{Book Two in the Red Series} Rosemary returned to England to find things just how she left them - her father and brother missing and her mother drinking in her bedroom. But Rosemary wasn't going to give up this time. She took charge of her family as the Pevensies took charge of a country. But it's been a year since all five of them returned to England, and when they are called back by Susan's magic horn, they return to a completely different Narnia. Magic has been dormant for centuries and men now rule Narnia but with brute force and terror. The Pevensies know why they've been called back to Narnia but Rosemary is once again left in the dark. And with Aslan making himself sparse, the five kids are left to their own devices to answer their own questions. Do they trust the exiled prince? Can they save Narnia again, and this time without Aslan swooping in to save them? And in Rosemary's case, why was she called back?

{Book One in the Red Series} With World War Two ravaging the world, no one is safe and no one is happy. Despite their protests, Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie are evacuated from London and sent to live in the English countryside with an old professor. Scared and unhappy, only the youngest Pevensie child remains optimistic and ends up sharing her hope with her siblings in the form of a wardrobe that takes them to Narnia, a different world where they are the only form of hope to bring an end to an evil witch's reign of terror. Rosemary Bennett has no more hope left in her heart. Her brother and father are off fighting for their country, the former having gone missing months ago, and her mother ignores her, preferring the company of a bottle over her own daughter. Giving up seems the only logical plan of action. But when it finally comes to carrying it out, she's transported to a different world, with talking animals and a prophecy that doesn't involve her. Unsure as to why she is there, she must navigate a new world and ponder the possibility that maybe - just maybe - she doesn't actually want to die. - *Warning: this book deals with depression and suicide. Though mental illness isn't what this story revolves around, the act of suicide and depressive thoughts are intertwined with the plot and act as 'backseat drivers' to the novel.

"𝒘𝒆𝒂𝒓 𝒂 𝒔𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒆 𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒆 𝒊𝒕'𝒔 𝒄𝒂𝒎𝒐𝒇𝒍𝒂𝒖𝒈𝒆" ~ 𝑩𝑬𝑻𝑻𝑬𝑹 𝑶𝑩𝑳𝑰𝑽𝑰𝑨𝑵 𝑪𝑶𝑴𝑴𝑼𝑵𝑰𝑻𝒀 𝑪𝑬𝑵𝑻𝑬𝑹 1. Eleanora Marks didn't know she was a witch. She didn't know that she shared blood with one of the darkest wizarding families the magical world had known, and she most certainly didn't know what she was getting into when she decided to talk to the handsome red-haired prefect in her house when she got to Hogwarts. 2. Bill Weasley is just trying to get out of Hogwarts. He has a set group of friends, his little siblings to look out for, and a great girlfriend, but it's not enough. What Bill wants is adventure, and the last place he expects to find it is with the strange new girl in Gryffindor with the tumultuous home life and a tendency to get around the rules with endless charm and more than a bit of luck. 3. To him, Eleanora is just the funny kid who stays at his parents' house for the summers and to her, Bill is just her best friends' kind older brother, but as they grow older, it becomes more apparent that they are meant to have bigger roles in each other's lives than just this. author note: I understand concerns about the age gap and I promise absolutely nothing even remotely romantic happens between them until they are both above legal age. If you want to skip to when they do start to become romantically involved, check out the second book in the series; "Love, Bill." enjoy!

Elinor was left with nothing after the Second Wizarding War. She was just another fighter, another witch, some alumni who battled darkness and won but lost to the glorious shadow of Harry Potter. Not a worthy acknowledgement was left to paint her dull name; not even her dead friends' names. So, she broke her wand in two and vowed to never associate herself with magic again. But Elinor had to learn through George Weasley that you can't run away from who you really are, and George from Elinor to know the true meaning of love and family.

The world had gone to hell long ago, taken over by the vampire race. In order to keep some sort of peace in our land, the Vampire Lords made a consecutive agreement. The rich and powerful humans could survive just as they had been, untouched by the vampires save for the occasional blood collections, or so they thought In reality, we were all under their control. Castles spread out throughout our land, one landing in each city. Each castle varied in the number of vampires residing there, but all of them carried a Lord. The Lords were the ones in charge in every city, whether we liked it or not. The vampires often roam through the city, making sure that everyone was in order and no one stepped out of line. If you stepped out of line, you died, end of story. Even if the rich were still under their control, their lives were still better than the poor. The poorest lives held a much worse fate. The men were to be put to work as slaves, whether that meant serving a specific vampire, or just building their castles, they were slaves. The women were to be pets. Pets were the lowest rank you could have. They were forced into cages that were too small to stand in with collars around their necks. They spent their lives in pet shops, just waiting for the dreadful day that they'll be bought. They were treated like animals, trained into what their master wanted, and punished if they misbehaved. Those who were lucky enough to live through that, we're to be slaughtered for their blood at age twenty-five in an act to make sure that our population would stay steady. I was born into this world. Born into this world full of blood-sucking monsters. Except, I was one of the lucky ones. Was. It all ended for me when I was 12, when I was taken away from the last bit of hope and family that I had left. Ever since then, I've lived in a cage, just rotting away, waiting, dreading for the day that some monster would make me his. This is my life. I am a pet. ~~~ Cover by: @mshacake
