Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine. - Anthony J. D'Angelo Life has never been easy or simple for Ellie. She was born deformed, the outcast of her pack, abused and shunned. She spends her life running from the negativity and the darkness, trying to find her happiness. All she wants is peace and joy, but what is she supposed to do when rejection, sorrow and frustration is all she ever seems to be capable of finding? Maybe not everyone deserves to be happy, but where did she go wrong? What could she have possibly done to deserve such torture? This story is only half edited and kind of a mess in my opinion! There will be plot-holes and mistakes! If you see any feel free to point them out and I'll fix it up during editing. This was my first ever story so it needs some help lol Just a few of my favorite comments: Loved it? It turned into my life!!! Ellie's stab made me feel pain in my chest as well. You weren't kidding when you said the story wasn't that predictable. Honestly, whenever a new twist came, I'd say it was familiar(because the sudden situation Ellie would find herself into is) but it still caught me very much off guard nonetheless. You had a knack for making me invested in one paragraph therefore surprising me in the next. I loved that. the thrill, the suspense, the shock and pain. And because you made it first person pov, the reader could relate or maybe even see themselves in Ellie's life. I am looking forward for the sequel. I'm proud to say i read this book and was here before it became 1M+ reads. 100/10 score👏 you[author] deserve it. This needs to be read by many. - @JRDRRS WHAT. A. PLOT. TWIST. fricken genius - @xsapphira 😭😭😭8 literally cried and sobbed I don't think I have ever done that before in a book its always just silent tears...... This book is truly amazing - @daedalian9 You sure know how to keep someone hooked. It was a crazy ride.- @Inumidun700

Long ago in the Korean kingdom of Joseon, a long-time rivalry between two young noblemen leads to a plot for revenge. Unfortunately for Young Min, the nobleman being revenged upon, this only leads to being terribly misunderstood and cursed with a crippling affliction. It isn't his best day. When his curse only worsens, Young Min sets off to find a cure in the next town over. A mountain stands between him and his destination, and the path is rumored to be haunted--though the travelers themselves might be more dangerous than the spirits. Along the way, Young Min gets caught up in a mystery involving a crossdressing girl, ghost-fearing musicians, and a horde of belligerent robbers. Everywhere he turns, there seems to be something else blocking him from getting to his destination and finding a cure, especially after the mountain's nine-tailed fox is forced out of hiding. She doesn't like helping people, and she's not happy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2016 Wattpad Featured story Fantasy #128 (5/5/15) Historical Fiction #68 (7/15/14)

Don't show fear. Don't attract attention. Don't forget who the monsters are. Those are seventeen-year-old Janneke's three rules to surviving in the Permafrost. Her family is dead, her village burned to the ground, and now she's a slave in a court of merciless goblins. Though her master, Soren, offers her a small sphere of protection, it comes at the cost of abandoning humanity and their ways for good. When the Goblin King is defeated in a fight, it ignites an ancient competition to become the next King. The goal is simple: kill the sacred White Stag before the other goblins kill you. Soren sees it as the perfect opportunity to shape Janneke's acceptance of the goblins' way and give in to the hatred and violence festering inside of her. Janneke's only hope for survival is to outrun, outfight, and out-kill every creature in her path, all the while dealing with Soren, whose fierce desire for her to be a goblin is shadowed by his fascination for her human heart. Hunting the Stag is Janneke's best chance at revenge over those who enslaved her, but to succeed, she'll have to watch her humanity bleed out like the creatures she's sworn to kill. **CREDIT FOR THE WONDERFUL COVER GOES TO @seventhstar *** ***COMPLETED.
