Amelia groaned as he pulled her close their skin touched, she barely registered anything aside from his hot breath on her neck and the passion in his eyes, the Stars danced across her vision as he shoved her harder against the desk.

It's s happening again, I can feel the stare of whoever is watching me .its been going on for weeks, and I tried to shake off that feeling but it's s like no matter how I try it leaches stronger. I try to ignore the feeling as I get my daily coffee from the coffee shop across from my bookstore.
The bookstore, compared to the tall buildings surrounding it, appeared old. It had a blue exterior and a brown interior, It was the only thing I remembered my parents owning before the accident.
It always felt like bits of my memory were missing, and I always seemed not to remember the littlest things like what I even had for breakfast but that's not weird right?
I open the bookstore and start the day it's slow but it's s my safe space surrounded by books I couldn't be happier. I get a text from Jeremy making me frown a little.
"Amy I miss us, please forgive me I didn't mean to hit you and break your phone I just wanted to correct you " I look at the unknown number and sigh while blocking him again.
Me and Jeremy dated while we were in college and we seemed like the perfect couple, he was wanted by almost everyone on campus and he was the perfect boyfriend until he suddenly changed.
He became controlling, and obsessive, I couldn't make calls any longer without his knowledge, he followed my every move and restricted my movement the last straw was him hitting me, for talking to his friends and breaking my phone saying I loved and wanted the attention.
It was hard to finally leave his grasp no way I am going back to that.
Suddenly a customer interrupts me from my thoughts, I attend to the customer all the while getting a call from Eva, Eva has been close to me for as long as I can remember ever since Arlo disappeared.
She is a little loud and sassy but she's kind at heart well sometimes. Immediately I concluded with the customer, and a call from Eva came in.
"Hey bitch!!!" Eva screams immediately I pick up the call
"Eva don't yell so loudly, my heart can't take those " I smile packing my hair into a messy bun
"yeah yeah whatever so there is this new guy I saw at the supermarket and he's so cute just a little nerdy "she groans loudly
I chuckled "So the great Eva couldn't get him?"
"Girl!!! Don't play with me course I got his number but he invited me to his bookclub tomorrow and I hate books so I need your help "
"my help?? Common you couldn't even read the grocery list without getting bored of the letter"I state in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Exactly!! That's why I need you to read it and tell me the story when I come over "She laughs excitedly like it's the greatest plan she could think of
"text me the name of the book come over by 8"I sigh and massage my temples
"omg, I love you!! She says into the phone and ends the call, as I pack up the last order for the day to send out for delivery and lock up,
Suddenly The bell rings I look up to see the most beautiful man I have ever seen. As our eyes met, I felt an inexplicable jolt, like a spark of electricity had arced through my entire body.
His hazel eyes, flecked with gold, seemed to hold me captive, drawing me in. I couldn't help but stare, my heart skipping a beat as I took in the chiseled lines of his face, the strong jaw, and the captivating smile.
He was gorgeous in a way that made my breath catch and my pulse flutter. It felt as if time itself had slowed, leaving only the two of us suspended in our world. I pinch myself to bring myself to reality an odd behavior I seem to like
"Umm, what do you want?"I manage to compose my thoughts and ask him
He looks at me like I said the most weirdest thing ever
"A book?" He said raising a brow and crossing his arms like my question was the most interesting thing he had heard
I refuse to let him think he has won, regaining my composure immediately I scoff
"I meant what kind of book," I said not backing down, but then why am I acting like it's a competition for Christ's sake he's a customer though looking insanely hot he's still a customer
"I could give you recommendations based on your interests, what are your interests?"
I blurted out almost immediately in a formal tone before he could say something else.
"romance and werewolf "
"Romance and werewolf?" I said almost too loudly than I wanted to
"Is there something wrong with my order ?"
"No, you just strike me as the type who reads
thriller and mystery books "
I say while going across the shelves to pick out werewolf romance. I could feel his stare at my back it was too intense it reminded me of my stalker, I shook my head putting that behind me no way I was letting that bother me right now.
"How many do you want? , want to make your pick ?"
"No, I trust your choice pack everything "
"Oh okay", I say a little startled, trust my choice yeah right
As I pack the books the silence in the store is deafening but not uncomfortable
"um, what name am I writing it under?" I say breaking the silence
"Liam "
"Liam, not a bad name" writing it down and giving it to him.
"Well I am glad you think so Amelia "
Before I could ask him how he knew my name he left the store in a flash
Well, that was weird did he run to the door?
And how the hell does he know my name!!.

"You're mine, little puppy," Kylan growled against my neck. A soft gasp escaped my lips as his lips brushed my skin.
