In the unused railways beneath the streets of London lives a peculiar sort of folk; the outcast; the overlooked. Valerie Glass wasn't always a Sewer Rat. She remembers the days of splendour, dinner parties and extravagant gifts. She was to be a Lady, envied for her beauty and cleverness. One night before her very eyes her future unravels. Her mother is murdered by wildling vampires, her father's body torn to pieces. It would have been her fate too had it not been for Cordelia: a vampire who still sees the beauty in humanity. Valerie escapes with Cordelia to Underlondon where they remain hidden for a decade. With no warning strange things begin to plague the city. Harlots go missing only to turn up several days later with their throats torn out, hearts missing. Thieves are found wandering the dark streets above eyes glazed over and mumbling an archaic incantation. A war is coming and a boy with eyes the colour of jade believes he is the key to Valerie's survival.

❝I know that I belong to you.❞ Pause, gulp, breathe. ❝But you belong to me too.❞ This isn't a story of finding love and falling into it. This is scratching your nails down to the edge of his spine, this is biting his lip and sucking the blood away. It's a shade of red that can't ever be wiped from your ledger. It's the story of Wolff and Woodsman. The homoerotic sub-text of Red Riding Hood (because who else is going to write it. ). Beautiful trailer by @beingellie

A dark retelling of Beauty and the Beast Annabelle Novacek has never much liked how people view her. She was a beautiful rose to be admired and protected. But she has always felt lanky and awkward; it was her two older sisters that were perfect. When her father comes home with news of a wealthy nobleman desiring her hand, the family are thrilled and she is whisked off to a small town outside of Paris. The journey doesn't go as anticipated and their carriage is attacked. Annabelle only just escapes with her life but she is flung out to desperately search for any sign of life. The local nobleman takes her in, but the longer she stays the more she hears about the dark secrets the village holds; a ravage beast that roams the forest and lies in wait for its next victim. Beauty fades but true kindness lasts an eternity. - - - - - - - - - - - - - Cover by @Forcade

I was supposed to be good at my job. 'Supposed to be' being the key words here. Instead I got caught, and therefor I had to live with the most infuriating man. Unfortunately this man intrigued me to no end, and I wanted to get to know him. The only way I knew how to, was to seduce him. So I did. If only I'd known the consequences of letting a man truly fall for you... 18+ __________________________________________________________ Warning! Personally I think this started of well. I liked the idea at the beginning and then I got a little lost and tired. Basically, I don't like at least 2/3 of this story. So don't tell me how crappy it is, because I know. Trust me. There's a lot of mistakes, a bunch of illogic events and an abrupt ending. Read at your own risk and strictly for fun. Don't expect a literary masterpiece. I believe my other (current) works (in development) are much better. I just don't have a lot of time to show you.
