The story of the girls from the underside of New Orleans. The good, the bad and the worse. Different tales from different girls, that all led to the same place. Some portions of this are based on truth and some on fiction or second-hand accounts. But it's definitely real enough to let readers know what happens behind the false glamour and glitter of Bourbon Street. Yet there is always hope for these slowly wilting Flowers, the hope they will once again bloom - fresh, strong and gloriously anew.

Proud and elegant even in the face of death, she escapes the guillotine only to become a powerful immortal with abilities she herself does not yet understand.

Nearly 250 years later, Eleni is a wealthy and alluring immortal who finds solace in her own power, but can never forget the past In mourning for her 15th mate, she seeks refuge from scandal in a small town on the Louisiana bayou. With a constant population of 8,999 souls and rumoured to be a haunted town able to disappear at will, Aubrey Parish is a place of rebirth and second chances. Eleni learns to rebuild her life in a world where everyone and everything carries its own secrets, existing together under the veil of two powerful delusions: magic is a parlour trick, and everyone is human. In a world of dark fantasy and elegantly woven webs of deception, the truth may be the most powerful enemy. When will it be unearthed, and what price will Eleni pay? ****************** This is a completed first draft. Edits and changes will be made on a consistent basis.

When an unknown force begins assassinating the superheroes, the villains rejoice; until it comes for them. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ "Let me get this right. You," he said pointing at Bane. "can release venom from your fingertips, and have a snake as a pet. You," he turned to Ryoko. "have a saber toothed tiger and don't get affected by fire. You," he turned to Hades. "can literally make the dead, dance. And it is crazy if I believe that the robots are wearing our loved ones' skins to fool us?" he asked with his hands in the air. "You are all nuts. Xavier out." ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Skye Atkins and her pet snake, Basilisk, lived their entire life hiding from the heroes of the world. Even though she was considered as one of the most powerful villains, she did everything she could to avoid meeting a hero. When the man who killed her family was assassinated, she finally believed that she would live a free life. But not long after the news did she find out that the force that was killing the heroes wasn't on her side either. When war seemed inevitable, the remaining handful of villains and heroes realised that if they wanted to survive, they had to unite into a single force...for the first time ever. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ (*𝐅𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐩𝐚𝐝 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐞!*)
