Opal Mailo has a plan: climb the corporate ladder, perfect her appearance, and finally belong in the elite world of high finance. Fixing her teeth is next on her list. Dr. Apollo Merrill is the orthodontist she's paying to make it happen. He's a sunbeam in a white coat - kind, maddeningly unreadable, and far too observant. He notices the things no one else does, sees past her careful polish, and looks at her in a way that feels a little too personal. As Opal's teeth straighten, the rest of her life begins to unravel. The burnout is blinding. The pull towards Apollo is inconvenient. The "perfect" version of herself is starting to look like a stranger. Caught between who she's becoming and who she's always been, Opal begins to wonder if perfection is worth the cost - and if maybe she doesn't need to be flawless to be worthy of love.

Lisa Carter could never have imagined she'd be quietly sitting in the principal's office because her six-year-old daughter had punched someone. How was this her life?! Little did she know this would be the beginning of the next chapter of her life when she meets the new tall-dark-and-handsome principal. Too bad he seems to know nothing about how to handle children and goes way overboard on the no-tolerance policy mumbo-jumbo. How was this the guy in charge here?

ORIGINALLY Typed: [June 2018 - Dec 2021] @Copyright NOTICE: All rights reserved. It's a series of short stories of my pets and myself from as far as i can remember up until right now....... and still ongoing... (might split into two books) it's kind of like reading the chicken soup for the soul books- that was made from short stories either from people like you and me or that of an animal. COVER PGHOTO IS FROM WATTPADS OFFICAL CANVAS ~ subject to change

The players woke up on a deserted island with no memory of who they were-or who the others were. Each one wore a glowing bracelet, each one given a role: Murderer, Poisoner, Guardian, Doctor, Nurse, Neighbor, and Labeler. Millions of dollars on the line. Seven lives. Seven deaths. One chance to survive... and maybe, just maybe, find redemption.

Ren was never meant to be ordinary. Crimson eyes, sharp fangs, and an inconvenient craving for blood tend to make "blending in" a lost cause. But ordinary was never the goal-surviving, thriving, and maybe even enjoying life? That's another story. Between awkward breakfasts, hushed rumors, and a world that doesn't quite know what to make of him, Ren's doing his best to stay afloat. Unfortunately, his best tends to attract magic, monsters, and the kind of school drama that could send even the bravest student running for the hills. He'll laugh, stumble, and probably cause a bit of chaos along the way-but this isn't just about pranks or being the resident oddball. Growing up comes with sharper lessons than fangs, and Ren's about to learn how deep those teeth can cut. Because in the end, If you dont look too close, it can still be a shooting star.
