Imprisoned in an underground laboratory his entire life, eighteen-year-old Leonardo finally escapes, entering the real world for the first time. Overwhelmed by all the new experiences, Leo finds himself struggling to fit in and survive, all the while attempting to outrun his dangerous pursuers, who wish to recapture their very valuable experiment. As he attempts to disguise his genetically engineered mutations - including a deadly set of claws and elongated canines - Leo finds himself falling in love for the first time, as a sweet, selfless high school senior named Arabelle takes him under her wing, unaware of the danger she's just gotten herself involved in.

"what're you doing?" "it's a pinkie promise" Aloura laughed lightly, grabbing his bruised hand and prying his pinkie from his locked fists. Her heart almost dropping at the sight of a small tattoo on his forearm. Evil incised into his skin, with two horns resting above the words. She stared at it for a moment, before shaking her thoughts away. "Now what?" he raises and eyebrow as his eyes lock with Aloura's. "You wrap it around mine" Aloura's gaze fell back onto their hands. Elias continued to watch her, and Aloura could feel her hands tremble from the nerves. His gaze almost burnt her, but she refused to meet it. "Just like that" she grins, gesturing to their now locked pinkies. "Now the promise is sealed in." Aloura's voice begins to falter. Elias' eyes fall to Aloura's lips. She licks them, and his eyes darken. Although they'd already kissed, Aloura found her knees beginning to weaken, and the oxygen around them no longer enough for two. Aloura's eyes flicker between Elias' and they stay like that for a moment, both too scared to be the first who pulls away. "That's all?" he whispers after a moment. His eyes now remaining on her lips. Aloura swallows, but nods, not trusting her voice to speak. "You can't break it" she whispers after a moment, feeling an overwhelming urge to warn him about the consequences of breaking a pinkie promise. "Or you'll lose your pinkie." A ghost of a smile tugs at his lips as he nods gently, mentally noting to not break the promise. Because who would risk their pinkie. Elias smirked after a moment before gently pressing his lips onto Aloura's slightly ajar ones. "What was that for?" Aloura whispers as he pulls away. Elias grinned, "My way of sealing a promise" Aloura laughed a little. But Aloura doesn't believe in promises. ♡ ♡ ♡ #1 in sad #pp1 in Elias #2 in Young Adult #7 in love #12 in crime #15 in sadstory #16 in romance #25 in death

Linsu Ellaine Rimes is facing a challenge. A challenge of balance. A month ago, she regained her memories from a certain life she used to live and recalls a novel book that she had read. Her past is one that of a blackmailed life. Reading books would be her one little escape to another world. The certain book that she read is actually her favorite. "I've reincarnated?!" Linsu was ecstatic about her new life, but there's one problem: Her role in the story. Of course, she found out what character she was, the villainess. It wasn't long before she would be exiled so she tried to redeem herself. Linsu was determined to live her life somewhat decently and decided to right the old Linsu's wrongs. The prince was already mad at Linsu and the heroine's whole group is already, from the start, against her. So this would be a pain in the neck. Unfortunately, her failed attempts of saying sorry was taken as sarcastic. Linsu was losing hope and beginning to accept her faith until, the almighty savior of hers appeared. The king had came and delivered Linsu's message directly to the new couple (The prince and The heroine) with flowers saying sorry. When the day came that she is to be exiled, the king still announced something. No, it wasn't the news that Linsu had thought. It was definitely unexpected. "Linsu Ellaine Rimes, you are hereby granted the title of Princess of The Crysthiel Kingdom!" What...? Isn't that... The neighboring Kingdom?!

"DONT TOUCH ME!" I shouted at him, pulling my arm away from his grip. He grabbed me by both my arms, tighter than before. He stared into my eyes, his stare was cold. "I will touch you if I want to touch you and there won't be a damn thing you'll be able to do about it. I own you. You're MINE." ~~~~~~ Coming back to visit her family from college, Kara finds out that she has been sold to the most dangerous gang leader in the state. Levi Garcia.

She is a monster, a nightmare, a killer, who dreams of an ancient battlefield and a different, brutal world where stars fall and dark blood stains the earth. Kye Merran is an Ember, one who wields fire magic. When a childhood friend shows up at his house with a strange girl who is bleeding black blood, he knows that he's getting into something he definitely shouldn't. Especially when the Dark King of Rurik, who may have much more to him than it seems, is looking to conquer another kingdom or two, preferably with a powerful, dark queen at his side. But Kye can't seem to stay away from the mysterious girl with the blood of Darkness. And Val can't stay away from Kye either, no matter how much she claims that she hates him. As Val, Kye, and their friends race to stop the Dark King and his approaching army, what they don't realize is that they are playing a part in an ancient, deadly game, a game between the light and the dark, one years in the making. But it is a game which neither of them can win, for their fates have already been determined by the desperate Gods, written in blood among the stars.

A snarled ripped through Jason's chest as he pushed me harshly up against the metal lockers, a small whimper left my lips but I just laughed weakly, nevertheless. " Say it Patty. Say it's me you like, not that stupid prick." He spat angrily, fisting my gamer shirt, my favourite shirt actually. Even though I knew he was purposely trying to hurt me but I couldn't help but get lost in his forest green eyes. I could have said that I liked him and not the new kid, Joe. But what would be the fun in that? " Bite me." I spat back. Patty Mcdonald was a geek. Not a nerd. He played all the video games, went to the conventions and wore all of the novelty shirts. And on top of all that, he was gay. Not the best sexuality choice in a small town where everyone knows everyone and most of the town is religious. Jason Davis was a jock. Not a big air headed jock. He had it all; the girls, the looks, the brains and the friends. But what happens when Patty finds out his little secret?

They couldn't be more different. Ridley is a knight in shining white armor, so perfect in every way that it makes people hardly able to stand him. Prince Vandel on the other hand (aka the evil demon prince of darkness) is the sworn enemy of the kingdom, obsessed with gaining power and wearing beautiful clothes. The two young men are right out of a fairytale, practically made to be archenemies...but what if they ended up falling in love instead?

Devoured by his need for vengeance and justice, he attracts a demon to his side, who tricks him into selling his soul to him. Jude's seductive and controlling nature quickly turns Seth's life upside down, and though the boy is strong-headed and thought himself to be dominant, he finds himself enthralled by the demon more than he would like to admit. Follow the steamy and twisted story, as the two pair up to get Seth's revenge, and fight over the control above one another.
