"Be advised on initial contact you have information Bravo."I nodded to myself, jotting down the weather information and the contact code on my kneeboard. My headphones muffled the sounds of passengers boarding the flight.I was so immersed in my preflight work, I didn't notice the Captain enter the cockpit. My eyes scanned the master flight plan, double checking that all the numbers were correct. Oil, hydraulics, fuel, oxygen - everything was logged precisely down to the decimal. "Alright, flight plan is uploaded & we should be ready for pushback in about 10 minutes," I announced, finally looking over to my left. My eyes widened, taking in the sight before me. He was tall with dark chestnut hair that was styled in a casual manner & a pair of sunglasses covered his eyes. His skin had a gorgeous tan that had me jealous. The white material of his uniform stretched over his broad shoulders, neatly tucking into his navy coloured trousers. I blinked rapidly, averting my gaze as he took a seat beside me. "Apologies for the late arrival," he began, getting himself situated. "I'll let it slide this time," I muttered in response, fiddling with the APU switches overhead. He didn't reply, but his lips twitched as he put on his headphones. I stole a glance in his direction, trying to catch a glimpse of his name badge. There was no doubt he was a Captain, the 4 stripes on his epaulettes confirmed that. He didn't say much as he completed his checking of the instruments & systems before clearing his throat to make a PA announcement. "Ready?""Hm?""Start Checklist?""Oh yes, sorry," I muttered, reaching for the laminated checklist. "Gear pins?""Removed.""Lights?" "Check."We went through the checklist smoothly in a nice flow & I found myself enjoying his deep, soothing voice. "Checklist complete.""Confirm, checklist complete," I nodded, looking up from the sheet. His grey eyes met mine, making my breath catch in my throat.Well fuck.…

SEQUEL to Gaining Traction "Buckle up Moreno, it's time for the drive of your life," Dakota smiled, patting the front of his shiny car. "Tell Norris to get a good look at the back of my car. He'll be seeing it more often," Alessandro smirked under his helmet. "Hm, we'll see," she chuckled, taking a step back as the cars headed out onto the pit lane.

COMPLETED"Seems to me," he whispered, his lips brushing her ear, "that you have two heartbeats." "Oh really?" Dakota raised a brow, unconsciously pressing her thighs together. Alessandro hummed in response, his green eyes dark with lust. His racing suit hung loosely over his hips, the skin tight fireproof showing off his rippling muscles. "One here," he began, pushing a lock of hair off her shoulder. He took her hand, pressing it against her chest. Her heart hammered against her rib cage as if it was threatening to jump out. "Would you like to know where the other one is, Dakota?" Her breath hitched at her name leaving his lips. He spun her around, the two falling back onto the couch that was against the wall. She held her breath as he took her hand again. Slowly, he led her hand down her stomach. Lower. Lower.-------------------------The roar of V6 engines. The whirring of wheel guns.

I rounded the corner to the hall, only to smack into something. "I'm so sorry," I apologized, reaching down to pick up a book that had fallen. My heart skipped a beat as I looked up, making eye contact with a pair of hazel eyes."No worries," the boy replied, his voice rich and smooth, "Are you alright?"I nodded quickly, flashing a smile. I was too stunned to respond. Standing in front of me was none other than Prince Everest Dresden Macallister."Who are you?" he asked, tilting his head curiously."I'm Aspen," I replied, trying hard not to look away from his curious stare. "Dresden," he said, holding out his hand. I assumed he was going to shake mine, but instead he brought it to his lips, pressing a kiss against it. My breath caught in my throat, my cheeks burning. "Nice to meet you," I managed to say without stuttering. "My apologies, but I have to hurry. Miss Elizabeth has asked me to retrieve something."He nodded, stepping aside as I hurried into the room. I stood there, taking a deep breath to calm myself. Once I was done, I spotted the prince sitting by the window, the book that I'd picked up in his hand. I ducked my head and made a beeline to the door. "Aspen," he called, making me freeze."Yes?""Will you be attending the Charity Gala?"-------------------Aspen's only purpose living in London was to finish her semester abroad. Or so she thought. She finds herself caught in the middle of The Royal Family and their dark past as she scrambles to sort out the course of her future.

But it's not long before things start going south. Crush or no crush, Aspen doesn't have much time to prove her friendship to the future King. The clock is ticking. And time doesn't slow for anyone, Royal or not.…

I was surprised when she ran her hands down my abs, almost to the waist band of my pants. "Mila," I warned, watching her bite back a smile. There was unmistakable tension around us and I had no idea where it came from. Maybe it was the alcohol. I stared down at her, watching the sultry look on her face."What are you doing to me," I muttered, resting my forehead against hers. I barely had a chance to blink before her lips were pressed against mine. My hands found their way to her hips, gripping them tightly as she tugged at my hair. Spinning her around, I pinned her against the wall. It felt like my lungs were going to burst as I pulled away, breathing hard. Mila gazed up at me, her eyes glazed over and cheeks pink. She reached up, wiping what I'm assuming was her lipstick from my lips. I couldn't help but lean down and press my lips against hers again. It was almost as if I was addicted to the way she fit against my body. "Ajax, we're both drunk," she gasped as I bit down on her ear gently.We could deal with the consequences later.-------------------------------------------------------------------------TW: Mentions of Anxiety, Depression, and some suicidal thoughtsSome Mature content - I'll put a warning before ;)Highest ranking in Romance - #8 12/20Highest ranking in Dance - #1 12/22…

"The stars.""What about them?" he asked, raising a perfect eyebrow, stepping closer. I took a step back with every step he took forward. "They're watching over us."He seemed to think about my words before speaking. "Over us? Or you think they're watching over you.""I know they're watching over us."My back hit the railing as he stood less than a foot away from me. His lips parted, releasing a puff of smoke into my face. The smell made me feel sick, but I didn't show it. "Mon cœur, no one is watching over us. It's just a fragment of your little imagination," he said bitterly, a cold look passing over his face. He dropped his cigarette, snuffing it out with his shoe.

"So you're a Barça fan?" Marc clarifies."Definetly," I say."I approve," Marc says, nodding his head. "I mean doesn't everyone," I respond, flipping my hair.
