{This is the final draft/ re-write of Blood of Crimson} Hailey was just minding her own business, shopping with her friend Maddison, when his team swooped in and scooped them up. She wasn't supposed to be there. Wrong place, wrong time, so she thought. Grayson was the heir to his father's whole operation, a mafia prince who needed a princess. Maybe she was there for a reason.

"Do you really wanna believe you were sent here by accident?" Jade Etmount, the daughter of a almost-mad scientist, is one to go through the motions. After all, it was only by accident that she made the greatest discovery of the 21st century: another dimension parallel to our own, complete with superpowers. And it was by accident that she met a charming local... who immediately threw her into a plan to overthrow the government. Jade cuts a deal with him: her loyalty and fighting skills in exchange for passage home. If the unprepared Jade hopes to get home alive, she'll have to become strong in her will and learn to survive with the tragedies that inevitably await her. Diamonds are only formed and refined through intense pressure. Can Jade do the same?
