Pawn Shop Pulp Fiction

"This marriage was just to please our parents, my heart belongs to someone else" He whispered to the woman with so much pain in his voice. “Can we just get the wedding over with?” She asked the man.  "We can't disappoint or embarrass our parents, you know," She said again.

I took a bullet for my boyfriend, Leo. When I woke up, I decided to play a little game. I told him I had amnesia. I wanted to see what he'd do. Instead, I saw a flash of excitement in his eyes. Next thing I know, he brings in his cousin. Dante. The Don of the family. "This is your fiancé, Dante. You've been engaged for two years." Dante. The man who supposedly hated me. Now he was staring at me like I was his whole world. "Yes," he said. "I'm your fiancé." Fine. I'll play along. I need to know what game Leo is playing. That night, I saw it. Security footage in Dante's mansion. Leo, in bed with another woman. He kissed her like he was starving. Pushed inside her. And he talked trash about me. "Let my cousin watch Bella for a while. She's so damn needy. You're what I really need, Scarlett." My heart shattered. He pawned me off on another man. Just so he could screw around. Fine. Two can play at that game. I'll get myself a new fiancé. I put on the wedding dress. I kissed Dante—a deep, devouring kiss, right in front of Leo. And that's when he finally broke. He lost his mind. Told me he was wrong and begged me to come back.

My best friend, Sydney Cox, is a troublemaker by nature. She thinks everyone around her owes her a good life. During summer break, she insisted on working in a factory. I was worried that she might get tricked, so I let her work in my family's factory out of the kindness of my own heart. In fact, I even gave her the easiest position with the lightest work. But I didn't expect her to think that her salary was lower than that of the veteran employees in the factory, leading to her setting fire to my neighborhood. The blaze was far too strong. Even though the firefighters came as soon as possible, my family and I still ended up dying in the fire. When I open my eyes again, I've returned to the day before Sydney's first day in a factory.

As a reader, we can fall in love with a Fictional Character. The words that the author use to define the physical attribute makes us readers fall in love with that character.

Zeke is a bad boy and an arrogant campus prince who's written to fell in love with Krisha Fajardo, the female lead character of the story. Unfortunately, Amira hasn't read the book completely because her professor caught her reading the book while his teaching. An unknown sender gives her a link to a site where she could continue to read the next part of the story. She doesn't know that this will be the way for her to enter another world. Another dimension. To meet her Love. Zeke Alejandro, the fictional character inside the book. Could she also be the main character of the story she accidentally went into?

If we psychologically damage an individual beyond repair, what will be the consequence of it? We all have a limit to the amount of mental and psychological stress we can take. Once the stress exceeds the limit, we’ll reach our breaking point. What happens after that is a mystery no one can solve, or is it? Lydia Johnson faces a similar situation. She is a complex young woman who faces a downfall stemming from the mental and physical abuse of her father and siblings, the negligence of her mother, and a chilling secret. From abused to loved, to abused again--that’s how life is for Lydia. Her family taught her only one lesson: emotions are for the weak and the weak don’t have a place in this world. With each kill, Lydia atones for the loss of her innocence by getting rid of another emotion and also rids the world of someone undeserving of her love and forgiveness. What lengths will she go to, for revenge, and prove her resilience? Will she ever be able to live her life like a normal person again? Or will she continue killing everyone until her own death?

Andrea Silva wurde gezwungen, den vermeintlichen Freund ihrer Zwillingsschwester Camila zu heiraten, nachdem diese von zu Hause davongelaufen war. Andrea war am Boden zerstört, als sie erfuhr, dass der Mann, den sie gerade geheiratet hatte, in ihre Schwester verliebt war – sie war nur eine provisorische Lösung gewesen, bis Camila zurückkehrte. Andrea glaubte, Damine Fel für sich gewinnen zu können. Doch was würde geschehen, wenn ihre Schwester zurückkäme und ihren Freund zurückhaben wollte? Was würde geschehen, wenn ihr Mann sie zur Scheidung zwingen würde?

Stimmen des Windes In den stillsten Winkeln der Welt, wenn die Nacht sich verdichtet und der Wind mit einem uralten Klagegesang flüstert, versuchen Stimmen an die Oberfläche zu dringen, die niemals hätten gehört werden dürfen. Es sind die Stimmen derer, die starben, belastet mit Schuld, die sich nicht mehr abwaschen lässt – Seelen, gezeichnet von schrecklichen Entscheidungen, die ihr eigenes Schicksal der Verdammnis besiegelten. Stimmen des Windes versammelt voneinander unabhängige, doch durch einen gemeinsamen, gespenstischen Faden verbundene Erzählungen: Jede der beschriebenen Gestalten ist in einem endlosen Zwischenreich gefangen, einem Ort, an dem die Zeit stillsteht und Reue zur ewigen Folter wird. Dort erleben die Toten ihre Fehler immer und immer wieder, während sie verzweifelt versuchen, die Grenze zu durchbrechen, die sie von Erlösung… oder Vergessen trennt. Doch sie sind nicht allein. Etwas anderes haust in diesem Grenzraum. Etwas, das sich von dem Leid nährt, das sie einst über sich selbst gebracht haben. Und wenn der Wind erneut aufkommt, verwandeln sich ihre einst kaum hörbaren Flüstern in Schreie – Schreie, die einen Zeugen unter den Lebenden suchen. Jede Geschichte offenbart ein Geheimnis, ein Verbrechen, einen Verrat… und eine Präsenz, die aus der Dunkelheit lauert, geduldig, hungrig, bereit, das einzufordern, was ihr gehört. Hör genau hin. Der Wind spricht. Und seine Stimmen wollen nicht vergessen werden.

Als Tochter eines Verbrecherbosses zu leben, ist niemals einfach—es gibt Regeln. Es ist ein Risiko, irgendwo ohne Waffe zu sein, und jede Form von Schwäche ist verboten. Doch sie wurde nicht als die Person geboren, die sie heute ist. Alles änderte sich an einem einzigen Nachmittag. Ariel Isadora trug eine Seele, verdunkelt von Hass auf jene, die sie bereitwillig dem Tod überlassen hatten. Sie wurde gerettet und aufgenommen, und schon bald wurde sie unter der Obhut des berüchtigten Andrew Spencer zu einem anderen Menschen. Drei Jahre später war aus ihr jemand geworden, der Gefahr und Furcht gleichermaßen anzog. Sie schwor Rache an denen, die ihr Leben so leichtfertig weggegeben hatten. Ihr Herz wurde zu Eis—zu etwas, das kein gewöhnliches Feuer zu schmelzen vermochte. Sie wurde Leira A’rodasi. „Wenn du leben willst, ist Schwäche keine Option“, sagte ihr Retter. Doch Liebe war eine Schwäche—und sie war unvermeidlich.

Disaster struck during my sophomore year.  Not only did my family fall into poverty, I ended up getting diagnosed with cancer as well. I was so broke that I only had a hundred dollars left to my name. Desperate for cash, I tried to pawn off the family amulet I had been wearing since I was a child. Unexpectedly, the storekeeper of the pawn shop took a glance before refusing it with a curt shake of his head. “This amulet is cursed. Whoever wears it is doomed to lead a short life. I can’t possibly take it.”
