Haunted. Terrified. Alone. Those three words seem to be the only emotions that seventeen year old Gabriel Adams knows how to feel. At the age of thirteen, when other boys were chasing after pretty girls and playing in the dirt, Gabriel had been kidnapped and molested. Now, several years later, Gabriel still can't return to the normal life he'd lived before the Incident. He's terrified of the dark, and even the daytime gives him anxiety attacks. Gabriel hates being touched. A simple brush against him will set him off into spasms while panic quickly takes over his mind. It seems as if nothing will relieve Gabriel from the constricting, painful claws of the man who'd done him harm, and Gabriel is becoming desperate. That's when Evan Ricci steps in. Evan, a stubborn yet surprisingly selfless teenager, moves to the small, quiet town of Clydesdale Heights. When Evan sees a small, awkward blond haired boy carrying pop boxes across the street while he's bringing moving boxes into the new house, he decides to help him. Things don't go exactly as planned, though, and their relationship begins with a rather rough start. The two eventually learn to bond, and Evan helps Gabriel learn to deal with the psychological consequences of being molested, which eventually blooms into an understanding so deep they can't imagine themselves with anyone but the other. A hint of infatuation sparks up, but not quite yet will the love blossom out like most. Their love will take time. And lots of patience and persistence, too.

***** Words that I didn’t even know I knew began to bubble from my chest like a mantra, over and over again as I carefully cradled Danny to me. The scarf that he was wearing, the same color as his eyes, was moved aside to expose pale flesh. I pressed a kiss to it, and Danny whimpered. “Kieran! What are you doing!?” My father’s voice. The alpha. I looked up, slightly impatient, as he and a few of the other pack leaders quickly approached. It broke the mantra, but not for long. Nothing would stop me from doing this, not even my own blood. Especially when there was a tinge of fear in my leader’s voice. “Saving him.” And then I bit him. ***** Nothing in life goes as planned. It's a fact that Kieran Night and Danny Samuels know well. One has just lost everything he knew and moved across the country, and the other is an heir trying to get ready for a war. They figure that nothing else can shake them. And then they meet each other.

"Hello!" Quickly, I nodded my head in response. "I'm Shane. What's your name?" He asked, looking at me expectantly. I turned to walk away but he grabbed my arm and pulled me back.

'They say that power lurks in the most unexpected places. Some girls, like Charlie Frey, are full to the brim with it, and it's obvious to everyone who passes them by. Others, like me, have a hidden light, and it may take a challenge to bring it to the surface.' "I don't believe you, so you don't have to lie, Amara." Her voice is soft and I tilt my head up to look her in the eyes. "Oh yeah? Why is that then?" My voice is shakier than I wanted and I groan to myself at how young I sound. Instead of a fierce, challenging teenager, I am acting like a toddler, too scared to walk anywhere alone. "And can you back up?" I raise an eyebrow as she frowns, trying to look mysterious. A small smile slips onto my face. I know it's not supposed to be funny, but it is. She takes one more step forward, and I freeze completely, knowing that any sudden moment will bring us together. Her head is bent over my ear and I find myself leaning in, needing to know what she will say. "I was at the dance too." GirlxGirl This is a story about magic, self-discovery, and mischief.
