In the unused railways beneath the streets of London lives a peculiar sort of folk; the outcast; the overlooked. Valerie Glass wasn't always a Sewer Rat. She remembers the days of splendour, dinner parties and extravagant gifts. She was to be a Lady, envied for her beauty and cleverness. One night before her very eyes her future unravels. Her mother is murdered by wildling vampires, her father's body torn to pieces. It would have been her fate too had it not been for Cordelia: a vampire who still sees the beauty in humanity. Valerie escapes with Cordelia to Underlondon where they remain hidden for a decade. With no warning strange things begin to plague the city. Harlots go missing only to turn up several days later with their throats torn out, hearts missing. Thieves are found wandering the dark streets above eyes glazed over and mumbling an archaic incantation. A war is coming and a boy with eyes the colour of jade believes he is the key to Valerie's survival.

Everyone dreams of being different from the rest of the world, of being a hero or a leader. It's different when it's true. Nathan Traize has been on his own his whole life, at least for all that he remembers. He doesn't remember his parents or life before the marks. But when the past finds him, his world starts to fall into place. With powers he'd never imagined possible and a conspiracy that could cost him his life and those of his new found friends, Nathan races to save the people who can tell him about his past and stop those that plan to take his future.

"I think we should jump." "Are you on crack?" "Was that a rhetorical question?" "What do you think, you imbecile?" "You kissed this imbecile." --- Katherine "Kylie" Smith always had a bad life but when she meets Evan Stone, her life takes a turn for the worst. Especially when she begins to fall in love with him. Love can be unfair but the trials it puts you through can be terrible. Love, death, and fear mix together and its either Ride or Die, because they might not make it out alive when Evan's past gets done with them. - This story is entered into the Beginner's Luck Award for #Wattys2014 and I hope you like it.

"She's a witch, I'm a mirror child. We're one Cullen short of a Saturday Night Live sketch." Dead people are popping up in Emerson Quinn's mirrors, and when that isn't the strangest part of a girl's day something has to be done. Her mother's in jail, her godmother's a witch; and she learns of a twin brother she never knew she had. Oh, and Emerson herself is a newly-fledged member of the Speculos - a secret society that keeps balance between the human and the unnaturals. Something is definitely a secret when even a girl's know-it-all witch of a godmother --literally, not figuratively-- doesn't know much of anything. Now Emerson must save her brother. It will be the race of her life - but she's only just realized there's no track. *Many kudos to @DrBoots for the lovely cover. She's wonderful!*

Alexis I have to get out of here. If I don't, I'll start to go crazy. I'll do whatever it takes. I've been lied to before, and it hurt. It hurt so bad. But now, maybe it's my turn to lie. You do what you have to right? Zach I'm lonely. I haven't been forever, but lately I am. My dad always showed me these lame magic tricks. Now I know they weren't real, but maybe I'm wrong. Maybe magic controls everything we do. Maybe it controls everyone we meet. Why we meet them, how we meet them, how they act towards you. Now is no time to get upset about it. My dad always said magic is a way we show our emotions in an unexplainable way. He has never been so right. Expression: a diamond in the rough Meaning: someone who has great qualities, despite a hidden/rough exterior; someone obtaining great potential and heart
