricked building in front of he
"I don't want to know what would happen if they got their claws into me," Brooklyn admitted and grinned sheepishly. "Am I mean for judging them so quickly?""Not at all," Sasha laughed. "They are bitches, trust me. You don't want to be in that 'clique'.""I'll take your word for it," Brooklyn nodded and looked down at her timetable. "Hey, can you help me find my lesson, since Brandon ditched me?""Course, what have you got?" Sasha wondered and looked at Brooklyn's timetable. "History, I have the same lesson, let's go!" She said happily and turned on her heel and started walking down the busy corridor with Brooklyn.Brooklyn studied Sasha as they walked. She was pretty, with short brown hair and a doll like face. She seemed rather confident and didn't look like she would take shit from anyone. She was nice enough to help the random new girl, that earned her a tick in Brooklyn's books."What's up, bitch?" Sasha said casually as they walked into a half filled classroom. Sasha grinned at
"I wouldn't say Harry is scary like Greyson, I would say he is threatening," Sasha corrected."They sound lovely," Brooklyn said and chuckled. "I'll make sure to stay clear of them.""If we see them we'll point them out so you can hide. They're probably going to be interested in you because you're new. We hardly ever get new people in this town.""Great," Brooklyn muttered."You'll be fine, they aren't that bad. Just be careful around Greyson and Harry," Sasha instructed."If Kal does anything stupid then I'll just fill his locker with fish guts again," Alice shrugged and laughed. "I'd pay to see his reaction again."*Brooklyn was lucky enough to have most of her lessons with Sasha, Alice and Violet who Brooklyn had been introduced to. Violet was pale with long dark hair, reminding Brooklyn of Violet out of The Incredibles.The three girls seemed lovely and Brooklyn clicked with them immediately. They had informed her of all the schools gossip and pointed out everyone of importance.
I walked into my last class of the day. I was late.The teacher scowled at me, but realised I was new and told me to take a seat.I looked around the class and spotted Eli sitting with Hampson in the middle of class. My eyes landed on Emma who was seated with her orange looking new friends, she had an empty seat next to her. The next empty seat was next to Kent who smirked darkly at me. The final empty seat was near the back of the class, next to Jasper and Ivan.I looked at Kent and Emma before gritting my teeth and walking to the back of the classroom and taking a seat next to Jasper.He turned to me with a small smirk. "You must really hate the other two if you're choosing to sit next to me.""You have no idea," I muttered."What did the guy say to you? When you kicked him the day you got here?" Jasper asked quietly."What do you care?" I snapped."It must've been something pretty bad," Jasper pushed."It's none of your business," I said and glared at him. "Now do me a favour and s
Jasper rolled his eyes and I gritted my teeth. I did not like this Kyle kid. "Fell off my motorbike," I snapped."Really? Must've been a rough night," he said and I glared at him."Yeah, just a little bit," I growled and I felt Eli's hand clamp around my wrist as I started to rise from my seat."Stop it, Kyle," Jasper said with a chuckle."So, how are you guys enjoying it here?" Sammy asked."The people are assholes," I said."Daisy," Eli warned. "Calm your anger.""Schools not that bad, what's there to be angry about?" Sammy smiled and I gave him a murderous glare."I'm sure she can think of something," Jasper murmured."I'm going," I said and looked at Eli. "Get off me.""Don't rise to them, princess," Eli said in my ear, but I ignored him."Let go of me, Eli," I hissed and tried twisting my arm from his grasp.When he didn't let go I scowled at him and grabbed the pen off the desk and aimed it towards his thigh."Fucking hell, Daisy!" He snapped and caught my wrist."Eli, I'm not k
"Does it hurt?" Eli asked."My thumb? No," I said. "My hand," I raised my left hand that had the bandages on. "Fucking kills. They even put stitches on my hand. I didn't realise it was that bad.""How hard did you punch the wall?" Carter asked."Hard enough to split my skin open," I shrugged."What about the stitches on your head?" Tom frowned."Police brutality," I said simply as Eli drove into school."What are you going to tell people if they ask what happened?" Eli asked me when we got out of the car."Fell off my motorbike or something," I shrugged and he walked up to me."You look like shit," he said."Thanks, you're really up for cheering me up today, aren't you?" I snapped.Eli grabbed my arm and I didn't tense at all. He pushed the sleeve of my jumper up and ran his fingers over the needle marks. "We'll find out what they did," he said lowly and I pulled my arm away, pushing my sleeve down and crossing my arms over my chest."You can't act like you know what they did," I said
"Everyone piss off!" Eli called. "Blake, help me check her injuries."Blake and I followed Eli through the house into the room reserved only for us. Eli passed Blake his phone and Blake nodded."The police called," Blake said. "You're meant to be behaving yourself, Daisy."I could tell that Blake clearly knew it wasn't the police he spoke to.Eli was next to me and he pulled his shirt off and passed it to me."What happened to your hand?" Blake asked as I turned my back to them and pulled my top over my head."I punched a wall," I said truthfully and unclipped my bra. "One too many times." I slipped Eli's tshirt on and quickly took my leggings, underwear, socks and shoes off and bundled them up, passing them to Eli. We had to burn all of my clothes, they could be bugged.Eli walked out of the room and and Blake pointed to the couch."You're meant to be working on your anger, Daisy," Blake said and I couldn't help but smirk."Fuck off," I scoffed and I laid down on the sofa. Eli return
I had tried to stay awake, but sleep caught up with me and I was jolted awake when the door flew open and Jasper walked in."Is it time for more questions?" I asked sarcastically.He looked at my bloody hand that was throbbing. "What did you do?""I punched the door. Nothing happened. So later I punched it again, and again, and again," I shrugged. "It's okay, I can still do this with it." I stuck my middle finger at him and he narrowed his eyes at me."Get up," he said and grabbed my arm. He handcuffed my arms behind my back and then pushed me out of the room. We didn't go far, only down the hall and into a white room with hospital beds and medical equipment. It stank of antiseptic and bleach."Is this her?" A middle aged woman asked, walking up to us in a white lab coat.Jasper nodded."Uncuff her, Jasper," the woman frowned. "You're treating her like a criminal!""She is," Jasper shrugged."You've done worse," the woman said and Jasper unlocked the handcuffs. "Hello, Daisy, I'm Made
One hour:Nothing had happened.Two hours:Still nothing.Three hours:I was getting pissed off.Four-The door swung open and I looked up, crossing my arms over my chest. "Nice of you to pop in," I said and narrowed my eyes at the man who walked in. He was around 40 with light blonde hair that was cropped neatly. He had piercing blue eyes and was wearing dark jeans and a white button up shirt.Somehow, he pulled it off, managing to look relatively cool, but also quite scary.I stood up and leant back against the mirror as Jasper entered the room and shut the door behind him.The man looked at me. He stood still. Stiff. But his blue eyes looked me over, darting from side to side. "Sit, Daisy," he said and walked over to the table in the middle of the room. He took a seat and looked up at me."I'm good here," I said and eyed him and Jasper cautiously."I'm sorry about the way we had to get you here-""Are you?" I challenge and the man narrowed his eyes at me, not happy about being inte
UNKNOWN"Dad," the guy said as he walked into his fathers office. "I've found her."The man sat up in his chair and looked at his son. "Are you sure?""Positive. She's the one who killed the agent.""Good work, bring her in to be questioned and then we'll arrest her and send her to prison," the man said sharply."Dad, have you seen a picture of her?" The guy asked and walked up to his fathers desk."No, just bring her in," the man snapped.The guy took the picture of the girl and slid it across her desk. "Her name is Daisy Kellerman, and I think you should take a look," the guy said and the man sighed, picking up the crumpled picture. His expression darkened and he stiffened."Bring her in," the man said immediately. "I don't care how and find out everything you can about her.""So I assume I wasn't making a random guess about who she is," the guy said and the man took a deep breath."Bring her in. I don't care how you do it. We'll have answers then.""So, how did today go?" Blake ask
My next class was literature and I really wasn't feeling it. I wandered around the school until I found a door that led outside. I smirked and walked round the back of the school, leaning back against the wall and reaching into my jacket pockets that I had luckily left my cigarettes in.I took one out of the packet and slipped it into the back of my jeans. I then grabbed my lighter and lit the cigarette, sighing in content.I was alone for a while, but then I footsteps and I looked to the side as the silver haired guy and Asian guy walked round the corner. There eyes landed on me and they seemed surprised to see me."First day and you're already skipping," the silver haired guy called and they walked up to me. "Are you going to walk off if we talk to you?""Not if the conversation is interesting," I shrugged."Why are you here?" The guy asked."Bored," I sighed and I pushed myself off the wall, but I didn't get far. The guy grabbed my shoulder and pushed me back. "Jesus, what's your p
I was sitting outside of the house on the steps. It had been an hour since I had arrived and I already hated it."Hello!"I looked to the side as a little girl with pig tails sat next to me and looked up with big brown eyes."Hey," I said."I'm Lily," she said and held her hand out.I chuckled and shook it, she looked no older than 8. "Daisy."She gasped. "We both have flower names! That so cool!""Hmm," I nodded."What happened to your face?"I cursed the bruises on my face. I was a fast healer, but bruises seemed to stay for weeks. "Nothing," I shrugged."It had to be something, silly," Lily said."I was punched," I said and Lily gasped."What!""Joking," I said smoothly and chuckled at Lily who let out a big sigh."Phew," she said. "So what happened?""I walked into a door," I lied."Now that was silly," Lily giggled."It was, wasn't it?" I nodded and I stiffened when I heard footsteps. It was the guys from across the road."Sammy!" Lily grinned and jumped up from the steps and ran
