Run, Girl (If You Can)

Keeley, a simple plain Jane, hits the jackpot. [No, she did not win the lottery!] At least that's what she thinks when she marries the most eligible bachelor in New York City: Aaron, a wealthy cold-hearted heartthrob and Tycoon. She wants to show the world that she deserves her position and bends over backward to fit into his world. One beautiful day, Aaron hands her a document asking her to sign. A divorce paper... "She's pregnant, and I need to take responsibility." That is the last thing that keeps on playing in her mind before she takes her last breath. Keeley dies, a 'hit and run'. [End of story. Not!] For some unexplainable reason, she wakes up as her younger self. A young high school girl, around the time when she first meets her cheating husband. Remembering her life with Aaron before she died, she makes a promise to herself that she will do everything in her power to avoid him at all costs. Will she be able to keep her promise when Aaron has his own plans as well, specifically for her? Or will she repeat history and fall for him once more... Why not journey with me and find out the truth behind their story. *Cover art by polkadottedscrunchie*

Something Changed

Keeley was working on a homework assignment on her computer when she needed to go to the bathroom. Upon her return to the table, Molly had taken her spot and was sprawled across the keyboard.

"Come on, I was using that," she complained. "Move, kitty!"

She tried nudging the cat to no avail. Molly had turned into a statue. Frustrated, Keeley was about to pick her up and move her by force when a pair of arms wrapped around her from behind. Aaron was home.

He slumped over and buried his face in her shoulder. Was he shaking?

"What's wrong?"

"I might have some bad news," he admitted.

"What kind of bad news?"

"You might want to sit down for this." He led her over to the couch and made sure she was comfortable before continuing.

"Someone sent Cameron a share transfer document today, telling him to congratulate me and consider it a gift. Not only do they know about my dummy shareholders, they seem to know about you."
