In the shadows of Mystic Falls, Aella Bennett isn't just another witch. As a half-Bennett, half-elemental, her power is raw and complex, her destiny bound to the vampire-fueled chaos consuming her hometown. Orphaned young and raised by her formidable grandmother, Aella believed she understood her family's legacy and the dangers that came with it. But as she steps deeper into the supernatural world of Mystic Falls, she discovers secrets that push her loyalties and strength to the limit. Thrust into a world where ancient feuds and dark magic threaten her loved ones, Aella finds herself drawn to Stefan Salvatore, balancing love with the risk of her growing powers. As her abilities awaken, Katherine Pierce returns, making Mystic Falls a deadly maze of betrayal and manipulation. Through heartbreak and unexpected betrayal within her own family, Aella learns the limits of her power-and the strength she didn't know she had. But with darkness closing in, for Aella Bennett, death may just be the beginning.

Mystic Falls hasn't been the same since Aella Bennett arrived. She's changed the lives of her friends, family, and even the town itself-but the arrival of Katherine Pierce and the Originals is about to bring her toughest challenge yet. With a new power awakening inside her, Aella is forced to trust herself in ways she never has before. She's been a survivor, a fighter, and a protector, but can she face off against the ruthless Katherine and the legendary Originals while keeping her loved ones safe? Follow Aella in Book 2 of The Elemental Difference Series as she fights to protect her town, her boyfriend, and everyone she holds dear. Her strength and wit will be tested like never before as she steps up to face the darkest forces Mystic Falls has ever known.

The name of the town should've been her first hint. 'Mystic Falls' It was like she was asking for trouble. TVD S1-4 (OC ~ MJ Ruiz): Kol x OC Some mature content; it will be labelled appropriately :)

Hayden Bentley stopped aging when he was eighteen, and was killed at thirty by a werewolf, only to come back as a full fledged vampire. He still had his human perks; he didn't need to feed, and he could stand in the sun without a daylight ring. He kept to himself for over 800 years, then he saw a young tribrid by the name of Hope Mikaelson. She would change his life forever, and keeping her safe would become his number one priority. No matter the cost. |CURRENTLY BEING EDITED| |BOOK TWO IS OUT NOW: REALITY| #4 in Hopemikaelson on 12/8/2020 #1 in theoriginals on 12/13/2020
