She's the Omega; he's the Alpha's son. Her life's been full of pain; his has been full of parties, popularity, and potential. She's filled with shame; he's filled with pride. She's had to learn independence; he doesn't know the meaning of the word. No guy would want to be seen dead with her; he's got girls begging for his attention. She's accepted she's nothing; his ego is the size of the sun. She's the shadow; he's the light. They're from completely opposite ends of the spectrum. How can two people have both lived for the same amount of years but the outcomes be so different? And can you believe that they used to be best friends when they were younger? How will they react when they both find out that they're predestined mates? And what happens when they're forced to work together to help protect the Pack? Read 'OMEGA' to find out! This story is completed but soon to be under major construction so apologies for any plot holes/time gaps/confusion that may occur until it's finished!! The cover was made by 0LizzyBrown0 :)

The Spring Girls is a modern-day retelling of Louisa May Alcott's Little Women, telling the captivating story of four sisters desperately seeking the answer to the age-old question, what exactly does it mean to be society's version of a "woman"? The Spring Girls-Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy-are a force of nature on the New Orleans military base where they live. As different as they are, with their father on tour in Iraq and their mother hiding something, their fears are very much the same. Struggling to build lives they can be proud of and that will lift them out of their humble station in life, one year will determine all that their futures can become. The oldest, Meg, will be an officer's wife and enter military society like so many of the women she admires. If her passion-and her reputation-don't derail her. Beth, the workhorse of the family, is afraid to leave the house, is afraid she'll never figure out who she really is. Jo just wants out. Wishing she could skip to graduation, she dreams of a life in New York City and a career in journalism where she can impact the world. Nothing can stop her-not even love. And Amy, the youngest, is watching all her sisters, learning from how they handle themselves. For better or worse. With plenty of sass, romance, and drama, The Spring Girls revisits Louisa May Alcott's classic Little Women, and brings its themes of love, war, class, adolescence, and family into the language of the twenty-first century.
