a slow-burn, emotional story about Brandon King-a quiet, autistic artist haunted by past trauma and unable to draw the faces, especially the eyes, of those around him. That is, until he meets the Heathens: five powerful, intimidating young men who unexpectedly become his protectors, his comfort, and eventually, his home. As Brandon begins to heal in their presence, the faces on his sketchpad begin to change... and for the first time, the eyes he draws are full of life, love, and belonging. All characters except my originals belong to Rina Kent. Everything is written by ChatGBT with my Ideas. English is not my first language.

After enduring years of neglect and cruelty from her mother and stepfather, Ariana's life changes drastically when tragedy brings her under the guardianship of five brothers she's never met and they never even knew they had a sister. For her brothers, learning they have a sister is an unwelcome surprise. Suspicious and reluctant, her brothers see Aria as an outsider, a stranger disrupting the fragile balance of their lives. For Aria, their home is both a new beginning and a constant reminder of the family that left her behind. Haunted by the pain of her past, Aria struggles to adjust, her every action guarded and her trust hard to earn. As her brothers try to understand her, they begin to glimpse the scars she hides and the strength she carries. Little by little, resentment turns to empathy, and the walls between them start to crumble. But just as the siblings begin to find common ground, the secrets and trauma of Aria's old life threaten to tear them apart. Together, they must decide whether they can overcome the shadows of the past to forge a family and whether Aria can finally find a place to belong.

[⚠️ Chapter 41+ are paid content via Ko-fi ⚠️] ── ─ ┈┈┈┄┄╌╌ The De Luca brothers reign supreme in the underworld, holding dominion over the ruthless realm of the Italian Mafia. They are cold, merciless, driven by madness, their loyalty solely to blood. Yet, their lives take an unexpected turn when they discovered their thirteen years old little sister. *** "When she was choking me, is that... love?" she whispered, her voice barely audible, each word trembling as if afraid to leave her lips. Her eyes, wide and glassy, searched mine desperately, seeking a truth that she couldn't grasp amidst the fog of confusion and despair that clouded her mind. My heart seethed with rage, a torrent of emotions crashing against the walls of my restraint, threatening to betray the stoic facade I had carefully constructed. I wanted to scream, to shake her out of this misguided belief. Hestia, my little sister, stared back at me. Her innocence tainted by the cruel hands of someone who had twisted the meaning of love into something unrecognizable. She couldn't differentiate the painfully obvious truth, the clear distinction between love and control, kindness and cruelty. It was as if the very essence of her spirit was being suffocated, just as her breath had been. ── ─ ┈┈┈┄┄╌╌ [⚠️ Chapter 41+ are paid content via Ko-fi ⚠️] ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This story contains sensitive and potentially distressing themes, including abuse, sexual assault, rape, psychological trauma, and mature content.

___________________________ "Why are you here?" ". . . I don't know." ___________________________ [IN THE EDITING PROCESS] Echo Lightwood is a girl who is sheltered and doesn't like to show her emotions. Magnus Bane is a guy who loves to express his emotions and isn't afraid to get what he wants. Will these two somehow find a way to understand each other? Or will a certain person's loyalty get the best of them? Ik this description sucks but I promise the writing is good. I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THESE CHARACTERS EXCEPT ECHO LIGHTWOOD, HER STORY, AND SOPHIE

"My name is Magnus," he introduced himself, gold eyes shining. "Magnus Lightwood." "I didn't know Maryse and Robert had another kid," Alec said, much more sharply than intended. "Adopted," he amended, shrugging one shoulder. "My parents-died. Years ago." Alexander is your average High Warlock of Brooklyn, but what is he to do when he meets an infuriatingly beautiful Shadowhunter with a clouded past, who lives with the family that kicked him out over a dozen years ago? Nothing at all--because Alexander certainly isn't gay, and absolutely not for a Shadowhunter. He has more important things to do.

Arrowpaw (Alec) has just become an apprentice of HunterClan. Along with his siblings Goldenpaw(Jace) and Nightpaw(Izzy) they must uncover secrets of the past that have been hidden by the Clans. Darkness is headed to the Clans in the form of someone the Clans thought to be long gone. Some new friends will be made and Arrowpaw will learn what it truly means to be a warrior. Meanwhile Clary has been having dreams. She yearns for something more and she thinks she might find it in the forest. Her mother would never agree and neither would her friend Simon, but together Clary and Simon will go into the forest and learn secrets Clary never knew existed, all the while finding her own place in the world. The first installment of Shadowhunters as Warrior Cats. This book will follow somewhat the first Warriors book Into the Wild and the first book in the TMI series City of Bones. Also there will be a few other differences that you will see as the book moves forward. I am a fan of Malec, Clace and Sizzy so I will be trying to incorporate these ships into the book. Please understand that this is the first book that I am writing on Wattpad so don't be too harsh if there are some mistakes. I do not own Shadowhunters or Warriors and I hope everyone enjoys! Also, photos I post on here will not be mine either, just wanted to get that out of the way. Credit to whoever made them.

"Hate is a powerful word..." Alexander Salvatore; youngest brother to Stefan and Damon Salvatore. He isn't talked about much and when he is, it's in hushed whispers. The boy isn't like his brothers. He's mean, cruel, and merciless. He doesn't let anyone get in his way... Except for when it comes down to Niklaus Mikaelson. They have a past together but it wasn't for the best. Much like Katherine, Alex has been running from the Original for a while and doesn't plan on crossing paths with the man any time soon. That would all come crashing down when he found himself back in Mystic Falls to help Damon "release" Katherine from the tomb... Niklaus Mikaelson x Male Oc *SLOW BURN* The Vampire Diaries / The Originals / Legacies Start: 12/05/2022 End: ???

Her eyes gleamed gold, as if they held a secret no one could guess. His brown irises seemed to say the same-this wasn't over yet. Something waited in the darkness that surrounded them. Something that wouldn't let them rest. But they had no doubts-as long as they were together, they would face even what lay hidden in the deepest shadows.
