Wanted One Piece Novels & Stories

"I'm listening." I couldn't look at him. I kept my eyes on his chest. "If… hypothetically, you bought something — and when you got it home you realized it wasn't actually what you wanted in the first place. What would you do?" Lucian kept stroking my hand, steady. "I always get what I want." "No — hypothetically." A beat. "Not a big deal." I took a breath. "What if it was a person? What if… I'm not what you thought I was."

"Nobody cares if you feel like it's the right one. Adrian paid for the best, and that is the best. Just tell her yes so she can start the paperwork. I’m tired of standing around." Lucy looked at the shop owner, who was waiting with a pen and a clipboard. She looked at Zoe, who was already putting her heels back on, her mind clearly elsewhere. She looked back at the mirror and saw a girl who was losing the only man she ever truly loved. She didn't want to be here anymore. She didn't want to see the white silk or the pearls. She wanted the appointment to end so she could go home and hide in the dark. "I’ll take this one," Lucy said.

It wasn’t even just about jealousy. Deep down, beneath the rage, beneath the bitterness and denial, there was a raw ache I hadn’t felt in years. The truth was, I didn’t just want Ama back. I wanted Aurora too. I wanted all of her laughter, her stubbornness, her fire. I wanted her heart, even if I’d once shattered it. A sharp knock at the door interrupted my spiral. I didn’t bother answering. The door creaked open anyway. “My King,” my beta, Landon, stepped in with a grim expression. “We’ve got a situation at the border.”

Veronica was stunned. Her jaw fell open as she struggled to comprehend the words that came out of him. Conscious of her open mouth and blatant staring, she quickly snapped her mouth shut. "Y-your mate?" She asked quietly, trying to not show her devastation. "Yeah! Isn't this great?!" He said and gazed down at Rosie lovingly. Veronica felt her heartbreak into pieces and she willed herself not to cry in front of all these people. She had only ever wished for him to look at her with that look. She had dreamed of it but suddenly this stranger appeared and took away everything she could have ever wanted.

I turned away from him and continued my search. I finally found what I needed, I found a simple black dress that was short with a small split in front and open black which has tiny straps, it was a really nice dress and I instantly fell in love with it, I took it off the rack as I walked pass Matthew without sparing him a glance, I can imagine that annoying smirk he had on his face.

His eyes instantly lit up. "Andrew! Are you here to help me? I knew you wouldn't abandon me!" After hearing my name, Josie looked surprised. She walked toward me quickly. When she saw the medical report in my hand, she instinctively asked, "Why are you here? Did your wound not heal properly?" Just as she reached for my report, Alex wrapped his arms around hers. "Andrew, Josie told me that although our organ match is high, there's still a problem. I'm still missing a sperm duct to have normal reproductive function.

"...but I do know one thing." Dane raised an eyebrow. "What?" She closed her file. "From today onward..." "We're about to witness a very entertaining chase." "...With those two as the main characters." Dane looked confused. "What chase?" "Victor already likes Shirly." Kiara slowly shook her head. "No." "He merely admired Shirly." "What he truly can't bear..." "...is watching Lillian walk away." Neil buried his face in both hands. "Oh no..." "Now we have to watch my parents romance too?"

she informs with an arched brow. "Too much, Ma!" I shake my head, pulling away from her. "I have to work, see you guys later." I back wave as I head outside. So for my plus one I need a female that is smart. Has a banging body. Funny. And mother approved. My boots scuff to a stop on the concrete. Where the hell am I going to find a woman like that? Maybe I can pay someone, or do a mail order bride and send her back in a month.

He flinched. “Max... you’re mine. Just as much as Icarus is. I didn’t choose this. None of us did. But if there’s one thing I know... it’s that feeling isn’t the problem. The problem is running from it like it’s a curse. We can make this work.” He looked at me with teary eyes, armor gone for the first time. “I don’t know if I can share you.” “Then learn. Because I won’t choose between pieces of my soul. And if you leave... don’t expect me to come after you again.”

Adeniran at regular intervals to make sure she was okay. Every step Muhammad took as he walked towards his car brought the image of Caroline and her mom to his mind. Whoever the monster was, he was going to make sure he did his best to nab them before they killed another lady. His boss had given him four weeks to find ‘The First One.’ The psycho now had five bodies to his name. Muhammad hoped the body of the killer was going to be the next and final one.
