***Featured Story in 2017*** "Without Balance Lies Only Chaos." ______________________________________________ Every two hundred years, since the beginning when Earth finally evolved into a planet of life in our universe, there was a selected few who were granted the responsibility of wielding the remarkable power of the four famously known elements. Fire: Element of Determination and Strong Will. Earth: Element of Logic and Realism. Air: Element of Intellect and Freedom. Water: Element of Emotion and Compassion. In addition to the four main elements were two more rarer ones: Light and Darkness. Light being the element of the Day and its purity whereas Darkness is deemed as the element of Night and its wickedness. However in due time the generations gradually became flawed, hurtling into world of unbalance. Darkness had unhinged, rising, growing vengeful against her own and none other then the next reincarnation of elements were needed to stop her. Unexpectedly, they were teenagers. |HUMOR| FANTASY| MAGIC| Constructive criticism is very much welcomed.

Granted, he was kind of a jerk and if he ever tried to kiss Eli again he was definitely getting punched.

Portland Storm captain Eric "Zee" Zellinger knows how to get the job done, but leading his once elite team to victory is fast becoming a losing battle.

Still in a downward spiral after a life-altering event in college, Dana Campbell is desperate to try anything to break away from the horror of that fateful night-even enlisting the help of the only man she trusts completely.

THANK YOU, Wattpad, for the HQ Love Watty Award! Concept: A mysterious young woman flees from her troubled past only to discover it is impossible to escape THE SECRET that haunts her. *PLEASE NOTE: This story was originally inspired by the movie "Sleeping With the Enemy". * * * * * "I would never, Steven," she promised, turning away from him in an attempt to protect herself. "I know you wouldn't," he screamed. Cupping her chin in his hand, he forced her to look at him. "Because I would kill you." His words hung heavy in the air. Sarah's heart sank into her stomach. No matter how many times she'd heard the menacing phrase, she could never get used to it. It had the same affect on her as the first time he'd thrown the ugly words in her face. The familiar sting of bile rose in her throat, and she knew she would deplete the contents of her stomach once she was locked in the safety of their master bath. 'If I make it through this time,' she agonized. Her biggest fear was that one day he would really lose his temper with her. Who knew what would happen then? *This story is an unedited first draft. Top Ranks: Action #1, Mystery and Thriller #1 *This story contains scenes of abuse and may be disturbing to some readers. While the characters are fictional, domestic violence is a serious issue that many people across the world face. If you or someone you know is the victim of abuse, please seek help immediately.
