I want
nothing but to escape the bitterness and emptiness surrounding me....
I'm,
Olivia Rey, a product of an unwanted pregnancy and since that day forward my
world has not beeneasy. My mother's anger at not being able to hold on to my
'father' made her lash out all her hatred and venom at me growing up. So, I did
the only thing I could to survive, I enclo...sed my heart until I can be in the
light.
All I
want is to be surrounded in darkness to not feel...
I'm,
Phoenix Ryan, I have lived a life of privilege with no boundaries making me
feel invincible. Then when I was on a high, tragedy came crashing down on me
and cast me into a world where I was left numb. So I did the only thing I could
to survive I enclosed my heart, so I could walk into the darkness.
Will
theses two guarded hearts eclipse into each other to find love, or will they be
forever guarded.

Excerpt
#1
Bro,
step on it. Don’t be a pussy,” I yell. I am fucking wasted. I feel like I am
flying super high. We are going home after a party that was being held at this
abandoned warehouse outside of town. It was a secret party since there was
going to be a lot of underage drinking and drugs involved.
“Nix
what if we get pulled over? I can’t get a fucking ticket, my parents will kill
me,” Sky says, paranoid.
“Dude,
my fucking father is the town judge. He will make sure nothing happens. Come
on, there is a reason this car can go 180 mph. Step on the gas.”
“Fuck,
this feels awesome, bro. We are flying,” Sky says, laughing.
I stick
my head out the window, feeling the night’s air on my face.
“Fuck
yeah, we are fucking seniors. Can’t wait to leave this place and start getting college
pussy,” I scream into the night.
Then I
feel the flames of hell consume me.
Excerpt #2
I was
around four years old the last time I cried. I had fallen outside my friend
Mandy’s house. I scrapped my knee and the blood was running down my legs and
onto my new socks. I didn’t cry from the pain; I cried because my mother was
going to be so upset that I ruined my new socks. She was either going to spank
me or put me to bed without dinner. Mandy’s mom picked me up and sat me on her
lap while she sent Jenny to get a wet paper towel and some Band-Aids. She told
me to stop crying, that she knew it was going to sting, but it was going to
feel better in a bit. She hugged me tight and cuddled me while we waited. I had
never felt that kind of warmth before; my mother never hugged me and she
certainly never cuddled me. Those were the best three minutes of my life, it
felt so nice that I didn’t care if I went to bed without dinner for a whole
week or got spanked.
“Olivia!
Where are you? Aye wuerca,” I heard my mother yell from the front yard. Mrs.
Scott was just putting on my Band-Aid when my mother knocked on the
door.
“Vicki,
she’s here. She just fell and scraped her knee, but she is okay now,” Mrs.
Scott told my mother. As she set me on the floor she kissed my head, I cried
some more, but it was happy tears this time. Mandy was so lucky.
“Well,
thank you, Barbara, for taking care of my pumpkin,” she replied with her fake
smile.
She
extended her hand towards me so that I could take it, and as soon I did she
squeezed it hard and I started crying again, and we started to walk towards our
trailer.
“Olivia,
I told you to stop crying. Do you want me to give a reason to cry? Only weak,
pathetic people cry. If you keep cryingLa LLorona will
come get you because she will think you are her niña. You won’t want to be
taken by her, because even though you are afraid of me I would never kill you
like she killed her children, so be grateful to me,
bastardita,” she told me.
I still
didn’t know if I should have been grateful or not, because I still hadn’t seen
the light in life.
