Amelia emerges from the fragments of her shattered reality, propelled from the comforts of her life into bloodshed and mystery that awaits to sink its teeth into her; draining her dry. The quiet wolf attached to her quickly becomes not only a lover but also her saving grace. *** Lycanthropes revealed their existence in the hopes for a tranquil life among humans in the early stages of the earth's life. Most humans have claimed to have witnessed the transformation of said creature, the being shifting when the moon rose full and large, then appearing human once daylight broke over the horizon. Blindly, humans act on irrational fear, the revolution bringing forth the inner veils of all creatures alike. They drowned in their terror of what these monsters were capable of- unbeknownst to them the power they possessed from the moon. Blood began to taint the grim hands of humans, their slaughter an attempt to reclaim their order. At that moment, the seed of a century-year war was then planted. It grew taller with each drop of hatred, enticing its growth. The fight between beast and man waged on for years, with death, loss, and bloodshed coating the timeline of history. Eventually, it all became unbearable as all forms of leaders banded together to end the forsaken crisis; but not without a price. Centuries passed with the agreement complied and followed by all who knew of its creation, as time elapsed, the knowledge of its existence was slowly forgotten by humans: never to be spoken of- until it was broken. _______ copyright © 2017-2018 by J.L Weaver all rights reserved ®

Highest Ranking #13 ( in Paranormal ) WINNER of The Raven Awards The Mystical Awards The Blooming Awards The Wattpad Oscar Awards Something lurks in the basement of the Thompson House; something dark, something sinister, something diabolical. Something hidden not only from the curious folks of Merquell but also from the sole proprietor of the Thompson House, Julian Thompson or, as you may call him now, Jonathan Benedict himself. Something so powerful and malicious, its evil aura attracts every foul thing that walks the earth. Yet it stays hidden for it's protected by some powerful spells casted by Jonathan's ancestors. And it must stay, at all costs, hidden. For if it falls in the wrong hands, it will cast a spell of darkness all over the world. Such tremendous chaos will be unleashed that shall forever darken the existence of all. An event even dreadful and fierce than the Pralaya or the Ragnarok it shall be. For it shall summon the being whose existence is as much unknown and catastrophic as the Object's. Some know him as Satan, some call him Lucifer. He may be a demon, a fallen angel as the Divine says. It matters not. For even if he is a God of his own realm, his rising must at all costs be averted. Unaware and ignorant of the Object and veiled in his own cloak of misery, Jonathan knows not of any of this. For him what only matters is revenge. Revenge to soothe the boiling blood in his veins, to soothe his scorched soul. His only purpose left is to murder the killer of his wife. And even though he's succeeded in his revenge, he's still haunted. Haunted by the memories of his past, realization of his loss, and the screams of his wife he is. But pity not, for Jonathan is someone as sinister as his fate sounds. He's a man of a thousand lies, a thousand faces and a million sins. XXX Did I mention the tale is set in the Victorian period?

We are not the broken clichés you want us to be anymore. We have transcended beyond the "Good Girl ~ Bad Boy" boxes they tried to put us in. We are so far beyond all that now, that we are finally free of all those stereotypes. The story of us is not the usual cliche "good girl" meets "bad boy" that instantly fall in love. Oh, and after a few almost funny mishaps everything works out perfectly story. Or the other one where the brooding bad boy with a tragic past gets a second chance to become a happy, well-adjusted person again. All thanks to the love of an awesomely perfect popularity princess with a pure heart of gold. Who sees "something special" inside him, that no one else can see ...and sets him on a straight path. All that once in a lifetime fairy dust love, that only exists for perfect pretty popularity princesses in the happily ever after. No, this is the other kind of love story ...the messy kind, that messes peoples lives up irrevocably, for all time. The real kind of love story, that comes hand in hand with hopes and fears, and all that real hurt that burns at your heart. So while our Crazy love might not be as bright and shiny as that fairy dust love is ...our love will kick your loves ass any day of the week, and twice on Sunday. Because our love knows the secret truth about itself. That it's not about how perfectly you fall in love, it's how you get the back up after love kicks your ass sideways, and you come back looking for more. Because our love is that Crazy kind of love, that is so forever you have to fight for it 'till the bitter end ...or die trying. The kind of love that comes with beer, pizza, football and a hell of a lot of laughs ...but mostly at everyone else's expense. ~First Place Chicklit - 2017 Blue Rose Award~ ~ Second Place for Teen Fiction - The Star Blazer Awards 2018~ ~ Honorable Mention for Best Plot - 2017 Royalty Awards ~
