When a murder shakes her tiny village, Alera will discover a horrifying link between the scars on her arms and the werewolves and vampires that stalk her home. ***** Nineteen-year-old Alera has grown up in the village of Adaymos, listening to stories about the monsters that live in the forest that surround her home. Labelled an outcast because of the scars on her arm, she's an easy scapegoat after one of the villagers is found murdered, but when newcomer Will is framed instead she's forced to question everything she knows about the mysterious outsider. Could he really be the killer? Or is he hiding more about the werewolves and vampires that live in the forest -- and the truth behind Alera's scars -- than he lets on?

Damian was raised to never feel affection for others. Raven was raised to supress every emotion she felt. When they grow closer, trouble starts. (Damian is 16 when the book starts, Raven is 17)

Jasmine always knew that she would die sooner or later. Having been born with epilepsy and HIV from birth, she knew that her days were numbered. On some days, she begged for death to take her, but now.......she regretted it all. As she fell off the cliff and into the waves, she welcomed death like a long lost friend. All her hopes and dreams flashed across her eyes and her mind, but she knew that she will never get to experience them. Closing her eyes once more, she allowed two words to leave her mouth..... and then she took her last breath and crashed into the awaiting water. All of this was being carefully watched by a hidden being, and it decided that this girl didn't deserve to die. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Jasmine slowly opened her eyes only to see that she was somewhere entirely different than heaven because she was----alive, breathing. How is this possible, she didn't know. Figuring she has been giving a second shot at life, she decided not to waste it. This is a land of magic, evil, power, kings, queens, magical beings.......

Damian had just gotten kidnapped by his grandfather, Slade/Deathstroke. The reason for all this is because of their new team mate, Terra. Apparently she had been working for Slade just to gain the teams trust then kill them. And the next victim is..... Raven.

In all his life, Damian had thought that he was the only person who had a hard life. Being brought up by the League of Assassins, then his mother dying then finding his father and then being sent to the team Titans. He was to be a Demon head. Little did he know that someone on his team shared the same fate and the more things he went through with her, the more closer he grew to her. She was to be a Demon.

Raven and all the other members of the Teen Titans were all living their normal lives. Well...as normal as you can call a couple superheroes who stop crime daily. ________________________________________________________ This all changes when Raven was kidnapped by the Joker. For 5 and a half months she was beaten, tortured, killed, broken, etc. This painstaking has made Damian, the teams Robin, realize his true feelings for the said girl. And vice versa. Maybe this journey was all that was needed to give them the little extra push towards their feelings for one another.
