Emmett Cullen's sister Elsa has always been a troublemaker - and the Cullens love her for it. Turned not long after Emmett, she developed a rare and dangerous gift: She control the weather. Storms answer her instinctively. Lightning bends to her will. She knows exactly how much damage she's capable of and chooses not to stay long enough to see the aftermath. Elsa drifts in and out of the Cullens' lives, appearing without warning and leaving just as abruptly. When she's around, the house is louder, the skies darker, and Carlisle's patience tested. Most of the time, she prefers the freedom of the outside world of cities, bars, excess, and chaos, using alcohol and adrenaline to keep herself from settling anywhere too long. Despite her absence, the Cullens never stop claiming her as theirs. They cover for her. Protect her. Love her without conditions. When news reaches her that the Volturi are moving against her family, she returns to Forks without hesitation. For the first time in years, Elsa stays, standing with the Cullens as witnesses gather and tensions rise. Among the assembled covens, someone takes a particular interest in her, drawn not just to her power, but to the careful restraint beneath the chaos. As the threat of war looms, she's forced to decide whether she'll disappear again once the danger passes... or finally stop running from the family that has always been waiting for her.

»ʙᴜᴛ ɪ ᴡɪʟʟ ᴀʟᴡᴀʏꜱ ʙᴇ ᴊᴜꜱᴛ ʏᴏᴜʀ ꜱᴇᴄᴏɴᴅ ᴄʜᴏɪᴄᴇ« River never had an easy life. Her family was broken, her home nothing more than empty walls. That was until Jacob Black came along, and she fell headfirst in love with him. For one perfect year, her life felt whole. Then Bella Swan returned to Forks. Jacob changed. Every word, every thought revolved around Bella, until he broke River's heart for the chance to be with her. Left behind and shattered, River vanished from his life. Three months later, she sees him again and everything shifts. Jacob is taller, broader, his hair cut short, running with Sam Uley's inner circle. He's different in ways she doesn't understand. But the moment their eyes meet, something snaps into place. Suddenly he looks at her like she's the only thing that exists, like leaving her was never truly a choice at all. But how could she ever trust him again? After he left her behind. After he reopened the darkness she'd fought so hard to escape.

Everyone in Forks expected Bella Swan's arrival to be the big news-no one saw Aria coming. Aria Swan, Bella's younger half-sister, is a whirlwind of emotions, sarcasm, and spontaneous decisions. After being expelled from yet another school, she's sent to Forks to live with Charlie and start over. But Aria doesn't do "quiet," and she certainly doesn't do "normal." Then she meets Dr. Carlisle Cullen-calm, composed, and impossibly kind. He's everything she's not... and everything she can't stop thinking about. For Carlisle, Aria is like a fire he didn't know he'd been cold without-reckless, bright, and achingly human. As Aria stumbles deeper into the secrets of Forks and the supernatural world, her chaotic energy both disrupts and captivates the centuries-old vampire. But falling for her would mean risking everything he's built-including the safety of his family. In a town where danger is always one heartbeat away, can a love between a storm and a statue survive?

Athena Rossi; a drug addict, a mafia queen, a lost family member, an abused girl, a shy girl, ... There are a thousand names to describe her but one thing is for sure, she's fucked up in the head. I'm that girl and here is my story.....

I used to believe monsters lived under the bed. Now I know better. They wear human skin. The chains bite into my wrists again as I try to squirm, but I don't cry anymore. Crying makes it worse. Crying makes me weak. That's what he says, anyway. "Big girls don't cry," he sneers, dragging the blade slowly across my stomach. "You're not a baby anymore, are you?" I try to be silent. I try to be still. But the pain makes my body twitch. The blood trickles like warm tears down my ribs. I squeeze my eyes shut and pray for the darkness to swallow me whole. It doesn't. I wish I could remember my mother's voice. My father's face. My brothers- Were they even real? Or just dreams I invented to survive? Time doesn't exist here. Only pain. And him. He says my name like it's a curse: Alessia. He tells me pain is my teacher. That fear will become my friend. That one day, I'll thank him for turning me into something more than a girl. He's wrong. I'm not more than a girl. I'm something else entirely. Because one day, I stop praying for the pain to end. I start learning from it. One day, I take the knife from his hand. One day, he bleeds. That's the day I stop being Alessia, the little girl. And I become something far worse.

When Mathilda was twelfe, her world fell apart. A tragic car accident stole her father, her mother drowned her grief in alcohol, and her brothers slowly drifted away-reduced to rare phone calls every few months, if at all. Now, with their mother's death forcing them back into each other's lives, the siblings are faced with the fragile possibility of rebuilding what was lost. But wounds this deep don't heal easily. And Mathilda must decide whether some bonds are worth forgiving-or whether the past will keep them forever broken.

Revenge. I'm familiar with it. You have to be when you're the firstborn son of a notorious mafia leader. Death and vengeance have been the very foundations of my life. So who in their fucking mind would be stupid enough to cross me? My brother and I have been wrongfully convicted of a crime we didn't commit. We know who is behind this. We bid our time behind bars, planned and prepared for the day we got out. Now we're free and hungry for redemption. I know what must be done. I know whose blood will be spilled. But before I go after him, I'll go after his daughter. I never said I play fair. *Book one in the Marino Brothers Duet. Rated 18+ due to explicit language, sex, and violence.*
