Unmasked

Trashing someone's house is as easy as counting numbers off your fingers - at least for Aria and Jay.

After a fateful night that irrevocably changed Aria's life; she finds herself in trouble with a celebrity, befriending her long-lost childhood friend who mysteriously disappeared five years ago, getting into arguments with an arrogant CEO, encountering a masked villain, and pulling more pranks than ever before.












Interview

1. Please tell the readers a bit about yourself.

I'm 17 and I'm from Malaysia. I have an unhealthy obsession with shoes, books and potato chips (preferably barbecue). I love baking, writing, listening to music, my family and making people smile. I have 5 dysfunctional siblings whom I love to death and two equally wacky parents which I wouldn't change for the world.

I'm currently taking a shoe course (Yes, my obsession has gone to an extent where I have to learn how to make shoes) while waiting to enter university where I will be taking alternative medicine. :-)

2. What types of books do you write?

Humor/Romance/Teen Fiction.

3. How many books have you written?

Two.

4. What movie and/or book are you looking forward to this year?

The Hobbit 2, of course. (An avid LOTR fan over here!)

5. What type of books do you enjoy reading?

Crime, Psychological thriller, Romance, Mystery, Classics and Humor.

6. If you were stranded on a desert island what 3 things would you want with you?

1. An axe
2. A 'How to survive on a deserted island 101 for dummies' manual.
3. Ropes

7. Are you considering a sequel?

For Unmasked yes, but it will be focusing more on other characters.

8. What inspired you to become a writer?

When I was still in high school, my teacher always told me I had potential, I just needed to improve my style of writing. So when I was sixteen, I decided to try it out. The feedback I received from my friends were lovely, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. So I've been writing ever since.


Excerpt

There was silence as Aria twiddled with her thumbs. Nate spoke up. “Do you know why you’re here, Miss Cruz?”

She was quiet for a while. “I can’t believe I trashed your house.” She said quietly, her face downcast.

Nate was satisfied with her answer. Surely she knew what she got herself into.

She looked up suddenly and spoke animatedly. “Do you have the tape? Do you know what this means? If I put the video up I’ll be rich! It’ll be an instant-”

“Silence!” he snapped in annoyance. “This will not be spoken about outside of this room. Utter a single word Miss Cruz and you’ll be in debt for life.” He threatened with a menacing look on his otherwise handsome face.

To his astonishment, the girl chuckled. Chuckled! Like he had said something funny.

“Oh! Now I know why you’re an actor too,” she gasped out, once her laughter subsided. “You’re good.” She grinned.

He held his head between his hands and groaned. He looked up at her, “Don’t you know the severity of this situation?” he asked with desperation lacing his tone.

“Quit the dramatics buddy, this is hardly ‘severe’,” she muttered indifferently.

He scoffed. “You trespassed a private property. And not only that, you trashed the place. You’re lucky I’m not suing you for this, buddy.”

Aria rolled her eyes. “What do you want me to do? Not say anything about this? Done. No one would even believe me. And besides, what's up with your security? I expected your house to be secured by security alarms”

"It was disabled since that night; it should be fixed in no time." He muttered. Nate sat up straighter in his chair and nodded his head. “And because of your outrageous act, you’ll have to come here after school every day to clean it up, with your partner in crime of course.”

Aria remembered the rules Jay’s parents gave her. “What partner?” She asked looking everywhere but him and letting out a nervous chuckle.

Nate gave her a pointed look. “The blond in the mask.”

When she didn't reply, Nate attempted to threaten her. “If you don’t tell me her name, I’ll have my guys find out in your school until they find her.”

She looked up in alarm, “Look, I’ll do everything you tell me to, just don’t drag her in this. It was my idea anyway.”

Nate raised his eyebrows and sighed resolutely. “Alright. And after you’re done, whatever job is thrown your way you’ll take it, no questions asked.”

She clenched her jaw. “Fair enough.”

When the charming heart-breaker returns next door to Divya, he holds more than a key to her locked heart; he has answers that can set her free to break the promises she made.

BOTM - Invisible Love by MyHeartsMistake


Invisible Love

Love was a myth that I firmly believed in, because maybe there really was such a thing as a prince charming and a happily ever after. And maybe, just maybe, Zayn Malik was the proof that fairytales exist.

David Constantine was normal, human. Keyword: was. Suddenly thrust into a ten-thousand year war between two races he never even knew existed as the final gear in an ultimate weapon you could say his life has become a bit more interesting. Considerable power of his own is a bonus, though when you have enemies of this caliber it's kind of a necessity. Add a dash of revenge, a squeeze of deceit and just a pinch of sarcasm and viola, you have a Kinetic. You have David. Welcome to Valhalla.

8. What inspired you to become a writer? 

Well when we were little my father would ground us and send us to our rooms quite a bit. Since there was nothing else to do we read, and quickly became addicted. I just never stopped.


Excerpt

“Pathetic” he muttered, stamping his boot down in my unarmoured hand, “Even you have to be able to do better than this.” He batted away my arm as he reached forward, laying his palm on my forehead. Almost instantly the burning began again. Then in a low voice that only I could hear he whispered “do you still hear her screaming Atlas? The Archons told us everything; how you just let her die.”

I roared in fury as I sent out a powerful shockwave, ignoring the agony in my head. Balian flew off me, landing in a heap after a few seconds flight. As we both stood up his face paled, realising what he had provoked.

Using my power I flicked him into the air, holding him there while I peeled the armour off him like a tin can. The broken pieces of his armour fell like rain as I dropped him to the ground in just his under suit, in vain he tried to back up; I held him in place as the killing rage took over.

“You have no idea what I’m capable of” I muttered as I walked towards him. Holding up my bare hand blue lightning crackled along my fingertips; generated purely from the energy I controlled. As he tried to shout out I closed his mouth, looking at him with hatred.

Shooting my hand forward a continuous stream of the pure lightning lanced forward and struck the unarmoured Reaver, I could hear him try to scream as I still held his mouth closed.

‘Stop it David!’ Serena’s voice called out pleadingly, ‘you’re going too far!’

But it was too late; the rage had taken me and I would not be deterred so easily.

“Do not interfere” I snarled, holding up my hand in a claw.

At once every Archaean in the arena was raised from the ground, clutching at their throats. Only now did I let Balian speak.

“What the hell are you?” he whimpered, still rooted to the spot.

“I’m not quite sure” I snarled back, “but I’d like to find out.”

Yes, Master

In England, Rosalie works as a maid for a high-society family to support her poor family. Treated cruelly by her mistress, Rosalie slaves away day after day, wishing for an easier life.  She is surprised when a way out comes in the form of a proposition from her mistress's handsome son.















Excerpt

I scurry in, keeping my head bowed. His mother is shouting commands at me, her blue skirts swirling around her like sea spray. She twists this way and that, pointing and making demands. "Oh, do clean the windows. You've let them get awfully dirty," she says in an accusatory tone, as if to say I haven't been working hard enough. I peek out meekly from beneath my stringy hair. I've been staying late at work and haven't had the time to wash.

"Yes, I will get right to it," I squeak. "Don't say! Do!" she yells, her alabaster face turning red with rage.

I hurry over to get the pail, soap, and washrag, and set to work. I'm sponging down the stained glass windows, my arms aching, when he comes in. He, being my mistress's son. He, being the boy who is the handsomest boy in the country, quite possibly the world. He, who all the girls titter about at the balls and parties. He, who I am hopelessly and utterly in love with, though I myself don't even get why. He paces around the room, his eyes lowered, muttering something to himself. I continue my work, pretending I don't notice him. Pretending I'm not listening to whatever he's saying. Pretending I'm not noticing the way the sun hits his hair, turning it an almost preternatural shade of gold.

All of a sudden, he straightens and says my name. "Rosalie," he says, the name sounding so beautiful as it rolls off his tongue.

At the sound of my name, I immediately stop my work,  surprised. He rarely talks to me, except to tell me what's expected of him and me at parties and the occasional shallow chat when no one is around.
