Many years ago, the vampires exposed themselves to the human civilization. They had believed they could live among the humans peacefully; however, after years of coexisting, one vampire loses control and kills over one-hundred humans in New York City. One by one, the vampires are hunted down and placed in a sector that is heavily guarded day and night. Whenever a vampire tries to escape, he or she is shot at first sight with a gun powerful enough to burst their body into million of pieces. Outraged with what is happening, the king of the vampires rises against the humans with the help of the king of the werewolves. Together, they conquer the earth. What is left of the human population is forced to either live in sectors--encircled by large walls--or be exterminated into extinction. Now, every year, any human from the ages of eighteen through twenty-one is chosen to go into Bevelon--the capital; the place where the wealthy supernatural beings live. When Kendra gets chosen on her eighteen birthday, she has no other option but to leave everything behind to live with her new master; a dark, dangerous man capable of ending her existence and her family's with the lift of a finger. Perhaps, living in the wealthiest place on earth isn't as bad as it appears. Inspired Obviously by The Hunger Games and my obsession with supernatural beings.

WHEN AN UNLIKELY SUITOR.... The Earl of Stokeford is hardly a man of amiable disposition and social graces. He scowls whenever he pleases, becomes rude at any time convenient for him, and worse, has a regrettable tendency to scare ladies out of their wits. Therefore, it is a most astonishing thing indeed when, upon laying eyes on the beautiful Miss Sophie Winscott, he decides to embark on a courtship... Except, of course, the hapless peer knows nothing in the matters of romance...until he receives help from an unlikely quarter. MEETS AN EAGER MATCHMAKER Then enter Miss Winscott's cousin, the vivacious Caroline Davis, who oddly gets along well with the slightly waspish Earl. Determined to help, Caroline endeavours to make a match of the two. But for all her enthusiasm, she can't help but be drawn to the troubled lord... and things start to get a little tangled from there.

note: this was written by my thirteen year old self highest -- #177 in Science Fiction // From Awkward Stars: "Idiots, how did we loose a sixteen year old in a glass room?!" a voice silences them all. I slip out of my corner and into the now empty hallway, shutting the doors behind me. I race as fast as I can away from that interrogation room and tears stream down my face. I've tried so hard to be good. I've tried so hard to fit in. What have I done to deserve this? Lost in thought, I can't look where I'm going. My face connects with a human-feeling thing. "Emma?" Tyler asks and states. I look up into his cold eyes. "You?" I push past him, slamming my shoulder on his. Pain spikes through me, but all I can think about is getting out of here. There are black dots in my vision. I hear yells and calls after me, but they are faded. I burst through the first door I find. A mob of people await me, but they aren't about to arrest me. I collapse into the nearest persons chest. "Get her back to headquarters." xxx UPDATED EVERY SINGLE MONDAY FOR #AWKWARDMONDAYS
