17 year old Scarlet Redmond has a secret, and that secret is the beautiful, smart, goody-goody popular girl Jacqueline Hunter. Living in Deep Wood, a rural farming town in Idaho that hasn't changed much since the 1800s, Scarlet has to keep her relationship with Hunter a secret lest they fall prey to the homophobic bullying of their classmates. One day, on her way to visit her grandmother, Scarlet meets the enigmatic social pariah known as Mara Wolf, a mysterious girl surrounded by infamy and damning rumors. Wolf doesn't seem to want to leave Scarlet alone, and there's something about her infuriating smile that makes it seem as though Wolf knows everyone's secret... even Scarlet's. **** This story was written as an entry for the @lgbtq 'Once Upon A Time' contest.

I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)

Sono trascorsi centocinquant'anni dall'ultima volta che il Governo ha dovuto affrontare una rivolta, ma a GroundTown la morsa di terrore e disperazione in cui vengono tenuti i cittadini sembra non dover avere mai fine. Natale si avvicina, ma nessuno ha voglia di festeggiare. Alexi e la sua famiglia attendono con orrore il Giorno dei Doni, durante il quale i Cercatori annunceranno pubblicamente i nomi dei sospetti ribelli che verranno imprigionati e giustiziati. Dopo aver perso suo padre, Alexi teme che il prossimo ad essere trovato possa essere suo fratello Joshua. Il loro legame, come quello con sua madre e sua sorella Rose, è stato forgiato da anni di sofferenze e da quel fuoco battagliero che li accomuna dalla nascita. Quello stesso fuoco che ha fatto condannare a morte il padre tanti anni prima. Questa Vigilia di Natale, però, accadrà qualcosa che cambierà le loro vite per sempre. Saranno costretti ad intraprendere un lungo viaggio che li condurrà in luoghi misteriosi. Molte verità verranno svelate e Alexi imparerà a conoscere meglio la sua famiglia, il suo Paese e se stessa, andando in contro al suo destino di guerriera, di ribelle. Un'inevitabile battaglia sta per avere inizio. I ribelli stanno per tornare. Protetto da Copyright © 2015, tutti i diritti sono riservati alla scrittrice Aryia90.

Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.

Magic, as you may know, is quite an extraordinary thing. But not any little bit of magic can explain this. ~*~ Hazel Potter, Rosalie Weasley, and Henry Granger don't quite understand why and where they are-they can't find the rest of the Weasleys anywhere, and they were stranded...seemingly. That is until they manage to find themselves on Privet Drive, the exact night Harry was to be picked up.
